"12 dead bodies. Plenty of witnesses. His home is full of weapons."
Only 2 out of 3 would be evidence of guilt.
A home full of weapons doesn't count.
Not only did the place have guns inside, it was also booby-trapped. Off the top of my head I can't imagine any reasonable justification for why somebody would rig his apartment so that a person attempting to come in would be blown to pieces, and then go away leaving the door ajar.
Actually, that was never a "prime Soviet ambition," except in the minds of the McCarthy-era US propaganda machine.
Do you really think so? Because the way I remember it, back in the 1940's Josef Stalin took advantage of the war to put puppet governments in every single territory that he could get his hands on (i.e., all of Eastern Europe). And before you even start arguing that those were not puppet governments, bear in mind that as soon as those countries were given free rein to decide their own fates, practically all of them ousted their communist regimes in a matter of months.
Fuck off, I'll take the horse. I refuse to do business with people who see me as a wallet on legs rather than as a human being, to be treated with DIGNITY and RESPECT. At least with the horse there is that mutual RESPECT.
If you believe anyone who provides a service sees you as ANYTHING other than a wallet with legs, you are wrong. The difference is, some people are afraid that the walking wallet won't come back if they don't give it an illusion of respect, so they treat it like they actually give a damn. But if they get an indication that it will never come back regardless of how well or badly it is treated, then they will lose interest and ignore it.
Well sure! How else are we supposed to fend off the street urchins?
Shotgun loaded with rock salt?
Rock salt is for pussies. Live ammo FTW!
Are you certain about that? What if NK intentionally miscalibrated their nuclear devices for a lesser, but spot-on explosive yield. And put their supposedly failed satellite into a spin or 'nonfunctional' state to mislead.their launch and space capabilities.
And as we speak, NK factories churn out MIRVed ballistic missiles in the thousands per day.
