I almost closed out my comment by saying that I was channeling you.

C'mon, to a Yuropeen, Ohio and California are exactly the same thing, but Scotland and England are totally different.

Now this is better commentary than that which you've been putting out of late.

Unfortunately, isn't this laziness vs. strongman similar to the ignorance vs. evil-genius dichotomy pushed forth under Bush II by his opponents?

Must be marketed toward the old geezer crowd or something.

No, you've got it exactly wrong. He's lamenting that they stopped marketing tape drives toward the old geezer crowd.

The Beretta 92fs is a dream. The 96, not so much. Much preferred is the Glock 22c. That little c actually makes a difference to me. A big difference. YMMV, and those suckers stopped making them, IIRC.

Bigotry.

How many Muslims do you know? How many are there in the world? What miniscule fraction write screeds and take up arms?

Catholicism has the bloody destruction and enslavement of the Americas on it's conquistador hands. Islam - past and present - has nothing to shade that, by way of comparison.

It is interesting to note that Ghengiz Khan was a worshiper of nature-spirit, but almost half his armies were Buddhist - His first wife was oriental Orthodox, as were a substantial minority contingent of the Mongol horde and leadership. Papal emissaries were entertained by the Khan and later his grandson Guyuk was in correspondence with the pontiff.

The "muslims" that you see and read about with violent conversion and conquest? They are created, inflated and supplied by the various trans-national agencies and alliances in Global para-politics.

Snide.

But do background on Foley and Berg. Seriously.

It ain't about foreign wars.

It's about locking up unrest at home. Those evil, ISIS guys we gave weapons? They could be your neighbors! They are able to operate anywhere, anytime! They have Mexican drug-cartels (boogey-man II) in their pocket!

You have an essentially correct perception here, embedded in the psychological noise that accompanies these perceptions.
It is difficult to maintain a "rational and sane" perspective regarding these experiences - and encountering actual Reality? Reality is accessible only from a state of being that is "crazy" to the rational.

"Quis Troglodytarum troglodytae?"

but should NEVER be part of a logical primary key.

I wouldn't say never. The odd case would be in the table held data by the minute or second or the like.

But, i share your adamant stand against it it nearly all cases.

Haggis is fucking brilliant. Meat is the only real food, and Haggis is king of the sausages.

That's RACISS!
