AD:"Paul Gosar--not to be confused with Mark Paul Gossalar from Saved By The Bell--Soft on Crime, Soft on Homeland Security, Soft on Terrorism. His own family despises him. Send him back to pulling teeth, Arizona deserves better. Paid for by WonkPAC, not affiliated with any candidate."

Or nobody can commit a crime if they haven't already committed a crime in the past. Which would mean there couldn't be a first crime, which means nobody commits crimes? It is enough to make one's brain spin.

Are all of Ex-president Turnip's Insurrectionists fucking morons, or just the majority of them?

Actually the story is some typical Politico clickbait gossip.Mediaite is just the aggregator and is usually pretty evenhanded.It's part of Dan Abrams mini-media empire.

Dick Wolf's gonna have to boot a new Law and Order spinoff "Law and Order: Dumbshit Squad", where the detectives get tips emailed in from the perp's family members, go to question them and the perp tells them proudly all the crimes they committed.

Perps are then gobsmacked that they're arrested. The Order half is just as short.

The prosecutors tell the judge "Yep he said he did it", the Defendant stands up ans says "Yes I did it" His lawyer says "I"m sorry your honor, I have a moron for a client"

Did I mention this is going to be a TiTok series? Every episode is 15 seconds or less?

My sister used to work at Colonial Williamsburg, where she had various rankings for the people who toured the buildings.1. Visitors. People who are interested in history, behave courteously, expect to stand or walk for a fair bit of time, and dress accordingly.2. Tourists. Interested in history, maybe, but get agitated at standing in line, wear stupid shoes that hurt their feet.3. Tourons. A cross between a tourist and a moron. Not interested in history, dress foolishly, and spend most of their time asking where the Busch Garden rides are.4. Touroids. A cross between a tourist and a hemorrhoid. Cut in lines, try to correct historians with fake facts, tons of sidebar conversations in the midst of presentations. Piss off all the other visitors, tourists, and tourons with their asininity.

I guess every tourist area has its own brand of mayhem.

All Federal government buildings are non-smoking (and no drinking, either), so legality has nothing to do with it. It will be ok, they can nail him for the violent trespass, so any weed charges would be superfluous.

"Fleeing suspect" falls short of the facts. The vehicle was used as a weapon. It hit an officer.

There's a prison in Alden, also. The Erie County Correctional Facility. Jail, tho', I guess, rather than prison?

Howard Wolowitz shouldn't have had that nose job. He looked so much better before.
