    This is excellent. This is exactly the type of thing that will be a very powerful piece of evidence at the trials.

    Trials? When the fascist putsch happens, and believe you me it will, you and me and Alby and El and Jason will be among those put against a wall or hung from a lamp post with a placard. They have the guns and we don’t.

    • Who is this “we”? Speak for yourself.

        You ever picked up gun? Only thing you picked up was a pencil to write a lousy restaurant review.

          Have I done a restaurant review? Maybe I’ve forgotten. Oh, you mean Al… OK. Great come back. Stellar.

          Here is a question to ponder on a Sunday evening. Who would you say is afraid of whom?

          Anonymous coward with corny jokes .. or yours truly?

          It’s a real riddle.

        • “You ever picked up gun?”

          Why don’t you come to my house and find out.

          “Only thing you picked up was a pencil to write a lousy restaurant review.”

          How quaint. Even back in 1980, newspapers had computers. But I’ll be sure to give them your name so they can take care of you first.

    They aren’t the only ones with guns, bub. Common misconception. They’re the ones that advertise and fetishize it. This is good. If the time does come they’ll be a big fucking surprise.

    And there are more of us.

    We’re close to a breaking point. After November we’ll know. I frankly don’t know which way it”ll go, but I can guarantee you this, I won’t be going out like a punk-ass bitch. That’s one thing I can absolutely assure you.

    Wait… is that KHN?

    REV, like you have ever picked up a gun. I suppose when the fascist death squads come knocking on your door, you’ll defend yourself with that killer whit of yours.

  6. RE Vanella

    I have picked up a gun. Many guns. And fired them and everything.

    I like when anonymous people come to tell me what I haven’t done. Very cool and normal.

    • Kilgore Trout

      Right REV. You keep beating your chest like a tough guy. Only gun you ever picked up was a squirt gun at Fun Land.

      • RE Vanella

        This Konnegut character is a grounded, reasonable adult. Normal American.

        I bet if we were face to race, he’d be totally friendly.

        Took the poor guy all day to come up with a kids carnival game put down. I’m crushed. Fucking truly.

    The death squads won’t come to your door with guns. They will make it illegal or uncomfortable for your employer to keep you on the payroll, then take away the social safety net. Without income or health care, you will die without a shot fired.

  8. RE Vanella

    This could also happen. True.

    Although it’s likely that, if things continues in this direction, both things will happen.

    Systemic shit like puck said and “Law Enforcement” acting as death squads (see also Fred Hampton, see also MOVE, see also Kent State, etc., etc.).

  9. puck

    What happened to Stephanie Barry will eventually happen to all who oppose the right.

  10. Puck – You’ve put your finger on an important point. The Ramone crime is the very sort of thing people look aback at and say, “Why didn’t they see it happening?”

  11. WTFFFFF

    What is Karen Hartley Nagle doing in that picture? Is that John Cartier behind her to the right?

    • Gigi

      It’s Woods.

  12. WTFFFFF

    Is it: Spadola, Arlett, Briggs-King, Dukes, Collins, Miro, Pettyjohn, Gray, Hartley-Nagle, Cartier?

    • RE Vanella

      My eyesight is poor and the photo ain’t great, but I don’t think that white wad of chewed bubble gum on the left is Spadola.

    • Figures. Woods edging Pusey was perhaps the most disappointing result of the primaries.

  13. On tbe very day that scores of women felt moved to go to Washington to protest McConnell/Trump and the bunch of criminals, it figures that KHN would visit the White House.
