@axtremus said in Asset Forfeiture:

In the Executive branch, Eric Holder (under Obama) curbed the practice, then Jeff Sessions (under Trump) revived all of it. Now it’s Merrick Garlands’ turn (under Biden) but he has yet to make any move on this. But, really, this should be a matter of constitutional rights and laws, not a matter of discretion in execution. So Congress and the Courts need to fix this.

You are incorrect. I don't like civil forfeiture either, but what you just wrote is pure democrat spin with absolutely no truth to be found in it. Jeff sessions didn't "revive all of it". What he did was clarify it so that innocent people could better avoid it while making it tougher on criminals.

This is why democrats can't be trusted. They're a bunch of liars.

Is there a British term for two twats?

I'm not sure. I do know that the term for a large number of twats is a Twitter.

Now that's funny right there, I don't care who you are...

@rainman said in A Day at the Beach:

Yeah, and I wonder if they sat around and talked about stuff like, "who shot Lincoln?"

As they were Dutch, it seems unlikely. Most of their spare time would probably have been spent discussing the quality of the local dikes.

Hey that was before the surgery.

She’s liked your steaks before, right?

Nuke it to glass…

Sorry is that not allowed? Are people supposed to know that answer without searching?

Nah, but it's much more frustrating to not use it.😛

So in short, we stole it from the Brits?

Yes and the Brits had earlier stole it from the Germans.

Damn good thing it wasn't aspirin!

The only thing I picked up on there was that this was not the first time he did it? Yikes.

He said something stupid, regardless of his bona fides.

Hardly a rare occurrence.

Down here, they are.

https://www.ncsl.org/research/health/fetal-homicide-state-laws.aspx

Currently, at least 38 states have fetal homicide laws: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin. At least 29 states have fetal homicide laws that apply to the earliest stages of pregnancy ("any state of gestation/development," "conception," "fertilization" or "post-fertilization"); these are indicated below with an asterisk (*).

i seriously doubt American citizens would be held in Germany or other countries.

What do polls have to do with anything?

We have that same grill, but it didn't cost us $65. You got a great deal Mik.

$10K seems a lot if the awning is meant to last 15 yrs. But if it's meant to last 30, then it seems fair.

For me the biggest concern would be how loud would it be when it rains.
