    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11759771/Mystery-Bill-Clinton-advisor-dead-gunshot-wound-no-gun.html The grisly scene where a top Bill Clinton adviser was found hanged from a tree with a gunshot wound to his chest has finally been revealed nine months after he died. But the sheriff's report into Mark Middleton's mysterious death raises more questions than answers as it rules he died by suicide – despite no sign of the weapon that killed him. Middleton, 59, was found dead last May at the Heifer Ranch in Perryville, Arkansas, an hour west of Little Rock. Release of the report was held up after members of his family petitioned a judge. They were worried that pictures from the gory scene would be made public. The judge eventually ruled that details could be released but photographs could not. The report, written by Perry County Sheriff's Deputy Jeremy Lawson, says he was called to the ranch by worker Samantha McElroy who had found Middleton's abandoned black BMW SUV. McElroy, 46, then walked around a cottage on the ranch. 'Almost immediately after stepping around the corner of the cottage she started yelling,' wrote Lawson. 'Upon reaching the back of the cottage she pointed towards the rear of the property and asked if that was a person. 'I could see what at first appeared to be a man sitting near a tree, as my eyes focused better, I could see a rope of some type going from the tree limb to the male." Lawson said it was clear that Middleton was dead. 'I could see that he had a gunshot wound to the chest and that he had a knot tied in an extension cord that was around his neck and it was attached to the limb directly above him. The deputy said a search of Middleton's vehicle turned up three boxes of buckshot and a gun case – but no weapon. The details give fresh insight into the death of Middleton, a married father of two daughters aged 18 and 20 who was found dead on May 7 last year.

    @Jolly said in Where do you shoot a charging bear?: Well, now you know where to pop them. It's my understanding, a lot of Alaskan guides carry 10-gauge pumps. That's because if they need to stop a bear, it's going to be pretty close. And it's easier to hit something moving fast within forty yards with a shotgun than with a rifle. Here in Alberta and BC where there are grizzlies, tree markers for logging companies commonly pack 12 gauge pumps with alternating loads of triple aught buckshot and slugs in the tube.

    Any basic attempt by the psychological academic establishment to measure the damage done to black psyches by teaching them the race narrative from birth, would make the progressive white women behind all of that, want to kill themselves in shame. The psychological damage they do to that community is enormous. And to the extent the education starts and is focused on kids, it’s child abuse.

    In a similar vein here is an interview with Stephen Kotkin that was made a couple of weeks ago. Kotkin presents a frank assessment of the present global reality and possible outcome of the war in Ukraine and America’s paramount role in global security. China and Taiwan figure prominently in his argument. Again, worth the time and effort to listen: https://m. Link to video

    @George-K said in Wonder what happens after 3/1/23?: Maybe they'll subpoena Wray and he'll have time to testify before he jets off on vacation. He could, of course, always apply the Lerner/Holder precedent. Didn't work for the Trump guys...

    Maybe y'all can do something about the Chinese influence within Canada. I'm afraid too much of the U.S has already been bought and paid for.

    @Copper said in 1920's Berlin: @Horace said in 1920's Berlin: Racism is worse now than it's ever been. So as we look back in time racism gets better. Its relationship to social status, shame, and disgust sure does flip. The group these days that shares most in common culturally with the slave owners back then, are the high status woke crowd.

    12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve; 14 and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. - 1 Timothy:12-14. That's not to say that women cannot teach in the church. Consider: 25 He had been instructed in the way of the Lord. And being fervent in spirit,4 he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John. 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately. - Acts 18:25-26 There's a lot more out there, but it's very evident from the Christian Church's Jewish roots and from Paul's writings, that women should not teach the Bible to men in a congregational worship setting.

    @Mik said in "Please don't publish about my sexual assault.": This is just flat wrong. There’s no benefit to the public. Indeed. But, welcome to politics, right Chicago Tribune?

    Saw that. Totally awkward. She was both giddy and terrified to go too far.
