    He's essentially saying that he didn't ask him about repression and brutalization of all opposition, because it's all been done before. State sanctioned murder is just so boring.

    He should have asked him about space aliens, because Tucker loves that shit.

    I was only joking

            @jon-nyc that’s nothing. I can get 100 pennies for one right here!

            But this subway topic brings up a question Renauda can probably answer. Are the Russian people naturally more law abiding, or is the system simply a lot stricter? Maybe a combination of both?

            I’ve always rather admired their charge of hooliganism. It may be difficult to define legally, but I know it when I see it.

                  One thing I don’t understand is the big deal about the shopping carts. FuCa must not get out much. They are pretty much ubiquitous here in all grocery and most low end department stores. Has been that way for over 30 years.

                  And before anyone asks or says it is so…. No, the practice is not mandated or legislated by any level of government. It is purely a corporate retail business decision. And if I recall correctly, it was first introduced by the then US based grocery giant, Safeway, back in the early 1980s.

                  Tucker lives in Maine, I believe. If semi-rural Maine is anything like down here, I've never seen chained shopping carts.

                                Neither. They just have a different collective attitude towards public works, monuments and edifices that reflect cultural or national pride or solemnity. The Moscow subway is such.

                                    Are the Russian people naturally more law abiding, or is the system simply a lot stricter? Maybe a combination of both?

                                    Neither. They just have a different collective attitude towards public works, monuments and edifices that reflect cultural or national pride or solemnity. The Moscow subway is such.

                                    Nice trait to have.

                                      I’ve never seen chained shopping carts. How do customers use them?

                                      They are chained together with coin operated locks. You piut your quarter in the slot and it releases your cart. When you return the cart, you stick the lock in it and it gives you your quarter back. I really hated them at first but came to appreciate them.

                                          I've never seen locked shopping carts.

                                          We have Kroger and Food Lion here, they don't use them.
