How changing your Facebook profile protects you from violent crime
by Michael A. Schwartz A guy named Ahmad (probably not a Baptist or a Lutheran) set off a bomb, almost killing people in a trendy metro area, while a Somali immigrant stabbed people while yelling “allah akbar” at a mall in middle America, only stopped by shots from the gun of a competitive, civilian, concealed-weapon-permit-holder.

You are still wrong, Pam Slater-Price. Dave Roberts isn’t right For County Supervisor because he’s just like you.
Encinitas Mayor Kristin Gaspar will be elected to the San Diego County Board of Supervisors, probably by more than six to eight percentage points.

Democratic Voters Are Cowards (and Far From Democratic)
Hillary Clinton rigged the election to defeat a septuagenarian socialist (and STILL almost lost). Read the source documents (emails) proving her complicity. Please chant, “This. Is. What. De-mo-cra-cy. Looks. Like.” as you denounce Hillary Clinton. You won’t. You will say, “But Trump” Cowards.
