    Official Gun Control Debate Thread

    http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/guns/2013/jan/4/miller-if-youre-not-david-gregory-extended-version/ I guess equal protection under law is more equal for some than others and you seem perfectly complacent becoming chattel under a new class of untouchable gentry as long as it occurs by the...

    Official Gun Control Debate Thread

    Re: Because Chicago is the safest city in the US thanks to the same laws Really? Compare and contrast the treatment of David Gregory with Aaron Swartz. One blatant violation of DC gun laws on national television results in softball interview with the gun control pushing president a week later...

    Official Gun Control Debate Thread

    Because Chicago is the safest city in the US thanks to the same laws I'm so glad the War on Terror and War on Drugs have gone so well that we now can spend untold billions declaring war on simple boxes with springs holding more than some arbitrary number of cartridges. In about a year I'm...

    Official Gun Control Debate Thread

    Statists love gun control as it removes the ability of the individual to defend themselves and empowers the state as the sole arbiter of protection. Since the state cannot protect the individual without being omnipresent, eventually individuals frustrated by an inability to be adequately...

    Official Gun Control Debate Thread

    https://larrycorreia.wordpress.com/2012/12/20/an-opinion-on-gun-control/ An opinion on gun control By Larry Correia I didn’t want to post about this, because frankly, it is exhausting. I’ve been having this exact same argument for my entire adult life. It is not an exaggeration when I say that...

    This is why you budget for future expenses. Everyone here indicating that is lunacy to account for debt 40 years in the future seems to forget that eventually that debt comes due. Much like deferred maintenance in this state, politicians do not want to talk about it, let alone budget for it...

    Who Wants To Be... MAYOR!

    Fixed that for you. Menino's future is dependent on keeping the power brokers behind each faction of city employees happy. He has gotten away with pissing off teachers, firefighters, and librarians on occasion, but raising the ire of a few more, or showing weakness as a de facto Godfather could...

    The New Retail Thread

    Relocate the Trader Joes from the horrid basement space on Boylston Street to the former Virgin Megastore/BestBuy location. The direct bus/subway connection, frontage on Mass Ave, and much larger space would turn it into a bigger goldmine than the current miniature Boylston location is.

    When a bunch of bored engineering students take over Cambridge with these things I will be slightly amused. And yes, that American flag bandanna adds +1 to the craziness of the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jplh7uatr-E#!&feature=player_embedded

    Yes, any criticism and facts which challenge the narrative of the party are unfounded distractions. Avert your lying eyes and ears from reality as required. Works for most of the media. Since I know the media won't bother provide anything resembling the rectal exam level coverage Mr. Brown...

    http://dailycaller.com/2012/12/12/elizabeth-warren-will-not-serve-on-committee-on-indian-affairs/ I am shocked, just shocked, that the senate would deny such a position to a 'Native American'. How racist of that accused pederast Harry Reid to exercise such blatant discrimination! :rolleyes:

    MA Casino Developments

    We need casino revenue to support the culture of corruption we are now importing the slew of new Chicago carpetbaggers inbound. I say we locate the new Casino in Wellesley and a centralized gambling addiction treatment center in Weston. All the warm and fuzzy caring do-good preachy know it...

    Developer Interest Grows in Downtown Chelsea

    I didn't know the South End was going to turn around. It was what I could afford when I decided to stop renting. Bought one townhouse to live in and started renovating it after work each day. Quickly realized it was enjoyable and that maybe I could be a landlord. Real estate was dirt cheap and...

    Biking in Boston

    I get the feeling the truck driver saw a break in rush hour traffic and floored the accelerator to quickly make the turn. A cyclist going downhill, not expecting to have a tractor trailer turn from the left lane in front of them wouldn't have much time to brake. Either that or the cyclists was...

    Developer Interest Grows in Downtown Chelsea

    This is how I became a wealthy man even excluding the money I married into. Of course the end of rent control and doing nearly all the renovations myself helped.

    Biking in Boston

    This is the third fatality where a tractor trailer making a wide turn has killed a cyclist. Two stationary at lights, one of which was in a bike lane, and now this poor kid moving in a dedicated lane. Trucks that large should be limited to certain hours for deliveries and be required to make a...
