That's perfectly legal, but a gun safe rigged with automated self-destruct system would be a giant pain in the ass to use and certainly not in sufficient demand to be a commercial product. There are also rules about destruction of evidence. IANAL, but in general, they can't retroactively bust...

This one comes down to "read the fine print". Any electronic safe where the manufacturer offers a "universal" reset or code request service by definition must have a manufacturers' override code of some form to enable that. Liberty always did: And I'd point out that as long as you're aware it...

My point is simply providing relevant facts to give people here a fuller picture of what actually happened with that. I'm not trying to refute what he said. I even outright said I agree that she's a terrorist. Are you seriously objecting to actual factual research simply because you're somehow...

That's been going around Facebook lately, and it's only partially accurate. The person they're talking about was Susan Rosenberg, a member of the self-styled "May 19th Communist Organization", a feminist Communist organization with ties to the Black Liberation Army movement. In fact agree that...

I presented facts and cited evidence. Your response is to. . . ignore the facts and double down on calling me names. The facts refute this claim.

Like I said, I would argue that it's quite rational to weed out candidates who are at a high likelihood of quitting so quickly that you never make back the investment on their hiring and training. It's the exact same logic that businesses use in rejecting overqualified candidates, and again, the...

More like you habitually misrepresent my opinion and then use your made up version to attack me. I made a good-faith effort to factually research the claim you made, and found *no* documented cases of a serving police officer being fired for having too high an IQ. There is one case on record of...

As I recall, that case was a matter of people not being hired by a police department because they were above the ideal score range on a certain aptitude test. The police department had set a maximum score as well as a minimum score, based on experience that employees who scored extremely high...

With red flag laws, there are two reasons: one, there's a strong argument for it being unconstitutional, but the proper venue to challenge that is the courts, especially since red flag laws do work through the court system in the first place. Two, with Buck v. Bell actually still being the law...

No, I didn't miss that reasoning. That's the "defendant's assertion of the right" element in the four factors test that SCOTUS laid out; it's present but not an absolute. While SCOTUS upheld the Court of Appeals verdict as a whole, they did not wholly accept that particular argument. None of...

It does, however, the Constitutional interpretation of that right is *not* defined in a clearcut manner. The primary precedent on this matter is the 1972 Supreme Court ruling in Barker v. Wingo, a case in which a man's murder trial was delayed for over five years because the prosecution wanted...

Eight months is a rule of thumb, not an absolute standard. New York state law actually requires the prosecution to be ready for trial within six months or the case is automatically dismissed without prejudice; however, this *only* applies to felonies other than murder. Since the massive glut...

If you look at the overall statistics, this isn't exceptionally slow for a federal prosecution. State prosecutions can be even worse, with New York taking the cake --in 2015, the average wait for an inmate at Riker's Island to actually see trial was 593 days.

Literally storming the Capitol with guns and the flag of an enemy power. Absolutely true. But they're not the ones carrying the Confederate flag today. Source? Everything I've seen indicates that the National Guard was approved to deploy *in advance*.
