Oh. Happy birthday to me. I’m 51 today. We’ll see if we can keep ’em (birthday’s that is) coming.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. So do public\u00a0service teachers union come into this story or not<\/a>?<\/li>\n
  2. More on\u00a0schools here<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  3. Plan and market<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  4. Powerful predictor\u00a0not so powerful after all<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  5. Taking the gun rhetoric\u00a0seriously for a moment<\/a>. \u00a0And gussy\u00a0up a false dichotomy <\/a>with pretty graphics and its still a false dichotomy. Seriously. Hint … to the non-religious liberal who thinks evil doesn’t exist and all crime is just illness … read Midgely’s book Wickedness<\/em>. Mary Midgely is a renknowned British moral philospher. It’s not a hard read.<\/li>\n
  6. Or\u00a0not at all<\/a>. Let’s see what was Congress’ first suggestion ban\u00a0“assault” rifles<\/a> … you know they are used in\u00a0less than 2% of crimes<\/a> like the one in the news and not in the current case.<\/li>\n
  7. And the idiot who shouted “ban all Glock’s”\u00a0calls others ignorant<\/a>. Let’s see, Glock makes semi-automatic pistols which are inexpensive, accurate, and reliable. The are one of a dozen manufacturers who make similar products. But let’s ban just the one.\u00a0Why<\/a>? Dunno. Let’s ban “high capacity” magazines, ’cause it takes a second and a half to change magazines. That’s clearly the limiting step.<\/li>\n
  8. Slurp<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  9. So\u00a0what triggered the shooter<\/a>? Perhaps, the threat of involuntary incarceration in a mental health institution. Which in turns suggests he needed it.<\/li>\n
  10. Race\u00a0and shootings<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  11. Wheee<\/a>!<\/li>\n
  12. Not forgetting\u00a0the economic crises<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
