A really stupid reason to buy anything
Meet America's gun super-owners – with an average of 17 firearms each
For years, Rich, a refinery operator from Wilmington, Delaware, was a typical American gun owner. He had only one or two guns, including a handgun he stashed in a bottom drawer in his bedroom.
He never took it out and never fired it.
Then, in December 2012, 20 first-graders were murdered in a school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, sparking renewed calls for a ban on the AR-15 military-style rifle the shooter had used.
Worried that a ban was coming, Rich joined the crowd of people at a local gun store and paid roughly $2,000 in cash for an AR-15 – about twice what the gun is worth today.
“I never really wanted one before,” he said, “but at that time there was the fear that if you don’t buy it now, you may never, ever get one.”
The Second Amendment is the only amendment whose sole current impact is to protect a really dangerous hobby not only from outright suppression but even significant control.
"Gun nut" sounds right to me.

Trump seizes the chance
Donald Trump defends racial profiling in wake of bombs
Of course he does.
"Our local police -- they know who a lot of these people are. They are afraid to do anything about it because they don't want to be accused of profiling," Trump said on Fox News on Monday.
Trump pointed to how Israel used profiling and "done an unbelievable job."
Trump did not say on what attributes he would encourage police to profile possible suspects, but It's illegal for police to subject US persons to disparate treatment based on their race or other protected status.
"They see somebody that's suspicious, they will profile," Trump said.
"Look what's going on: Do we really have a choice? We're trying to be so politically correct in our country, and this is only going to get worse."
Profiling would make sense at airports, in preference to the idiotic security measures forced on us by stupid liberals.
But how is that supposed to relate to "home grown" terrorist attacks?
Is he really hinting at preventive detention, internment of people who might eventually commit a criminal act?
The idea has been floated in Europe by people in the nationalist, anti-EU right.
The skinhead, soccer hooligan right.
People who support Trump and whom he supports.
Do the Israelis do anything like that?
Of course he does.

The word is at least that old
The word "wake" is used twice within 2 lines concerning the funeral rites of Arcyte.
It is familiar in English and American literature and commonly used in New England, anyway, and in Ireland.
In my childhood, a wake was held at home for a dead great uncle, as I recall.
The body was in a coffin, food and drink were served, the rooms were full of smoke.
Catholic Canadian French in Spencer, Massachusetts.
So why is the word unfamiliar to people in the Pittsburgh region?

1 Corinthians
Amplified Bible.
At the kids' house in Maryland.
Foolishness to the Greeks, yes.
But just what the Jews wanted, miracles and signs, according to him and the gospels and Acts.
But the Jews just didn't buy it, anyway.
Christ crucified.

More coincidence
Marius overhears Jondrette/Thenardier planning a gang ambush on Valjean at 6 in the evening, when Valjean is to visit to give Jondrette 60 francs with which to pay a year's back rent.
Valjean now uses the name Urbain Fabre.
They plan to kill him unless he hands over a very great amount of money.
The true rent is 40 a year, and anyway Jondrette owes no more than a few months, if that much, as Marius had earlier paid his arrears.
Marius goes to the police, who plan to ambush the ambushers.
They are, of course, led by Javert.
The double ambush plays out.
No one is hurt, the criminals are arrested, and Valjean escapes out a window.
Javert, disappointed, seems to have known it was he being ambushed.
Les Miserables.
Envy and hate
Thenardier tells his wife, the ogress, that the beautiful young lady is Cosette, who was Cinderella to her and her pampered daughters when her husband was an innkeeper.
She is filled with envy, rage, and hate.
Les Miserables.
Coincidence rules Hugo's world
It is about 1832.
Marius pities a family of begging con artists, the Jondrettes, to whom he gives money.
Of course, so does Valjean.
Through them, Marius finds by chance Cosette, whom he loves but has never met and whose name he knows not, and her supposed father, Valjean.
He had fallen in love from seeing her and her supposed father sitting and chatting at the Luxembourg.
Valjean, noticing Marius following them, had moved house and stopped going there, and thus escaped him, to the despair of the young man.
Months later, at their first meeting in the beggars' wretched flat, secretly observed by Marius, Jondrette, who is Thenardier, recognizes Valjean, though it had been 8 years.
He keeps it to himself, even as Marius, astonished, recognizes the girl of the Luxembourg and her supposed father.
Valjean suspects nothing.
Hugo's portrait of Jondrette and of more dangerous criminals recalls Dostoevsky.
Or the other way around.
The Thenardiers were repulsive long before they were poor.
Poverty has not ennobled them, but it has not made them worse.
There is something to the idea that society has made them poor.
But it did not make them bad.
It did not have to.
Les Miserables.
The master of the long con
Trump gets 30 minutes free air time on CNN
An infomercial on his new hotel and a parade of surrogates praising him in return for one sentence affirming the president was born in the USA and another blaming the birth of birtherism on Hillary's 2008 campaign.
What utter contempt for the media.
I haven't watched the news in weeks.
Talk about a waste of time.
Complete, bombastic nullity
Hugo's liberalism.
No, Hugo's thought, entirely.
