So I watched Maharaja Shah-in-Shah's press conference today and he said "Trump" thought active-shooter drills were scaring the kids. A journo asks Shah, "So the president thinks they shouldn't have them?"
"No," Shah says. "He just thinks the name scares the kids and they ought to call them something else."
Ladies and gentlemen: your president, Donald J "Trump".
And by the way, if we're using the term "active shooter" does this imply that there is such a thing as a "passive shooter," and if so what would that be?

FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY: Governor Greitens will not be able to attend the @NatlGovsAssoc meetings in Washington, DC this weekend due to an unforeseen scheduling conflict.
“This is pretty raw criminality,’’ said Patrick Cotter, a former federal prosecutor now in private practice in Chicago. “According to the indictment, these are two fellows on a multi-year tear of lying to every bank they could found about their income. To a federal prosecutor, it’s fairly crude. It’s extensive and bold and greedy with a capital ‘G,’ but it’s not all that sophisticated.”
Cotter said there was one hero in the tale told by the indictment – a bookkeeper who refused an alleged request by Gates to falsely inflate a revenue claim. And the lawyer noted that given the amount of money at issue, and the ages of the defendants, convictions could amount to a de facto life prison sentence.

Closest thing I can find to a passive shooter: the Gallipoli drip rifle. https://www.awm.gov.au/articles/encyclopedia/gall…

Using a Broomhandle Mauser pistol as their hed pic must mean something.

What was that worm-turning metaphor again…..
|more sad truth|
Sounds like Gates didn't flip, or at least not good enough?
[From WaPo's coverage of this]:
Sure you want to serve time for Donald, boys?

Mine was the 1911 I field stripped, cut up with a chop saw, and welded together backwards.
Tried it again, no luck.

The money is having reservations.
What is ?
Ah. Just might be a first with the NRA.
More the ACLU's milieu.

That's why ACLU. His civil rights were violated by being made dead.
