Fair enough, but at the end of the day we're still blaming the victim of a crime for being in a position to have a crime committed against them.

I just recently had a debate on a neighborhood message board about just that. There had been a rash of stolen firearms from vehicles because their "owners" were too irresponsible and reckless by leaving the guns in their unlocked vehicles or in plain sight in locked vehicles. For sure, those "victims" should be held criminally negligent for their irresponsible actions. Reckless endangerment at the very least, felony distribution of a firearm more like it. They should also have their rights revoked just like any other felon would.

He wanted to kill a Pirate yesterday, so more ammunition for Trump

That can't be going down well with Florida GOP politicians. The Cuban vote there wins them elections.

Speaking of things that aren't going down well, Junior just gave Loblaws $12 million for some reason and people are pissed.

Exactly I am not sure Rubio and others are liking that too much right now.

Secret Service agents—really on top of their game here—conducted a four-and-a-half hour interview with Zhang, but failed to realize they were only recording video. There is no audio of the interview.

It really is remarkable that nobody has gotten a shot off at a president in 38 years.

Extenuating circumstance there. The item that was improperly secured could be used to cause grievous injury to others. A photo of boobs cannot do that. Improperly securing a deadly weapon is in a lot of cases a crime itself.

I am a little hyper sensitive about this whole situation because of one of the worst cases I have ever worked. A woman was in a relationship with her boyfriend for 4 and a half years. Around a year before the end, he convinced her to start photographing and recording their intimate moments. Turns out the guy had been emotionally and physically abusing her all along. Convincing her she was fat, ugly and no one would want her, so it was likely he groomed her to be submissive to him. She eventually gets up the courage to leave him. He (through a tracking app on her phone that let him read her text messages and email) found out, beat the shit out of her and raped her. He put all the photos and copies of all their dirty text messages on mega upload and said if she left him he would post links to them everywhere. Reddit, 4 Chan, etc and send them to her parents.

She killed herself 3 days after that and her suicide note said that she couldn't fight it because she didn't want to go through being slut-shamed.

The guy got 6 months (suspended) for stalking. The "citizens" on a local news message board pretty much universally blamed her for "getting herself into that situation". I wanted for months to nuke the whole fucking town.

She was 25.

After one of their geniuses took the USB drive from her and plugged it into his laptop.

I've worked with the Secret Service from time to time. They don't seem completely incompetent.

I was helping a friend clean out his uncle's apartment after he died and we found a box of manuscripts. Over the years the uncle had written 6 novels starring Harry Ellis from Die Hard.

All you have to do is claim that the apartment belonged to Harper Lee and you are IN THE MONEY

Ugh. That's just wrong.

The "citizens" here, or more precisely the bulletheads, kept arguing that a car itself could be used to cause "grievous injury to others" and should we arrest the car owners who leave them unlocked and have the car stolen? Bunch o' bull.

It's just a bunch of bluster from Junior, he's not suing anybody.
