Especially given the statistically increased potential for gun homicides occurring in the home with their own guns. Or, famously, parents or friends actually giving their children guns. A study published in January by a leading non-profit organization that focuses on gun violence prevention found that there is a direct correlation in states with weaker gun laws and higher rates of gun deaths, including homicides, suicides and accidental killings. The study by Everytown for Gun Safety determined that California had the strongest gun laws in the country. Hawaii topped the list with the lowest rate of gun deaths in the country while Mississippi led the country with both the weakest gun laws and highest rate of gun deaths. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/01/20/us/everytown-weak-gun-laws-high-gun-deaths-study/index.html Owning Guns Puts People in Your Home at Greater Risk of Being Killed, New Study Shows https://time.com/6183881/gun-ownership-risks-at-home/

At my condo the customer comes to the lobby. I don't think the security guards allow them in and many condos have card or other keyless entry.

When you make a claim you must substantiate it or you are trolling and this case you are trolling. I read about this yesterday where it's claimed that most mass shootings are planned meticulously. All these links were obtained fro a simple google search which took me a single minute. You could have dispelled your own myth easily but chose to push this false right wing narrative instead. Here is evidence that you a re wrong, now please produce up a credible source which supports your claim. The reality is that people with mental illness account for a very small proportion of perpetrators of mass shootings in the U.S., says Ragy Girgis, MD, associate professor of clinical psychiatry in the Columbia University Department of Psychiatry and the New York State Psychiatric Institute. https://www.columbiapsychiatry.org/news/mass-shootings-and-mental-illness-5 https://www.apa.org/news/podcasts/speaking-of-psychology/dispelling-myth Data from Columbia Mass Murder Database reveal psychosis and other serious psychiatric illness absent in the majority of perpetrators https://www.columbiapsychiatry.org/news/new-findings-columbia-mass-murder-database U.S. popular and political discourse frequently applies the mental illness descriptor to white male shooters, but analysis of whiteness itself, or discussions of whiteness as a race or ethnicity, are usually omitted from published studies about U.S. mass shootings.37–39 By contrast, race and ethnicity often play a key role in accounts of mass shootings when the perpetrator is not white. https://journals.lww.com/hrpjournal/fulltext/2021/01000/mental_illness,_mass_shootings,_and_the_future_of.6.aspx

Are you 68 and find it difficult to read tiny print on a tiny screen without glasses that you normally don't wear?

This lives rent free in your head, sorry. It has to count as spreading misinformation. Prove it or stop trolling. Yesterday I was at Bangkok Hospital. There was young girl there with her teacher in the waiting room. Both were wearing a special school uniform which looked like a scouts uniform. Everybody was wearing masks except a couple of farang. In your book he's perpetrating child abuse.

That's the kind of dog whistle which makes Trump popular among his supporters.

U.S. military poised to return to Subic Bay, counter China's presence

You've been there more recently than I have but that would make it the larger island near the heads. The other is closer to the shore off Baloy beach. -

Is that the one with the concrete castle or the big island further out as I suspect? -
Elon Musk says Twitter will offer 'amnesty' to suspended accounts

Who doesn't think Ely Lilly is about to sue Twitter? 'Insulin is free': Impersonator Behind Eli Lilly's Stock Crash Goes Public. Sean Morrow, 33, from New York, set Twitter ablaze on November 10 with nine words: "We are excited to announce insulin is free now." For Twitter users used to quickly scrolling down their feeds, the verified @EliLillyandCo account might have appeared genuine with its blue checkmark. But it was one of the numerous parody accounts that took advantage of Elon Musk's original $8 Twitter Blue scheme to troll a major company. https://www.newsweek.com/insulin-free-impersonator-behind-eli-lillys-stock-crash-goes-public-1762283 edit: From the article. "On November 11, Eli Lilly shareholders winced as its stock price fell from $368.72 to $352.30 within hours of the tweet being shared, although it has since recovered". Many might believe that no harm was done but lots of shareholders with trailing stop loss orders (very common) would have lost a motza. -

Sure, maybe he could cut all of his costs? -

The other way you allude to is subscriptions. Good luck with that I think. I don't pay subscriptions to any news or media platform. The successful ones are all based on advertising. Facebook's business model is all about advertising. -

Be that as it may, I think we can safely suggest that the advertising revenue is going to dry up regardless. -
I think Trump just doomed his chances in 2024. Now reverting to his usual ploy "I don't even know the guy" (paraphrased). Trump talks with white nationalist Nick Fuentes at Mar-a-Lago dinner https://www.axios.com/2022/11/25/trump-nick-fuentes-ye-kanye
