The Daily Peeve / Rant

[iris lilies]

I follow a handful of legacy mainstream news sources fairly closely which some would say are liberal. I'd never heard of the guy. That might say something about how social media, which I don't use, is shaping political opinions in a major way.

I see DJT has assumed it was someone from the radical left, and in a position of leadership and in an effort to quell the divisions has said, "...and we just have to beat the hell out of them."

I can see how you’ve never heard of Charlie Kirk. He wasnt high on my radar, that’s for sure, but I did know of him as the “ Change my Mind” guy on college campuses. He was important to people a lot younger than us, so the age factor has something to do with his noteriety.

okay----they've caught the shooter. Dad's a cop, and turned him in; a logical, rational decision on his part. News media said Kirk was struck by one round of 30.06. The same ammo that killed MLK in '68. News media reported the rifle recovered from the grassy knoll--er, wooded area is a vintage bolt-action Mauser. Yes, Mausers can be converted to 30.06 by a gunsmith, but we will see. Doncha remember how the Dallas police spokesman misidentified Oswalds' rifle as a Mauser, when it was in fact a Carcano? I see a connection, there. Maybe the alleged shooter is just a patsy. Yup. Anyway, I can just hear the crackpot conspiracy buffs spinning all kinds of yarns....

okay---i sure hope them containers didn't have no car parts for old chevies! But yeah---even if they did, hopefully they can be sold as marked-down, damaged salvaged sunken ship freight-recovery, at deep discounts. Yup.

okay---here's the home where the alleged assassin of Kirk allegedly lived. Looka the Dodge Challenger in the driveway, which is a red flag. So anyway---what architectural style is the home, anyhow? Faux, what is your opinion? (see photo)What could be done to enhance curb appeal?

The architectural style is Depressing Box with cheap windows and there is no enhancing it, sorry.

I was really impressed with Gov. Spencer Cox's plea this morning. So refreshing for a politician these days to play the role of peacemaker rather than provocateur.

I’ve been happy with many reactions on the “other “political side and I’m not going to be seeking out those that would make me unhappy. ��. Most reasonable people are horrified and/or saddened by this assassination and there’s no point in analyzing it beyond that.

Not affecting me. I saw it on the What's Up with Shipping YT channel. Seems it was maybe loaded too high,

IL: Please clarify your comment by defining "reasonable poop people." I like to think I am reasonable, but I personally have never identified as a poop person.
