Americans Broadly Support Red Flag Laws

https://www.npr.org/2019/08/20/752427922/poll-americans-including-republicans-and-gun-owners-broadly-support-red-flag-law

Strong majorities of Americans from across the political spectrum support laws that allow family members or law enforcement to petition a judge to temporarily remove guns from a person who is seen to be a risk to themselves or others, according to a new APM Research Lab/Guns & America/Call To Mind survey.

These laws, often called extreme risk protection order laws, or red flag laws, have received renewed attention after 31 people were killed during mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio. Variations of these red flag laws are in place in 17 states and the District of Columbia.

Self-Driving Trucks Are Ready to Do Business in Texas


https://www.wired.com/story/self-driving-trucks-ready-business-texas

For now, there will be a “safety driver” at the wheel to monitor the 18-wheeler, and make sure it doesn’t do anything wonky. (These drivers also guide the trucks on and off the highways, and into distribution terminals; most companies working on automated trucks have focused on simple highway driving, and plan to leave urban driving to humans for the foreseeable future.) But eventually, the company would like to carry freight on fully self-driving trucks that snake from Dallas to almost every corner of the Lone Star State: to Laredo on the Mexico border, to Austin in the middle of the state, and to El Paso in the west.

Newtown Parents Make Gains In Court Cases Against Sandy Hook Deniers

To have to prove your dead child was a real person has to be gut wrenching. I think this character of Alex Jones has finally gone too far, and needs to be retired. Time for you to generate a new persona for your show.

Instant Karma took awhile

When they talk about how the Internet never forgets, this just gave everyone an idea of how far back that memory goes.

A pithy little piece

I am confident, he is not a performance artist, but I don't  believe he walks around frothing all day, like on his show when excited.
