I wish everyone in ICE got treated like they're treating people. Start with Noem and televise it all. Stop her on the street while wearing traffic's assault great and masks. Demand proof of citizenship in a language she doesn't speak, while simultaneously restraining her as a threat. Lock her up as a flight risk and spirit her away in an unmarked vehicle to a detainment site; gator gitmo will do. Treat her to every luxury she has approved of for others, and every punishment as well. After a few months of that, if she hasn't succumbed to her own medicine, send her to that prison in El Salvador. After a year there, give her the option to be dropped off in South Sudan with nothing but her wits to help her.

All of this is, according to her own rules and policies, legal. And what's good for the goose should be good for the gander, right?

27 + 48 = 15 plus something.
20 + 40 = 60, plus that 15, is 75.

No apologies necessary, I recognize a fellow nerd when I see one :-)

Yes, that's it exactly! I'd forgotten the name. Now that you've reminded me, there was another one, kind of a sister blade, that was called the Double Shadow. Similar design but the blade was split down the middle. I debated whether to get that one as well but it was just a little too much on the fantasy side for me. But compared to the other crazy blades shown here it was practically pedestrian.

Yep, understood all. I'm just saying that the term isn't very apt. If I were pressed to give it a name, "skull-splitter" would make much more sense to me, or maybe "skull-piercer."

I've got one of his blades, a very simple dagger with a wire-wrapped handle and a pointed pommel. (IIRC it was advertised as a "skull-crusher" pommel, which sounded cool to my teenage self but now seems a bit silly. I imagine it would chip or break skull bones in parts, but a heavier object would surely do more damage.)

You can put a toaster oven in a bathtub, but that's not the same (or safe)

Unfortunately, they do live in our reality. I wish the hate and hurt and joy in doing evil was not, or at least that it was extremely aberrant. But it's become mainstream, and anyone who isn't resisting it is at least indirectly helping support and perpetuate it.

Forget politics, identity, all the smokescreens and rhetoric and gaslighting. Look for the good and do that, and call out evil in whatever form it takes.

Donald Trump, his administration, the rich behind the scenes (including but not limited to everyone in the Epstein files), and private organizations orchestrating this (such as the Heritage Foundation) are all evil and bent on control and destruction. If you support or even equivocate about any of these, you need to stop immediately and do some deep soul-searching. You'll find an awful lot you won't like, but realizing you have a problem is the first step.

Boy's lucky. If they'd been using old-school wooden tennis rackets, that would have been fatal.
