Remember the Catbus? From My Neighbor Totoro? So did these people—in fact, they loved the thing so much they went and built their own.

My husband, Andrew, is tired of the Second Amendment evangelists proclaiming it means all guns, all the time, everywhere.
I’m sick and tired of explaining that I don’t want to take all your guns. I’ll say it again: I. Don’t. Want. To. Take. All. Your. Guns. What I do support are common-sense regulations that might make it a titch more difficult to kill a mass amount of people, in shorter amount of time, from further away.
I. Don’t. Want. To. Take. All. Your. Guns
I assume by mass amount of people you mean around 400 a year right?
i ASSume by mASS amount of people you mean around 10k+ every year?

Crytek USA wants to buy Darksiders IP - GameSpot.com
Why? I played very early stages of Darksiders and I was not impressed. Why would Crytek want to be associated with a mediocre IP?

NRA Offers ‘Stand Your Ground’ Insurance To Cover Legal Costs Of Shooting People In Self-Defense
I didn’t realize this existed until my wife and I discussed this on my radio show, Checks and Balances. She argues that all gun owners should carry insurance, much like the Obamacare mandate. I’m intrigued, and we’re going to discuss this tonight.
Americans Are The Most Spied On People In World History
Indeed, the American government has more information on the average American than Stalin had on Russians, Hitler had on German citizens, or any other government has ever had on its people.
The American government is collecting and storing virtually every phone call, purchases, email, text message, internet searches, social media communications, health information, employment history, travel and student records, and virtually all other information of every American.
Some also claim that the government is also using facial recognition software and surveillance cameras to track where everyone is going. Moreover, cell towers track where your phone is at any moment, and the major cell carriers, including Verizon and AT&T, responded to at least 1.3 million law enforcement requests for cell phone locations and other data in 2011. And – given that your smartphone routinely sends your location information back to Apple or Google – it would be child’s play for the government to track your location that way.
As the top spy chief at the U.S. National Security Agency explained this week, the American government is collecting some 100 billion 1,000-character emails per day, and 20 trillion communications of all types per year.
This is creepy, folks.
