[02:03]	IsambardPrince	Illinois has some gun laws that date back to the 1960s that are stricter than the nation. They were enacted mostly by white supremacists.
[02:03]	IsambardPrince	They were designed to try to make it harder for Black Separatists to arm themselves.
[02:03]	IsambardPrince	The NRA was actually behind them.
[02:03]	IsambardPrince	But it's starting to come apart.
[02:04]	IsambardPrince	A federal judge struck down the ban on illegal immigrants owning guns.
[02:04]	IsambardPrince	He reasoned that the Constitution doesn't say anything about citizenship there, and he's right, it doesn't.
[02:04]	IsambardPrince	Why would illegal immigrants have rights under the other amendments but not the Second?
[02:05]	IsambardPrince	Nobody worried much about citizenship when the Constitution was adopted, and nobody is going to change the Constitution anytime soon.
[02:07]	IsambardPrince	Then there's the Assault Weapons Ban, that won't last long.
[02:08]	IsambardPrince	But then there's also the concealed carry ban on public transportation.
[02:08]	IsambardPrince	That was thrown out last week.

[06:14]	IsambardPrince	The less House seats they win, the harder it would be for Trump to do much except pack the judiciary and subvert the agencies. But if the Democrats controlled the House, it would mean his tax law would be dead on arrival.
[06:14]	IsambardPrince	At least without major changes.

[21:32]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2], Apparenrently, SpaceX has been molesting private property in Texas, owned by Cards Against Humanity.
[21:33]	IsambardPrince	They bought it so Trump couldn't easily build a segment of border wall there, but they still own it.
[21:34]	IsambardPrince	They decided to leave it undeveloped as a nature preserve, and Elon Musk is apparently just using it, without asking, and damaging the local flora and fauna with heavy construction equipment.
[21:34]	IsambardPrince	Ironically, Texas might do something about this.
[21:34]	IsambardPrince	Private property rights are really big there.
[21:34]	IsambardPrince	90s Texas wasn't such a bad place.
[21:34]	IsambardPrince	But then again, neither was 90s Indiana.
[21:35]	IsambardPrince	It's amazing how my parents have this "I'm not a towel, you're the fucking towel." attitude.
[21:35]	IsambardPrince	They voted Indiana into rot and ruin.

[21:35]	IsambardPrince	It's become a second West Virginia.
[21:36]	IsambardPrince	Everything that used to be there, including most of the population, has left.

[21:38]	IsambardPrince	In Escape From New York, they filmed in East St. Louis, Illinois because it was already very bad back then.
[21:38]	IsambardPrince	The city was so desperate to attract money that they closed down streets and let the filmmakers do whatever they wanted.

[22:19]	IsambardPrince	Oh good, London Metro. The ones that admitted they didn't do anything to stop the Grindr Killer.
[22:19]	IsambardPrince	The cops don't change. They consider young gay men disappearing of minor importants.
[22:19]	IsambardPrince	*importance
[22:20]	IsambardPrince	The really successful serial killers go after victims the police don't care about.
[22:20]	IsambardPrince	Black, gay, trannies, etc.
[22:20]	IsambardPrince	That's why John Wayne Gacy was able to kill so many.
[22:20]	IsambardPrince	He would have been "successful" if he was randomly shooting homeless people.
[22:21]	IsambardPrince	There's little incentive to investigate when the victim won't be missed.
[22:22]	IsambardPrince	I am not a serial killer, but as a thought experiment, I've considered how you could be one and go on for a long time without getting caught.
[22:22]	IsambardPrince	The logical answer is to pick victims that are on the fringes of society, where the police won't be under any pressure to solve the case, or don't like the people you're killing anyway.
[22:22]	IsambardPrince	If you do this, there's no telling how many people you could kill before anyone does anything about it.
[22:23]	IsambardPrince	Because the cops would never say it this way, but they consider it a public service when gays and homeless people go missing and end up floating down the river.
[22:24]	IsambardPrince	I think the Grindr Killer got 7 that the London Metro confirmed, but boasted that there were many more.
[22:24]	IsambardPrince	Gacy got dozens, but said he got hundreds and the Chicago Police would never find them all.
[22:24]	IsambardPrince	He was probably telling the truth.

[22:51]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, Mom's friend at church is refinancing their mortgage. I told mom "That's dumb."
[22:52]	IsambardPrince	She said "Well, rates dropped." I said, "Yeah, by about 8%. If they tightened their belt for a while and waited 6-8 more months they could have refinanced for half of what they're paying now."
[22:52]	MinceR	"So dumb, so dumb, so dumb, so"
[22:52]	IsambardPrince	Everyone's jumping to get refi at 8% less when they could wait a little while and do 50% or so.
[22:52]	IsambardPrince	And you can only refinance about once every 5 years I think.
[22:53]	IsambardPrince	So they're trapping themselves by locking in these high rates for another 5 years.
[22:53]	IsambardPrince	It'll feel good to see the payments drop a little bit at first, but in the long run it will be more damaging to refinance now.
[22:54]	IsambardPrince	Church people tend to be pretty stupid I've noticed.
[22:54]	IsambardPrince	Like her friend that took out student loans in her 50s to 'write children's books'.
[22:55]	IsambardPrince	Who is married to a man over 30 years older than she is who is in heart failure and can barely stand up.
[22:55]	IsambardPrince	But they're 'going to build a house when he gets better'.
[22:55]	IsambardPrince	He's not going to get better. They never signed up for Medicare Part D, so there was no way to pay for the most advanced heart medicine they make for his condition.
[22:56]	IsambardPrince	When I suggested signing up for Part D so they'd have a drug plan, they went to an insurance agent who signed him up for a plan that doesn't cover that drug.
[22:56]	IsambardPrince	And now he's stuck with it for a year when they could have signed up for the one I recommended.
[22:57]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, I think mom said that the pastor's name is Reverand Fishburne or something.
[22:57]	IsambardPrince	I said, "Yeah, he's fishing for them, and they're getting burned."
