ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children
They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!”
This is tyranny
These kids are traumatized

I do not buy books from Amazon.

We buy other stuff from Amazon when it is unavoidable. Which thanks to monopoly, is a lot of the time.
For books I look for every alternative.

Solid thinking on the Kirk murder.
I have a couple of comments about the "free speech hero" narrative about Charlie Kirk.
First, was Charlie Kirk really notable for supporting the free speech of people he disagreed with? I haven't noticed that, though I could have missed it.

On December 14, 2012, a mass shooter murdered 20 children, ages 6 and 7, and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut.
Four days later, evangelical author James Dobson claimed the mass shooting was God's retribution for abortion and gay marriage.
He died today at 89.
