Here is what is being alleged. Either Comey lied or McCabe lied. That is a matter for a jury of twelve regular citizens to decide. The discrepancy between their sworn statements is the probable cause required to proceed.

Oh, I agree completely. The Dems can't keep pointing at a fancy tv graphic saying overall crime is down when a 2min search of Google shows that there are neighborhoods that aren't safe and are controlled by drug gangs. Memphis has 50 known gangs with an estimated 10k members... And less than 2k cops

This is just one city in YOUR state, Jess.
As bad as they are, school shootings are just a fraction of those killed in urban areas every.single.day.

Same problem... Lots of flowers but no tomatoes

I saw them. I've been a bit busy and remiss in my postings... Though... There is this to perk up your eyes...

Life with miscreant kittens.
A story for #TheCampfire

1/ Now, I was a dog person. Over half a century I had been a dog dad of a Cocker, a Shepard, 3 Weimers and a GSP. After the last one had passed, I swore off pets. Until one day I adopted/rescued a cat from my secretary.

I sat down on a trailside log for a break... looked over and almost shat myself until I realized what they were. I'd heard about them, but never saw them in person.
