He wants them to remain, of course, because traffic means recognition and, ultimately, money, but if only they could just post on more learned things so that he can hold his head high among the Internet titans that he wants to hang out with.

Ok, TTH ... the only  air-tight defense against an accusation of libel, is the truth.

Please ... tell us the FACTS that you have to support this multi-faceted accusation.

Most likely a purchased firearm. Gun Store Owner will only raise a brow if you have a crazy history, but a Mr. Clean record allows you to pick any gun from the candy shop, as long as your license to carry is clean or if you speak highly 2nd amendment, the owner will give you a high five and allow you to buy.

Things can get bad to worse and set to easy mode for the US.

First of all, I was making a joke about mounting radar operated machine guns on Kingdom Halls to deter arsonists.

Second, you obviously have NO experience buying firearms from reputable licensed dealers.

You are speaking about things you do not know ... about.

With Criminals, and criminally minded vendors, of course ANYTHING could be the case.

There is no possible way he is not exactly as I say in every respect.

AGAIN you have avoided answering a fair and pertinent question.

TTH:

How do you know this to be a fact?

I think you are just projecting again, as is your custom.

It's a fair and legitimate question, and really DOES deserve an answer.

How do you know this to be a fact?

  The reasonable conclusion is that your accusations were libelous, and ONLY a product of your paranoid agenda driven imagination.

Radar controlled machine guns?

@James Thomas Rook Jr. At times the sad reality of all things is regardless of one's educational achievements and or accolades in order to get a job and or career position, the barrier still remains: the race, nationality and sex of the individual.

They do not tell you, but deep down inside they do care about this stuff, mainly if the guy who does the hiring leaves it to someone of his inner circle, they will judge you before you can even put your foot in the door.

Yeah ... if you send out only ONE resume, and cry when you are rejected.

Send out a thousand, or two thousand .... and be willing to go ANYWHERE.

There are a lot of stupid, short-sighted employers ... but the great majority of them ARE NOT!

The higher your skill set, the smaller the hiring pool is .. and the better it pays.

To use an analogy ... you use a shotgun to hunt with ... NOT a single shot rifle ... so to speak.

My thoughts on the matter ...Hmmmmm.

I wish I was still working, and could afford that computerized  desktop milling machine for metal.

The "genie" is out of the bottle ... there is no getting it back.

NONE WHATSOEVER.

Trying will have MANY horrible unintended consequences..

Like the Librarian said ....  "Information wants to be free!"

All the "angst" in the world by ignorant Snowflakes will not change that.

Here is a challenge, should you decide to accept it:

How is Jehovah's name actually properly pronounced, phonetically, in English ..... with a one word or one sentence answer?

I am not  and will never limit God in any way shape or form so do not make the accusation before it will end up hurting you in the end. you already hurt yourself by comparing a Prophetess to a handmaid when we know clearly by means of the Strong's such are not even the same.

Could not a Prophetess also be a housemaid? 

I assume they have to work for a living.

Life, for a human, without examination .... and self-examination, is a life not lived.

My comments had no deep meaning. 

Merely that if someone is trying to kill you ... kill them first!

That of course involves  not getting surprised .... and being capable of doing it.

...and some pure dumb luck!

For your sake wherever you see a punkster in all black with a black mask (turn around, walk really fast, perhaps flee elsewhere), do not stick around for if they flock in numbers, they will call you a fascist and or a Nazi, a pedophile, a trump supporter, a support of the Shadow government, a counter protester, someone from either side [left or right], etc. and will attempt to provoke you be it you say or do something or not and when they take surround you, it is too late.

I like to think that anywhere within 100 ft. of me is a "Safe Space"  for all well intentioned people.

The people you mention are stupid, yet can inspire great fear in others ... hence your valid and appreciated warning to people in general, and to me.

If these very bad people  were smart, they would not be so easily identifiable ... as potential targets.

( Where do they buy those clothes, anyway .. "Terrorists-R-US"?)

When a uniformed Nazi shows up in an Indiana Jones movie,  who the bad guys are is obvious to all without explanation.

Again, thanks for the heads up.

The likelihood of me, or ANYBODY running into them here in rural North Carolina approaches zero probability ... but they are bullies, and EXPECT to prey on the weak, the unprepared, and the timid.

I would find anything they "called" me laughable ... and if faced with people in black suits trying to provoke me,  and with their history so well known,  despite a normal fear of death or grievous injury, I just might break into a big toothy grin and surprise them.

It would "make my day"!

"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear."  - Ambrose Redmoon

EVERYONE is evolving.

Like Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto of the Imperial Japanese Navy reportedly once wrote in his diary  or said after  his Carrier Group bombed Pearl Harbor in 1941,

"I fear all that we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant, and filled him with a terrible resolve".

I suspect that if these "movements" of bad guys, by whatever name,  tried to pull in parts of the American Southeast, what they are doing in "Blue" States, Europe and other disarmed countries, their "movements" .... would be bowel.

American humor is a conspiracy by laboratory mice, to take over the world!

Does this mean that Bill can date, if Hillary goes to prison?

It's probably giving you too many hints, but .... now you know the REAL reason the Society's Headquarters were moved from New York City ....

"Q" is anonymous.

"Q" prefers to stay anonymous.

There is a plan.

Believe in the Plan.

Plan for the plan.

JTR

PS:  Pay no attention to the flightless bird in the hole.

You saw nothing.

You heard nothing.

... move along folks ......

I suspect George C. Scott did Patton ...... better than Patton, did Patton.

It also helps a GREAT deal in getting a job, if you are willing to work at poverty wages.

There comes a time in many peoples' lives when it is necessary to survive.

Been there ... done that.

That being said, I have never even heard of a Cardiac Specialist having trouble finding a job.

Being poor is nothing to be ashamed of ... but it has NOTHING to recommend it.

If you want a profound experience, may I suggest touring the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC which will take several days, or the Muppet Museum in Leland. Mississippi, which will take several days driving.

You don't pull on Superman's cape,

You don't spit into the wind.

You don't pull the mask off the Ol' Lone Ranger, and

You don't publicly insult known thugs, mobsters etc.

The Kid could probably win 2017's  Darwin Award, if not already awarded.

I wonder if in Mexico, when a woman temporarily substitutes for a man in the Congregation, if she has to wear a sombrero?

Yeah ....

My allegiance is only to God ... but I will fight with anyone who believes as I do about Freedom and Justice.

It is quite obvious that for the time being, we are on our own .... and we have to do the best we know how.

The only thing necessary for evil to prevail, is Good Men to do nothing.

At least if I screw up, and make a mistake ... it will not cost the Brotherhood 56 MILLION dollars.

When I swim in the Ocean .. I AM shark repellent!

Grrrrrrr !

That's why I am heavily invested in tumbling tumbleweeds.

( ....... visualizes a tumbleweed bouncin' and a blowin' with the sandstorm, across a diorama of Caleb and Sophia.)

For over 40 years, I used to sit at a drafting table, and later at computer monitors, and design things.

... all kinds of things.

Lets say my boss came to seven different designers and asked for us to design something ... anything,

Without rock-solid airtight specifications you might get seven versions of whatever that thing was.

You might get an MP3 player that weighs 20 pounds and looks like a bathroom fixture.

At the time Eve was created there were already millions of pre-humans that evolved, but none directly created by God, until Adam and Eve were created. ( ... a planet full of a million tons and more of fossils make it pretty clear what DID happen .... ).

By the way ... that's where Cain got his wife, and further messed up the gene pool ....)

Jehovah God is not accountable to us as to how WE think he should have done things .... he COULD have made us have a caterpillar stage like butterflies, and that would have been his choice.

The really cool thing about being Almighty God, is the absolute flexibility  and power to do ANYTHING you want, however you see fit.

Second guessing the Almighty God is, by practical definition, an exercise in futility.
