I will cover the outside of my spaceship with mirrors. Take that, space lasers!

Jews in space or Enco in orbit?

Laser weapons go the cosmic speed limit so when ya see the weapon deployed you destroy it over enemy territory. If the weapons are sophisticated enough they make the offense obsolete unless the O has a diversion or dummy that makes the laser not see the actual weapon.

I’ve shown this before.  Pre-human australopithecine males had enormous canines compared with females, until they abruptly became almost even when the human ancestor arrived, 4-6 million years ago.

Human males are a lot le…[Read more]

I think it must hurt something awful to be shot. Whether it is worse than a longbow delivering an arrow i can’t say. I know it depends on the specific weapon though. Hatchet in the heart? Bad Thoughts. Have ya seen that on netflix? It is funny albeit disgusting.

The great bulk of violence, gun violence included, is perpetrated by the male gender.

That’s true.  Most violence comes from men.  I put it down to the sexual competition between males.  That’s why they are slightly larger.

Do you mean a Y chromosome? XX, XY? I see your point: gun violence is almost exclusively male.

Robert, That was some interesting reading in the database. One thing I note from the database is that only 17 shootings were motivated by “race,” even though 1966-1979 were some the more racially tense and violent times of the years in the database. Only 113 were “Domestic with Targeted Victim” even with sexist/…

To the best of my knowledge, information and memory i asked the following:

Are there any countries with widespread gun ownership and relatively low rates of school shootings?

It is hard to understand how Israeli citizens are so underarmed? Underarmed? Is that even a word? And after the latest incursion, bloodlust, sexual and mental depravity of…[Read more]

I don’t buy Occam’s Razor all the time.  I think it’s artificial.  Something’s the way it is, not necessarily the simplest way.

Some countries with widespread gun ownership and relatively low rates of school shootings include:
Switzerland: Switzerland has a high rate of gun ownership, largely due to its tradition of a citizen militia. However, it has significantly lower rates of gun violence compared to the US, particularly in schools. Factors that contribute to this…[Read more]

K-12 School Shooting Database – online

Includes gang shootings, domestic violence, shootings at sports games and afterhours school events, suicides, fights that escalate into shootings, and accidents.

Quantum Leap: Google Claims Its New Quantum Computer Provides Evidence That We Live In A Multiverse

If we arm every ape/human with a gun, what could go wrong? The NRA has an entire anti-statistics department working overtime to make 1+1=3. Because 6.3 school shootings a week keeps the kids awake and alert.
