Born under one law, to another bound;
Vainly begot, and yet forbidden vanity,
Created sick, commanded to be sound."

(Yes, it's satire.)
Too bad.  I wan't one for my book shelves.  It's not like I need to hide a gun or drugs.  I just think it's cool.  I would put a little note inside so whoever opened it would see my note that says, "Fuck You."

(Yes, it's satire.)
Satire?  Bummer.  That was the first actually useful looking bible I've ever seen -- I mean, you could store things in it and not just waste bookshelf space!

Actually practical.  In 1478 in Florence, a primitive handgun was hidden in a large Bible, brought to church by an assassin, for an attempted assassination of one of the Medici brothers (then ruling Florence) by the opponents, the Pazzi family.  No Romeo or Juliet involved ;-)

That is the problem with delegation in any organization.  The underlings sometimes exceed their authority.  If the National Guard had been involved in combat, Esper doing that would be treason.  As it was, nobody was hurt.

What about .. my experience with criminals (Dems)?  I have been fortunate, too much White privilege.  Don't bother me, you won't like it.  Same as if a Democrat came by trying to get me to register as a Democrat.  Mail is OK, goes with the rest of the junk mail.

Ask the pregnant woman who he and two others broke into her house, and George (a criminal) held her at gun point with the gun to her belly.  Just another Dem attempting another abortion.  I hope every Dem home gets broken into.  I don't hope you are all raped and murdered.  I do want all of you to burn in Hell, but no problem if you are an atheist.  Religious Dems however ...

Do y'all really want no police, and have White militias go around killing people because of their name on a voter list?  Seems self destructive, like voting Dem, or taking an overdose of drugs.

"According to data compiled by The Washington Post, American police killed a total of 1,004 people in 2019. Of those, 371 were white, and 236 were black.
Of the 371 whites killed by police, 20 of them were unarmed at the time. Of the 236 blacks killed by police, 10 of them were unarmed." ... yes, White folk should riot now.  Burn down Republican cities (Democrats burn down Democrat cities).  Or maybe they don't because Republicans aren't psychopaths.

Way to go NC!  In retaliation, Trump will send the Federal Military and equipment, just so you know who's the boss.

Ordinarily, Trump would not send the military for a memorial service, but Skin Heads, Nazis, and and White Supremacists from the Charlotte debacle were not available to him on such short notice.

Funny enough, I did hollow out a babble which I used to store my pot. Took it on our graduation trip. Our chaperone - also our principal- came into our room one night complaining that he heard we were smoking dope. Searched the room but obviously not the obvious place to stash pot. He would never had thought one would be so “evil” as to hide pot in a babble.

Celebrate every criminal, otherwise you are a bigot ;-(  Remember David Dorn.  Remember who the Dems really are.

"Minneapolis bans chokeholds after George Floyd’s death" ... only smart move to happen from all this.

If that was real (and not paranoid fantasy) ... the Skin Heads would have killed hundreds of communists at Charlotte.

I have smelt pot smoke several times.  If you were smoking pot in your room, he would have been able to smell it.  Just like in the boy's lavatory in HS.  If the smoke was heavy enough, he couldn't have smelt the fresh pot in your hiding place.
