From what I read, there were possibly 10 shots, all AFTER an agent had taken the victim's gun from its holster. He was unarmed, pinned down by multiple agents. Posed no risk to anyone. He was licenced to carry the weapon under state law. He clearly only had a camera in his hand. This is bringing tRump's planned cancellation of midterm elections one step closer. Goodbye democracy.

That might not have been just parochialism. What WERE you wearing?

I cannot get my head around a V12 outboard motor. It must take some serious engineering to make a transom strong enough to support it without ripping the back off the boat!

Here's one for those who have experience in engine building. Did you know that there is an american production line that makes V12 motors.... for outboards?

But it is the least likely place to be invaded by the mad mango mob. I'll take my chances.

What better place for Madpete, eh?

Is tazzie starting to look more appealing? Whilst the mainland expects 40 degrees, we might reach a more civilised heatwave of 30. We rarely need to turn on the heatpump. What's this boiler thing of which you lament? Sounds like it's as big a moneydrain as an extra child? Edit: Sorry. That's not much of a gripe. But it's the best I can manage in utopia

Not as cultured as Stephen Fry, but is more funny.
