For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

That's lil' Benny, but he's huge now. Weighs 20 pounds and he's only 2! He weighs close to what our older two weigh combined. We got another new one, too... He's about four months old... the sweetest cat I've ever met. Benny is an asshole! (but we love him anyway.)de officiis wrote:

Looks very similar to a cat my sister had growing up. But she decided to take the cat with her to the grocery and it escaped from the car, never to be seen again.Kath wrote:That's lil' Benny, but he's huge now. Weighs 20 pounds and he's only 2!

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
A little surprised that this hasn't come up
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-41668665US President Donald Trump's latest attempt to bar citizens of eight countries from entering the US has suffered a second federal court defeat.
Judges in Hawaii and Maryland issued separate temporary restraining orders on the open-ended travel ban.
Both judges cited Mr Trump's campaign description of it as a "Muslim ban".
The policy targets travellers from Iran, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Chad and North Korea, as well as some Venezuelan officials.
Two previous iterations of the ban targeted six Muslim-majority countries, and were widely referred to by Trump officials as a "Muslim ban".
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Donald Trump has been accused of fuelling hate crime with a tweet erroneously linking a rise in the UK crime rate to "radical Islamic terror".
He said crime in the UK had risen by 13% amid the "spread" of Islamist terror - despite the figure referring to all crimes, not just terrorism.
The Labour MP, Yvette Cooper, said the statement was "inflammatory and ignorant", while ex-Labour leader Ed Miliband said Mr Trump was "a moron".
Labour MP Yvette Cooper, chair of the Commons Home Affairs Committee, said Mr Trump's comments could fuel hate crime.
She said: "Hate crime in the UK has gone up by almost 30% and rubbish like this tweet from Donald Trump is designed to provoke even more of it.
"If we are to properly tackle hate crime and every other crime, we have to challenge this kind of nonsense."
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
Calling out people for acts of violence could cause hate crimes
