the shooter

it seems everyone is pissed at the navy for not doing DUE DILIGENCE ON SECURITY CHECK ON SHOOTER. this is all fine and dandy but if the navy had done a thorough background check and denied a security clearance to mr alexis would the world have been a safer place? shit no, there still would have been a crazy man walking around with lots of guns. in fact, had he been denied a security clearance i suspect he would have been even more paranoid and heard even more voices. if he couldn't get into the naval base would he have said, "gosh i better don't shoot anyone since i haven't got a valid security clearance?" once again, shit no! i think he would have taken his guns to a school or shopping mall and potentially done greater damage.

there will now be a great hue and cry for better background checks for security clearance passes but will this make the world a safer place? will all people denied a security pass be sent to the funny farm to be drugged and cured of their lunacy? shit no, they'll fall between the cracks and the mass shootings will continue. at the present time me and the roo are preoccupied with restoring an equitable distribution of global wealth so we will not be able to contribute to a solution, but i do see a possible solution to this crisis on the horizon. the king, aka bbc, recently did a post on THE UPCOMING ENVIROMENTAL DISASTER. that's the only solution i see to the problem of crazy people, enviromental disaster decimating the human race.

i love you sons of bitches,

There'll be fewer crazy people after an environmental disaster but there'll also be fewer sane ones. I doubt the odds will change much.

WHEN WAS THE ONLY TIME I EVER PACKED A GUN IN THE NAVY? When I was handed one to protect officers fishing on a stream for salmon in Alaska in case a bear came along. Now I'm wondering why the fucking officers didn't pack thier own fucking guns. Privliged I guess.

The point I was trying to make is that Americans think they are better at everything, and worth more because of it, we're so full of it. He'll get a premium price for touting his pork that way.

30 day parts and labor guarantee? Never heard of that happening here if they fuck up on your teeth.

Farmer Giles said...

Billy, once again, the sad and unfortunate event that occurred in America on Tuesday, highlights the mass hysteria that's associated with people who suffer from schizophrenia, hear voices or suffer from mental illness. It'd appear that yet again, not only have the general public been let down by what can only be described as a drastic systematic failure, but, also, the bloke responsible for the killing of 12 innocent people had also been let down by a system that was supposed to treat and help him.

Why was he allowed to work in the Navy yard, when people were fully aware of his illness, which would appear to be paranoid schizophrenia? Why was he not being treated either in a mental health unit or being monitored by health professionals whilst living in the community?

They're lots of mitigating circumstances here, lots of circumstantial mistakes have, and will, continue to be made.

People will say that it's another American gun-culture thing. Too many guns, too many disturbed people in the community, too many people eager to use these weapons, albeit in fits of rage, as acts of revenge, because they hear voices, to be seen as heroic, following, or trying to outshine and outdo previous acts of a similar nature, or for whatever other reason. It's always going to happen. Guns in the community, especially those that're legal to buy, are extremely dangerous - end of. People who're not receiving the correct treatment for mental illness are also likely to be extremely unpredictable and even dangerous. Believe it or not, the vast majority of voice hearers are harmless. Yet, given an incident like this, and the media has a field day. All people with schizophrenia are therefore branded and deemed to be dangerous killers, which quite simply put, just isn't true. The same sort of coverage and alarm happens over here in the UK. When someone with schizophrenia kills someone, then ALL people who suffer from voice hearing or who are labelled as having the aforementioned illness become potentially dangerous killers. What a crock of shit!

Bloody hell, couldn't everyone be seen as a potentially dangerous killer or a threat to themselves or others if the circumstances in which they find themselves become excessively dire and extreme. How many sane people go insane or appear to go/become insane when behind the wheel or a car, especially in what's called a road-rage incident.

I fully agree with the points and the argument that you've expressed and put across, Billy, mate, and found this article to be interesting, fascinating and at the very same time, extremely sad and worrying.

Fuck me, I've got mental health issues, but both myself and the authorities don't deem me to be a threat to society, i.e. to others or to myself. This is where the stigma that arises from people who currently have, or have, in the past, suffered from mental health issues is blown out of all proportion. Naturally, when things like this happen and when the media go to town, and more-often-than-not, publish facts that're totally untrue and exaggerated, then that's when people become scared and as a result of this fear, all people who fall under the 'umbrella' of having mental health issues, no matter how mild or severe, become ostracised and are not only persecuted by most people, but are also seen to be highly dangerous, out-of-control killers, etc., etc..

I could continue, but sadly, incidents like these and incidents of a lesser degree, happen somewhere, and for some reason every day. It's probably also worth mentioning that some people are naturally evil, whereas others, unfortunately are ill, often, through no fault of their own. Society needs to help those who need, and ask for help.

To You & Yours, I Wish You a Happy & Peaceful Night!

Take Care & Stay Lucky!

Peace,

Steve...

billy pilgrim said...

farmer giles - for the truly mentally disturbed there is a good chance that all the help in the world will not help them. vancouver is a wealthy city at the present time with several hundred homeless that are mentally ill. they refuse treatment or soon check themselves out of treatment and are back on the streets. i see them every day.

granted, they are not being offered gold standard health care. one of the problems is the lack of family doctors that act as advocates for the mentally ill as we go more and more to medical clinics where you might get a different doctor each visit and as a result no relationship is developed between patient and doctor. my longtime family doctor retired several years ago and it took me a few months to find a family doctor who i really liked but after a few years he gave up his practice and took up a job with the city so once again i was looking for a family doctor. i was lucky to find a very good one.

one of the specialists i deal with has lots of patients that are unable to find a family doctor and was surprised that i was able to find one on two separate occasions. i guess i still have a wee bit of your roguish charm has worn off on me.

on a more pleasant note, my new tooth is a beauty and fits like a glove!

Geez, how often do you have to see a doctor? I've seen damn few of them in my 70 years.

As do FIATs

Heh!
I will not sit by idly as you denigrate FIAT!
The Tutor bought a very slightly used red 1970 FIAT 124 Sport Spider in 1972 when in he was still in high school. He drove it well into his first degree at U of T.
A veritable "chick magnet" it was!
Funny though, he was the only person under 40 who drove, or could afford, one of those things back then.

harry said...

Who's denigratin' ?

FIAT have been my favorite automobile for forty + years.

850s, 128s, X1/9s, 124s, 131s.


FIAT brought DOHC technology to the great unwashed.

FIAT taught the nips everything they know about building automobiles.

BBC said...

Pfft…. In 1970 we could pick chicks up driving almost anything, the cocksuckers wasn’t so hard to get along with back then.

Anonymous said...

Apologies Harry.
I thought you were inferring that FIAT was somewhat 'less than' that other famous Italian penis-extension. You actually meant that they were 'like in kind'. Yes?

Alas, The Tutor switched to SAAB during his master's degree - much better suited for the Canadian winter as it manifests in Ontario.

BBC said...

Harry knows his cars better than I know many of them even though I was a master mechanic. There was just a lot of them I wasn’t that interested in.

I love my Dodge Dakota, it hauls my stuff well and is easy to fix.

billy pilgrim said...

my daughter likes those new little fiats, the other car she likes is the cadillac sts, they seem to be at opposite ends of the spectrum, go figure.

of course she's only worked about 30 days in the past 5 years so either one might be a little out of her price range.

the older my hyundai gets, the more i like it. ruby likes it too.

BBC said...

There's a couple of those little fiats here, looks like they would get good fuel mileage, don't know about fixing them though when something goes wrong.

The cadillac sts has a hell of an engine in it if ya want a pecker extension.

Billy did thus respondeth in such a ferocious manner, "for the truly mentally disturbed there is a good chance that all the help in the world will not help them. vancouver is a wealthy city at the present time with several hundred homeless that are mentally ill. they refuse treatment or soon check themselves out of treatment and are back on the streets. i see them every day."

Billy, mate, I couldn't agree with you more on the above comment[s], mate, though I can't speak for Vancouver, as believe it or not, I don't live there, my friend! :-P There're 100's of homeless people in my own, once thriving, but now almost now totally decimated industrial home-town [populous, Approx, 70,000?], which, to be totally fair and honest, mate, is a real shit-hole, typical of the many once thriving industrial graveyards that exist in the north of the UK. A lot of the industries that existed were decimated by Thatcher and her Tory cohorts; the shipbuilding industry, the steel making industry, the mining industry [though not in the north], etc.. In fact, my beloved home town even got a mention in today's Guardian , one of our more up-market papers, plus a mention in numerous working-class tabloids, plus a feature on Google News, etc..

Believe it or not, I actually used to work in the DDH up until the late 80's. Now, if you're looking for an establishment that's guilty of being classed as being used for the production of weapons of mass destruction, then look no further, that's it. All the Trident class subs, and the likes were built in that enormous fuckin' death-shed. It was funny as fuck, especially the hypocrisy involved. Loads of us had to earn a living there, but were wholeheartedly opposed to nuclear armaments. I remember finishing work in the place one particular Friday [in the early 80's], and being in London on a CND march lead by Monsignor Bruce Kent on the Saturday. Have to admit, however, that after a couple of hour's marching, about a dozen of us got pissed-off and went and got pissed-up round London. We weren't too popular when we'd delayed the coach we'd travelled down to London on by two/three hours, as they had to wait for us. We were shit-faced, and the organisers made us piss in bottles all the way back - and rightly so!

Anyway, back to the point in hand, mate. "for the truly mentally disturbed there is a good chance that all the help in the world will not help them." Yeah, that's true, my friend.

"vancouver is a wealthy city at the present time with several hundred homeless that are mentally ill. they refuse treatment or soon check themselves out of treatment and are back on the streets." Over here, those on the streets will generally end up being arrested for something or other, and will then be referred to a specialist treatment unit, that's if there's beds available. If they're severely mentally ill, then they get 'sectioned' under The Mental Health Act, and are only released when they're deemed to be mentally stable enough to be released. However, many people with severe mental health issues slip through the 'net', and mistakes are also made when it comes to releasing those who've been 'sectioned'.

The GP/doctor situation's pretty much the same, here, Billy. It's fuckin' useless, and not fit for purpose. Glad to hear that the new tooth is a beauty and fits like a glove, mate. I was gonna comment that it's probably comparable to a Trojan Extra Large condom fitting on my humongous cock, but thought that stooping so low as make such a lewd comment would be somewhat kind of childish and boastful! :-P

Still hate U2, mate? :-P Nice one!

Talking of Fiats, just cleaned my 500 Turbo this afternoon! :-P

If you recall, pilgrim - you well-into-forgetfulness-oldster - The Tutor sold ALL his BBRY stock just prior to the unveiling of the B10 software and handset on January 30, 2013. He has not owned it since. He also purchased, a few weeks prior to that, a load of Netflix stock which appreciated in value 40% in just a few days and then he sold those too.
After liquidating both positions, he used the grossly avaricious profits to purchase Tesla(TSLA) stock at about $37.50 a share. He sold his ample stake in TSLA for an average of about $170.00 a share a few weeks ago. TSLA closed at $183.39 yesterday, so The Tutor could have made even more, but he is inherently risk-averse and not greedy.
So far this year, The Tutor has probably 'earned' more 'unneeded' money than your "billing-up-to-16-hours-a-day" Sonny has. And he has done so by "billing-up-to-20 minutes-a-month"

The Tutor has never owned a mobile telephone, of any flavour, ever.

billy pilgrim said...

i wasn't talking about shares, i was wondering if the tutor was a patriotic canadian and was using a blackberry phone. you answered my question after boasting of the tutors financial acumen. no mobile phones.

i've been rasslin with a kirby vacuum cleaner all day after taking it apart to clean the head etc.

i currently do not love that son of a bitch vacuum cleaner.

can the tutor fix a kirby. the king is currently away so i'm lost at sea.

oh yeah, it's a dirty fucking job. i'm all dusty and sweaty. sonny returned from the yukon for 1 day and then flew to montreal for some bullshit reason.

it's just like that cat's cradle song:

"I'd love to, Dad, if I can find the time
You see my new job's a hassle and kids have the flu
But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad
It's been sure nice talking to you

Anonymous said...

I wasn't boasting. I was complaining and channelling the spirit of BBC as I did so. BBC is such a successful blogger and commenter throughout the Internet, I thought I might try my hand at mimicking his style. Maybe one day I too could be 'popular'.

The Tutor has no financial acumen, despite his MBA, he just guesses really well. And consults a "Black Ju Ju" Witchdoctor when he's in New Orleans servicing Leslie.

The Tutor, and yours truly, are stateless individuals. It is technically not possible for either of us, at this juncture, to be patriotic anything. The Tutor was born in The Canadas. I was not.

billy pilgrim said...

yes, the king does have charisma and more importantly, he could probably fix my vacuum with a paper clip.

does the tutor consult a magic 8 ball?

Consult or consume?

Don't know, never been that far south. But the boxed wine at the shooting range was rather nice.

Vacuum's make interesting alternate cocksuckers, is that how you wore your kirby out? It's pretty damn hard to wear a kirby out, unless you never change the bag, that willl kill one.

billy pilgrim said...

i bought it used for $100 about 30 years ago and it's always been a bit finicky.

after a few hours playing around i discovered that the problem was the safety switch on the front. a new safety switch is over $50. there are 4 wires going into the switch and i've eliminated the yellow wire as being unnecessary so i'm wondering if i can just connect 2 wires and see what happens?

otherwise i'll buy another used one. i'd like to keep the old one though, i have an emotional attachment to it.

The switch provides two different speeds providing what attachment is on it If it's over 30 years old it doesn't owe you anything, get a new one.

I bought a new G4 about 15 years ago, I'll never wear it out in the time I have left on this rock. I buy G3 bags for it, they are cheaper and work just as well.

billy pilgrim said...

holy shit, how much did you pay for a new one?

BBC said...

500 bucks, I opened my wallet and said, "I'll give you 500 bucks, take it or leave it." He took it. I didn't give a shit one way or the other, my older kirby still worked just fine.

I suppose they sold my trade in for 2 or 3 hundred so that kept them in the game as it was still a good unit.

Anonymous said...

And only a fucking idiot would ever buy new, disposable bags for a vacuum cleaner. The Tutor has used the same paper bag for over 25 years now. He just removes the bag from the machine when it is half-full and then goes outside and flails it about until it is empty of dirt, belly-button lint, epidermis slough, Leslie's pubic hair and myriad toe nails. Then he re-attaches it to the machine with the nifty rubber "O" rings.

Aquiraans is a cocksucking bitch but of course I can't answer his question as I don't have wiring diagram on that unit.

But Billy won't hurt anything by trying his suggestion.

BBC said...

A few years back a dumb cocksucker burnt her kirby up cuz she never changed the bag, she gave it to me so I have a switch for you for the shipping. If it is the same switch, does yours have two buttons on it?

If you push the lower button it goes in alone, if you push the top button in both go in, is yours like that? I think this is a newer kirby so it may be different than yours.

I can take a picture of it and email it to you if you want to see what it is like.

You don't need a wiring diagram you fucking idiot!
All CSA approved appliances use a standard yellow, black, red, green or white wiring code for switches.

You are really stupid BBC. This is like your stupidity with the cedar shake and shingle boondoggle. You can't bluff your way through shite when The Tutor is around.

BBC said...

Well, bitch, you fix his vacuum and I'll just sit here and work on my guns.

billy pilgrim said...

it just has one switch. when you attach the powerhead it depresses the switch which which allows the electricity to flow.

i was thinking of rigging some sort of wire to hold it down but if the tutor can tell me which wires to connect, that would be better.

whilst monkeying around with it i cut my index finger which was no big deal until i flossed my teeth. i cut the area where i wrap the floss around and flossing requires precision!

BBC said...

Your vacuum is much older than the unit I have parts for so I didn't think it would work for you.

Yeah, I'll let the tutor tell you want wires to put together, after, it's all just standard shit.

Well, it's just a safety switch so if that is the problem you should be able to bypass it.
