Okay we're not really doing much of either.  The knife law thing is a bit silly thought IMO.  I carry around a knife that has a 3 inch locking blade :o and use it as a pocket knife.  That'd get me nicked by the bobbies in no time in old Blighty.

The fact that a knife with a locking blade is illegal did seem surprising, as I do have one of those I carry when I'm backwoods camping, but most of the rest of British knife laws seem sensible (but not the rounded tip one).

Our governor resigned.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Our governor is Jewish and he blamed George Soros.  This was really weird.  Two stories  also appear that probably inform the governor's decision to resign.  The General Assembly attempted to subpoena some records my Greitens mysterious backers.  Greitens lawyers tried to stop it.  Today that failed and a Judge said the documents had to be handed over.  It was also reported that the FBI was already involved and looking at him for campaign finance violations.  Taking donations from foreign citizens.  About two hours after Greiten's announced he would resign the prosecutor's office involved in the felony invasion of privacy accusation announced that she and and Greitens lawyers "reached a fair and just resolution of the pending charges."  That sounds like a plea.

Why is that weird? Soros isn't in the habit of backing Jewish Republicans.

I don't think one has to be anti-Semitic to indulge in conspiracy theories regarding the Democrats' most prominent donor.

He is only the most prominent in the minds of anti-Semites.

British laws generally run on common sense.
A camping knife on a street corner will get you in trouble.
A camping knife when you're obviously camping in the countryside is fine.

Is that why the Iranians hate him?  And the Russians?  And the Hungarians?  Because of his donation to the Democrats?

Over here both the Spanish alt-right and the Catalan alt-right have managed to blame Soros for being behind/undermining Catalan independence.  :lol:
