Now if someone wants to kill themselves because they have a treatable mental health issue I would hope they could get treatment before they commit the act. That's why I'm saying don't discourage them from seeking treatment out of fear that they'll lose their right to own a gun! D'oh! You're way, every current gun owner with a mental illness is at a higher risk to commit suicide because their choice is a). Seek help, but lose their gun, or b). Don't seek help and keep their gun.

Your argument only makes sense if you think there are more mentally ill people trying to buy a gun today than there are current gun owners who might currently have or in the future have a mental illness. I think the latter group is far > than the former. Do you disagree?

My wife, concerned as a wife would be, asked me after I emerged from the bathroom, "How are you doing?"

"Best so far," I said. "Best so far."

While these stories add a layer of intrigue to what we already know, I see absolutely nothing happening or coming from these developments.

As long as this administration, which includes Sessions, still crushes all dissent from within (including the intel community), this will all fall on deaf ears.

Both maddening and saddening.

Whoops! Okay. I thought the law was that you'd lose your FOI card if diagnosed with a mental health issue. I stand corrected on that. But I still think you'll have a significant portion of the population who doesn't yet own a gun who might be reluctant to seek psychiatric treatment out of fear that they'll never be able to own a gun. Do you disagree with that?

Then he absolutely can not be attorney general. Forgetting such things would make him wholly incompetent.

Is the last lestat post more or less dangerous than banging your head against the wall?

That would be a tough response to the written questions and answers part.

If he just forgot, WHY DIDN'T HE SAY SOMETHING AFTER FLYNN WAS FIRED. THIS IS A COVER UP.

By the way I like that lestat is a liberal yet I am not. Outside of Lou I must be the most conservative/moderate poster here. Dan, Lestat, Tsao... I'm tiring of their leftist propaganda.

T***p has doubled down bigly with his admin members. He never wanted to even fire Flynn until Pence made him. Sessions ain't going nowhere. He's so embedded with Bannon and Miller and the anti-immigration policy of the administration. Like I said this is interesting but nothing will happen. I wouldn't call it a non-story but it's definitely not a blow to Sessions' position as AG and within the administration. They will continue to lie and lie. It's up to Congress and possibly even Obama stepping back into the spotlight to produce an actual investigation.
