Yes, they shouldn’t oppose them; they should arm themselves. These people shoot lots of people because they’re allowed to by misguided gun laws and location restrictions.

The American Heart Association
…continues to preach junk science:
The American Heart Association recommends a heart-healthy dietary pattern emphasizing fruits, vegetables, whole grains and other nutritious foods and specifically that at least half of grain consumption should be whole grains. Whole grains provide many nutrients, such as fiber, B vitamins, and minerals, which are removed during the refining process.
No protein, no fat. This is the kind of diet that helped kill my father from his second heart attack decades ago, at age 55.
Hillary’s Email Setup
Only twelve?
But her supporters won’t care; she’s a Democrat. Moreover, she’s a Clinton.
I love this: “How many people who are paying a company to host their data ask the company to stop backing it up? This is where the story gets good.”
[Update later afternoon]
At this point, what difference does it make?
Without the avalanche of distraction, hypocrisy, willful ignorance, and outright lies that the liberal elite and their human centipede press corps employed over the last few decades to ensure their corrupt, mouth-breathing, and/or perverted Democrat heroes are never held accountable, Trump would not be possible. We might still care about quaint things like character, competence, and not being a loathsome piece of human refuse.
But we don’t. Not anymore.
Hillary’s formulation of “Nothing matters, no one cares” is just a little different. For her, it’s “What difference, at this point, does it make?” You know, that comment she made when some congressmen – not including any Democrats – tried to hold her to account for getting four Americans killed and lying to not only their families’ faces but to our faces about it.
And the people who aren’t in Hillary’s trick bag are supposed to care that Trump’s a jerk?
They don’t, by and large. Sure, Trump makes what we conservatives all agree is a distasteful comment insinuating that a federal judge’s rulings would be governed by an inherited characteristic, in this case his ethnicity. The mainstream media goes nuts at how horrible Trump is for assuming that an inherited characteristic might govern someone’s actions in public office. Then a day later, the media experiences a collective climax over the fact that a woman has been nominated, and they think it’s great because that inherited characteristic will govern her actions in public office.
Read the whole thing.
Patti Grace Smith And FAA-AST
@JeffFoust has a good history at The Space Review today. It nicely complements my op-ed on keeping the FAA out of orbit.
Statins
Treating people with them to prevent heart disease is a waste of time (and money). Not news to me, but it’s nice to see more people catching on. I’m still trying to get my brother to get off them.
“The Worst Mass Shooting In History”
Yes, stop saying that, media idiots:
Will you people quit keeping a leaderboard? There are sick f***s watching you that take that as some sort of challenge as they update their .xls spreadsheets.
I have an idea. Let's not ban Muslims, and let's not ban guns. #CrazyIKnow

[Update a few minutes later]
I knew they were racists, but why do Democrats hate gay people so much they want to shoot up their nightclubs?
[Update a while later]
Log Cabin Republicans: The problem isn’t homophobia, or guns, but the homophobia of Islam. The Pink Pistols agree that it’s not about the guns. FWIW.
If Donald Trump Wrote A Research Paper
This is great. I wish I’d done it.
Elon’s Mars Plans
More details are revealed in an interview with Christian Davenport at the WaPo.
[Update a couple minutes later]
And here’s kind of a dumb piece about Mars settlement at Popular Science.
Keep FAA’s Head In The Clouds
My thoughts on why the FAA shouldn’t be regulating spaceflight.
Body Painting
This is amazingly beautiful work.
