No more chances, final warning! I got no answers, final warning! You're going out, final warning! How do you like that sound, its your final warning!
Conan: Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That’s what’s important! Valor pleases you, Crom… so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!

any bitching, and I mean even the slightest little peep of animosity towards this initiative will be so comically delicious with irony it will be hard to enjoy it all in one sitting. As I said, I'd have been against something like this before, now, # no, I'm all on board. Find me the democrat, and we can find the crime.
Lavrentiy Beria, the most ruthless and longest-serving secret police chief in Joseph Stalin’s reign of terror in Russia and Eastern Europe, bragged that he could prove criminal conduct on anyone, even the innocent. “Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” was Beria’s infamous boast.

Tit for tat is an English saying meaning "equivalent retaliation". It developed from "tip for tap", first recorded in 1558.[1]
It is also a highly effective strategy in game theory. An agent using this strategy will first cooperate, then subsequently replicate an opponent's previous action. If the opponent previously was cooperative, the agent is cooperative. If not, the agent is not. This is similar to reciprocal altruism in biology.
War
The tit-for-tat inability of either side to back away from conflict, for fear of being perceived as weak or as cooperating with the enemy, has been the cause of many prolonged conflicts throughout history.
"An eye for an eye" (Biblical Hebrew: עַיִן תַּחַת עַיִן, ʿayīn taḥaṯ ʿayīn)[a] is a commandment found in the Book of Exodus 21:23–27 expressing the principle of reciprocal justice measure for measure. The earliest known use of the principle appears in the Code of Hammurabi, which predates the Hebrew Bible.[1]
The law of exact retaliation (Latin: lex talionis),[2] or reciprocal justice, bears the same principle that a person who has injured another person is to be penalized to a similar degree by the injured party.
The phrase “revenge is a dish best served cold” means that taking revenge at a later date is more satisfying and effective than enacting it immediately123. It implies that revenge can be better planned and executed if it is cold-blooded, unexpected, and premeditated13. The expression also supports the idea that vengeance can be more enjoyable if it is done the proper way3.
A New York state senator is pushing back against a law he originally voted for amid his own fight against accusations of rape, arguing now that the law is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Democratic State Sen. Kevin Parker argued in a court filing earlier this month that the Adult Survivors Act, a law that he voted in favor of, was unconstitutional, according to a report from the New York Post.
Parker’s argument comes as he faces a lawsuit over allegations he raped Olga Jean-Baptiste in 2004 while the two were working together on Haiti relief efforts, accusations that Parker has denied.

Look forward to massive pushback against all the stupid rules that have been implemented just to get Trump as they are applied to the pushers as well. This one was implemented to help try Trump in the Carroll sexual harassment case.

Turns out, things are going to get even crazier. The left have certainly done a job on this country and it's people. ALL of them. As they say, the rain falls on us all.
