Kevin Connor, a spokesperson for Monterey Bay Aquarium, said Otter 841 is considered a danger to the public because it is ignoring its natural survival instincts, ABC reported.
"When we see this type of behavior exhibited by otters, it is a sign that they no longer have that healthy fear of human beings that allows them to stay safe in the wild away from us," Conner said.
I’m reading your words, Kevin, I am. But my heart is stronger than my brain. It wants that Otter to win.
If they’re going to require historical scholarship when evaluating gun laws, they should not be surprised when that effort exposes the lie that “guns were allowed to be brought anywhere for any reason”
After all, even the famous shootout at the OK Corral happened over enforcement of a regulation prohibiting gun carrying in town.
The required historical scholarship is particularly before the Civil War as after slaves were freed Southern states implemented a series of laws that obviously were meant to disarm free Black Americans. This point is regarded as being a shift away from the original understanding.
OK Corral’s shootout occured in 1881 (after the war).
Also when looking for historical precedent favor is to be given to the commonly accepted practice. So if one town did X and the rest of the country did Y, Y is the correct historical precedent.
Purposive open carry, predicated on a valid purpose, allowed bankers, sheriffs, coachmen, judicial marshals, hunters, or persons who had been threatened, to carry concealed.
Habitual open carry on the other hand was never legal. It was a sign of a lawless, no good place, and was arrestable as a breach of peace, which it undeniably is.
It almost seems like a trap, they are all but saying “please stop protesting we can’t take it any more”, a protest becomes a coup/revolution if the authorities refuse to concede to the demands and are overwhelmed by the protesters
After reading the article, I was quite surprised to learn how often it happens. You would think that people would be more aware of their proximity to the road, because they are standing on it.
There is a scene in the book Ministry of the Future where there is a wet bulb event in India and tons of people flocked to the water to cool down. The water was also like 100°F so the waterways ended up being filled with dead bodies that does from being too hot.
For me it’s a mixture of the same day receipt of the item and the unreliability of Amazon lately.
Amazon does nothing to honor the times they promise. When a “next day” delivery is suddenly a two day delivery they just quietly update the estimate and don’t compensate for the delay. At least buying from a store with local pickup, I’m getting it when I expect.
