Now You Can Buy A Bulletproof Blanket Specifically Made For Kids To Use During School Shootings
It’s come to this. We’ve now had so many mass shootings that entrepreneurs see space in the market for a bulletproof blanket, made specifically to shield small children from gunfire.
The Bodyguard Blanket, made by a company called ProTecht, is a bulletproof 5/16-inch pad, made from the same materials used by our military, except it’s for kids. They even come in different sizes.
If mass shootings weren’t such an integrated part of our culture, you’d think this was an SNL skit or an Onion article. Kids are being gunned down in their 1st grade classrooms, but what can we do? No we’re not talking about gun laws, just arm your children with these bulletproof shields, you’ll sleep easier at night.

U.S. Marshals Seize Cops’ Spying Records to Keep Them From the ACLU
1. use a simple NDA to annul the US constitution:
(…) Recently, the Tallahassee police department revealed it had used stingrays (Note: IMSI catcher, a cellphone spying device) at least 200 times since 2010 without telling any judge because the device’s manufacturer made the police department sign a non-disclosure agreement that police claim prevented them from disclosing use of the device to the courts. (…)
2. and then a proven method from the wild wild west to disguise it:
(…) In the Sarasota case, the U.S. Marshals Service claimed it owned the records Sarasota police offered to the ACLU because it had deputized the detective in the case, making all documentation in the case federal property. Before the ACLU could view the documents Sarasota had put aside for them, the agency dispatched a marshal from its office in Tampa to seize the records and move them to an undisclosed location.(…)
Done.

(…) When people need to kick back, have fun, and party, I will be there, unlike your pathetic fonts. While Gotham is at the science fair, I’m banging the prom queen behind the woodshop. While Avenir is practicing the clarinet, I’m shredding “Reign In Blood” on my double-necked Stratocaster. While Univers is refilling his allergy prescriptions, I’m racing my tricked-out, nitrous-laden Honda Civic against Tokyo gangsters who’ll kill me if I don’t cross the finish line first. I am a sans serif Superman and my only kryptonite is pretentious buzzkills like you. (…)

Surfende Abgeordnete: Bundestag will Daten nur noch sieben Tage speichern (SpOn):
(…) Die interne Datenspeicherpraxis im Bundestag wird reformiert. Die Obleute der sogenannten IuK-Kommission einigten sich auf eine Änderung der bestehenden Regeln. So sollen die Verbindungsdaten von Abgeordneten und ihren Mitarbeitern statt drei Monate künftig nur noch sieben Tage gespeichert werden. (…)
Erst kürzlich war bekannt geworden, dass der Bundestag sämtliche Kommunikationsdaten der Abgeordneten rund drei Monate lang speichert. Die Regelungen stammen aus dem Jahr 2008, in den Fokus rückte die Speicherpraxis jedoch erst im Zuge der Affäre um Sebastian Edathy. (…)
6 Monate Voratsdatenspeicherung für alle fordern und gleichzeitig die eigene Datenspeicherung auf 7 Tage reduzieren, weil man sich beobachtet fühlt. Noch mehr kann man das Wahlvolk eigentlich kaum verspotten.
