Look roomy, don't they? 
The best part is they only run about $29,000 U.S. dollars!
 
If I had to drive one of these, I choose this one:
 
It's priced at $399.00 well equiped!

Deniers Of Global Warming Conference

   National Review Online's Thomas Sowell talks about the upcoming skeptical/deniers conference, the International Conference On Climate Change.
 
This will be one of the rare opportunities for the media to hear the other side of the story — for those old-fashioned journalists who still believe that their job is to inform the public, rather than promote an agenda.
The bigger problem is that this has long since become a crusade rather than an exercise in evidence or logic. Too many people are too committed to risk it all on a roll of the dice, which is what turning to empirical evidence is.

Those who have a big stake in global-warming hysteria are unlikely to show up at the conference in New York, and unfortunately that includes much of the media.
I posted on this earlier this year, making the same claim. The media as a whole will completely skip this event.

Fake Gunman Training

   Snowflakes In Hell had this tidbit yesterday. It seems that even with what they thought was ample warning, they still forgot to tell the  instructor the drill would take place in his classroom.
 
   This is the official word from the university itself.
 
“We did not inform that particular class per se, but it was a learning experience beyond table top experiences where every person knows what is going to happen next. Unfortunately we learned lessons from frightened students that result when live scenarios are carried out. However, we want our campus to be ready in case of such an event,” Gilchrist said.

University counselors remain available for any students who were troubled by the drill.
 
If this is not a lawsuit waiting to happen, then I don't know what is. Actually, it was an excellent drill because they got real results. And as snowflakes said, unfortunantly, it doesn't sound like one person in that classroom was interested in fighting back or defending him/herself.
They were just prepared to die. That is sad really. What happened to courage in our country, or is the left run university simply robbing that from this generation with their anti-gun, reason with everybody, pacifist attitudes.
