Excellent analysis.

Suicide is a mental illness. You cannot peg a suicide to any one object. If there were no guns in the world, people who are determined to kill themselves would do so with other means. History have shown that to be true. Favorite method of suicide have often been the rope in the olden days......did we banned rope back ...

The requirement for rescue insurance might be a worthwhile discussion, however, the amount of money that is spent annually on SAR in the United States is far down the list of expenses that need mitigating, especially considering its function and purpose.

Chuck, I still dig in Washington and we get black shelled clams all the time. They are usually older larger clams and are called "mossbacks" locally.

Joe Danich, an old timer in the 70's in Girdwood told me he saw this same thing happening since the 40's after he arrived here so it's really nothing new. He said he saw it especially in the alders. We've been on a warming trend ever since the last ice age about 10,000 years ago, a short time in geological history.

Great idea, Lee. I'd do that, but I've already filed that particular atrocity under 'domestic terrorism'.

Rat meat and vermin are also eaten by white Americans living in the Appalachian region. Commissioner Stewart would never complain about the eating habits of white West Virginians who regularly consume rats, raccoons and other animals and characterize the entire white race as vermin eating like he did with Asians here.

Eugene has miles and miles of middle-class suburban single-family homes, now it needs apartments for working-class people.
