If these guys are such hot poo poo how come they couldn't figure out a member of their battalion was a kiddy fiddler going through a court martial? Maybe they should spend more time doing recon and lest time talking to the press. Seems like this guy doesn't really know poo poo about what steps, if any, the command had taken during this period.

Edit: Though the more I think about it the more I wonder why I would ever give anyone the benefit of the doubt.

In casual parlance it's just called SWCS and pronounced "swick".

As for how they didn't know, not everyone in Group is tabbed. If you're airborne qualified and in a support MOS you'll end up with Group or USASOC eventually.

Tab protecting is dumb, dangerous poo poo. I'd equate it to how cops will cover for each other to the ends of the earth, until they absolutely have to do something about it because someone outside their little community caught one of them doing something wrong.

Princess Dumbass of Arizona went on Seth Meyers last night, and he pressed her on her attacks on Ilhan Omar. Her husband responded with a bunch of tweets that were crude, homophobic, and then he called Meyers a "cuck". He later deleted them and got really salty with the Daily Beast when they asked for a comment. I didn't think they could possibly find someone dumber than Hasselbeck, but they did.

quote:

A woman showed up to the CIA headquarters and demanded to speak with "Agent Penis" earlier this week, and perhaps most shocking of all, she is not from Florida.

According to the criminal complaint, 58-year-old Jennifer G. Hernandez arrived at the CIA's visitor center on the afternoon of May 3 and when approached by a security officer, presented her Iowa identification card, asked them to return her North Carolina ID card, and requested "to speak to Agent Penis."

Yes, that's literally in the criminal complaint. Unfortunately, the CIA doesn't ever comment on its employees so we may never know whether there is in fact an Agent Penis somewhere deep in the bowels of Langley, protecting all of us from danger.

The May 3 encounter was actually one of many, according to the complaint. ...

It's only a loophole if you're a cop or a district attorney.

FL law makes possession of the chemical psilocybin illegal, but does not reference mushrooms. It's improper to impute knowledge of mushroom species and their possible illegal chemical constituents to a person that merely possesses mushrooms. Unless a person demonstrates some knowledge that mushrooms in their possession contain psilocybin, they can't be found guilty of possessing psilocybin. E.g., you board a guy's boat and see he's made his own psilocybin grow operation from psilocybin mushroom spores* he tells you he ordered from California, you've met the knowledge requirement
Florida could amend the statute to include possession of the 400 or so psilocybin containing mushroom species, but they haven't. (and might still run afoul of the knowledge problem, since it's kind of like banning beta-carotene; there's all sorts of different plants that contain it)

*Legal many places because they don't contain any psilocybin.

So basically if a rancher has shrooms growing on his farm he can't be busted? Since they just grown there anyway.
