Mr. Gardener’s criminal career has quit growing.
Poke the Mama Bear too many times and you’ll get the “Claw”. Is there an FSN for that? Or a separate Whizz Wheel score?
The nation won’t benefit from a prolonged war, but the MIC certainly will…along with the funeral industry.

Pulled the trigger on one of those COP derringers, unloaded the remaining 3 rounds, cleaned it, and sold it immediately.
Speaking of guns, here’s a story on stolen American Legion M1 Garands, involving the Legion Commander. Talk about another scumbag in charge of a Veterans Club.
