    Some wire. The fees on that plus banking regulations must have gone ape over that kind of money.

    If it's within the Fed Wire system from your bank's officer out of your account it's not a problem. But to do that western union? HA..... Im pretty accustomed to the Fed Wire system from inside our credit unions and banking. It's really easy to wire any amount, especially over 10K when necessary so that certain trigger regulations pertaining to over and above certain amounts and the questions and forms that it generates against the person trying to move it is reduced to almost nothing.

    I used to hold a credit union account with about 5 checking accounts seperately. The CU had a rule that I could only "Spend" :Withdraw: or move 600 dollars max per day from a checking account. Having 5 of them meant I could move 3000 dollars in a short time cascading via fed wire to my home bank which could care less if I had accumulated 21K in the mother lode checking account within 7 days via fed wire transfer. But If I tried to walk in and deposit or withdraw 10K or more, then they ask questions and have forms. sheesh.

    At the time 3000 happened to be our house budget for the entire month for everything so... the result was in a few minutes online all bills paid ahead, cash ready to go and waiting down the road when the wire completed at 2Pm...

    We stopped doing that after a certain year because having money in those amounts out of state and on a internet type situation that goes bye bye in a EMP attack along with everything else it's not good.

    Yes, I know that was a ridiculous proposal (perhaps I should've added a [/sarcasm] tag), but it emphasises a point...which I attempted to make by including the "for federal office", since there is a DEFINITE difference in the positions local democrats take vs national democrats. What I was trying to get across is that it isn't the tool used, but rather what is in the heart and mind of the criminal committing the act...and it doesn't do anybody any good to simply focus on the tool. Whether it is a pressure cooker (Boston), bomb (Paris), truck filled with fertilizer (OKC), or in this case a fully automatic firearm, a person with evil in their heart and criminal intentions WILL be able to take innocent lives. When every attack comes from the left, and you have leftist groups espousing the belief that violence becomes necessary if someone disagrees with them, then it makes sense to add scrutiny to members and sympathizers of those leftist organizations when they attempt to purchase a weapon of ANY kind. You have leftist organizations declaring anyone who disagrees with them to be "hate groups", providing justification and encouragement to those who might be teetering on the edge of right vs wrong.

    Violence against someone you disagree with simply because they don't agree with you is NEVER acceptable. When the far left accepts that fact, these domestic incidents will cease to exist.

    The Left is not alone on the use of violence. Or have we forgotten the Clinic bombings by the "Pro-Life" groups (distinctly Right), the growing violence directed towards Jews by Alt Right (distinctly Right) and the ever popular Ku Klux Klan and their lynchings?

    If you'e drawing a line down party lines based on origin I'd say the KKK needs to go on the left side of the aisle.

    The right (and those with innate tendencies to oppress) prefer to gloss over the right & alt-right's transgressions

    Nope. KKK stands for Pro-Christian religious intolerance (much like the Fundamentalists and the Chrisitan Right), stand against civil equalities, despises gays....pretty much all the darkness of the Right Wing conservatives.

    Just because you type it doesn't make it so. Sorry.

    You want to talk about darkness? Based on the CDC numbers for 2013, 664,435 unborn children were murdered. There's more than enough blood to go around.

    Partner you need to read up on your history. About what party actually started the kkk. What bgrowing violence towards the jews by the "alt-right"? The only ones I actually see slamming the Jews is the fools from the far left. Like the left does not call those idiots that riots and tears thing up, the right disavows the pitiful kkk idiots. Which come to think of it, when was the last time they used violence?
