When Kirk Clyatt joins Tony Mac, that means it time to all things USA including 

* In the wake of the Florida school shooting, one small school district in Pennsylvania is trying a unique approach to keeping it's classroom safe ... rocks in class ... at first I thought this might be 'fake news', but nope it's real.

* There was shooting last weekend in front of our house ... at least 16 shots, one person shot in the leg, BUT events like these are so common, that basically unless someone is killed in a city like Las Vegas it doesn't even make the local news.

* Trump of course calling for the Death Penalty for major drug dealers ... well is going to start with doctors? Five New York doctors have been charged with receiving more than $800,000 in payments by a pharmaceutical company to prescribe a highly potent and addictive opioid fentanyl to patients whether they needed it or not.

* One man who does NOT think Trump should be impeached is 93 year old Jimmy Carter ... Carter is the only President I've had a chance to spend any extended time with back in the early 90s, perhaps not one of America's best leaders while in office, but an amazing post-Oval Office life.

* Sometimes what seems like a good thing, can be anything but ... Congress overwhelming passed - FOSTA - Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act - the first impact is that if you're looking for love, you can't use Craigslist anymore, well not here in the USA ... checked the Perth site and all is well with the personals section for Australia.

* Just how did the Facebook privacy scandal get so bad? should they have know better? Their privacy manager from 2012, at the time of their IPO, says they should have.

* On the topic of 'Free Speech' a California teacher is out of a job for some anti-military comments to a student that ... you guessed it they were recorded, he is also a City Councilman in the town of Pico Rivera.
