The first recorded use of the word 'foot-ball' in English dates from
1314, when London's mayor prohibited games in the city.
As for laws:
King Henry I, who ruled England from 1100 to 1135, declared that
deaths accidentally caused by practicing archers didn?t count as
murder or manslaughter.
During the reign of Henry III, the 1252 Assize of Arms required that able-bodied men of a certain means between the ages of 15 and 60 be
equipped with a bow and arrows and know how to use them
Tn 1363, King Edward III, declared that able-bodied men must practice archery on holidays.
The Archery Law, enacted that same year, further demanded practice on Sundays.
Edward also outlawed, on pain of imprisonment, watching or
participating in ?vain games of no value,? a wide net that included
handball, football, hurling stones, and cockfighting.

All men in Switzerland today are required to have a military rifle of the correct caliber and know how to use it. In the time of Edward III there was a great deal more3 chance of invasion of England than there is today of someone invading Switzerland.

Countires don't invade Switzerland because the names of
tax-evading criminals might become public. Not because of any
pea-shooters the population might have. Switzerland saves a pack of
money by spending very little on armed forces.
But they do have a cool Popeguard who wear cool stripey uniforms. That must cost something.
Strange that psychopath
and his DOGE didn't figure that out and cut military spending.
I saw a lawn sign on my street today, it was a stars and stripes motif, and all it said was:
AND ONE DAY, JUST LIKE A MIRACLE, HE’LL BE GONE.
That’s all it said. It’s my favorite lawn sign so far.
Wars are fought by psychopaths with computers, missiles and
drones, not rifles.

portion of the population - plus a few congresspeople - that his
simplistic thinking is wise. As we've seen here, they're not swayed by
facts. They are not going away.
The effects of all this will persist for quite a while.

Frank, exactly where have ever repeated even one fact insofar as
President Trump is concerned? If you said what you say in my face you
would spend a very long time in the hospital and you would try to blame
it on me and fail at that as well. You slimy Trump haters have not ONE
SINGLE alternative too what he is doing nor ONE single excuse for what
Biden and Obama did in office. All you have is the voice of hatred of
losing the entire support of the country and the history slave trade of
the Democrats. You are a loser and from Trump's second win you will never
again win one thing.
Now it is time to repeat that one single student complementing you and
forget completely the hundreds leaving your classroom shaking their heads in disbelief.
A proposition that is fair as an alternative to what he is doing is to >request that for the four years he has the presidency, that he not do the >things he is doing.
No, I really don’t need another/new diss scandal from Trump.
I don’t need to see him fly off about something new at another rally.
The chais he is causing is harmful to the economy

IF true, you're correct. However, some of what you wrote isn't born out
by the facts:
- Yes, the markets are in turmoil
- The major indices are Still slightly down for the year, but recovered >substantially from the "Liberation Day Massacre".
- Small business bankruptcies are trending higher by about 4% >(https://www.abi.org/newsroom/bankruptcy-statistics/)
- Inflation has in fact cooled to near the Feds 2% target
The trends and indicators are not good, fundamentals are weak, and
futures are down with trump not having enough of an attention span to
manage the individual trade agreements, to the point that he's back on
his unilateral kick: >https://finance.yahoo.com/news/live/trump-tariffs-live-updates-trump-says-he-will-set-unilateral-tariff-rates-within-weeks-200619527.html
IOW - It's the predicted trump clusterfuck.

https://sfg.media/en/a/us-losing-investor-confidence-dollar-remains-irreplaceable/
Business 101. Not leftist.Exactly.
Businesses need stability, predictability, etc. to plan for inventory and
employment. Trump chaos has eradicated predictability.
I'm not the only one that favors Trump's actions.
And then there’s the market manipulation, if not for immunity granted by
SCOTUS, anyone else would be indicted. When the stock market doesn’t dip
enough for his pals to buy, he puts on heavier tariffs to make the prices
go lower, and then announces pauses to have the prices go back up.
