1. a tool

   An officer’s tool (also known as an A-tool, rex tool, or lock puller) is a forcible entry device used by firefighters and other first responders. Officer’s tools are designed to completely remove cylindrical locks from doors without causing major structural damage, allowing for direct access to the internal locking mechanism. Officer’s tools can be used on any type of cylindrical lock, including rim locks, police locks, dead-bolts, or key-in-the-knob locks. A door that has had its lock cylinder removed can be outfitted with a new one afterward with only minor cosmetic damage, making officer’s tools a less destructive alternative to other forcible entry devices like fireman’s axes and battering rams.

1. Bernd Meyring:

   Where digital content is geoblocked this can often be a result of national intellectual property rights. Assessing whether this is a genuine concern or a pretext to separate the internal market is a delicate exercise in each of these cases, given all the limitations of existing tools, legislation would be a far more appropriate tool to deal with the issue than trying to use an imperfect tool box.

2. David Frum:

   They're not horrified by the violence anymore, they're increasingly accepting it.

3. Larry Millete:

   All my children are taught and practice safety to include gun safety at an early age. It’s a sport and hobby we all enjoy, not all gun owners are evil villains. A firearm is a tool. You have to practice using that tool to become proficient incase you ever need it (sic) utilize it. Firearms are not bad as they are often portrayed to be.

4. Nancy Pelosi:

   The White House has made fools of their allies in the House of Representatives in the way they've handled this, they cook up some intelligence. They bring the chairman of the committee -- a very distinguished position which he has tarnished -- they use him as a tool to tell him what they have cooked up, now you go tell the President what we have cooked up and try to represent to the American people that this is legitimate intelligence.
