Tread carefully.. see my above comment...

Not to sound jaded, but this account joined an hour ago and is offering $500 in bullets free....... @GlockSpock

Back then if you were too stupid to fight your way out of a wet paper bag you died early.... not now. Plus there was a much larger family level firearms training. Your Dad, or Mom, taught you to shoot because it meant one more person to hunt for the meat that they needed to survive. Now, that is not to say those people were trained like a soldier, but they knew which end of the gun went boom and to not point it at things they did not want to kill.

I am confused... Are the guys in that video pulling them from the car not wearing Police labeled gear? I know this is just an example, but is it not the reverse of the situation? Though some context as to why this particular car was swarmed, windows smashed, and tires slashed would need to be in place to know what went on.

No one protesting that got a video that justifies his actions is going to come forward. If he is lucky a concerned citizen bystander might have got something on film. Otherwise this WILL be a VERY uphill battle for him. In addition to his employer dropping him, I foresee his car insurance doing it also. Every business he works with is going to make him a pariah. On the other side, when civil cases come forth, I am betting a well versed big time lawyer is supplied to the protester by unknown sources. In addition, we can look for much larger protests in this area to show opposition to him. Plus with the last few years, most police officers will be shy to stop the protesters for fear of being dismissed and seeing lawsuits themselves. They need a paycheck for their families too.

I get to retire 5 years after I am dead...... Seeing the costs my Dad paid to keep my Mom on insurance after he retired, I know there is no way. I think it was in excess of $900 a month. He still ran basically a full time job doing landscaping just to cover that. With my bounced around 'career' I have only been able to build so much of a 401k. Hopefully we will not still have a mortgage and the kids will be on their own, but there is no guarantee in any of that. All it takes is one bad medical issue and all your savings is gone. I like eating, so makes me nervous.

So if a few boxes fell of the truck.. wink wink. LMAO

It is capitalism, so it is what it is. The thing that will burn people up is to find that a lot of these "pros" that I know a bit about in my area are pulling a disability check but are fit enough to run around flipping ammo and guns. It burns me that on some of those guys, I am paying for them to sit there and get ammo to flip. By the way, I have also heard several accounts that are much more chaotic than David's. People running through the clothing section trying to shortcut to the ammo aisle. Not quite Black Friday at Wal-Mart bad, but close.

From the WBIR article. "The property, part of an incentive to open in Blount County, will return to the Blount Partnership" So basically, the deal was never even really done or else he would own it. I am guessing he got some up front cash and has burned through all that. Makes me wonder if they published that on 9/11 to lower itsimpact. Also which politician benefited from the original announcement of job creation.

Cute kids. Congrats, Makes me tired just remembering having a newborn in the house. lol

I do think the 30-30/20ga covers the widest range of things in this area. Only better I could wish for is they made a few with 12ga barrels. They also made a .308/12ga option toward the end of making the Model 24, but finding one of those is not likely at a price I would want to pay. I have others in different calibers, but they are not quite as versatile, but it is still a fun time shooting them.

I can say it does good sitting on top of a 20ga barrel on my Savage 24. (Not mine, but looks just like it aside from my scope)

We had a deck planned this fall...oh well...

That looks like it belongs to a Mexican Cartel boss for some reason. lol

David has not been looking at the right guns...

So how many of my morals do I have to compromise to get one of those....Glocks....... I am flexible....

If you haven't seen the needs to be prepared before, you may have changed your mind this year. Take a look at suggestions for preparing for disasters. I detail info on my site: http://leveledsurvival.com/2020/09/01/september-is-national-preparedness-month-and-it-means-more-than-ever-in-2020/ Planning by the Levels Emergency Kits FEMA also has info on Ready.gov: https://www.ready.gov/september#:~:text=National%20Preparedness%20Month%20(NPM)%20is,%22Disasters%20Don't%20Wait.

I am guessing with a ton if powder on site that I would question the safety of a lot of the items that "survived". Even brass might have gotten to hot and have unseen flaws now. Not really sure how widespread it was and what areas also got drenched by the fire hoses.

I remember getting scolded by my mom as a kid after a day of sliding down a red clay bank. My underwear were orange on the back side. No way to get that stuff out.

I have my .22s Rhom 10 for that reason. lol

I could have bought one of those a while back. lol

Shows you how much I DON'T know about British TV.. lol I will just keep discussing swallows over here in my corner.

I love Monty Python. Never got into much else. The wife loves Downton Abbey and the daughter is a huge Office fan by conduit of the American series. Still got 2 pairs of Docs I picked up in London the only time I got to go. I used to be sort of a fanatic about them. What I get for working in a boot store. One is pretty much one of a kind before they became cookie cutter. Kinda looks like a union Jack and rebel flag mixed. Really loved my time there. I spent most of it in Derbyshire doing volunteer work. Ah, college days...so much more free time...

Nice! I am trying to get my regular workbench together. My plan is to drill holes and have a a board mounted with a press when I start reloading that I can quickly bolt to the top and then remove again.

I would hope not his maiden voyage at 1/2 a mile high. Long way to fall.
