  1. As long as they’re headed towards your end of the state and not mine!
  2. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/01/08/she-bragged-man-dating-app-about-poaching-deer-he-was-game-warden/ The link text pretty much says it all, but damn. She bragged about poaching to her dating app match and he turned out to be an OK game warden. That’s bloody hilarious.
  3. What do you think the odds are he tries to tie this in as a trade off for his priority, the wall. He is after all, King of The Deal. I wonder how the faithful on either side would handle that trade off.
  4. I’ve seen you mention the deceased pointing his gun at the cop more than once. I don’t remember that being part of Delke’s story at the beginning and the video doesn’t show that happening. Can you direct me to where you got that bit of information? That has always been my hurdle with this case. If the deceased did point his gun at Delke, then it’s absolutely a good shoot, but if he didn’t, that’s where it becomes questionable to me and why I think it should go to trial. If I am misreading your posts, please correct me. As far as that trial goes, if the history of these types of trials is any indicator, he will get acquitted and the union will get him his job back. There are roughly 1000 officer involved shootings per year** and between 2005 and 2017 80 officers were indicted for on the job homicides but only about 35% of those were convicted. It is exceedingly difficult to convict an officer for an on the job shooting. **https://scholarworks.bgsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?referer=https://amp-cnn-com.cdn.ampproject.org/&httpsredir=1&article=1077&context=crim_just_pub *I also feel it is incumbent upon me at this time to make my usual reminder that contrary to propagandist efforts from inside the LE industry, policing in this country isn’t an especially dangerous job. It doesn’t even make the top 10 for on the job fatalities. Truck drivers like myself are more than twice as likely to die on the job as a police officer and we aren’t even top 5. Your trash guy has a statistically more dangerous job than a cop.*
  5. Eh, it could, but I can’t imagine it being reversed by the senate. I also can’t imagine him staying past the next election either.
  6. Here’s the map from the MDWFP site for this season.
  7. This article from earlier in the year describes the pressure that was being put on former Governor Scott to remove Israel and mentions the statute that covers the power of the Governor to do so and prior removals he has made. https://www.tampabay.com/florida-politics/buzz/2018/02/26/uncharted-territory-could-rick-scott-suspend-the-broward-sheriff/ Here is the statute in question. http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0100-0199/0112/Sections/0112.51.html So the governor can suspend him, at which point the Senate would have to review that removal and either make that removal permanent or reinstate him.
  8. Gotta agree with @Magiccarpetrides here. Skip the cetme, and anything else from Century. It’s worth the extra money to know you’ll have a working rifle.
  9. But there’s no substitute for meatspace.
  10. Let’s just say that they will require making sure your headlights are properly aimed very important. That reminds me folks, ensuring your headlights are properly aimed and adjusted is a regular maintanence item. If you find yourself getting flashed with brights a lot while you don’t have yours on, maybe it’s because you’ve got one cockeyed bulb blinding the hell out of everyone. At least once a year, take the time to ensure that your headlights haven’t come out adjustment. Just another friendly PSA from your local truck driver.
  11. I’m all about the LED bulbs. The newer kits are usually pretty easy to convert as well.
  12. I love me some FAL goodness.
  13. I’m not kidding or making fun. I’m 100% serious. The rumors I’ve heard are that the Glock 44 is going to be a .22. They are rumors and could be totally wrong, but it’s just what I’ve heard.
  14. When I was leaving San Diego to move back to TN in early 06 or was like 70 or 80 degrees in Memphis while San Diego county had snow. It happens like that sometimes.
  15. While not an annual occurrence, it’s not weirdly abnormal either.
  16. Rumor is that it’s a .22.
  17. It really is nice leatherwork, but it does leave me scratching my head about a few things. That’s for sure.
