Printing is an internet myth.

I thought we were talking about Mississippi and Alabama.

From the article. “Under the majority’s rule, the defendant wins by default whenever the government fails to prove that a statute unambiguously criminalizes the defendant’s conduct,” Higginson wrote. yessir. That’s the way it should work.

There are or were several hydrogen powered vehicles on the market a few years back. I’ve still yet to see a hydrogen fueling station. I assume they were popular in the heavily populated places like LA but the rest of the country wasn’t ready. And the fear mongering about hydrogen will have most consumers terrified.

For now. But federal mandates along with company declarations will have the lots looking quite different by the end of the decade.

Magnifier to pair with Aimpoint PRO
Capbyrd replied to MisterDanP's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
I’ve never been a fan of magnifiers but primary arms ran theirs on sale for 40 bucks before Christmas. I’m giving it a go behind a compm2. I need to order a mount though because the one I have is a little tall. Unfortunately the PA flip to side is out of stock right now. -
It’s kind of a catch 22. No one will invest in the infrastructure until the demand is met. And lot of people don’t want to buy until the infrastructure exists. This is part of the reason that the government is pushing the mandates that they are. Is it right? Nah. But the electric future is coming. I’m a hot rodder at heart but I’ve considered an EV. One major hurdle for me, and possibly a lot of other people is that my house is not setup for it. In order to add a charger, I’d have to swap my aged fuse panel for a modern breaker box. Ive gotten some quotes for that and that’s gonna add an additional 3 grand at least to the price of my car. I’m not ready or willing to do so.

I’ve got a shopping list. I love that they just called it a Toyota jeep.

Without all the maintenance, all adjustable gas blocks become fixed gas blocks. im a fan of SLR in general. But even their adjustable will carbon up and become fixed.

I’ve worked in broadcasting. It’s really gonna be up to management. Younger management will recognize that it is great publicity. Older management is gonna be uptight and at least reprimand.

Why isn’t it?

1985 Honda CRX - means nothing to almost everyone but it was my first car. 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis. My mom’s car that i totaled. Someone ran a light in front of me. Again, nothing special but I love the panther platform and they don’t make cars like that anymore. 2010 Mercury Grand Marquis. My grandfathers car. I inherited it and traded it for an escape to give to my mom so she could get in and out easier. Again, I love the panther platform. 1994 Ford F150. My dad’s truck. 1974 Ford Bronco. Previous owner did a garbage repair on the rockers and I wasn’t in a position to deal with the rust so I sold it. 2002 Ford Mustang GT. My race car. I miss racing. 2012 Ford F150. Sold it because I wanted to pay some bills. Then truck prices skyrocketed and I’m priced out of a decent truck. I miss my truck.

Okay. But the fact that it’s about a father trying to reunite with his family and deliver a Christmas present does make it a Christmas movie. The entirety of the events that take place at Nakatomi plaza are just the trials along the journey. The real story is that a broken down old cop got to be with his family for a holiday.

He’s a celebrity politician, he can absolutely be that stupid. Not saying he is, just could be.

But this one is!!!

I never once said that the system was infallible. I only pointed out how it’s currently being used. I don’t know the system and haven’t seen the programs it runs or anything. I only know how those calls are going out and if an officer wanted to use it maliciously, it would be difficult to fake one. They would have to file a report, send it to dispatch who is then going to verify the report with internal and external sources before they send officers on the call. NCIC stuff is heavily regulated and I know the person that runs it takes her job very seriously. again, none of that prevents misuse. And I’m not a camera supporter. I’m pretty against the nanny state. I’m only commenting on how something is currently used and the only opinion I’ve offered until this point was about one individual’s character.

I don’t know about every jurisdiction but in Memphis this isn’t really possible without losing the job and charges. A plate has to be in the NCIC system for the plate reader to flag it. The only way to get it into NCIC is to have some type of report against it, usually stolen.
-
Those aren’t the LPR cameras. The LPR cameras are called Flock and they are dome shaped. The speed cameras and red light cameras are a completely separate system.
-
In Memphis they just send an alert that a stolen tag passed the area. They don’t do anything more than that. Not saying they won’t eventually, but right now, it’s all it does. An officer still needs to be in the area to have a hope of catching anybody.

Handled one in a shop a couple days ago. The trigger is probably the best m&p trigger I’ve ever touched. It’s really not bad. the texture is a little rough for a carry piece so expect your clothes to get torn up. And on the grips, I didn’t get to swap panels out but the plastic inserts seem to bulge and make the grip larger than it needed to be for my hand. There may be a panel in the box that fits me better but I dunno.
-
OLights tend to explode too and those seem to be quite popular.
-
Also, no one has ever offered me free drugs. I really thought there would be a gauntlet of drug dealers waving bags of their wares at me in my daily life.
-
I handled one today and the trigger on it was less than impressive. That’s my only observation.
