I put this together for myself for conversations like this. https://dbcooperhijack.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Various-Witness-Descriptions-2.pdf

Rumble is far right click-bait propaganda. There are plenty of legitimate criticisms that one can direct towards Biden, to be sure…but nobody who’s not already sharing the bowl from whence you get your Kool-Aid gives a fuck about rumble-dot-com.

The marker looks like something purchased ahead of time, and would not be from the military. However, I can tell you it took almost 9 months to get the required documents for my mother's marker. She didn't keep any of her documents and it took several interventions from some friends still in the military to finally get her discharge papers.

Yeah, but Beyonce REALLY SHOULD HAVE won.

You are lying, constantly.

This is the part that matters: From the story you linked. Despite this contradiction over who opened the door, the basic facts of the attack are not disputed in the documents: 42-year-old David DePape is accused of breaking into the Pelosi home and attacking 82-year-old Paul Pelosi with a hammer. DePape is being held in San Francisco County jail on attempted murder and multiple other felony charges. According to court documents, DePape was looking for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Paul's wife, and threatened to break her kneecaps.

Titanium-Antimony and salt was used as a flameproofing for textiles starting in the 50's... That is why I sent a 1964 era Penny's tie to Tom for testing.. some of the particle may be inherent to the production/dying/flame proofing of Dacron Polyester.

Apparently Russian.. but we can't trust any info about Reca, the narrative is a fraud..

He spoke all those languages? Any proof? Any recordings? I come from a family of linguists. I’ve studied some languages but not to the extent real linguists have. So many people claim proficiency in a language, even today. Just look at LinkedIn. The same people claim to be CEOs of companies, but these companies have three people. It’s very easy to fake these things, especially when they have friends telling them how good they are. Do Reca’s military files show language proficiency? These files should. Any other examples of him using those languages? Maybe his parents spoke some, but that does not make him proficient. His whole story is too good to be true. I read this book many years ago and was very surprised to see how many famous people had faked their backgrounds. It seemed that most of them had military service, but they embellished things and added to their story. I’m not sure who is worse, Reca for lying, or the Reca group for believing him. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stolen_Valor

"Can't we all get along?" I think Fly's point that it's hard to tell complexion from old photos or movies is valid. Though that passport picture would also seem to be darker complected, so it may be moot. The part I'm hung up on is: While I am very familiar with the descriptions that lead to the "olive"/"Latin"/"Native" description, if I saw the person in the Cooper sketches, I would not think "Latin" or "Native American." If his skin tone were notably darker than what feels in the realm for European-American, I might guess one of those things were in the mix. But it wouldn't be the first thing I'd say based on features. So it seems completely in the realm to propose someone whose looks match the sketch and whose skin-tone could be described as "olive," etc. Yes? A credible suspect would be "A darker complected 'caucasian' whose features match the drawings," correct? Otherwise, if we're dismissing the sketch as a match for features, we might as well be discussing Petersen, a nice-looking old man whose name is now permanently attached to a terrorist act he did not come within 3,000 miles of committing thanks to the crackerjack investigation of someone who coincidentally needed to sell tickets to a conference he personally profits from.

Too bad they don’t have any plans to do anything that might actually benefit the majority of people who voted for them.

Maybe if you read the donglegate link he provided you'd understand it wasn't parsing. But, yeah easier to just make snarky comments.

Come on Rob, you have to ease up on your 20 year rule as the years go by! :-) Yeah at one time a 20 year old reserve was some crappy lightweight maybe acid damaged round. Or some easy to stall tiny overloaded Raven with no spanwise reinforcement. But now a 20 year old reserve can be a great PD reserve that will take high weights and speeds. Similarly, a 20 year old rig isn't one with velcro all over, and relatively sketchy bridle and pin protection. A 20 year old rig is most likeley fully free fly friendly. You might not get a MARD on most 2002 rigs, or magnetic riser covers, but other than fancier looking hardware and backpads, the rest of the design isn't going to be much different. Now you may be right that say a 2002 Vector III & PD reserve (with say 20-25 boxes ticked off) & Sabre 2 isn't going to command a nearly-new price ... but it isn't exactly crap gear worth nearly nothing. If you were only talking about 20 year old pilot rigs .... Well yeah their value is going down a fair bit. But they don't seem uncommon up here in Canada. I think they migrate up here as US FAA riggers get more antsy about packing them, being more worried about 20 year "service life" stuff in manuals. But if they haven't been heavily used and sitting in the sun a lot, they can be in decent shape.

Maybe somebody will find this video useful. Atair Winx and lots of openings one by one. Check by yourself and think :) Configuration: Squirrel FREAK4, Aerodyne ICON Long with dynamic corners and semi-stowless D-bag, 30" SkySNATCH, Atair Winx 150sqf loaded at 1.65 by https://wspoint.pl/

and I thought Slim needed help.
