  1. It's good to have goals. Hey, I know, maybe we could have bumper stickers : "My Dad is an Honor Republican". Those would be nice.
  2. AS I've previously posted it's about design. I designed mine differently from what you have likely used. And as a part of the design I built doors and then kicked them out to know. But that's how I roll.
  3. Don't know. Maybe the door would still work fine. I once flipped, rolled, and skidded on it's roof a '53 Chevy down a mountain road. It was well crushed, for sure. When it came to a halt I kicked out a window before thinking to try the door which opened easily. But I don't count on that luck with jump doors. I think they should kick out regardless of condition. Obviously, there's no guarantee.
  4. I don't know who I'm defending my home against. If I did I suppose I'd just go shoot them now and get rid of that gun, too. I could destroy my old hunting guns but none are the type I have great concerns over. So instead I'm giving them away to responsible hunters.
  5. Yep, but all roll up Lexan doors need to be designed and built properly. I've spoke to this here before so will avoid the details but more than an ease of operation thing it's a safety thing. Most Lexan jump doors in use in Skydiving cannot be kicked out in an emergency. That's an industry wide problem.
  6. Years ago I took pride in my hunting prowess.That ended one afternoon when my dog picked up a limit of wounded ducks on our way to the blind. Actually, there was a worse thing. No matter, except for home defense and gophers I am getting shed of all of my guns just to be less a part of our national silliness.
  7. In all fairness you can't get good people to flip burgers these day's, no wonder our finest have problems. "An Indiana police officer this week visited the South Vermillion High School to teach children about how to be good law enforcement officials -- but he wound up accidentally shooting one of his prospective pupils."
  8. Yes, that’s it exactly. Committed futility just like the folks in the rubber rooms.
  9. Possibly, but the measuring is the tricky bit. I do think that being direct, affirmative and positional has a better chance of swaying opinion than being non confrontational.
  10. Probably not. A requirement of receiving HIMAR's was that they would not be used against Russian territory. The Ukrainians have that ability now but are conforming to the agreement. I see that given their fidelity that we might now give them our ATACMS systems enabling them to hit deep into the Crimea. I hope so, anyway.
  11. From the photo's I'm seeing there are a lot of women fighting at the front in Ukraine. I expect new paradigms are being formed that will cause change in armed forces around the world. Good.
  12. It could be or it could not be. Or it could be that there just isn't the level of integrity that's required to say "fuckit my political leanings are less important than playing on a team largely comprised of insurrectionist assholes, morons, and self centered narcissistic dingleberries so I'm out." But you just go on giving out hugs, I offer a different service.
  13. You’re right that the party won’t condemn him. Worse is that republicans who identify as intellectuals won’t, for the good of the nation if not intellectual honesty, openly disassociate with the Republican party. Yes, I’m looking at some posters here.
  14. Thank God his book is now out and we can learn the truth of his daughters heroism, (or did she cause the insurrection?), on January 6. What a weasel. We did learn one very useful bit of information: when his right foot is tapping he's lying.
  15. Sexist, I think was the result of the second trial of the twice convicted racist.
  16. Of course politicians love twitter and business people in highly regulated businesses love deregulating politicians.
  17. Holy crap Brother, you're a real legend. Good on you and good luck.
  18. Of course, that's the scam in a nutshell. It's a farce seconded only by the absurd explanation made in defense.
  19. So you're a skydiver, airport owner, and a motherfucker? And here I thought it was just me.
  20. Because I do not have the documents in front of me. We have no clue if the new airport owners are fancy dressers and nifty dancers or, as claimed, motherfuckers. Could be that they are cookie delivering, puppy loving, and just wonderful folks who bought an airport that had no legal lessee. You also have no clue so why are you up in arms?
  21. Y'all, no, all ya'all need to go back to page one of this thread to see whose up to geopolitical predictions and whose got short bus issues.
