Jump the main for a few to get re-oriented. Get an AAD. Reserve will be fine as long as the rigger doesn't ground it (for age or other reasons). My ground training after a nine year hiatus wearing the rig was, "What's that handle do? What's that handle do? What's that handle do? There's a plane with a slot on it, take it to 5k and do a HnP. Don't die." I heard. Have fun. Be safe.

Left. You are left all of the time as well. :)

GUYS FOUR MILES NORTH: There's a crazy ol white man down there. Don't go four miles south.

It's really just a demographic population density rebuttal. Everything is more concentrated in cities, more cars, more accidents, more everything.

You're a fucking loon.

You sound like someone with whom to converse, break bread and have a beer. All of my postings haven't been about gun control bills, but about gun responsibility. This way is not working. As a nation we can and should do better. I wish you well.

The data is extracted from the CDC. I am an (R), but tend to do more than listen to or quote main stream media or use x.com as a scholastic source.

Advocating for training, but you don't want legislation. How's the advocating working so for? Training to drive before getting a driver's license is legislated. Dead children. Firearms are the leading cause of death for children and teens in the US.

Door in the face technique. Common persuasion/sales strategy. i.e., car lots.

Anecdotal, not statistical. This makes no sense to me.

Seven pages in the last 72 hours. https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/last-72-hours EDIT: But, you know - why do anything different.

The Gun Violence Archive, which began collecting data on gun violence in the U.S. in 2013 recorded more than 4,400 mass shootings in the last decade. Of those, “the number of known suspects in mass shootings which are trans is under 10 for the last decade,” which translated to “1:880 [or 0.11%] of the 4,400 shootings.” https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/

Responsibility.

Well, they can under the NFA. So, if we agree the NFA is necessary for those weapons, why not an "NFA" for other weapons? That is the battle cry, but was not the original premise. First, it wasn't until recently the 20th century that someone tied the the 2A to the "goverment that turned tyrannical." and told people that Jefferson said it. What Jefferson was speaking about was the Public School Act. " . . . perverted it into tyranny; and it is believed that the most effectual means of preventing this would be, to illuminate, as far as practicable, the minds of the people at large . . ." https://www.monticello.org/research-education/thomas-jefferson-encyclopedia/bill-more-general-diffusion-knowledge/ EDIT: Found it. https://www.cnn.com/2013/01/11/opinion/jefferson-fake-gun-quotation/index.html

Happy Solstice, Nigel.

It was a starting point between eradicating the 2nd and the wild west.

But they don't. I posted this 6 years ago. Appreciate your input.

No doubt.

Exactly. With Freedom comes responsibility.

You're a bit new here and the plug is about to be pulled. I wore the uniform for twenty years. I spent a lot of time in other countries doing just that. From when I came home, I never felt the need to _have_ to wear a gun or even keep one in reach until ten years ago. In fact, ten years ago, one could not have a gun on their person or in their vehicle unless the person was registered. As to concealed carry - all for the training and registering the person. But, not every swinging Richard should have a gun so readily available as to have a rage moment and wipe out a whole block (or school).

Hope you get to spend time with family and friends and best wishes to you.

And what of the real life experiences of high school children? Since Columbine there have been over 640 children killed or injured in school shootings. You're not going to beat me up about real life expereinces, Brother. I have them. And, one experience I have is coming back to the US and not feeling like I had to have a gun on my hip, or fear that children would die, or fear that mine could die every time I got a page from the school. P.S. Hers and her school friends favorite hang out had a shooting the sunday before last. Enough is enough.

This is a hoax. This photo is AI spread on X and reddit to blame Biden. No verified news sources as of 12/23/2024 have given a victim name or statement.
