  1. Sorry, it was probably over your head.
  2. Well, if that's the case, then why was shipping them there a problem?
  3. Exactly. That's the issue. I don't think anyone on either side of the aisle here doesn't think we should take a more methodical approach to the problem. The states, the federal government, both sides of the aisle, should work together and implement a new "Ellis Island" approach rather than the playing of hot potato for years. IMO: We should convert a BRAC base to a port of entry. Ship everyone there for vetting, skills assessment, legal assistance, etc. Compile a list of states and the numbers they can accept, Transfer them to those states with a hand-off to HHS for long-term pathways. But, that's just one man's opinion.
  4. _IF_ you are eligible. Those that are not and remain or come back after being departed are _illegal_.
  5. OAG Texas Comment_ Laredo Environmental Planning.pdf
  6. I was left without comment to my question, so assumptions were made. You've yet to clarify if you had a gun specific conversation with him.
  7. OK. Phil. We'll do it your way. 4.4 Million in the last year where Biden is Pres and Kamala is the "Border Czar."
  8. You mean like when one finds out that "Tony Heller" (your source in the link) is really Steven Goddard? You know, the guy who had to retract his entire article on arctic ice receding back in 2008, Tony Heller? Why would a guy with his supposed credentials lie about who he really is?
  9. Illegal Aliens, are foreign-born people who do not possess a valid visa or other immigration documentation, because they entered the U.S. without inspection, stayed longer than their temporary visa permitted, or otherwise violated the terms under which they were admitted. Asylum Seekers, is a person who has left their country and is seeking protection from persecution and in another country This is about them as an individual). What you guys are talking about is “refugees,” Those who believe the risks to their safety and life were so great that they felt they had no choice but to leave and seek safety outside their country because their own government cannot or will not protect them from those dangers. Refugees have a right to international protection (Think, Ukraine refugees). With that – what Texas and Florida have been asking for – to no avail – is help in channeling the onslaught of people just crossing the borders into those states. And, no help or support from the federal government in 10 years of a Democratic presidency. Do you realize that Ellis Island channeled only 2.75 million migrants between 1900-1914 and another 2.3 million between 1924 (after the Emergency Quota Law in 1921) and 1954 when Ellis was closed. All of that _with_ the federal government’s support. 4.4 Million in one year into Texas (~11,000 arrested for being criminals in their own country). 4.4 Million in one year - Almost the total of a 54 year period that HAD federal support. We’ve talked about this for years. The federal government could take one of the BRAC bases in the south and turn it into an Ellis island. Not only do those refugees have a right to international protection – US citizens have a right to be protected also.
  10. If a conservative does it = bad. If a liberal does it = he did it the right way, It looks like this What's _your_ point other than the art of deflection?
  11. They are in the US illegally. Definition of illegal alien/immigrant : a foreign person who is living in a country without having official permission to live there https://www.dictionary.com/browse/illegal-alien You should know my grandfather was an Illegal Alien (WOP) and was sent back to Sicily and had to come thru Ellis Island the right way a few years later.
  12. The Democrat Mayor of El Paso just sent 55+ buses of illegal immigrants to New York City
  13. Interesting: https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4975 Then we listen to Carl Sagan's Emerging Issues Forum (Start at :41 ) from 1990
  14. Depends. Did you have a specific conversation regarding guns or was it a proximity wine tasting thing?
  15. As mentioned earlier and often; I am now shunned by my tribe in two areas; Guns and Global Warming. But, I continue to try and will keep wearing them out with facts. There's more of my tribe that feel the same way - and it's growing. And to whom have you written or talked in any house about creating legislation. The liberal party is in control and they do nothing. NOTHING. I've given you ANOTHER tool and yet you guys do nothing while children are being killed. Write your legislators and ask them to codify the NFA for all weapons and ammo. Think you can handle that? Hell, you don't even have to leave the comfort of your laptop - all legislators now have an online text block for you to submit - and here's the really cool part, you can ask for a response and they get it to you. Give it a shot. Make your voice heard somewhere other than here. There's a fajita in it for you.
  16. Because then Durbin would have enacted some legislation with your views - https://www.durbin.senate.gov/legislation?congress=115&database=text&MaxDocs=1000&query=guns&Search=Go
  17. So here we are 1.762 posts into a two year old thread. I can't help but wonder how many of the liberals on here have taken the time to pen their representatives as much as they've argued on here. Shouldn't be long before Kallend posts another headline that we all see in the news - cause you know that takes less time than actually writing something and sending it to a representative. The liberal party is so fucked up; they can't see the forest for the trees or solutions to the problem that's right in front of them - WHILE they hold a majority in the house!! And you're going to fuck this up; just like you fucked up Roe v. Wade. By sitting on your asses and doing nothing. You guys are beyond "disorganized." Posted below is a letter I wrote to my Senator a few days after the Natalie Building murders. What have you written to them? While I got crickets, there is a growing number of conservatives that are fed up with the shootings in the US. You know I sent "the proposal" to my tribe and was fucking ostracized. Did any of you send it to your reps? Probably not. In 1994, you signed the Assault Weapon ban; but then when the expiry date was on the horizon, you did nothing. Here's a thought - instead of debating this shit ad nauseum for another five years - while you have the House consider this solution that currently exists . . . Make the sale of ALL weapons and ammunition subject to the NFA: There's your solution and the good news is - it's already a law, Think you guys could pull yourselves away from your lattes and Tesla owners' club wine tasting for a few minutes to voice that opinion to your representatives?

  18. The issue is the helmets, not the Sena. Skydiving helmets haven't changed much. nor have they really been re-designed for wingsuit jumping with comms. Here is my suggestion as both a skydiver and biker (Shoei Helmet with Sena) 1. Try the newer Sena 50 r or s 2. Place the speakers over your ear canal and use band-aids or some other tape to "build up" around the speaker to channel into your ear ANd to prevent wind noise. 3. Seal the helmet from air flow better. 4. Design a chin cup to reduce the air from flowing from under the helmet (Shoei's have that chin cup) Hope this helps
  19. This all started around 1970 with the newly formed libertarian party. Some Phd's got together and began "rewriting history." Since then, there's been about ten new definitions added to political views. Each one of these new "ten" had similar principles with our forefathers and began pointing at them saying, "See, see, our forefathers . . . " Being left of King George doesn't make them liberals. "Classic" or otherwise.
  20. To answer Ken's question, [at that time] they were federalists + libertarian. Your response is more modern republicanism and liberalism.
  21. You are so wrong on this point. Then stop criticizing every fookin thing. I don't even know what you're trying to say. !
