Holy shit, B@iff_T! How about manscaping that profile block a bit! 🤣🤣🤣

I'm looking to pick up a Walther P1 (updated P38) but the one hesitation I have is it's comparison to the Beretta M9 which I also don't like, and it takes a lot for me to not like a firearm!!

As this is a government-themed thread...

Therein lies your problem. You need to move somewhere that has a HEB!

That's the $10,000 question, who has a right to defend their borders, the US Federal Government or each state? I know Texas' answer!

Well, given this response from the Mexican president, that may be the only real option albeit one the US public won't have the stomach for... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/mexican-president-to-fight-new-texas-migrant-law/ar-AA1lRt9D

Having recently been down to the border in an official capacity, I can attest it is a dumpster fire of near biblical proportions! Honestly, despite the large amount of effort and money Texas ($4.5B spent since 2021, and looking to fund an additional $4.6B over the next two years) and the Fed ($19.9B for 2024) is pouring into the situation, I don't believe it is fixable. The border between Texas and Mexico has historically been porous, almost irrelevant in many places. 188 years ago, it didn't event exist; and to many today, it still doesn't. Does the US have a right to protect its sovereignty? Absolutely! Can we effectively do so along the 1,254 miles from the Gulf of México to El Paso in Texas alone? Doubtful. Should we try? Most definitely. But having been "boots on the ground," and visiting numerous locations where I could have easily walked across the Rio Grande into Mexico and barely getting my feet wet int he process (I didn't, being armed it wouldn't have been the best idea!); the reality is until something drastic changes in Mexico, it is a winless battle. However, on a whim I did re-enact a famous move by Patton at Oppenheim, south of Frankfurt in 1945 when I realized I am the same age he was when he took a “time out for a short halt to take a piss in the Rhine.” 🫡🫡🫡

Enough of the chitchat bullshit, this is what this thread is intended for...

Many schools lost a lot of players to the portal this year. Conversely, many schools picked up a lot of players via the portal this year! It remains to be seen how Napier adjusts with these new players!

Odd, as it's uploaded to this website and not a link to another one...

HeyEng! Look up two posts! 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, can't touch this nail biter! 🤣🤣🤣 The Hurricanes will travel to New York to Yankee Stadium to play Rutgers (6-6, 3-6 Big Ten) in the Bad Boy Mowers Pinstripe Bowl

Yeah, the Seminoles are "boycotting" the Orange Bowl because they know Georgia will prove why they don't deserve to be in the national championship playoffs.

I've seen his videos before and honestly, the screaming puts me off to a point where it doesn't mater what he says...

Unfortunately, there is no shortage of screaming douchebags in the US Army! 🤪🤪🤪

That's Jacksonville, where I grew up. Standard Florida Man!
