New Mexico's turn to go full retard. Just one of the gems in SB17 seeks to ban ALL gas operated semi-automatic guns.

Trump's Foreign Policy is a big departure from President's past. He removed the criminal leading Venezuela, Iran is about to fall and, not getting much press is the full court press on Cuba. Not a fully named embargo but little oil is getting in and they likely have less than 30 days reserve on island. Interesting that Maduro's protection element was all Cuban and it is coming to light that there was a lot of fentanyl coming in through via and enabled by Cuba. Numerous Russian military transports have landed in Cuba the last three weeks...intel indicated Air Defense, attack drones and ECM assets. Would be interesting if he took, Iran, Venezuela and Cuba all off the table as threats in a single term.

It is hearing safe! Interesting video below - cliff notes he says 5.7MM has the following advantages - More rounds same space (some gun mags up to 24 rounds), less recoil, better penetration (including level 2 body armor which 9MM can't penetrate), longer range, better reliability issues because it doesn't use a feed ramp like most 9MM's. I won't be replacing all my 9MMs anytime soon but I am impressed. The biggest advantage I've seen is how light, small and quiet it is which makes it useful for home defense.

The situation gets more interesting by the day. Fat Amy in action - Iranian Drone Downed: U.S. forces shot down an Iranian Shahed surveillance drone on February 3 as it approached the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group, currently deployed approximately 500 miles off the Iranian coast. According to a statement from U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) spokesman. Also, Iran tried to board and Seize the Stena Imperative, a U.S. flagged tanker. This particular tanker is part of the U.S. Maritime Administration's Tanker Security Program (TSP). As a strategic asset, it provides military fuel transport The vessel is part of a fleet of 10 U.S.-flagged tankers designated to support Department of Defense (DoD) fuel requirements during contingencies, emergencies, or war. The GW left Norfolk today enroute to the Middle East.

FSU is circling the drain...and it doesn't look like they can afford to buy out Mike. Report: Florida State reports $437 million in athletics-related debt in 2025 Florida State University (FSU) reported $617 Million in total institutional debt for FY25, with a significant $437 million, or 71%, attributed to athletics, making it one of the most leveraged athletic departments in college sports. This surge, a 2,465% increase from 2020, is driven by massive, debt-financed stadium renovations and a new football facility.

No issues finding ammo....still a bit pricey. I have a lot of .223 and a LOT of 9MM and usually still to that but the feel of this gun was too good to pass up. Great truck gun.

Electronic Form 4 with a TS/SCI took 17 days...Guy with no clearance submitted same day, same shop, 9 days. Anyway, my new Spartac 5.7X28. Integrated suppressor, WICKED light even with a 32 round mag. Optics and foregrip on order.

You used to serve as a good counterpoint to the obviously conservative tone on this forum, but you’ve drifted into an ideologue spewing outright falsehoods...you can't admit a single fault with the actions on the left. Most people on here have been clear they disagree with plenty of what Trump says. That’s not in dispute. What is disconnected from reality is your insinuation that the “party of Trump” is poised to destroy or kill anyone who isn’t in lockstep with some imagined orthodoxy. Let’s talk about actual violence, not vibes. Which side burned entire city blocks, torched police stations, and caused billions in damage during the 2020 riots—riots that left dozens dead? Which side created “autonomous zones” enforced by armed mobs where people were shot and killed? Which side spent years firebombing courthouses and attacking federal buildings in places like Portland? Which side shot up a congressional baseball practice after being radicalized by partisan rhetoric? Which side regularly labels ICE agents “Nazis,” a term historically used to justify violence against them? Which side cheers assaults on political opponents as “punching Nazis” when the definition of “Nazi” seems to be “anyone who disagrees”? Which side shot Trump in the ear, nearly missing his brain stem? Then tried again on a golf course? Political violence is wrong—full stop. But pretending it’s some uniquely right-wing phenomenon while ignoring years of documented left-wing rioting, assaults, and intimidation isn’t principled. It’s willful blindness. If you want to criticize Trump or Republicans, fine. Plenty do, including people here. But rewriting recent history to paint one side as uniquely violent while memory-holing the other is exactly the kind of bad-faith argument you used to push back against. You can do better than that.

Fing unreal

I have not seen the video of him being shot (dealing with some family health issues), but this popped up on my phone while waiting in the hospital. Not saying the guy deserved to die but he is not the innocent angel the left is making him out to be. A week after spitting on an officer, damaging a vehicle and having a violent interaction with an ICE officers he decides to attend another protest with a gun and extra mags. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xu6vogwcLt8

So glad I left Va.

Iran now flying DCA caps...Raptor likely chomping at their bits...

In short - judges must now use the test of "totality of the situation" rather than what happened in a split second decision.

Grasp at straws much? So addicted to your ideology you can't admit your prophet screwed up. New 9-0 SCOTUS ruling will impact many cases including what is currently happening in MN.

A LOT more assets have moved into place.
