A couple of millimeters from death.

I just called him (616) 956-7600 "So what, I have an opinion!" By the way, he owns the company, be sure to leave a Google review.

I give Fox a bit of a pass as they are the ONLY voice on the other side of the aisle in the main stream press. Also, like them or not, they have been calling out Biden's decline for years! Of course they have been doing that while overlooking and defending Trump's narcissism, but still the only voice on the other side and as it turns out, they were right about Biden all along.

As some of us on this forum have been saying for years, it goes FAR beyond his inner circle. As noted a few posts above, the main stream media has been protecting him (and withholding detrimental information), for years. I don't like Trump, but there are some who hate him so much, they will sacrifice their ethics, their duties and even break the law to stop him from getting back into office. The press is already trying to rehab Biden and it is disgusting. Last night after the press conference I switched around to see the outbreif on several networks, when I got to CNN the commentators and "experts" literally said it was a masterful performance. They didn't call out a single lie he told, they just propped him up as the best thing since sliced bread. The old guard democrats are smart though, I can only imagine the civil war taking place behind closed doors.

And that was his "Big Boy" news conference.

The corruption of the main stream media is slowly unwinding. Chuck Todd is under extreme pressure for remaining silent for TWO years after a senior cabinet member told him that they don't think Biden can continue as president. As a quick reminder Chuck Todd is the Chief Political Analyst for NBC news and he sat on this story to protect Biden. As if that wasn't enough...Jerome Powell the Fed Chairman just dropped this gem in testimony to the House Financial Services Committee. With inflation raging he has not had a meeting with Biden in TWO YEARS!!! WTF?

The Veterans Administration just told Congress and SCOTUS to go F themselves...Kevin Friel the Deputy Director, Pension and Fiduciary Service at U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs testified before Congress that they would NOT obey a law (The Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act), passed by Congress.

Ever been in a gunfight? When adrenaline starts flowing one of the first things to go is fine motor skill, one of the reasons I prefer a double stack magazine.

The left continues a steady attack on the Constitution and your most basic rights.

Well, we taught you how to fly (poorly), I guess it is only fair...

@huggy - Just close the popup and you can read it without a subscription.

As I have been saying for years, the mainstream media continues to violate the most basic journalistic standards and ethics. If you think CNN's Donna Brazile giving Hillary the debate questions in advance was a one off, think again. The Biden campaign drafted questions for the president’s interviews on a pair of Black radio shows Now that they have been caught the station fired the reporter but it is the tip of the iceberg. These clowns are complicit in hiding just had bad that demented meatbag really has become.

As Peter Zeihan has been predicting, China is HURTING! The real estate bubble has burst and their economy is paying the price, 80 to 90 MILLION Empty apartments. China's largest developer, "The Evergrande Group" has been ordered to liquidate it's assets. 66% of the average Chinese retirement/wealth is in real estate...big trouble ahead.

Seriously? Cities overreach all the time and pass "laws" that are in conflict (and thus illegal), with the Constitution and that is the point. Another example is what has happened with Panhandling all around the country, cities and municipalities have tried to outlaw it but SCOTUS CLEARLY ruled that it is protected under the 1st amendment as free speech our a charitable appeal for help. These cities are learning as a wave of lawsuits is forcing them to change the "law." I am certainly not a Constitutional scholar but having sworn an oath I have actually read the document and as part of my education, read a lot of the framing documents like the Federalist Papers which provide the foundation and rationale for the bill of rights. Warrant-less search and seizures have been addressed many times and like other amendments there are exceptions like exigent circumstances, that was not the case here. The NYPD has a bad record when it comes to the bill of rights, they are in the middle of a 1st amendment lawsuit that is going to cost them (actually the tax payers), dearly. Sadly, it is part of their DNA. Notice how many times the tell the guy to shut the F@ck up...sorry, however distasteful you find it, there is still a 1st amendment.

Did someone steal your lunch money...again? So let me get this straight, if I don't respond using your template I have questionable morals? You need some serious mental help.

Lets be completely honest, the blame for the sad display we saw last night lays squarely at the feet of the Biden family, his aides and the DNC for two reasons. First and foremost, F@ck Jill Biden and the aides around Joe. It has been blatantly obvious for some time that Biden has cognitive issues. Falling up stairs, bikes, stages is one thing but the steady decline to a shuffling mumbling stooge has been on full display for sometime. His family and aides are so desperate to retain power they purposely ignored the obvious and sent him out to glitch on a national stage. To think Biden isolated for 10 days to practice for that 90 minutes is staggering. If they had been honest they would have started the process of exiting him stage right two years ago. Second, the DNC hates Trump so much they weaponized the justice system in an attempt to block him from running. It COMPLETELY backfired and in many ways helped him. By keeping him locked up in courts and gag orders they minimized his crazy, hardened his base and gave him a press conference everyday after court where he could further play to his base. The polls prove it, every time they indicted and prosecuted him, his numbers went up. When he ran in 2016 he was appealing as an outsider, in 2024 he is appealing because his is a martyr to everyone who feels cheated and believes the government is out to get them. Had they left it alone, he might have derailed himself, what an utter disaster.

I am actually surprised it has not been a bigger problem in our community. 20 straight years of combat deployments for LDHD units takes a toll. Killing people is not a pick up game and watching your work on ever increasing resolution cameras makes it personal. I did 9 deployments through the years, was fortunate to have breaks along the way for school/staff....other were in a grind for year son end...90 on 90 off, 60 on 60 off...for MANY years. Same issue for the UAS folks who in many regards have it worse. Folks flying airplanes typically have the transit time home from a deployment to start the decompression process. UAS dudes can sit at the kitchen table eating breakfast with their kids, go to work, suddenly they get the call to kill a dude they have been watching for a month. They turn the dude into hamburger and spend the next four hours watching the body to see who comes to collect him...often with his family watching and grieving. They leave the GSU, drive home and are eating dinner 20 minutes later when their kid asks "how was your day Mom/Dad?

The RUMINT local is he strangled the child.

No dog in the fight (I was hired at DAL when I retired then got a much better offer from industry), but the thread has been interesting through the years. As a person who does a LOT of business travel I can tell you it is more busy right now than I have ever seen it. I flew from PCola to IAD last week and there were 11 flights leaving between 0610 and 0810 at an airport with 10 gates. Security (including Pre-check), out the door. I am assuming the Boeing issues have cut back the number of flights, but it looks like non-stop craziness to me,

@M2 68 days and counting brother! Wanna go to the game?

What do you do shortly after taking command of the 19th SOS... Also, how sad that the Sheriff's Office in the county next to "Hurlburt" for 71 years, and where a large number of county residents reside, does not know how to spell the name of the base.

Lunatic Democrat trying to ban guns.
