The leftist on this site can’t (won’t) even explain what a woman is.

Concur man. Many years ago I had a Major tell a group of us Lts/Capts to not talk about money in front of the enlisted (especially the younger airmen), for obvious reasons. Additionally, my wife and I fortunately both do pretty well, and I’m not a big fan of always talking about money, luxury items even with peers. If money/possessions is all someone can/wants to talk about then we’re just two very different people.

Not sure what gay pride has to do with people also wanting to be able to perform drag shows in front of young children, but from my vantage point, the two seem to be connected somehow these days. Like many on here, I also have good friends who are gay, and I’m glad they can live their lives as they desire (the government needs to stay out of the marriage issue all together btw). But I find it interesting (and strange) how the left wants to be able to lump drag queen shows in front of young children as part of gay rights? Or how banning gender surgical operations for children is a bad thing?

It’s not low SA, it’s arrogance.

What are the bank limitations during close trail in the T-6? Asking for a friend…

You did a barrel roll in the T-6 while in close trail? When and where?

The confusion on my part was the barrel roll in close trail vs extended trail. The video posted helped clear that up. As for the two aircraft being different, I did a google search and your post checks lol.

Just know that in the T-6 you can’t be that close, that’s why I was surprised. Back in my T-37 days as a stud I remember the IPs occasionally doing ET3 and if I had to guess the range was similar to that of the T-6.

You’re doing barrel rolls over a T-38 1-2 ship lengths away?

In the T-6 it’s extended trail vs close trail. How close is close trail in the 38?

In close trail? Damn that would be close!

Yeah, but you have an iPad/FF…I’d trust that by itself in a pinch!

Solid analysis—concur.

Apparently the NAACP believes Florida is hostile to black people and black people should avoid traveling there. https://www.nationalreview.com/news/naacp-issues-florida-travel-advisory-its-hostile-to-black-americans/?fbclid=IwAR35ZzlvvNb6nKenJ6LmJdiLoH7dF2dcA_NlAc-MyBNkxJx0pR1W3PpiuO4_aem_th_AfDupOme7EF41e5OYX_WsMS5DAnjoO38uiIfu2bh8APAu57B6tQH886IM5WLpmnx9oc&mibextid=Zxz2cZ

Biden screwed himself/the Dems saying he would only sign a clean bill. The GOP passed a bill to raise the debt and if McCarthy allows for a clean bill to go forward, his control and speakership is done. My prediction: It won’t be a clean debt raise. Even in 2011/2012 the debt raise showdown was eventually tied to future triggers to cut/slow the spending growth (sequestration). And I don’t see Biden using the 14th Amendment since Congress controls the spending.

Predictions with the debt limit fight?

Can you provide definition of the word “woman”?

Oh it’s messed up for sure, but that’s where we’re at. Eventually if it’s gets bad enough, then a strong majority of people will say it needs to stop. But we’re not even close to that point yet, so the insanity not only continues, it will get much worse.

Follow these simple steps: 1) Don’t go to NYC, if you do, don’t ride the subway 2) Keep to yourself…it’s not worth helping other random people against a criminal, especially if you’re in an area/state that values race above all else and also cares about criminals over others 3) If someone is attacking you, hopefully you’re not in a city/county/state (as mentioned in #2), but if you need defend yourself, make sure you’re verbally telling the criminal/people around you that you’re fearing for your life, etc before you take action if you can. Im definitely not an attorney, but this seems to make some sense these days.

We are truly living in an era where just about anyone can feel like they’re a victim for one reason or another. One of those areas is the “haves vs have nots”…the enlisted, more specifically the younger ones, can easily believe they’re part of the “have nots”, especially when compared to the officers. But like you said, if a young enlisted member plays it smart, they can easily exponentially improve their pay, education, skills, etc in not a long time. But hey, it’s easier to play the victim card or tell people they’re a victim.

I think the OP should ask his soon to be T-1 IPs for their advice…

A 2Lt with 4 kids is going to struggle as well. Life choices include proper family planning. I grew up in the 80s and was one of 4 kids…before my mom went back to work full time, money was extremely tight. I had an older sister, so all my clothes were hand me downs from neighbors. Tuna fish casserole and spaghetti were common dinners…that and sometimes pancakes, or grilled cheese and tomato soup. Rarely ever went out for dinner, to include fast food. Only time I ever got a new toy was my birthday or Xmas, and it definitely wasn’t excessive. Only vacation was driving once every couple of years to see our cousins a few states away. My parents were never on food stamps…maybe they could have, but that’s not what they wanted. And my father was a civil engineer. What I’m saying is that our culture today (including those in the military) is to make excuses for those who make less than good choices. Living an early life that is less than ideal teaches you and your kids many important lessons.

You keep saying you’re done, I’ve lost all credibility, blah blah blah. And you keep swearing because you’re so upset…are you ok? Honestly? Like I said, I’m all for the enlisted getting paid more. But acting like life choices has nothing to do with those who struggle/their financial woes is completely disingenuous. The most successful enlisted members I worked with lived well below/within their means and made good choices—what does this mean? They had a basic car that was 5-10 years old, they didn’t blow their per diem (and then some) at the bar, they didn’t have a motorcycle in addition to their car, they didn’t go to the strip bars, they’re we’re spending money on different women all the time, they didn’t have tattoos, they were alway taking educational classes, on and on. And the ones that didn’t do as well, well, they did the opposite of all those things and more.

You’re really struggling here man. And if Stewart is so smart on the issue then he wouldn’t have been so wrong on stats.
