IIRC that used to be the conventional wisdom back in the timeframe he was talking about before airlines were hiring like they are today. 121 time would push guys over the edge to get a call. My point was that 121 time is no longer required, and having a clean record and currency is more important for a military guy. Going to a regional isn't a requirement and won't really do anything for you if you're a current/qualified mil guy these days. But you're right. If your separation date is upcoming (admittedly, I didn't think of it within the context of an active duty guy retiring) and you haven't heard anything or if you don't have the hours yet, absolutely go get a job at a regional.

Old gouge. If you're current, you don't need to waste your time with a regional. I had 1750 (1500 PIC) hrs TT when I got hired last year.

Says who?

Go for it. While you're at it, let's fix the anchor baby and term limits issues.

Yes. Next question.

Some of you are quick to give up rights. Here's the problem: once they're gone, you'll never get it back. The Second Amendment protects our right to bear arms just like the First Amendment protects our right to free speech (Congress shall make no law). It's not a negotiable document. As stated above, we have a violence problem and a mental health problem in this country. Making law abiding citizens into criminals won't solve that. Punishing the millions of law abiding gun owners because of the acts of a few psychopaths won't solve that either. Whether you agree with it or not, the Second Amendment was designed to defend the First Amendment. We are absolutely intended to be as well armed as the military because the founders wanted the government to fear the people and not the other way around. We've already given up enough (NFA, etc). Now is not the time to give up because of one horrific incident. It's a very slippery slope.

So if you're "Very pro-second Amendment" then what is your solution to avoid violating infringement?

You'll lose. Automatics are illegal. Grenades. We need to do better than arguing the old men who wrote the 2nd amendment surely would have been cool with what happened in Vegas. Automatics are not illegal and neither are grenades. Why would using the Second Amendment cause me to lose? Do you support the Constitution or not?

Shall not be infringed. It's the only justification necessary.

No fucking way was it just a dude having a bad day. This was planned.

All of them are. VFA-204 is the only Navy Reserve squadron that pretends to still have a "strategic reserve" posture. VFC-12, VFC-13, and VFC-111 are all adversary-only and Navy Reserve. With Legacy Hornets, VFC12 and VFA-204 struggle to provide enough flyable aircraft and usually have to rely on each other to supplement support detachments. NAWDC is active duty and does Top Gun support, but they are not an adversary squadron per se.

At this rate, there won't be any bros left in a few years.
