  2. I guess we have an answer on the bounty. Reportedly around 60K. Mail OnlineIran puts BOUNTY on American pilots after US fighter jet...Iranian state media is incentivizing civilians to capture American pilots with a 'reward' after the regime claimed it shot down a US fighter jet.

    1993 CIA headquarters shooting - Wikipedia I've mentioned this incident some time ago in the same context. Bases/Concerts/Outside Airport Security the list is endless. Bad guys don't need to breach security just set where everyone is concentrated and most likely unarmed.

    So, does a Javelin fall under AOW or Destructive Device under the NFA? Need that tax stamp!
  6. Any guesses on the bounty for a live aircrew member? I'll defer to the many on here smarter than me, but we seem to be risking a lot and have literally dodged two bullets. Sooner or later, we'll roll the dice one too many times.
  7. Actually I was referring to Russia. Sorry I wasn't clear. I was making the point how a country might feel backed into a corner and feel like they have no choice but to go on the attack.
  8. THIS! Unfortunately, the 10 percent is what the public sees and forms their opinion. People see gas prices and not much else. Taking out Iran's oil industry is really the only option at this point. Turn off their cash flow. Even if they hit their Gulf neighbors they'll watch as everyone else rebuilds and restart production while they sit on the sideline. They will run out of missiles and I'm sure most if not all of their manufacturing capability is a pile of smoking rubble at this point. On a side note, harsh sanctions against Japan in the 40s pushed them to attack Pearl Harbor and we all know how that movie went. They also had no hope of competing logistically with the US and after 1942 more and more of their assets were the start of artificial reefs with no way to replace them. History repeats.

If this stands it could give a circuit split (however this works in DC) and then on to SCOTUS which is absolutely the last thing any libs want to see. BREAKING NEWS! DC DECLARES EMERGENCY OVER HUGE FEDERAL COURT DECISION!
  10. Especially in rural areas. It arguably has improved a little given social media/cameras are more prevalent unlike years past. Drug Task Force in Crittenden County made some cops quite a bit of money on the side over the years.
  11. (4) Live updates: U.S. sub torpedoes Iranian ship as public mourning delayed for Khamenei Iran really did FAFO
  12. Good to know all those seat inspections from a few years back seem to have been successful 🤔
  13. Romantic tryst led to Mexican cartel leader's capture, death | Reuters Who are we kidding? I think we've all paid a price in our lives at some point because we thought with a certain body part to the exclusion of all else. Sometimes the price can be pretty steep.

  15. I hope Claudia Sheinbaum authorizes us (not that the current administration would really care about asking if it came down to it) to use everything in our arsenal including Hellfire's to assist. Not surprisingly the Cartels are as heavily armed as any insurgency with armored vehicles and RPGs
  16. I see your point. Unfortunately, deaths occur more often than they should because something was unknowingly laced with Fentanyl. Definitely a risk with anything not manufactured commercially.

  19. I guess it depends on his definition of contact. Does flying through a fleet exercise count as contact or does it require landing on the White House lawn?
  20. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2026/02/14/havana-syndrome-cia-norway-experiment/ BLUF: some guy in Norway did an experiment on himself to disprove Havana Syndrome and likely fried his brain in the process.
  21. Seems like I've seen this movie before

    It's funny but suing anyone in the federal government as an individual is usually futile. It seems the only time a federal employee is considered at fault as an individual is if it's a violation of the Anti-Deficiency Act. I'm sure most on here remember a briefing on that at some point in their careers.

    I'm really concerned that the whole NFA fiasco is going to remain a CF long enough to allow a new Congress to make the tax 5k. On another note judges are experts at creative writing when they want a certain outcome. We the people be damned.

    In other news. “Shall not be infringed” right Jeanine? I have a hard time trusting the government no matter who's in charge because of statements like this.
