Unfortunately, you were already in violation of Title 39 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 232.1 (also 39 CFR § 232.1) which states "no person may carry or store firearms, explosives, or other dangerous or deadly weapons on USPS property, either openly or concealed, except for official purposes." This includes vehicles parked on postal property. Unlike 18 U.S. Code §930, which prohibits carry in Federal facilities, the CFR covers "any portions of real property, owned or leased by the Postal Service, that are leased or subleased by the Postal Service to private tenants for their exclusive use" https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/39/232.1 I got into a debate with the owner of the Rio Medina General Store who felt because they leased a small section in the back to the USPS, the entire property fell under this regulation. She was wrong. Luckily, local police don't enforce Federal laws; it would most likely require a Postal Inspector and they are rare birds to see in the wild! I am glad a court finally addressed this unconstitutional restriction, it will be interesting to see how quickly the correction is implemented (already doubtful) especially consider the shutdown that started today...

I'm sure he's great. It's not like we have a cadre of purely sociopathic generals. But the nature of the system is such that only "yes men" are going to make it to the top. There's no real metric for effectiveness or success when we aren't in a global war of existential magnitude, so ass-covering and knob-polishing are the prerequisites. How many shitty bosses with toxic leadership did this guy serve without quitting? How about the first time his commander in chief babbled nonsensically on the global stage from 2017-2021? No, because there was still runway ahead for his career. These are the same chumps that spent their youth in the O-Clubs with strippers, drove back to their dorms drunk, then 20 years later told us with a straight face that if you have more than 3 drinks in a night (0-0-1-3) you are a bad officer, while neglecting to mention they have a bottle of Scotch in their Wing King desk. There was never a cause-of-the-day they wouldn't support, whether it was the drunk-sex-is-rape crusade of 2003, the great heritage room massacre of 2012, the Covid firings, or the transification attempt only recently squashed. They love their country, and they served it more than most Americans could ever fathom. But they were not, are not, men of principal and backbone. They are the ones who could best morph into whatever the next boss wanted from them, and the idea that an All-Call would be the last straw is laughable.

Court: Post Office Gun Ban is Unconstitutional A couple years ago I was running errands and had to stop at the Post Office to drop off a package and grab some stamps. I had my pistol and I was about to get out of my truck when I remembered. For a second I thought, meh I will only be in there for a minute but I took the extra .69 seconds and took it off and under the seat. I was standing in line and felt someone right behind me, I turned around and it was cop...probably just running an errand himself but my heart skipped a beat for a second.

Perhaps you are talking to different people than I am. I had nothing but good interactions with him.

Oh please. The only sword these guys fall on is the fleshy kind that gets you promoted if you don't gag too hard on it. His plan fell apart, so he's leaving. Same as it ever was.

Bussiere is a different cat, he was never up for CSAF. Worst kept secret was him being next VCSAF...it was a done deal. Maybe he had enough....maybe Trumps driveling speech about cardstock and paper weight probably pushed him over the edge.

Is he fat? Edit: He just lost the contest for CSAF. Or doesn't like the winner. Bleh. Also I wish they would stop acting like getting paid millions by joining a Defense Contractor for their military connections is somehow "finding new ways to support our Air Force, our national defense, and the incredible people." No speech required. Thank you for your service. Next.

After only 40 years of service, what a quitter!

I hope he doesn’t go after fat contractors Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Wilsbach officially nominated...god bless all of you on active duty. Rumor says he declined twice but was strong-armed into taking the job.

Would Stormin Norman Schwarzkopf be on the chopping block?

First one to punch out post meeting.

getting fired would be better

The gathering of the Juggalos.

In person is worse than Twitter / X. UF fraternities circa 2023 post Jordan Travis injury.

Having played college ball my limited experience was UF fans were the worst. Sorry @M2 you are like a brother but the things I saw back in the day. Anyway, FSU has now said hold my beer. Simply disgusting.

Look at this slob...those poor buttons.

The Navy has done command wide pt tests twice a year for damn near forever. It honestly was pretty easy, everyone counted for their partner and we all would run together. Took maybe 3 hours on some random morning. It’s actually a lot easier to coordinate than worrying about random dates throughout the year for each individual person.

When is Fat Tony retiring from USAFA?

So did anyone get fired from the big meeting? I was told there would be drama...

Standards for everyone set at the appropriate male-based levels for physically demanding jobs. What a novel concept. I’m OK with a separate PT test for the non-combat side, but if you’re in a combat job or may see combat because you get attached to a combat unit, you must perform at a higher physical level.

Let's see how many flag officers evaporate now that they have to pass the PT test twice a year 🤣😂. It's so refreshing to have someone in charge of the Department of Murdering Foreigners say out loud that fat people are gross and shouldn't be in the military. Pete just won some points in my book.

This. Unless it's the R-9X Ginsu variant, which is kinetic, but we would see the blades out in that video.

15-20k is one hour of C-17 flight time also. Obviously not the intended receiver, but again really not that much.
