Guess we'll see how 2A friendly our current administration is with regards to an appeal. One thing I've noticed is governments HATE to give up power no matter who's in charge. Prosecutors like to keep statutes like these on the books to hold over certain defendants to coerce please deals.

SPECIAL REPORT: When Florida police act like they’re working in California - Second Amendment Foundation Something about Florida and SBRs. Sucks for this guy but it may make a decent test case, but I suspect the second it looks like the government will lose in court they'll drop the charge to moot the case. Or the tried-and-true plea bargain with the no-appeal rights deal.

Or decides to make one the size of a Shahed track the ILS/FAF on a low IFR day. Maybe it gets picked up on radar in time.

Russia Faces Growing Fuel Crunch as Ukrainian Strikes Knock Out Refineries I'm may still be shouting at the clouds but if Ukraine can do it then I figure we can too.

My biggest fear for situations like this is that the cops realize they effed up and drop a bag to justify everything and avoid making him a millionaire. Again, the presence of cameras has helped mitigate that in modern times but still.

I so hope it's 4. (Get down to business after the mid-terms) Our politicians are largely oblivious to the fact that their negative comments are watched closely by the IRGC and like many of our conflicts since 1945 our wars are not lost on the battlefield but in the court of public opinion. Iranian oil refining/transportation infrastructure needs to start having a run of industrial accidents especially after the first week in November.

I certainly wouldn't take Kharg Islang given it would leave our troops in a horribly exposed position. However, I would emphasize to Iran that if we feel we are being forced to take a deal we don't like Kharg and anything else related to oil transport or refining in Iran will be made a smoking pile of wreckage. On that note even when they try to rebuild, we'll keep hitting it so good luck with that. It doesn't take a lot to destroy refining capacity. Back to one of my earlier comments Israel is the perfect proxy as they are very capable, really don't care about US politics and give us all kinds of plausible deniabilty.

On board the 1st electric plane Not directly related to the current conflict but I can see these especially the EVTOL version eventually finding a place on the battlefield. Greatly reduced noise signature. All about how far we can push state of the art for the battery power/energy density now.

Drone boat rescued two US aviators after their Army helicopter went down near the Strait of Hormuz - Anchorage Daily News Home | Saronic Technologies Part of the brave new world. I would think the USCG would be heavily into using these as well.

Destroy their ability to refine fuel. Modern military forces going back to WW2 can't function without fuel. Make it hard to move resources like missiles around the country or fuel small boats etc Of course, the US citizens of today couldn't endure the hardships of the WW2 generation and our adversaries know that. In 1945 we were in it to win it elections or not.

I wish I could say I'm surprised. I've heard stories going back decades about Arkansas LE planting drugs. My optimistic side thinks that the prevalence of cameras now has made it a little harder to get away with this. Used to be it was the cop's word and that was the end of the story. She was lucky and could have easily been doing 10 years claiming her innocence the whole time. I always wonder how someone or their friends or family with say some military training and a less sympathetic attitude to being setup might react. At this point the system has made it clear the rules are out the window. This to me is big reason I like radar detectors. Aside from not doing things like driving under the influence or other shenanigans, I greatly reduce the chance of an encounter with LE. Like the flight doc no one comes out of an encounter with LE having a better day than when they started.

Epic would be printing this and autographed by all four crewmen. New Callsign "Pronebone"

Not to mention having a strong ally like the US who could bail them out if things truly went sideways. We get plausible deniability under most circumstances and they go make next level trouble for our adversaries.

That's why I think IF it passes it will include most if not all service members. Trying to actually define who gets the benefit that will pass legal muster is where the devil resides.
