    Looking for the brain trust here to provide some guidance. The facts: I live out in the country attend a very small church with a small congregation was recently asked to be a member of the security team I currently carry a concealed 9mm with a laser sight and it’s loaded with home defense rounds What would you guys recommend carrying that has decent range, stopping power and also works well as a concealable carry weapon? What would your load-out consist of? Any particular brands I should absolutely go with? For what it’s worth, I was thinking a front holster IWB, but am open to suggestions. I appreciate your guys’ opinions and expertise.
  2. One was most likely a Stub flight that forgot to update the callsign in ACARS. It’s definitely not the first time that a crew forgot to update the flight number callsign.
  3. There is a case, Brown v Walker (1896) where it is affirmed by the Supreme Court that “([I]f the witness has already received a pardon, he cannot longer set up his privilege (ie claiming the Fifth), since he stands, with respect to such offense, as if it had never been committed.). http://cdn.loc.gov/service/ll/usrep/usrep161/usrep161591/usrep161591.pdf While I agree, some liberties were taken to grandstand and make a point of embarrassing the guy, he should have answered any questions asked within the scope of his pardon. Not doing so has just guaranteed that there will be further attempts, using the above ruling, to try and enforce penalties for his refusal to answer.
  4. Looks like a shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner while Trump was there. No casualties being reported. Gunman in custody. Crazy to me that someone would be able to get a weapon into an event like that, but where there is a will, I guess there is a way. More news coming out now and it looks like the dude just sprinted past a security checkpoint inside the hotel and shot a Secret Service agent (who luckily was wearing a vest) as he blitzed by.
  5. Looks like Bill is beginning to take on aspects of the Biden walk. Complete with what looks like dressed up tennis shoes.
  6. Probably claimed he was a lady during the Biden DEI hiring boom.
  7. You guys got a litho? Well s**t

    Yeah, I agree. Definitely should’ve gone along the lines of the Coalition for the Liberation of Itinerant Tree dwellers. Uploading Attachment...
  9. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/3801410/charlie-kirk-utah-valley-university-shooting/ so is Washington Examiner. and Truth Social via Trumps account:
  10. I was thinking the same thing. Auto license suspension for 90 days in Tx with a refusal, but you can appeal within 15 days. Does saying I would rather have a blood test count as refusal to the officer who stopped you?

    Just looked up the figures in Balkoski’s Omaha beach book. His research states, ”the invasion plan had assumed 600 Germans would initially resist the assault on Omaha Beach.” ”Instead of 600 defenders, the real number would be more like 1,100–and made up of troops the German high command rated in its highest combat category, meaning they were fully mobile and capable of launching large-scale attacks.” Intelligence had missed the redeployment in March of the 352nd Infantry Division to reinforce Omaha. Intel also declared only a single enemy battalion was posted in reserve behind Omaha, but with the redeployment of the 352nd, “that reinforcement number was increased to at least five.”

    Truly the greatest generation if you’re interested in the minutiae of D-day at Omaha beach, highly recommend Omaha Beach by Balkoski. This book delves down to the second when things occurred and gave me a whole new appreciation of the hell those guys went through securing the beach head.
  13. I think they are really focusing on the known bad dudes they talked about in the press leading up to the election (murderers, child rapists, gang members, etc) and getting them booted from the country. Once they begin the second phase of finding people here illegally that are workers just trying to make a way in life, and they get push back from those politicians and others trying to hinder their efforts, I predict a few high profile arrests and charges to get people’s attention. Sometimes you gotta let the kids touch the hot stove to learn the lesson.
  14. It’s so easy guys: Why don’t we just give UPT over to DOGE? Surely Elon can right this ship. /s

    Learjet 55 crashed in Philadelphia. A plane crashed into a neighborhood in Philadelphia on Friday night, leaving multiple homes on fire. ABC 6 Action News reported that the plane was a “small plane,” although no specifics were given about the number of people on board or the type of aircraft. The crash happened in an area in the north-eastern part of the city just shortly after 6 p.m. The report said that the plane appeared to hit “several buildings and cars in the area” and that multiple casualties have been reported.
