    Marist College Statement on the Executive Order...

    I bet they would make it a 6 credit course. I hate that school.. My daughter texts me each time the kids around her object to something Trump has done. Sometimes she cant believe what they are saying, other times she says "dad, did Trump really do this or that, it seems horrible" As soon...

    Marist College Statement on the Executive Order...

    New Paltz sent out a similar memo. Not to defend them however, schools are suggesting students from the 7 countries do not travel internationally because the student may not be able to return. New Paltz went farther to condemn the executive order. At least Marist didn't flat out condemn the...

    Schumer, the schumck......

    Schumer - "I really really really mean it. I am not going to let this happen. Really. Don't make me draw a line in the sand" (as visions of Obama danced through his head).

    Senior Secret Service agent suggests she wouldn't take 'a bullet' for Trump

    What? You are going to fire me? Oh, wait, I didn't mean it. I was just being emotional over something that happened years ago. Funny how people's stories change when their livelihood is challenged.

    Schumer ready to leave Supreme Court seat open

    The idiot is use to speaking with authority and seeing things get done. He can stand their and beat his chest over this all he wants. The sad thing is, when he is proven wrong, he will not understand why or how it happened.

    A Letter From Andrew Cuomo

    A never ending twisting of the truth. Build up our infrastructure = Tappan Zee bridge - while the rest of our roads continue to deteriorate. Solar farm - at a cost far greater than it will EVER save. College more affordable? Hasn't happened yet and most likely will not. Raise up the middle...

    National Firearms Reciprocity Bill Introduced

    Obviously but that wouldn't stop him from trying. Remember, with all the positive measures he thinks he took to protect NY and the country from guns, he will not sit idol and let people come into and out of the state without doing everything to try and stop it.

    National Firearms Reciprocity Bill Introduced

    Anti's will try all sorts of things to prevent the intent of this. I could see Cuomo trying to revoke ALL concealed carry permits in NY. Regardless, this is a move in the right direction regardless of its lack of perfection. For those of us who travel out of state and have a carry permit, it...

    North korea...

    The world is watching Trump. Many think he is all talk, others think he is over inflated and still others think he is crazy to the point of not knowing what he is doing. Someone is going to test him to see how he reacts. It wont be an attach directly on the US rather someone will do something...

    Get Home Bag

    I posted earlier in this tread, I pack it as a bugout bag. It stays in the car for 2 reasons: 1. Its in the car and cuts down on having to grab it if time is short. 2. It acts as a get home bag if needed by removing un-needed items if there is a need for speed. I look at it like this, the...

    I keep the documents on that site local on an old iphone in my BOB. I have also keep a solar charging panel and quick charge battery pack for the phone.

    I put together a gazillion documents for just in case. Check http://www.realitybleed.com/ . There is a zip file with a bunch docs on bugout. A good rule to follow is over pack and if the situation arises to use the bag, go through it and discard items you may not need. For example, I tend to...
