These driver aids that are recently turning up in cars have been in commercial trucks for a few years now, much to the irritation of those of us driving said trucks. Several of the trucks I drive regularly have forward radar and cameras, which are able to steer and brake the vehicle to maintain...

Long haul is the province of mega carriers who typically pay the worst. Short haul is where the money is, dedicated accounts, LTL and local delivery, and so on. I am local delivery and I make considerably more per week than the majority of OTR drivers. I don’t expect meaningful competition...

So when do the beheadings start? By the standard of the French Revolution we are far overdue…

The downside to all of these, is the learning and experience curve. That becomes tricky to negotiate when you’re already maxing your DOT clock in trucking to make ends meet. Doesn’t leave much time during business hours to come up to speed in another profession.

This is the problem with overly restrictive jurisdictions. People from America live their lives not aware of the insanity we have to live under, and then happen to come here and do what they’ve always done in and around their home area (After all, carrying a pistol in your car is and has been...

It’s the New York standard. Duty to retreat, blah blah blah.

But when?

All well and good but will be of little difference, as the process itself is the punishment, or a major component thereof. Fully expect Hochul to double down and issue a double-crimson plus flag law in response.

I’m quite alright with Candace Owens as VP running mate. I don’t think she’d do it, but she would be good at it.

Thirty counts of what? Existing? Mean tweets? Boning porn stars? Marrying hotter women than this imbecile DA has ever even been within a hundred yards of? There’s so much small dick energy coming off this DA it’s laughable. Someone is definitely trying to prove his worth to his masters.

As if the teachers union cares about a Christian school. Newsflash, they do not. They are adamantly opposed to any school option which is not the state run public education system. Pure political profiteering by Weingarten.

Indeed. Wouldn't it be a trip to find Soros bucks filtering in? Bye, any vestiges of credibility, if they indeed have any following O'Keefe's departure.

None. That’s the point. Can’t have gun without insurance. Can’t get insurance. Ergo, confiscation or at the very least a de facto ban on purchases.

Vacationed in “the hood in the northern woods” as you say? Not often a typical destination for non residents and aberrant enough in my book to warrant further looking about. I mean, who actually goes TO NY to vacation, who doesn’t already live here?

Get your marketable skills up to snuff, the barter economy is on the horizon and closing fast. Oh, and learn the hows and whys of Faraday cages, for the digital tattletale that all this nonsense will inevitably be tied to...

I need to fish where he’s fishing.

But not for the misguided youth, remember…. He gets to Constitutional Carry.

Closest you’re gonna get to that are some trailer parks in Westhampton/Hampton Bays (aka the poor Hamptons). Southampton had undeveloped land in town at $25 million/acre not so very long ago. The people who buy property in Southampton, Bridgehampton, and Easthampton are the people who buy...

All of it, likely. One thing our government seems to be quite good at is creating uprisings and unrest, be it in foreign locations or domestic. Quite outside their charter, should be grounds for public cessation of oxygen consumption for the instigators and their superiors who gave the marching...

I’ve got a Colt Navy Pietta, quite a nice piece. Brass frame, and the cylinder doesn’t lock up correctly, so sadly more of a conversational item at the moment. I’d love to find a smith who could sort it out. I’ve seen a reproduction LeMat… can’t recall who made it but it was quite expensive...

And recently went Constitutional Carry… a step I can’t see PA making any time soon.

Would’ve been amusing if they dropped in front of it and whacked the afterburners. Jet wash can play havoc with prop driven planes. Wonder if that Twitter vid is legit?

Someone needs to smack Lindsey Graham with a frozen trout. Proxy war is quite enough, nobody in the US wants a declared (or undeclared, as in every conflict since Vietnam) war, except stockholders in defense industries.

And that’s gonna do what for private party sales, which are legal in the majority of states? Oh that’s right… nothing. Political grandstanding and stroking his base’s collective schlong, that’s it.

Climate tech? Planet at stake? What a maroon. The planet doesn’t care about your stupid little carbon footprint games. Want to make a difference for the planet? Stop being a fucking slob, personally and corporately. Clean your house, literally and figuratively.

Good. Go woke go broke. Criminals all the way down. The planet will survive just fine.

That’s precisely what it is. People inside who saw it phoning their buddies and saying “Hey, it’s about to get real sporty soon. Get your accounts out of here yesterday!”

We wouldn’t be so lucky.

Over the past few years, there have been an awful lot of things which people would either have been shot for or hung for, not so very long ago.

Loaded if there is a live round in any chamber. Unloaded if all chambers are empty or contain spent casings.

To my way of thinking, the presence or absence of a safety, engaged or not, does not alter the fact that there is (loaded) or is not (unloaded) a round in front of the firing pin. Loaded is the status of the chamber, not any ancillary feeding mechanism whatever that may consist of. I’m sure my...

High school dropout does not equate to ignorant. This is an extremely unfortunate interview, and does not cast him in any kind of favorable light at all. That being said, being the CEO of an airport is hardly a qualifier in my book. CEO seats are not typically filled with the kind of people who...

Loaded implies ready to fire, to me. A gun without a round chambered is effectively inert without further action, namely chambering a round. It cannot be used as anything other than a bludgeon without said action. Ergo, unloaded chamber is unloaded.

Financed? I suspect gifted in advance of future reciprocal payments to the bank accounts of numerous criminals in and around government offices in this country.

Honestly can’t think I have… perhaps rumors of such around a natural disaster down south but that’s all I’ve got. I’m sure such events (deputized citizens) would be quite poorly reported on up here in the great blue northeast, though.

Isn’t that how it’s supposed to work?

New Yorkers have this evil brand of Stockholm Syndrome… after so many years of having fundamental rights infringed, they start to justify it and cast aspersions on other Americans who don’t have the same infringements held over their head. Any and all “gun control” is infringement. If a person...

CP Ward? JD Posillico? JF Creamer? I forget whose trucks were all over it while they were building the new one.

English is hard. The founders wrote the 2A the way they did to head off misinterpretation. Yet here we are. Ham Hogg and every other bleeding idiot that thinks we need to “interpret” a short, concise, simply worded English phrase needs to remove themselves from the gene pool in the most...

Well, which is it? These people have the decisiveness and direction of a squirrel or worse, a deer crossing a highway.

I’d imagine on some level, he’s just another useful idiot. The question is, whose useful idiot is he?

Russian interest is not best served in starting a world war. I feel like our own politburo is the only party interested in that outcome.

Oof. Poor kid must hear all kinds of commentary… I can’t imagine. School age kids are brutal enough without this kind of ammo.

Indeed and it would make sense for the US to do the same. But this is clown world and stupid is smart and smart is criminalized.

More likely they’re cutting exports and keeping their production within their own borders. But this is just conjecture…

My 12 year old daughter had a new student from Guatemala in her class several weeks ago. She spoke no English at all, but my daughter knows a few basic things in Spanish and would sit with her and help out as much as she could. This girl didn’t know where they came from but it was on a plane...

Bartertown from Mad Max may become a reality of sorts.

The problem with reasonable suspicion as frequently applied is that segment of time and events between say, traffic stop and DA. Before the DA chucks it and says this is ridiculous, who’s being detained, car torn apart and possibly damaged on the highway shoulder or in a rest area? Who is losing...

Drugs are the magic word in reasonable suspicion… LEO doesn’t need anything other than to suspect drugs might be present for “reasonable suspicion“ to be applied. Ashes on the dashboard? Reasonable suspicion (despite driver being a cigar smoker). Concealed lockable box or compartment...
