    NJ gets sued for banning suppressors

    You haven't been paying attention, sir. The Big Beautiful Bill removed silencers from the NFA.

    2 shootings in Rochester- Amazon & Wegmans

    I might know why. I worked at that Wegmans warehouse for a bit. I busted my ass stacking boxes on pallets for 8 hours a day, making $10/hr. Meanwhile, three senior guys stood at the end of the line shooting the shit. When my pallet was full, one of them would hop on a ride-on pallet jack, lift...

    Multi-Billion Dollar Boondoggle: Biden Admin Plan For Electric Mail Trucks Flops Massively

    Maybe, but if so, $200k per charger? WTF... I suspect what they're doing government accounting tricks. Sure, it's "only" $78k per vehicle for the production contract, but we spent $200k per (projected) vehicle on R&D that we're now pretending isn't part of the total cost. Of course, now that...

    Multi-Billion Dollar Boondoggle: Biden Admin Plan For Electric Mail Trucks Flops Massively

    Phew... $10B for 35,000 vehicles? That's almost $286k per vehicle. Also known as A COMPLETE RIPOFF.

    ‘Late Show’ with Stephen Colbert Canceled on CBS: ‘Financial Decision’

    Have to agree with many of the posts here. When you move from "comedy show for everyone" to "liberal propaganda hour," don't be surprised when half or more of your audience finds something better to do. That said, while I'm pretty sure that didn't help matters, the most likely cause here is the...

    Six Months After California Wildfires, Less Than 100 Building Permits Have Been Issued in Los Angeles

    A few thoughts: California, meh. They get what they voted for. I am not a proponent of this constant cycle of building in disaster-prone areas, then seeing them wiped out by a disaster, and rebuilding in the same place. At the very least, we need to prevent taxpayers - and insurance payers -...

    Albany’s latest: ban aftermarket car stereos

    Yup, same ol' Albany logic. Person kills another person with a gun, we must outlaw guns, never mind that murder was already illegal.

    Albany’s latest: ban aftermarket car stereos

    Seems pretty pointless. One, how would they know that it requires an external power supply? Two, you don't need an external power supply to make a ton of noise. I was into aftermarket systems when I was younger. My system registered 143.3 dB in a competition, powered by a stock alternator, and I...

    Mass State Police Will Be Randomly Stopping Vehicles In Massachusetts This Friday

    Either your BIL isn't telling you the whole story, or he found the worst lawyer ever. My money is on the former.

    Mass State Police Will Be Randomly Stopping Vehicles In Massachusetts This Friday

    No. They had no valid reason to pull him over in the first place.

    Pond scum Schumer rushed to hospital in DC for "dehydration"

    He can't grill for shit. ...oh, we already knew that, too.

    Mass State Police Will Be Randomly Stopping Vehicles In Massachusetts This Friday

    I think you have some of your facts mixed up. Refusing a breathalyzer can result in an automatic 1 year license suspension and $500 fine (first offense), and said refusal can be used as evidence against you in a DWI trial. It is not an automatic DWI.

    NYS ends the 100’ rule for natural gas hook ups putting the full cost on homeowners

    You gotta adjust your phone's autocorrect settings or something. Seems like at least 50% of your posts have issues like this :ROFL:
