So I work for an ambulance company here in the Hudson Valley. A crew I work with brought someone home on hospice the other day who is an employee at the Trump country club in East Fishkill. She showed my coworker a video on her phone from Eric Trump, it was a video message he had made for her...
I would like to attend this. I've taken a few basic pistol courses and it's been too long since I've been at the range. I've got a 9mm Shield I got in March and still haven't even shot yet :-p Shame on me....
The established Republican party is a complete joke. We are approaching 20 trillion in debt with a Republican controlled house, are you freaking kidding me?
Registered Libertarian here who wishes Gary Johnson would leave now and never come back.
Yes if the wound is up near the iliac crest and you can't get a tourniquet above it, then a direct pressure device like a junctional tourniquet is really the best option. But they're bulky and cumbersome to use. Not something you can toss in a pocket or a kit really.
Gotta be honest, this is really no different to me than the NFL players kneeling for the anthem. When you're an employee you're bound by a set of guidelines you have to abide by.

Anybody who has been following this and is interested, we are setting up a day o 10/30, see here:
Medical Training Day, 10/30, lower Hudson valley area...
If it's the video I'm thinking of, the authorities shot this dude in the street and he had a femoral artery bleed. They literally stood there and watched him bleed to death in the middle of the street. A tourniquet would have given him a shot at making it. Direct pressure would have been very...
There are many tourniquet designs on the market. As far as I'm aware the CAT is the preferred tourniquet of the US Military. The commission on tactical emergency casualty care does not take a stance on a preferred model, they just give guidelines on what a tourniquet should do. Recently all...
Joel, how does around 1pm sound? My wife has something going on in the morning and I have to watch the baby. Is anybody else interested in this? There seemed to be a lot of interest in the other thread....
10 minutes in, Trump is a man defeated, being attacked on all sides from liberal moderators. They aren't gonna talk about anything other than the tape, King Hillary accepts the nomination....
Alright guys there seemed to be a fair amount of interest in this when I floated the idea. Lets shoot for the 30th, I just need someone to figure out a location, maybe someone has a clubhouse at the range or something. If there's A/V equipment I can hook a laptop in, even better.
This would be...
HRC stands on a podium talking about free everything for everyone, her and Bernie talk about how their supporters live in their parents basements, we are hearing a re-hash of the same nonsense we heard the past 2 election cycles from the left... There's been the most liberal progressive in the...
Everything they are teaching civilian medics stateside now about trauma care is based on lessons learned from military medicine, you're exactly right.

I posted in the prepping forum about doing an informal in-extremis medical training day. Things like hemorrhage control, airway control and fixing immediate life threats before definitive medical care can be rendered.
If anyone wants to get in on this, let's pick a Sunday in late October and...
HA! Yup, that looks like rigor to me......
I'm sure his handlers are well aware of this possibility and are preparing him thusly. I honestly think he is going to wipe the stage with her.
... poor stage
I've taken a few courses with Chris also, you always get more than your money's worth. I wish there were more on Sundays though, I work every Saturday :-p
Hehe, I can carry in your county but you can't ;-)
WHOA, a real John Maclane over here!!!!
Haha, seriously though... Lefty appendix carry-er here. Right now an M&P Compact in either an Incog, Raven vanguard2 or a 4 Corners Concealment AIWB holster. I had an instructor show me how easy it is...
This. I didn't habitually lock up my EDC handgun until I had a kid. Now not even a stray piece of ammo is unsecured. It's got nothing to do with the government mandating that I do that. When my kid is old enough and responsible enough and I feel that she can be trusted, my security strategies...
I am. There is going to be a lot of alcohol. Drink whenever Hillary lies (basically whenever she opens her mouth). I'm supposed to be at work at 0600 on Tuesday. It's gonna be a rough morning.
I'm still not 100% sold that Hillary will actually show up for the debate. I think Trump is gonna eat...
I just gave up my Sirius subscription cos they charge outlandish fees, but I really liked listening to Andrew Wilkow. Even paying for service, wayyyyy too many advertisements. I listen to the Dana Show syndicated on Apple podcasts now.

@Calculon it can be whatever people want it to be. What the military learned is that uncontrolled bleeding, airway obstruction, collapsed lungs are the three biggest preventable causes of death on the battlefield. People with these conditions generally don't make it alive to the hospital for...
