My dad taught 6th grade for 51 years. He has many stories about the behavior of kids from the late 50s when he started until 2010 when he retired. He retired because of the kids behavior, but mostly due to the behavior of the parents. He once had a mother come to his classroom, during class and...
Unfortunately 12-14 year old "children" are not the same as they were when many of us were kids.
They are hardened criminals with dozens of felonies and multiple arrests on their records.
Hell, in some 3rd world countries a 14 year old is a prime soldier.
If they did in fact brandish pistols...
Yep, I gave up on 9mm once I did a bunch of ammo testing. I carry either 10mm or 357 magnum on occasion.
The right 10mm ammo from my g20 is tough to beat.
I would consider 357 Sig myself, but 10mm is much more controllable for me, with equal or better ballistics......with the correct ammo.
The...
Being able to use a handgun well under pressure is not an easy thing, as we know.
I know a couple cops....a deputy and a local Jamestown PD.
One(deputy) Shoots a LOT, loves guns and had dozens of firearms. He is an absolute stud when it comes to shooting.
The local guy.....not so much. :)
The...
This would obviously not pass constitutional muster, but, unfortunately by the time our useless courts get around to it, a bunch of us and our dogs would be dead.
I know exactly 3 people who are planning on voting for RFK, all 3 live in PA.
They all say that if he drops out, they will absolutely vote for Trump.
Like many people, they do not like Trump, but they understand what happens if Harris wins......with regards to the border especially.
I know from...
This is just the beginning.
There will be millions of illegal votes cast in November.
But, if you mention it, you may get arrested. We were taught in 2020 that ANY mention of election fraud will NOT be tolerated, and may be prosecuted. Just like ANY disagreement with the government narrative is...
The law clearly states you MUST have the 18 hours of "training" to carry a handgun concealed in NYS.
This is pretty clear everywhere I look.....so it MIGHT be correct. :)
Here it is from NYS, but the NYSP and my county site say the exact same thing. The only real change in the carry law is that...
Are you serious?
The reason the SCOTUS is the supreme law of the land is exactly what you just said.
Absolutely nowhere did I even suggest that they make laws, nowhere.
I am pretty versed in this stuff for a couple decades.
Did you read what I posted?
The constitution literally calls the SCOTUS...
Not my words, but the exact words used in Article 111, section 11 of the constitution of the United States.
The SCOTUS was specifically formed to keep states from overreach and hurting the nation.
And nowhere did I even suggest that the SCOTUS "creates law".
My very words convey that they...
In both Heller and Bruin the SCOTUS says intrest balancing is a no go.
Again, the SCOTUS is the supreme law of the land. Just because a lower...or inferior....court says something is constitutional, does NOT mean that it is constitutional. This law, as all the others will find out when/if they...
Here is a bit of wisdom Ive learned from my chef friends.
Before culinary school, the students buy $1000 sets of fancy knives.
After school and a few years of being a chef, they buy the $35 carbon steel knives from the restaurant supply store. Same goes for pans.
That said......you can't go...
The states do NOT get to override the constitution.
Things like abortion, gay marriage...... sure, they are not mentioned in the constitution, so, the state makes its own rules to a point. However, the SCOTUS is still the supreme law of the land. If a state makes an absurd law, the SCOTUS can...
Read my response to @Cooolone
I REALLY should have said in my post that he pounded 2x on the windshield, then walked back to his truck bitching. I believe he realized this was a single woman and decided to take a different approach.
By the time he actually started getting in his truck, she...
Of course I was not there, but this is the way we learn.
My wife has never been in any type of altercation, not even a cross word with someone. We train a lot around here. A lot of getting to your gun and getting the first shot.......her skills are decent. But......being a passive person, her...
A couple weeks ago my wife did a really dumb thing that I have warned her about.
She was driving down a rural county road.....between Busti NY and Panama NY.
There was a pick up truck tailgating her at about 50 miles an hour.
The speed limit was 45, but she allowed this guy to push her faster...
Ohhh, I didn't think you were putting them down, and don't care if you did.
Im not a fan of Canik. The only reason I bought it was because it was cheap and available at the local Runnings during a sale when the local permit clerk was at Runnings adding pistols to permits.
I had $700 in my...
Its not cut......another big reason I most likely will not get an optic on it.
The only place I have experience with is Jaeger Works, they did a great job but I can probably find a less expensive option. There are a lot of machine shops locally here in WNY. I do not believe an optic cut is...
It goes back to Obama and his overuse of the word Democratic.
HE was the one to start this "the Conservatives are destroying democracy" crap when he was president. We didn't even notice back then.....but he has ALWAYS had a plan. Nobody better sleep on Obama, he is still EXTREMELY relevant in US...
A lot of people are comparing them to the big guys. It probably doesn't mean much to some of you guys, but guys like Honest Outlaw on youtube, who has always been a glock fanboy, has said that Canik is BETTER than glock due to the trigger and ergonomics. He has reviewed many hundreds of handguns...
I bought this Canik TP9SFx in 2021.
I fired a few boxes through it with no issues, then decided to keep track of the rounds. This was just done for fun.
This week I fired 150 rounds that brought the total to 12,000 rounds sinse ive kept track. There are maybe another 300-400 rounds before I...
I agree 100%.
Years ago some Crappie just happened to "find" their way into our ponds.
This spring I caught a 14.5 inch Crappie.
Im going to believe that wasn't the biggest one, what are the odds?
Now we have Bluegill, Perch, Bullhead, SM Bass, and monster Crappie.
Im hoping to someday have a...
Obama CAN run for VP and there is nothing stopping him from finishing the term as president if the president steps down........according to smarter people than me. :)
Even worse, we could end up with Obama again!!!
Obama can run as VP to Harris, then if Harris steps down.....BAM......Obama can finish the term as president. Not even kidding, this is a possibility that MANY democrats would love.
I just took time to read that steaming pile of garbage from Vox. Once again, Trump is the one to promote violence, not Macine Waters, not Shumer, not Antifa, nit the lying media.....but Trump is promoting political violence.
But, they can NEVER say how.
We have dozens and dozens of examples of...
Thats exactly it.
There are many prople in this country who believe things if they hear them enough. This is actually a known psychological thing. Its close to Stockholm Syndrome psychologically.
Not everyone is susceptible, just people "willing" to be fooled.
Half this nation has been...
Im not sure the other facilities around the state can absorb 600 more inmates.
So, I guess its back to the streets!
Except for the white guys, they're too dangerous to be let out.
Im not sure if any were harassed after the Waters speech, but she said it because of the incident that Sara Huckabee, Trumps press secretary at the time, went through. And Trumps Director of Homeland Security at the time was also harassed at a restaurant by protesters I believe.
I do vaguely...
I try to watch Rumble but there isn't much there that interests me.
Peter Santenello, The Why Files........the hot gun chick.........a few others.
We do not have cable, all our TV is from the Internet.
We have many apps like Tubi, Kodi, Plex, Cinema HD......but mainly watch youtube because its...
None of your business!!!
JK, just groups like this and such talking about this topic.
All of these social media companies are banning anything slightly right wing but allowing some seriously sick shit that truly damages children.
Some day they will find out what they have done.
Unfortunately...
I LOVED that Dana White introduced Trump just months after being filmed smacking his wife!!
Thats gonna get the leftists fired up.
Yes, I have a bit of evil in me. :)
Yes, but they are NOT censoring male anal bleaching, how to be the perfect "bottom", or how to give a non toothy blowjob.
Not even kidding, full spread hairy man ass being waxed and bleached!!
I was going to post a video but decided not to, sorry @Darth
A few years ago I bought some compact rubber grips and inserts for my GP100 from Altamont.
The grips were fine, but the inserts were not.
I ordered the Silverblack grips but when they came, they were JET black with zero noticeable grain....not at all what was pictured on their site. I posted...
Not trying to rub it in, but I seriously take for granted that I live on the PA border.
The closest gun shop to me is about 5 miles.......in PA.
Then there is a Dunhams about 20 miles away with a huge selection of guns and ammo. All the shops near the border sell NY compliant rifles.
One just...
A friend has 1 older Jackery 500 watt and a newer 1000 watt one.
I have been shocked how well it works even with power tools and TV for hours.
He usually charges from his truck but it charges relatively quick with the solar.
And, you can use it while its charging.
He uses it mostly for his...
It really amazes me how these Midwest states (Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota....) have been voting for the NEW democrats over the last decade.
People in those states used to vote Blue because of the Democrats stance on unions, but the new, woke democrats are NOT what they used to be.
The...
