The big divide in this country is urban-suburban / semi-rural-rural.
The fact that most urban centers rely on bridges and tunnels to connect them to the mainland would very much result in isolation of antagonists by geography
I have two 686+'s that I really like; 5 inch & a 3 inch barrels. I carry the 5" in the woods when hiking. ( I hike on my hunting clubs property so the pup can run free and I can target shoot). It usually rides in a chest or shoulder holster.
I don't carry the 3" much. I like it but I don't use...
Dems still have time to draft Robert Kennedy. He already pools at ?X%.
He's a recognizable name.
Or does the Democratic Party fracture completely into it's factions?
The Republican Party could also break up into its factions; MAGA v.s traditional Republicans vs, Never Trump, vs. RHINO
It’s not the same: it’s like your neighbor who is so rich he should have had security guards and a security system in place expects you to pay for and make right his failures
The Kuwaitis were rich enough to field a very capable military. They chose not to. They could have hired a hundred thousand Pakistani mercenaries the way they hire tens of thousands of Pakistanis to clean their homes and offices, work in their oil fields. Instead their pilot princes got in their...
My eldest daughter went to school in Montreal for a few years.
She told me you could tell the native Montreal women from the rest because in winter (-40 C &F ) the Canadian women all had beautiful fur coats, or at least very stylish fur trimmed coats.

It's not just Cuba.
In the past 20 some odd years there has been a growing relationship between Venezuela and Iran. Daily non-stop flights between Tehran and Caracas that I've read always include a contingent of Republican Guards.
Venezuela has expressed interest in acquiring a nuclear...
If F-16's we donated to Ukraine are launched from a NATO country to strike Russian troops in Ukraine, or targets in Russia, I have no doubt Putin will order strikes against that NATO country. The Russian people will insist it.
Maybe it means nothing ..., but the world remembers that CONUS and...
We'll supply our NATO allies with the new guns and ammo on the American taxpayer dime.
Our NATO allies will destroy their current issue because... guns are bad.
What tractors, consumer yard machines etc... are made in the USA?
The last riding mower I bought was a Snapper more than 20 years ago.
I see either a new machine in my future, or a move to a retirement beach.
We had Elections during our last Civil War. Abe Lincoln got re-elected and then, assassinated by agents of the side that lost the War.
We had Elections during WW2, Korea, and Vietnam (with all the national and international turmoil, assassinations, riots, strikes, an average of one airplane...
Orange County has the recertification requirement on the instruction sheet for an amendment.
Picked up a used snub Model 10 the other day, FFL said a judge in Ulster County is reviewing your recertification history during any amendment processing and if you have not recertified on states...
Hypothermia can occur at much lower temperatures than people think are dangerous.
One of the largest mass casualty events was a road race in the UK when thousands of runners got wet and then hypothermic on a moderate temperature day.
They used to call it "dying of exposure".
People talk about...
