If traveling overseas no matter your final destination, make sure you have zero rounds of ammo OR SPENT CASINGS anywhere in your carry-on & checked bags.

The Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI), one of those well-known off-shore banking locations, has been cracking down on firearms there.  They now enforce a 12-year mandatory sentence for any firearm related crime -- and that includes accidentally leaving a live or spent round in the bottom of that backpack you took shooting.

More than a decade of your life wasted in a foreign cell and all because you accidentally overlooked contraband.

This is not the only banana republic that does this, but until recently, tourists were given a slap on the wrist fine and nothing else.  Not anymore.

Political Discussion / Neopronouns? Really??
« on: April 27, 2024, 12:05:30 AM »
Quote
Neopronouns are neologistic third-person personal pronouns beyond those that
already exist in a language. In English, neopronouns replace the existing
pronouns "he", "she", and "they".[1] Neopronouns are preferred by some non-
binary individuals who feel that they provide options to reflect their gender identity
more accurately than conventional pronouns.[2][3]

Neopronouns may be words created to serve as pronouns, such as "ze/hir", or
derived from existing words and turned into personal pronouns, such as "fae/faer".[4]
Some neopronouns allude to they/them, such as "ey/em", a form of Spivak pronoun.[5]

A survey by The Trevor Project in 2020 found that 4% of the LGBT youth surveyed
used neopronouns.

52 Voter Fraud Felonies, Sent to Prison

Quote
The wife of a Republican politician in Iowa has been convicted of dozens
of criminal charges related to a 2020 voter fraud scheme aimed at getting
her husband into office.

Department of Justice officials announced the verdict against Kim Phuong
Taylor in a statement released on Tuesday, explaining that she had submitted
absentee ballots on behalf of voters who had not given her permission to do
so.

She was convicted of 52 counts in total, including 26 counts of providing
false information in registering and voting, 23 counts of voter fraud, and
three counts of fraudulently registering to vote.

Off Topic / HPD made DUI arrests despite breath test showing 0.00% BAC
« on: April 25, 2024, 09:38:32 AM »
Hundreds of motorists were arrested on Oahu for DUI even though the drivers registered 0.00 on the Breath Test.

This is another example of law enforcement using arrest powers to increase revenue to the department.

Crazy stories...

In a speech given to survivors and family of gun violence, the Director of the BATFE, Steve Dettlebach, just admitted what we've all known for decades.

Do a web search for "Gun Show loophole," and see how many posts and videos talk about the horrors of that loophole, how it feeds guns to prohibited people, and even floods Chicago with illegal guns.  Also, see how the ATF's new background check and FFL rules are "plugging" this loophole.

After all of that, NOW he admits it was all a lie to push for more gun control?

I'm glad it's on the record.  Now, if only the pro-2A members of Congress would have him testify and grill him over all the other times he preached about closing the gun show loophole.

The statement is near the end of this video at the 5:14 time mark.  Lots of other good points throughout the video regarding the speech, but this one statement needs to go viral.

911 outages in several states caused
by company installing a light pole

Quote
Several states experienced 911 call outages Wednesday evening, which emergency
call system service provider Lumen said were caused by a light pole installation done
by a third party.

A Lumen spokesperson said Thursday in a statement to ABC News, "Some customers
in Nevada, South Dakota, and Nebraska experienced an outage due to a third-party
company installing a light pole -- unrelated to our services."

"We restored all services in approximately two and a half hours," Lumen said. "Our techs
identified the issue and worked hard to fix it as quickly as possible. We apologize for the
inconvenience and appreciate our customers' patience and understanding."

As an IT guy, my first reaction is   :wtf:

No backup system?  No redundancy?  No cross-connectivity with other systems?

Don't outsource your safety and survival.  YOU are your first responder.

Walmart is removing self-checkouts from 2 stores entirely.

Retailers are beginning to remove self-checkout it minimize theft.

Quote
Walmart is continuing to remove self-checkout machines from its stores in what
it claims is an effort to improve the 'in-store experience' for customers.

In two stores - in Shrewsbury, Missouri, and Cleveland, Ohio - the retailer said it
would replace kiosks with staffed checkout lanes which will 'give our associates
the chance to provide more personalized and efficient service.'

In reality, many stores are ditching self-checkout kiosks because they are especially
vulnerable to theft, an issue which retailers claim in recent years have been plaguing
their businesses and forcing them to shut locations altogether.

'Most of the rollback of self-checkouts is due to retailer concerns over theft,' Neil Saunders,
managing director of GlobalData, told DailyMail.com.

Political Discussion / We really are living in a Banana Republic
« on: April 23, 2024, 10:42:49 PM »
So, I just saw on TimCast IRL the prosecutor in the Stormy Daniels "Hush Money" trial against Trump is claiming that Trump interfered in the 2016 election.

Apparently, asking someone to voluntarily agree to not disclose an affair in exchange for $130K was "election interference", because he was trying to hide something that would be bad for his campaign.

I guarantee you every single Presidential candidate has had some skeleton in their closet hushed up so they could make it through the election without it making the news.

I seem to remember the FBI doing this -- sitting on the Hunter laptop for a year while the election was going on. They claimed it was to avoid "interfering" in the election, However we now are told hiding information that might be bad for a candidate is also interfering.

If that's election interference, I wonder how many times Bill and Hillary did the exact same thing -- or worse (Vince Foster).  In fact, they had someone on Slick Willie's campaign they said was in charge of "Bimbo Eruptions" -- women they knew would come out of the woodwork looking for attention or to do Clinton's campaign harm. 

Quote
Betsey Ross Wright (born July 4, 1943) is an American lobbyist, activist, and
political consultant who worked more than a decade for Bill Clinton in Arkansas.[1][2][3]
She served as chief of staff to Governor Clinton for seven years. As deputy chair
of the 1992 Clinton presidential campaign, Wright established the rapid response
system that was responsible for defending Clinton's record in Arkansas and
promptly answering all personal attacks on the candidate.[4] During the 1992
campaign, Wright coined the term "bimbo eruptions" to describe rumors alleging
extramarital affairs by Clinton.[2] In the 1990s, Wright was an executive for the Wexler
Group, a lobbying firm in Washington, D.C.[1]

Yes, Hillary Was an Enabler

https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/05/yes-hillary-was-an-enabler-213919/

Reading that article, it sounds like there was a WHOLE LOT of "election interfering" going on.

Maybe this is a good thing?  From now on, anyone who has anything bad to say about a Presidential candidate can't be bribed, threatened, shamed or harassed into staying quiet.  In fact, the candidate must admit to all extramarital affairs in writing (with photo and video evidence if available  :rofl:), or else be guilty of keeping important information from the voters -- i.e. interfering in the election.

Off Topic / Squatter arrested for burglary .... FINALLY!!
« on: April 22, 2024, 08:18:44 AM »
The squatter is facing 5 counts:

  • 2nd degree burglary
  • 4th degree grand larceny
  • 4th degree possession of stolen property
  • 2nd degree criminal trespass
  • 4th degree criminal mischief

The squatter says he met a guy at a laundromat who leased him the house.  Really?   :rofl:

He admits he needs to leave, but he needs a couple of months to get out.   :wtf:

In New York, it takes an average of 20 months to evict a squatter.

Immediately, the media and Social Media trolls tried to say he was a MAGA Trump supporter there to protest the trial.

There's more evidence he was a Liberal loon than anything right wing.

Quote
A police official said Friday afternoon that it "appears he did post something about this
event online prior to the incident."

"This extreme act of protest is to draw attention to an urgent and important discovery:
We are victims of a totalitarian con, and our own government (along with many of their
allies) is about to hit us with an apocalyptic fascist world coup," Azzarello wrote in a
manifesto on the Substack page.

There was a confrontation at a Kroger.  A customer unholstered his gun to diffuse an altercation with another customer at the self checkout.

The gun owner did not point the gun at anyone, didn't announce he was going to use it and only drew it to avoid getting assaulted.

In fact, the other customer outright told police that if the man had not been armed, he would have "body slammed him."

Someone else decided to call 911 and reported that a man "pulled a gun on someone".

The store surveillance video backs up the claim that the gun was never brandished or used in any threatening way other than having it in his hand in plain view.

He's been charged with assault with a deadly weapon, even though the statute requires at a minimum the weapon to be pointed at the "victim."

I think the best justification for drawing is that the other man was bigger and likely able to cause harm to him.  If that man was able to get the gun from him, then he'll have lost his means of defense as well as being placed in a much worse situation in which he could be shot.

I don't think he'll be convicted, but this shows why you need to have some sort of firearm/legal defense insurance -- so the system/state doesn't punish you for protecting yourself.
