More Police Radio Communications Will Be Encrypted

I am sort of a fence-sitter on this subject. For security, safety and privacy reasons there is a need for encryption. However, I fear that there will be a loss of transparency with some departments and some bad actors will say and do some bad things with encrypted communications to hide their misdeeds.

Like I said, I'm on the fence about this but one needs to be careful for what they wish for. Does anyone remember the Patriot Act and FISA?

When you are watching the videos and reading the articles, keep in mind that it is illegal to encrypt HAM, GMRS and FRS radio communications.

Although some proposals have called for media access to audio files after the fact, that could take a very long time and with communications heavily redacted to the point that there is absolutely no transparency. And if media access were permitted some proposals call for legal agreements that media would have to sign that exposes them to all sort of legal minefields.






This is NPR so take it for what it's worth but some interesting points are raised in the radio broadcast embedded in the article.

Feedback Reporting a member "LTCSZ"

Be on the lookout... LTCSZ is a scammer. The below member replied to a WTB ad I placed. He had pictures of the item I was looking for. ( I found the exact photos on a previous ad. ) He even tried to photoshop a piece of paper with the date on it.. He/She then tried to to have me call him and then wound never answer. He even suggested I send half the payment and could pay the rest when the item was received.

I reviewed his profile and he hasn't posted anything until recently (His previous messages were from 2011)

Here's the number used (725) 326-5180 Would not call me after I requested and supplied my number.

We finally did it!

After a looong, extremely stressfull ordeal, we finally escaped the communist peoples' republic of Illinois for the freer state of Tennessee.

After three 26' U-haul and two 20' trailer loads, plus two overflowing 20 yard dumpsters, and much help from some incredible new neighbors, I'm no longer a criminal for exercising a constitutional right.

Anyway, here's the new backyard:

20240801_172950.jpg


I recall seeing a thread about movers a while back. My advice, sell or pitch EVERYTHING (exceptions apply, of course) and buy new stuff. We moved ourselves and saved money. We had a 3500 sqft house and a 1200 sqft shop, chickens and rabbits. Total cost to move was ~ $5-8k, Didn't keep track, and more physical labor than I could possibly have imagined. Totally worth it in the end.

Kamala Harris Promises Amnesty for Millions of Illegal Aliens, Nationwide Mail-In Voting.


Vice President Kamala Harris is vowing to sign legislation as president that would have millions of illegal aliens eventually securing naturalized American citizenship and imposing nationwide no-excuse mail-in voting.
During a rally in Glendale, Arizona, Harris said she would back amnesty for the nation’s 11 to 22 million illegal aliens through so-called “comprehensive reform.”
“We know our immigration system is broken and we know what it takes to fix it: comprehensive reform. That includes strong border security and an earned pathway to citizenship,” Harris said.


Such an amnesty would immediately fill the United States workforce with millions of newly legalized foreign workers against whom working and middle class Americans would have to compete.

Already, on President Joe Biden and Harris’s watch, American jobs have been filled with millions of newly arrived foreign workers while millions of native-born Americans have fallen out of the workforce.
“What that essentially means is that all of the job growth we have seen [under Biden and Harris] has been going to foreign-born workers — a category…which the Bureau of Labor Statistics admits includes illegal aliens,” Heritage Foundation economist E.J. Antoni has told Breitbart News.
Also during her speech, Harris said she would “finally pass” the Freedom to Vote Act to, among other things, enact nationwide no-excuse mail-in voting. The legislation would ensure that registrants could use drop boxes to turn in mail-in ballots.
Similarly, the legislation would automatically register voters unless they opt out. Specifically, states that already have automatic voter registration typically register voters through Departments of Motor Vehicle (DMV) offices.

New Barrel - Brux

Hello,
New here. Just received my first semi-custom precision bolt gun.
It's an Alamo Precision in 6.5 PRC with a 1-8 Brux, hvy varmint 26"
Cycled with a caliber correct jag going: rem oil, dry x2, hoppe 9, dry x3, (about 3 times), then two cycles with a cal correct nylon brush dipped in hoppe 9, followed by multiple dry patches. No brass at all push through bore, nor scrubbing back and forth - only pushed from receiver out, not pulled back through.

I've had plenty of new out of the box typical bolt guns, but this one has more blue residue (I presume copper) than I've ever seen from the first cleaning. Will be shooting it tomorrow for the first time.
Curious for thoughts, it seems like more than a few test rounds through it? Definitely not accusing that I got a used barrel, but couldn't find anything here or elsewhere, particularly for "high" quality barrels typically coming like this.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or recommendations.

Former Youtube censorship CEO Susan Wojcicki dead at age 56 from (possible) C19 vax induced cancer.

Former Youtube CEO Susan Wojcicki, who had been responsible for setting in place the site's ultra-left leaning algorithm, AI shadowban apparatus, and a massive COVID-19 vaccine side effect coverup and silencing of experts who argued against the detrimental effects of the mRNA shots, had passed of aggressive non-small cell lung cancer at the age of 56.

She is not a smoker, but it is certain that she had taken the vaccine and boosters herself. The cancer had struck the previously extremely healthy fitness and meditation junkie suddenly in 2022, at a timing which makes it VERY correlated to the now known effects of the vaccine. She had also lost her 19 year old son Marco Troper to a drug overdose in the February of this year.

Angle finder?

How do you find your inclination when calculating range? I have been looking for something simple that can be mounted to the scope or rifle but either coming up empty or getting results for things that seem wildly over priced for what they are ($200+), so far the best option I have found is also the clunkiest, an app on my phone that measures the angle the phone is at, basically I would have to lay the phone sideways along the barrel like a carpenters level and then take note of the angle.

It seems like there should be a simple low tech and low cost solution, that is not so clunky and cumbersome. What do you do?

I did see one option, a ball level thing that attaches to the scope but the only place I found one affordable only carries it in 30mm, everywhere else has it for $200+.

Forster dies, how much to hone out?

Hey all,

I'm a fairly new reloader. I want to buy forster dies since they offer the honing for their dies, for an additional price of course.

I tried calling 3 times already to see if I could speak to someone who could help me determine how much would be best. Every time no one is available so the lady takes my name and number so someone can reach back out soon. They never ever call back. It's been over 3 weeks since the first time I called.

So can anybody give me some guidance? How much does their expander ball open the neck ID out to? And after measuring one of my loaded rounds for neck OD, what should be a good spec to use for the honing? I figured if someone wants to help me here, I can just place my order online without having to go through their people.


I figured if their expander ball is 1.5 thousands below bullet OD, I should use my loaded neck OD - the 1.5 - another 1 or 1.5 thou???

Or...
Is it even worth it going with their dies given their lack of CS? Can anybody recommend something that's just as good for the money?

The set I'm looking at is below.


Thanks,

Serg

UK Police Commissioner wants round 3 with US Citizenry

UK police commissioner Sir Mark Rowley thinks he's coming to get US citizens for their online posts. The conservative US citizens invite you to come get some sir! We can give you a much better welcome than our ancestors! 100% of US military aid that goes to defend the UK and maybe the EU needs to be stopped until they clarify!
Corrected to round 3 as I was reminded of 1812.
