    TSA notice given to me about a Civil Penalty

    So in order for you to decide whether I'm "ok" you get to disregard: The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or...

    TSA notice given to me about a Civil Penalty

    Exactly wrong. Life is dangerous. Always has been, always will be. Should we dictate that jumping off a more than 4 foot "drop" might cause injury, and thus is illegal? or worse yet that knives can cut things, so everyone must give up their knives because we need to "mitigate that danger". I...

    Police Gain Access to Home Security Cameras

    355sigfan - you seem like the kind of guy everyone would like to just hang out with and maybe barbecue some steaks. Or not. I wish you the best either way. Hopefully they pay you well to do whatever it is that you do for a living.

    TSA notice given to me about a Civil Penalty

    I agree with LRI - specifically to the OP's issue - 15 seconds and done: TSA "agent" "I'm sorry miss, you can't bring this on the plane. You have to go back to the check in desk and have them check this for you. Thanks, have a nice day." Wife "Oh crap I didn't realize that was in there. Sure...

    Police Gain Access to Home Security Cameras

    Cops have no right to take anything from anybody until they are convicted of a crime. Cheap excuse - it's ok because most of the time we think the person is guilty of something. PROVE IT in a court of law. Until then you are stealing. no ifs ands or buts. You are a crook. Funding - deal with...

    California- Judge requires Lowes to go Full Retard

    totally ridiculous on both sides. a 2x4 is a 1.5x3.5 - has been my whole life. I have a table saw - oddly enough, the blade is 1/8th" thick. So if I cut something, I lose .125" (or for californians one eighth of one inch). Weird how that works. Yes, a two inch by four inch piece of lumber...

    Sons of Guns Will Hayden arrested on molestation charges

    If he is innocent, which I doubt, but hope for, I hope he is exonerated. If he is guilty, he should be flayed on live TV for all to see. 4 horses, 4 ropes, and 4 slaps on the horse's ass. Maybe make some people think.

    155gr 308 out of a 20'' barrel w/1:10 twist?

    I've shot both the Hornady 155 amax and the 2156 match king palmas. Both shot great in my aac-sd. It depends on what you're trying to do - small groups at 100, 1000yd steel, whitetail at 250 etc...

    Panera Bread requests its customers be unarmed

    "the right of the common man to own light arms" Actually, at that time, you could own cannons, and in fact many did. In fact, individuals owned battleships with many cannons. The right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed I'm not sure there is a weight limit in there...

    Winchester Brass Plant?

    I'm sure many of the reloading components we are all missing have been going to filling backorders of manufactured ammo. Once the shelves are full again with boxed ammo, the individual components will start coming back. The good news is my local Sportsmans Warehouse now has their ammo shelves...

    Somebody was stoned out of their mind and dropped the stuff in Silver Cliff, CO... Close enough.

    Chasing Load w/ New Varget Lot?

    2744 / 2714 = 1.01. for a quick test, bump the charge weight up 1%, load 5, and test velocity vs old lot. Probably gtg.

    Common core debate team...

    Honestly - don't blame them. They were told by somebody that they were doing a great job, and somehow made it to the finals. Someone should have told them to speak english, use factual arguments to support their thesis, and present those facts in a cohesive, logical manner, refuting their...
