  1. Sigs got that big-boy military contract money now!
  2. No shit. They dropped charges. I learned a big lesson in a big way and I can say it did scare me straight for most of my time in college.
  3. They are FUN. Friend has one. Fire it outside at night and report back. Big ass fireball out the front of that little thing.
  4. This is horseshit and you know it. It was expressly delivered at the house of the regent to send a message. To rattle him. At the house where his family sleeps. The letter wasn't left in the mailbox. It wasn't mailed anonymously to his office. It wasn't sent via social media from an anonymous account. None of that shit happened. It IS real life, and against the backdrop of other camps leaving fake bodies covered in fake blood on families lawns, it sends the intended message.
  5. Who ordered Chinese? I have a flyer for you....
  6. HEY! They can't do that. Only we can do that!
  7. I know that you get the spend the night in jail in Terrytown if you bash a few from the sunroof of your car with a bat after practice.....two weeks before heading to college.
  8. It's idiotic, juvenile behavior designed to intimidate. Why not drop of your "demands" to the regents office? Why are you wearing a full head covering to obscure your face, probably assuming they have a door camera? Why do it in the middle of the night vs earlier, or during the day? If it HAS to be his house, why not a sealed envelope in the mailbox? This was designed to elicit and emotional response from the recipient. "We know where you live".
  9. It wasn't (nor was the regent claiming) a home invasion. It wasn't really trespassing either. It was a thinly veiled threat as stated that we know where you live. This is the scene in the movie when the mobsters come into the store and tell the owner "nice place, be a shame if something happened to it"
  10. I'd still rather have an M249, which this replaced. I know they tested the hell out of this, but what was the reasoning to go away from a belt-fed, high capacity option to what is essentially a service rifle with a fancy scope on it? The corps going full circle back to the Soviet SVD rifle school of thought? More accurate suppressing fire? I read that the M27 is a piston operated system, meaning gases and residue are ejected out of the operating system, so it in theory can sustain fire for much longer than a standard M4.....so just give everyone M27's?
  11. Fucking this. That anyone could even attempt to defend this has a broken, partisan brain.
  12. This seem to be more about hiding behind tenure. Something neither a judge nor CEO has. Is the case against her still ongoing?
  13. Maybe compare someone in the private sector that is as high profile as a judge - such as a CEO or small biz owner. If vocal, both will suffer the backlash.
  14. I think it means what it's always meant. You can say what you want, but there are consequences. Even as a state employee, funding sources will always vary, but you are still operating under the umbrella of a state institution.
  15. This. Is this even a question?
  16. Spent a few weeks in the UK so as usual on most every other thread, I don't know shit. I did have a damn fine fish/chips at a cafeteria from one of the boys academies we visited. In London, I did have the best veal Bolognese I've ever had, but that was not a native dish. All the breakfast dishes were crap. Fuck your baked beans. A good Shepherds pie is hard to beat and of course beef wellington is decent when done properly. It might be the only steak I had that wasn't overcooked. Indian dishes slammed hard, but again, not native.
  17. There's someone, somewhere, with a mullet and a trailer-adjacent proximity saying to himself, I can make that shit fit in my leased Dodge TRX
  18. Follow a few recent/younger GWOT vets on IG. Last year or two some of those salty old WWII dogs have done static line, tandem jumps over Normandy with recent vets. Jumped out of C-47's and everything apparently
  19. “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.”
