Um I guess this is what the American people needed to see?

Watching RNC Convention and Trump is walking in to intro "It's a mans world". Word is 50 Cent gave permission to let him use "Merry Men" for his speech intro tomorrow.

I can not believe the meltdown the dems have brought to their own house. Its a self inflicted wound. All they have to do is beat a convicted felon with a public manifesto but here we are.

I figured you would get a kick out of the (No horse pun intended) NASA tie in!

I am pretty sure you dropped the Vagina post. But if you keep wanting to be the center of attention I can't stop you.

Bad timing as it seems the RW is very unified at the moment.

Nah, just your unblemished record of degrading women.

84 is set to be enshrined into the MTS HOF. We are just looking for a budget friendly chopper to send Bert in to deliver the news.

You have already told us of your distain for the military, old stale story.

Negative. I know you get kicks on body shaming women (we have gone over this if you remember). So I will put in terms you like to see Sourdough Sally might not be a great fit when it comes to reacting to an active shooter scenario. They are plenty of men who fit this narrative as well. It just so happen to occur to Sally on live TV for the whole world to see.

I am being told by my gov't that one of these roofs were too dangerous to post a sniper on and the other was fine. I can't rationalize that.

The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That's an exceedingly odd number. Why was that gauge used? Well, because that's the way they built them in England, and English engineers designed the first US railroads. Why did the English build them like that? Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the wagon tramways, and that's the gauge they used. So, why did 'they' use that gauge then? Because the people who built the tramways used the same jigs and tools that they had used for building wagons, which used that same wheel spacing. Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheel spacing? Well, if they tried to use any other spacing, the wagon wheels would break more often on some of the old, long distance roads in England. You see, that's the spacing of the wheel ruts. So who built those old rutted roads? Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in Europe (including England) for their legions. Those roads have been used ever since. And what about the ruts in the roads? Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts, which everyone else had to match or run the risk of destroying their wagon wheels. Since the chariots were made for Imperial Rome, they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing. Therefore, the United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches is derived from the original specifications for an Imperial Roman war chariot. Bureaucracies live forever. So the next time you are handed a specification/procedure/process and wonder 'What horse's ass came up with this?', you may be exactly right. Imperial Roman army chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of two war horses. (Two horses' asses.) Now, the twist to the story: When you see a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah. The engineers who designed the SRBs would have preferred to make them a bit fatter, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from the factory to the launch site. The railroad line from the factory happens to run through a tunnel in the mountains, and the SRBs had to fit through that tunnel. The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track, as you now know, is about as wide as two horses' behinds. So, a major Space Shuttle design feature, of what is arguably the world's most advanced transportation system, was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse's ass. And you thought being a horse's ass wasn't important? Ancient horse's asses control almost everything.

Exactly, SS has control of perimeter. The building was 160 yards away and outside the established perimeter. I am not a great shot but I even qualfied Marksman (23/40) in cluster at 200 yards. This kid landed 3 rounds in the 10 inch cluster while being harrassed by local fuzz. Imagine the range of a trained sniper. Chealte needs to be fired.

You know what they never will reverse it? Being 18 to kill for your country. Why? you answered it above. You can't create a brain to rationalize killing to a thirty year old who just joined the military. They need to be young with a brain that can be molded into being a killer. No one cares about the veteran living on the streets 20 years later when they could never turn it off.

Though I agree with the premise of not allowing younger adults to purchase guns. We ask our young folks to join the military and kill our enemies with them at that age. We could always lobby for laws to put stricter standards getting a fire arm at that age. Amendment 26 put that to bed though I think.

This is a top down issue. I mean if this was the answer for not manning a roof of the ONLY spot a shooter would have 100% visibilty and high ground of target??? Lets not forget he also brought a ladder to gain access to the impervial roof. She might need to ask for her job back at Pepsico and "checks notes" Her role there was developing risk managment risk mitigation plans.

She attempted to holster her weapon 3-4 times and finally gave up. That part was my point. The moment got too big for her. That should have been picked up during her vetting process but mistake get made.

When some people, men or women get put into high pressure scenarios they freeze up. This lady here did just that. Not saying she is there due to DEI but to get this level assignment I do question some things.

We are really supposed to believe that with added security someone got within 160 yards and not be detected? Does that seem like a rational conclusion?

I was at this one to. It was exciting and fairly fast moving. I tried to watch it all the way through last night but went to bed. A couple of guys I work with said they did the same thing.

Trump did show up with an all male SS detail last night.

Yep, these conspiracy theories used to be just a RW thing but now the left enjoy them to. This whole situation was caused by the Secret Service and their failure to do the job.

The have managed to take all the excitement away from the home run derby. It is slooow and boring.

I know everyone here hates everything right but his book Hillbilly Elegy is a great read.

Proly had it coming. Shrug.....
