I remember the LAW rocket range at Ft Benning. We had the sub-caliber LAW rocket. It fired, what looked like, a big bottle rocket
Had a cut out tank shape moving in the distance. I saw more of the projectiles stuck in trees and on the ground and flying way up in the air than ever came close to the "tank" LOL |

I heard this on the local AM radio news station (1010 wins). It was a "breaking news" story where they actually interrupt the normal 22 minute sequence that never varies unless SHTF.

It's easy to laugh at the stupidity, but while we chuckle at their ignorance, they are making law and breeding more of their ilk. The country has already proven itself to be 51% short-bus-worthy, and it gets worse with each passing day.
It's a sad and frightening state of affairs.

When i was in the 4th grade in the 60's we moved to Germany to be with my Dad when he was stationed there.
When we got there one of the welcome present he gave to me was a couple of these. Sadly they got sold at a garage sale in the mid 70's.....
Growing up an Army brat was a lot of fun!!! The attitudes of a lot of folks today convinces me more and more what a nation wimps we have become.........

First NY is a big place (look at a map) if you look at the last election upstate would have voted in Astorino. Downstate is NYC area and is populated by many liberals. They won due to their numbers.
Second you should not sit there and say well it's their own faults they voted him in and why don't you just move. Trust me for many people with families it's not that easy. Even ones without. Third we are on the front line of this shit. Anyone not supporting our cause is not supporting their own. If we let this continue it will spread to the rest of you. |

Yes I know, I was just thinking about that post of mine while I was out running errands just now, I think it captures a certain 'mindset' though and I work for mostly New Yorkers, even the few Republicans amongst them are not progun. I think there could be something in the water down there.

First NY is a big place (look at a map) if you look at the last election upstate would have voted in Astorino. Downstate is NYC area and is populated by many liberals. They won due to their numbers. They won due to record low voter turnout. New York voters shattered a record in Tuesday’s elections — but no one’s going to be bragging about it.
This record is for the lowest turnout in a New York gubernatorial election in the modern era. Only 3.7 million people bothered to go to the polls — the fewest since the state Board of Elections began keeping precise tallies in the 1970s. |
