At least for my state, this is no longer true. New Mexico. It appears that almost the entirety of the reduction in murder rate is reduction in drug transaction related homicide, and domestic violence.

Drug trafficking is now less than 25% of murders.

Who the hell are the 37%?

Cartoon evil people?

Agressively uninformed?

Just stupid?

I don't get it, why so much support?!?

My guess:
1) part of the 6m were racist Ds that would not vote for a black woman, full stop.
2) "mass deportation now" attracted some significant D voters, causing a (?)permanent switch to MAGA.

An error Liberals make is that anti black and anti brown racism are not necessary overlapping sets.

Is that a movie prop? Or just a Photoshop job?

I own a couple M2HB'a, my very educated guess is that the car would tip over unless the gun is fired absolutely dead straightforward. The lever arm on that pedestal mount is ridiculous.

Not a shotgun, AR-15/m16. single shots.

all the more amazing.

In Utah a shooting range that backed up to a 500+ft Cliff. A friend and I tried shooting trap with an M16. I didn't break a single clay even after 100 clays, on full auto. He shot SA and at the end got 15 of 25.

Skill matters.

I need a citation for this. An archbishop spoke against the penitentes in NM, but AFAIK it never rose to the level of papel notice.

Please show me my error.

Extraction of elements, titanium, could be economical. The nice thing about having a hard vacuum, and unfiltered sunlight is that energy is cheap. Direct pyro processing of titanium oxide to titanium metal is technically feasible. Linear Mass drivers for delivery.

Absolute cowardice is the Hallmark of our Congress. It boggles my mind that we 25 plus plus Republican senators haven't called for impeachment.

Do they realize that this failure will condem the Republicans to wander for 40 years in the deserts of political irrelevance.

When they talk about increased dispersion what they're talking about is the complete erosion. The barrels. Long strings like that completely destroy the barrels and require a complete rebuild of the gun.

100% this is being done for social media clicks.

I appreciate a good legal beating, and this judge delivers.

It's a pile driver delivered from the top rope, over and over.

And richly deserved.

The world would be a better place if people would just internalize/ realize that there is no such thing as forgiveness.

Forgiveness is a lie we tell ourselves that we can undo history. What happened, happened. No amount of feel good words will change that history.

Be better, do good, move on.

Miniaturization of electronics post 1962 (operation Fishbowl) means that devices not connected to the grid are essentially immune to nuclear EMP. Sandia National Lab has conducted 100s tests of military and civilian devices and published the results.

Using atomic's for EMP is militarily stupid.

I'm a physicist, and agree with George Herbert's analysis. Coupling of emps is related to the length of the antenna. Long power transmission lines would be impacted, but the mitigation upgrades that have been made over the years to deal with solar flares also harden against EMP.

It's baffling to me that any segment of society would invite this modern day Goebbels to speak, other than at her own trial.

I know nothing of British politics, nor do I care about it's internal pathology.

However, I would love to import some of this literary savagery into our politics. Imagine Hannibal lecter wielding a keyboard, rather than a knife.

Well done.

"Disputes"?

How about contradicts?

How about " proves that they are lying, homicidal criminals".

This is clearly premeditated attempted murder, under color of authority.

Is the death penalty available?

This is fucking stupid. Vinegar? What in the hell gives you the idea that vinegar will do anything other than hurt you in this context?

While boric acid eye wash does exist, you're going to go broke buying it in the multi-liter quantities that you need to wash out tear gas.

Water, just water.

This is peak Ron Swanson: "I wrote myself a permit"

"Administrative" warrants are a lie, they have no legal authority.

Any government official that uses one should be prosecuted criminally for violating civil rights under color of law.

Any reason not to use normal saline vs water?

These are just summaries of unfiltered tip line recordings.

This is a deliberate tactic, put out unfiltered garbage, people get outraged over, and then disprove it when the outrage peaks.

So when the real stuff comes out, it's buried in a sea of garbage.

I haven't given them a dime since 1994, when Wayne LaPierre stood told a group of 6-8 us at the convention, that we were too stupid to know how politics works, and we had to give up our semi-automatic pistols to keep our hunting guns.

And that malignant cancer is still around.

The NRA is a Republican club with a gun hobby.

It is absolutely despised by most informed gun rights supporters.

Hydrolysis H2O at best 90% efficient, less w/ balance of plant. H2 is slippery, it will diffuse through metal, so piping leaks.

Air source Heat pumps move 2-3.5x heat per energy input even at -10c vs < 1x burning H2. Ground source HP can get up to 5x at even lower temperatures.

Simple math

What the heck are the additives to the water supposed to do?

You can extinguish them by rapidly cooling the pyrotectic compound, plain water will do that, but you are at serious risk of substantial injury from a steam explosion if you put a thousand degree canister in a sealed container.

Reality is bad enough, you don't need to make shit up.

Fear-Mongering about colored smoke only adds to the power of fascists.

No, putting them in water will not extinguish them or prevent them from going off.

If one goes off in your hand, you will lose fingers.

Modern " safer" flashbangs have a very high failure rate on the safety aspect. Treat them like the bombs they are.

If you're unfortunate enough to be in the area where flashbangs are being used;

Do not pick up, do not attempt to kick or hit them away with any of your body parts you want to keep, if these devices have been thrown or rolled across mud or snow, they can move violently when they go off.

Legal Jeopardy. Sorry about the typo

Be aware that these are considered NFA registered destructive devices, and the unlicensed possession of them is a quarter million dollar fine in 25 years in jail. Do not pick them up, notwithstanding the safety aspects, you are in serious lethal Jeopardy If found in possession of one.

I was out elk hunting once, and got to watch a family of bobcats play with each other, not more than 30 yards away. They did this for more than half an hour.

It's the longest time I've ever actually managed to see bobcats at less than a quarter mile.
