A couple of years before I retired, we had 3 suicides, and 2 attempts in 9 months. This in a facility of less than 200 officers. We all had to attend "classes", what a bleeping joke, the institution just covering its ***. The Admin. claimed we had the highest % of any dept. in the country...

I was on a passenger plane that they tried to land on a runway with another passenger plane taking off. That was interesting for a moment or two. "Wonder why we just increasing speed, are going back up and banking to the right?" That was long before anyone heard of Trump, Musk, or DEI...

Does anyone know of Hillary Clintons whereabouts for the dates in question? ;) :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Six weeks sounds like an incredibly short time. I suspect that something else is going on here, but that doesn't mean nefarious. Over worked under paid...

I think you kidding yourself. The hard left will die, cold, hungry, alone, fearful, in the most socialist regime imaginal holding their copy of Das Kapital, knowing they were right.

Hang him!

The 1945 The McCarran-Ferguson Act. makes Insurance companies all but exempt from anti-trust laws. Gee Thanks. In the grand scheme of things insurance co. fall somewhere above politicians and below whale poo.

I do. At 3 AM It's more likely than not the Idiot son has gotten himself stuck, off the road, or jammed up in some way or another, maybe one of the grandkids needs me. Doesn't happen because at 3 AM they know they get to face one really grumpy sob and I'm going out of my way to let everyone...

Lights and optics on a EDC gun, EH. You do whatever make you feel comfortable and works for you. No need to justify it. Just please, don't give me a ration of "you're not serious", "you're not prepared" or "you're going to die in XYZ fantasy scenario" because I'm not marching in lock step. I'm...

I'm of two minds about this. We are supposed to be part of a unit not taking advantage of each other, then maybe that's why after six years the only thing I had to show for my time was an old beat-up chopped Sportster and leather vest a stripper bought for me. Enlisted to enlisted okay I...

It always amazed me the number of smokers who always ran out. Also the number that would ask bum a smoke and then refuse when you offered them a Camel short. One of the reasons I'm a pipe smoker. After the first week or two cigarettes are stove all to dog snot, not much you can do to a pouch...

EDC that I use every day, pocketknife, pipe, Zippo, tobacco pouch, reading glasses. Extra crap, gun, watch, wallet. When I'm let out alone someone always makes me take a bleeping phone. (ya I know because they care and worry, but how in the hell did I ever manage to survive before without...

Yes! So are revolvers, Glocks, 1911s, .22, .25, .32, Carbon steel knives, lever action rifles, pump shotguns, and most of all writers who can think of anything else to write about, so they put out yet another "Is X Irrelevant". :rolleyes: No, I didn't read it, I got other things to do like...

"His bond was set at $10,000 cash during a hearing yesterday, and the court ordered the man be placed on GPS monitoring, undergo drug and alcohol testing and a mental health evaluation," :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored...

"if my state succeeds in banning guns (and it look's like they will too), i will still keep mine, and take my chances in court." (y) Non Oboediam! Tyranny of Gov. not only come from its actions, but also from inaction through unwillingness or inability. “With a few exemplary executions, he...

Hindsight being 20/20, although I said so back then, maybe Tim Cook, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Et-Al shouldn't have or shouldn't have been allowed to turn over our tec. to the CCCP for the privilege of access to their market and slave labor to make their products 30+ years ago. Not to get too...

No such thing as good enough. You got to train like seal team six is going to call any minute and ask YOU for a helping hand :rolleyes:;). Not putting down training but I strongly suspect that if it stopped being fun and the trainee couldn't brag about being given special lessons with national...

SOBing, old people were right. "you'll pay for that when get old". "Ayha" and keep right on doing what I was doing. Ya just can't tell some people nutin. Knee hurts whenever the weather changes from one or another motorcycle accidents, arm won't straighten from being thrown from a horse...

Not EDC but I still spend enough time in the woods, that it's running a close second. 45+ years with the Single Six, hunting, fishing, berry picking, wood cutting, snowshoeing, and general loafing around. Sorry no pictures, but it's in better shape than I am.
