I don't think the insects can get to mine as long as I keep up with the water trap in the middle. Squirrels haven't messed with them, too many black walnuts around me for them to notice them I guess.

I would look for a list that includes some of the IFAK components, but supplement them with stuff you will use more often. The pic below shows the basic contents, but I add small squares 1"x1", out of the quikclot, some bandaids, med scissors, tincture of iodine, a tube of single use medical superglue (can use regular superglue in a pinch) and steristrips.

That was why in many military units the kit is always standardized, so any member can find and use whatever is required without having to even worry if it's your kit or not.

I prefer the CAT style because it seems to be able to put more pressure on the limb, to stop bleeding faster. Of course it's the style they issued us and that I am more familiar with, but even some the improvised styles have a stick of some sort to apply the pressure. I sold a bunch on here from some medical lots I got some time back, still have a few that I place in a bunch of places to have one available if needed.

Ha, I'd be in death valley if that was even partly true.

I can see that, but I also feel that a woman (not child, I'll explain) needs to report such occurrences immediately so something like the morning after pill can be given. As to children, they should be educated to inform their parents, teachers or other authority figures as soon as possible so the same option can be given. Any adult with knowledge of these occurrences that does not report it needs to be held liable for it. After a certain period (need science/medical to weigh in on this), I believe the child gains rights, and unless it threatens the life of the mother, it should be allowed to be born. It's harsh to "force" someone to have a child, but we must protect those that can't do it for themselves. Any state or jurisdiction that has a law in which you can be charged for two murders when killing a pregnant woman needs to ban abortions as well, with the proper exceptions such as the Rape, Incest and endangering the mother with the above stipulations.

We got about 3-4 minutes of rain, and it wasn't very hard either.

Yea well, there are those that think the earth is flat so...

I believe the 2nd is written well enough to defend it's meaning at every turn. Abortion rights argument, as seen during Rowe v Wade were very hard to agree with constitutionally, at least in the manner for which the decision was written. Who knows, maybe down the road a case will reach SCOTUS and a more constitutionally correct argument can be made to support it again. The same for the GCA, the argument was very bad for the pro side, so we lost, if a much better argument can be presented in a future case, maybe we can get rid of that too, but until then, it is the law of the land and expect them to enforce it.

That isn't quite the same, I am ok with a state telling the feds to pound sand within their borders, but having a legislative body in your state being selective on what state law they will enforce, for political reasons, should be a giant red flag to all of us. If TN were to pass a law I could not live with, I would fight to get it changed, or move. I don't like sanctuary cities/states for illegal immigrants, but feel the same way about those, for those who undoubtedly will accuse me of only supporting conservative laws.

Not in my eyes, there is a difference between protecting the Constitution and protecting criminal actions. More like illegal immigrant sanctuary states.

It may be in the works, SCOTUS seems to be signaling such cases may be looked at now. Supreme Court says several gun cases deserve a new look (yahoo.com)

That makes sense, I figured there was a reason they were saying that. I am surprised the mayor wasn't laying blame on the other town, like they always seem to do instead of acknowledging that the lack of laws isn't the problem.

That is where you and I differ, first we shouldn't have to SBR anything, as it is no more lethal than a rifle, maybe even less so. But I would say that someone who puts a brace on a pistol has done just about as much work as someone who goes the SBR route. They both understand the law, both want to stay legal, and both have, probably, passed a few background checks. It's just that the brace guy didn't feel like the government is due $200 and all those weeks or months of waiting to legally own a weapon which the constitution clearly says he should be able to own.

I am interested on why an arm brace would have been a factor on your thinking, it makes no tactical or technical difference between a pistol with a brace and an SBR which have been available for decades. Not to belabor the point, but and individual hell bent on killing someone, or many someones, would not care of the legality of one vs another, and would, if they knew anything about ARs, opt for just using an illegal SBR vs a brace. To kind of keep on subject; anyone know what type of rifle he used? I read that it was purchased/acquired legally, but they have an "assault" weapons ban in place. I also seen where someone called it AR like, so what could be a legal Ar style rifle that would be legal there?

I would argue that you'd have to be a wack job to join some of these leftist, or far right for that matter, organizations.

Seems like he had ANTIFA connections.

Being that that department answers to SCOTUS, I highly doubt they would refuse at the risk of their jobs, and their own freedom.

I am sure it is archived, like on the wayback machine, and probably by many bad actors as soon as it was released.

Looks like someone pulled the plug.

No, the judge issues a ruling of contempt then issues an arrest warrant which the, in this case the Supreme Court Police, make the arrest.

You're right, but I was speaking of today's ruling.
