Cornyn is a classic, classic, classic "good ol' boy network" politician. Even Hollywood couldn't create a better one.

Re: Can the USPS get any worse?

For us, it's not just the USPS in general, but the doofuses they hire to handle mail. Our local mail carrier looks like some hillbilly from the backwoods, and is constantly messing up people's mail (we have one of those community mailboxes): putting mail in the wrong box, putting parcels in the wron...

Yeah, and to add push to sending more billions to Ukraine to pay all those pensions Zelensky blew on his ego trip.

Re: More School Guardians?

I'm just a cranky old guy, emphasis on cranky. There should be a specific "super-license" for LTC. It should require higher proficiency demonstrations and additional classroom training. It should be available to any LTC holder that chooses to obtain it. With said license holders should be...

Re: More School Guardians?

An "armed officer" is going to be worthless in most school shooting situations. A shooter goes into a classroom and starts going "bang-bang-bang-bang..." With each "bang," a child dies. Even if you have a freaking Navy SEAL on duty, how many "bangs" will there...

Re: In Michelle Obama’s first term as President

My wife came up with an interesting scenario the other day: - Trump gets kicked out of the election, buried alive in a legal avalanche. So Nikki Haley gets the R nomination. - Biden finally goes over the cognitive cliff and withdraws from the election. Michelle Obama gets the D nomination. And so......

Re: Texas Rebellion?

The major factor in Texas ever seceding from the US is the fact that virtually everything that happens in Texas is controlled by the four big liberal Democrat population centers: Austin, San antonio, DFW and Houston. These four big liberal cesspools will always have a death grip on state events, reg...

Re: Do Springs Take a Set if the Striker is pre-cocked/the hammer cocked?

I had an AR that sat in the gun case for about 4 years with a round in the chamber, cocked and locked. When I was shooting it later, I started getting misfires. Tried with different makes of ammo, same issue. It wasn't hitting the primer hard enough. I put in a Wolf Extra Power hammer spring. Proble...

Re: WLP Resigning, Effective 31-JAN-2024

It's good that he's gone. WLP basically wore out his welcome and was a liability to the NRA. No matter what he said or did, he was little more than a cartoon caricature to the public, with utterly zero credibility. The "elephant hunt" video on YouTube didn't help, either. That was so ridic...

Re: Bill Clinton: I’m back

The CGI Ukraine Action Network is the result of a collaboration between Hillary Clinton and Olena Zelenska, first lady of Ukraine, Arrrgghhh, just more grift. Zelenska doesn't give a flip about Ukraine, she's too busy going shopping with Kate Middleton. Keeps her busy so her billionaire husband can...

Re: FL: Husband shoots robber inside house beating his wife.

Holy crap. This is a good example of the kind of lunatics running around loose out there. This guy smashes a front door window with a rock at 3 a.m. and starts beating up this guy's wife, gets shot in the shoulder and takes off running..... straight to another house and attempts to break in there, t...

Re: Deputy Shot - Return 12 Rounds of Fire

If you feel he is still a threat and is running toward others, etc, then you have the legal justification to use force, including deadly force, to stop him You would have to be very, very, very, very careful, because you'd have to convince a jury that such was the case. I can see, for example, shoo...
