Did not increase SS but did increase the income tax personal exemption for seniors by $4000.

Re: 2025 TX Legislative Session




I just perused what the 89th Texas legislative has "passed" so far. Only two gun related bills. One named the cannon as the official gun of Texas. The other allows uniformed appointed school Marshalls to carry a firearm in the school. In these last days they have spent time passing such ...

Re: Joe Xiden AKA Brandon- diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer

Lots of interviews with specialists saying this was probably developing for many years and should have been caught. Even a decade or so ago PSA should have indicated a problem. And lots of interviews explaining how it could be missed.

And then there's this. Hormonal treatment for cancer can cause ...

Re: NRAAM 2025

The feeling among the volunteers I talked with was the exhibit hall was a bit smaller this year. They didn't take up the whole hall. Most of the usual big guys were there and all the usual small guys (i..e.; Texas Trophy Hunters, Ohio Gun Collectors, CKRT knives) but not as many of the rotating ...

Re: Legit 30.07 sign?


I call bull on this one.

It appears to be photoshopped to my amateur old eyes on a small iPhone screen.

Zoom into the 30.07 sign and put the letters across the bottom of the screen. You will see they at an oblique angle.

Do the same with the door sign. They line up perfectly, and are ...

Re: Legit 30.07 sign?

Not sure what counts as 'legal notice' in Ga, so it may or may not count there.


Since I've encountered two small diners with a sheet of paper taped to the door upon ...

NRAAM 2025

It's amazing what goes into getting the floor ready. They start Wednesday and go continously until Friday at 9. Looking at the floor Thursday night you'd swear there was no way they'd finish in time.

Re: Anti-gun Dem appointed??

The picture is from a Phelan appointment in 2023. Current chairman is Bryan Hughes.

But yes, he has been appointed speaker pro tempore.
