Thanx! Here on the mountain top in Sussex county I get all the Philly stations. So I'll set the DVR to grab it. Don't watch the Philly news as a rule.

Original TFOs on a 19, 21 and 22... yes.

You may want to review Judge Napolitano's opinion on this. I thought his most interesting point is that the government has received a search warrant for something that does not yet exist!

Didn't know they had hot dogs. I may have to try one out.

Neither. Although I do have a ghost account on FB if I must get on to see something from someone/something else.

Just ask David Gregory. Laws are for little people.

An excellent point, which is one Massad Ayoob notes in his approach to after-shooting interaction with the police. I think put generically the strategy would be state any relevant facts, but don't offer any opinions or reasoning. Example: 1. I am the victim. I will sign a complaint. 2. The person on the floor is the assailant. 3. The knife he was holding is under my couch. (Or any other similar statement of hard evidence, including any witnesses you may know of.) 4. He broke through the door to my house, as you can see. 5. You will have my full cooperation, but I now exercise my 5th amendment right to remain silent and I will not answer any further questions until I have consulted with my attorney. 6. Repeat number 5 as often as necessary. I would not recount how things went down, what I was thinking, how I felt etc. as those are the major items open for misinterpretation. What you actually say will be one thing; what is voiced in court (as in recollected by police officers) might be quite different. If I ever have to shoot someone in self defense I fully expect to be arrested and not to be able to talk myself out of that.

Ah Ha! A horse of a different color! I tend to agree with you. That's why I asked my question about crime. By the way, if the government says 'you need to give up your privacy so we can protect you', does that in any way resemble 'you need to give up your firearms so we can protect you'?

As long as there are 'dumb' customers, there will be 'dumb' phones. LG Tracfone does voice, text, email, pix etc. but no apps. Average $6/month cost. The price of ignorance. Of course the government is not the main reason I don't load my life into a smart phone or run all the apps. It's just that today's smart phone is the hackers' target of choice, and harder to protect. And I don't like being reachable all the time anyway. Or need to be.

Just out of curiosity, what do you suppose they might find on that phone that they don't have already? They already have all their computers, the content of the house and vehicles, the first-level witness who bought them firearms, names of family and friends, and through the Verizon records the numbers and names of every voice, text and email message they sent from that phone. Not to mention whatever is archived in Utah that we don't know about. And by the way, the crime is over and done and they're both dead. I don't think it's at all clear that what they might expect to find would rise to the level of national security necessary to warrant defeating iPhone encryption. If we're talking about potential threats, the U.S. government has more potential to be threatening to more U.S. citizens than home grown terrorists will ever have. Although I would like to know why Apple is holding the line on this phone. Apparently they have arranged access to some 70 other iPhones in previous criminal incidents. One thing I have reaffirmed: why I don't have a smart phone!

For those of you interested in 'cracking', Google 'one time pad'. It's not relevant to Apple, but someone who REALLY wants to cover what they're doing can do it. Relevant to Apple and the iPhone, is this. In other words, don't hold your breath.

Yes it does. We're waiting on our 15 year old cat right now. Watching and waiting sucks too.

Well, regardless of the weapon-of-choice, you gotta love these SAS guys. Their response to the Iranian embassy seizure in London and SCUD hunting in the western Iraq desert during Gulf 1 was artful. Now their insertion into ISIS' back yard will spook them the way we spooked the Toyota truck guys in Somalia. Hail Britannia. (Or what's left of it.)

This is rich. An ISIS instructor was teaching erstwhile recruits in the desert how to behead people. Unfortunately, in the middle of his lecture, his head was blown off by a Dan .338 sniper rifle in the hands of an Special Air Service warrior. I wonder if the ISIS academy gives tuition refunds?

Yes that's one piece of his advice I wouldn't take. And he didn't account for those who carry revolvers.

Here is an article on the major topics to consider if you are going to carry a firearm. I realize 99% of the NJ residents on the forum have no chance of a NJ permit. But others have out-of-state permits, or have firearms in the house for self defense. In either case the article's information is worth reading. It's a long one, because exceptions to general rules and examples are included. The article is Arizona specific, but the general points, especially about interacting with police after a shooting, are relevant anywhere. You may not agree with every specific suggestion, but I thought his overall strategy was good and in line with many other authors I've read on this topic. One thing I learned from the author is that in spite of being very firearm friendly, AZ will give you a mandatory jail sentence for misuse of a firearm, even on a first offense. The author is also on YouTube with videos that repeat some of the points in this article. I guess my main reason for seeking out this kind of information is to think ahead and have my strategies thought out before any SHTF.

Hey Silverado... nice tile work. The arch is a real nice touch too. Good job.

January 16, 2018 is the target date.

OK Honey. Despite how we’ve laughed at their ‘Size matters!’ and ‘How big is it?’ commercial, and mocked and derided it as a Valentine’s day present, I’ve changed my mind. I will get you that Big Hunk Of Love Bear. (Bear through the commercial and watch the video.) Now I know what you’ll do with it. Your Husband

But this time around the Martians will be felled by the Zika virus.

If this is true, it's a great example of why you don't volunteer information to the police not relevant to the issue at hand; namely, why he was stopped. In my case it would have been: Q1: Where are you coming from? A: Pennsylvania. Q2: Where are you going? A: Home. Q3: What have you been doing? (Or insert any question #3 you care to dream up; at this point we know we're fishing.) A: Officer, are you detaining me or am I free to go?

Really? I've never heard it mentioned or referenced anywhere. Oh well, it's a big Internet.

I just read that Hickok45 is putting all his stuff up on this site, as well as YouTube (if they don't cancel his account again). I haven't heard any references to this site before. Check it out. http://full30.com

Yes, and yes.
