So, help me understand here. Does this mean the SCOTUS wouldn't even consider the case, and just punted it back to the 5th Circuit? ......"BELLEVUE, WA – The U.S. Supreme Court has denied a petition for certiorari from New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal in his effort to escape the jurisdiction of the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in the ongoing First Amendment case brought by Defense Distributed and the Second Amendment Foundation. The Fifth Circuit had ruled unanimously that Grewal, because of his efforts to prevent distribution of materials related to the 3D printing of firearms, was subject to the jurisdiction of the Texas courts. Defense Distributed is headquartered in Texas."

I was reading a different article, someone speculated that they moved ballast around to help "rock" the ship free.

There, made it more noticeable. Some here want to use the story that kids were vaccinate with other vaccines, so this should be no big deal. But, those other vaccines went through MULTIPLE YEARS worth of trials and data collection BEFORE approved by the FDA. The China Flu vaccine was given a EUA less than 2 MONTHS after second injection, and this is a brand NEW vaccine, there hasn't be a single mRNA vaccine approved for use by the FDA in the country. Anyone who is fine with mandatory, mass vaccination with this unproven vaccine is nuts!

Yeah... crazy... just a minor small detail... get your vaccine, because the President of Rutgers says so... ....."Keep in mind the vaccines are not FDA approved yet; instead all the vaccines are being administered under a federal Emergency Use Authorization (EAU). Essentially what Rutgers is forcing upon their students is a mandatory policy for a vaccine that is not FDA approved. However, faculty and staff are not required, only the students. This is nuts! https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2021/03/28/rutgers-university-will-require-covid-vaccine-to-attend-in-person-classes-starting-in-august/

Seeing reports that they got it refloated and the stern is free. Here's a pic from Twitter showing GPS position. M/V EVER GIVEN has partially refloated in the #SuezCanal, pending official confirmation from Suez Canal Authority. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1376374194938683394

It seems that way. Here's a cross section of the canal and shows how the banks taper up. It looks like the bow really dug in, but they were able to move the stern a little today.

Isn't that the case all over, even in urban environments? The saying, "When SECONDS count, police are on MINUTES away, and will be there shortly, to take the report". So for a H.D. situation, everyone needs to plan accordingly, no matter where they are, city or country. I know in my case all emergency situations: police, fire, first aid, disaster, etc. revolve around what I can accomplish myself. There's no plan to have help from any of the above, and my thoughts are, "when they get here, they get here". I've planned for H.D. situations from all areas of the house and property. Calling 911 isn't part of the initial plan.

This is one big ship:

Wow... You might want to consider moving to a safer neighborhood....

I think the meme was relating to manual labor.. It was the Russians (we haven't blamed them for anything in a while ) Actually, some of the tin foil crowd blamed it on China, they hacked into the controls and ran it into the bank...

First, it looks like in this photo that the captain failed parallel parking when he got his license. And second, it's costing $400 MILLION for every hour this ship stays stuck. A few million here and few there, and soon you're talking real money!! The shipping crisis, now in its fifth day, has added to anxieties over the global supply chain which had already been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. Each day of blockage disrupts more than $9 billion worth of goods, according to Lloyd’s List, which translates to about $400 million per hour. Other media reports suggest at least two attempts will be made on Saturday to free the ship using the expected high tide. Reuters reported, citing sources, that work would begin at 2:30 p.m. local time. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/27/suez-canal-ever-given-owners-in-new-attempt-to-free-ship.html

About 100 years ago. This China Flu isn't one of them. But you can continue to hide in your basement, if it makes you feel safer.

In a pure world, sure.. But, is that what we've seen the last few years concerning guns, elections and other politically involved cases? Here's a link to many of the cases they refused to hear, see if you notice a pattern: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=u.s.+supreme+court+refuses+to+hear&t=h_&ia=web

I'll be really surprised if the decide to touch this one. My bet, they punt, just like all those other cases. Guns are too hot of an issue today. They won't touch the third rail.

I mentioned that the other day. They moved the gun information from Section D (second page) to Section A (first page), the first thing put on the form. Any idea why that changed? BTW, you might want to change that Nov. 2021 date.

Really... When was the last time a college required a NON FDA approved vaccine for students?

I want the Security 9, because you can never have enough tools in the toolbox. I believe, the right tool, for the right job. Maybe that's why I own over a dozen power drills.. Plus the Security 9 compact is a little lighter than the SR9C and larger than the LC9S, so it fits right in between them. The LC9s, being lighter, might have more recoil, but if it fits your grip better (it's a personal preference), you might not have an issue (you mentioned you were petite, right?). I don't notice a big difference between the two. The LC9 is a lot easier to rack. It was tough to find in stock, most places were out: https://shopdunns.com/

I have a smaller hand, so a full size 9mm is a little bulky. I have a Security 9 Compact in the mail coming in any day. It's a good choice in the compact division. I also have a similar compact, a Ruger SR9C, which is about the same size, so the Security 9 will be it's twin brother. These are both good choices for mid size 9mm that have 10 round mags. For something a little smaller, look at the LC9S, might fit your hand better. I also have one, a little bit small for my hand but a good pocket gun. Has both 7 round and 9 round mags. I searched around local, and no one could get the Security 9. I ended up ordering online and have it being shipped to my local FFL for transfer. Inventory, in general, is really light. Seems everyone is spending their $1,400 stimulus checks on firearms. I agree with that too.

Because 99.99% of kids in that age group survive Covid.... Administrators said President Joe Biden's mandate for everyone to be eligible for a vaccine by May, made during the president's first official press conference yesterday, should give students plenty of time to get their shots, UPI reports. "We are committed to health and safety for all members of our community, and adding COVID-19 vaccination to our student immunization requirements will help provide a safer and more robust college experience for our students," Rutgers President Jonathan Holloway said in a statement. "Vaccination is key to stopping the current pandemic," Brian Strom, chancellor of Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences, said. But then there's this: .."The university won't require staff and faculty to receive the vaccine, but they will be "strongly urged" to receive it." https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2021/03/26/new-jersey-rutgers-university-students-covid-vaccine/3531616761439/ So, for younger kids (who don't get sick from Covid), it will be mandatory, but for older professors (who do get worse cases) it won't.. Liberal Logic at it's finest!!

Stop at Shooters, right off Exit 58 on the Parkway on Rt. 539, and give the local dealers some business.

Buy oil stocks... Think gas prices are high now?? Just wait...

No... there's not enough free state left. Remember this?

Interesting note from the ruling, two justices voting FOR the ruling were Bush appointees... the Conservative judges fail us..... AGAIN: ....."In a 7-4 decision, an en banc panel of the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals said restrictions on carrying guns in public except for hunting do not violate the 2nd Amendment’s guarantee of the right to bear arms. “The government may regulate, and even prohibit, in public places — including government buildings, churches, schools, and markets — the open carrying of small arms capable of being concealed, whether they are carried concealed or openly,” Judge Jay Bybee, appointed by President George W. Bush, wrote for the majority. Bybee was joined by another Bush appointee and five Democratic appointees. https://archive.fo/dBME0#selection-2271.0-2271.74 Because they know Republicans won't push back.
