About 80% of people are right-handed. So a shooter intending to shoot the officer is most likely going to have the gun in his right hand.

Honestly it’s not even a debatable give and take. The statistics bear it out, cops doing traffic stops get hit a shitload more often than they get shot. The only reason to even entertain the “easier to shoot” narrative is the same completely fictitious “war on cops” excuse they use to buy armored vehicles and swat…

There’s an interesting tactic used by the state troopers in my state: Go to the passenger’s side.

While everyone else is arguing over intent, let me propose this:

I don’t get it. I thought Cuba had the best healthcare system in the World. Why waste tax payer money?

So it can ring ahead and warn the cops of an incoming Skyline to be seized!

What’s funny is the common inlet/exhaust w/ a ramjet/scramjet is something I used on a design back in high school for the NASA Junior Aerospace Scholars Program.

I don’t have the description for it all still written down, but I do remember this being a multiple mode setup to allow it to be a LEO spacecraft where it…

What you see in this video is not a barrel roll. It is an aileron roll. Sorry, pet peeve of mine.

that was an AC-130.
but to the general question, the B-1 video was an aileron roll, not a barrel roll. a barrel roll can be performed in almost any aircraft by a competent pilot because G forces can be kept within the 1-2G range throughout the maneuver.
with an aileron roll you actually experience negative Gs on the…

These two rolls aren’t really ‘barrel’ rolls. They’re ‘aileron’ rolls that can be performed by any air frame that has a decent roll rate. Barrel rolls, while keeping positive Gs throughout, take a lot more space and altitude. Aileron rolls, depending on how fast you roll, may introduce some ‘light in the seat’ or…

The BONE is basically an overgrown fighter jet with more bomb capacity than a B-52. That said, aircraft hardly need to be acrobatic to safely do a barrel roll - which is really a low-stress maneuver.

Do you wrap your helmet in tinfoil, or just wear it underneath?

You’re an idiot. There’s a distinct difference between an offline device using your phone to place a 911 call if a certain threshold is exceeded, and a device actively broadcasting all your data to the evil gubmint for some reason.

A distress signal when the IMU senses that the bike is upside down, and an alert to police when certain speeds are reached, are two very different things.

I wish you the best of luck at a good job away from Gawker media. I hope all the Jezebel writers remain unemployed.

Is wer bad, comrade.

Tyler, I absolutely love your writing. Please tell me you will still be employed after The Hulkster owns Gawker. I look forward to Foxtrot Alpha every day.

Really hoping this hope for sarcasm is sarcasm. The original was quite obviously sarcasm.
