a) You probably don’t ride. Believe me, there are plenty of places that are unsafe for a car to pass where it’s no problem for a bike (either due to the bike being able to do the pass or simply because of things like better sightlines due to lane positioning etc). So it comes down to The Law vs. common sense, being…

It was a Turkey Shoot!!

That Pike missile/grenade will revolutionize ground warfare. It will mean any private can kill like Chris Kyle. Even the humblest 4 man fire team will now be able to reach out and kill at a mile away, with Hellfire level precision. Moar funding for that weapon right now.

In many ways this is a lot more chilling than any number of clickbait articles or sensationalist CNN headlines. This is the military industrial complex following the money. This is defense contractors feeling quite confident in where their wares are going to be headed. It’s a sure sign of where all these company’s…

Russia was invited by the recognized government of Syria. Russia has a naval base in Syria as well. Obama defied the will of the american people and got involved in another foreign conflict. It is this involvement that prevented the government of Syria putting an end to the fighting.

He should know what they are, he threw a couple around haphazardly.
