In California, they recently passed a law that allows, if family and friends are worried about someone, for the those family and friends to sign a contract that would send the police in and remove all guns from that persons home and flag them on background checks.

This just sounds like Adam Lanza all over again.

I’ve told dozens of people this: open carry is stupid. You just announced that you are the first one that should be shot. Concealed carry can make sense as you can regain the upperhand when they don’t know who you are, but even then you need more training. And so many of these people spend most of their time buying…

As someone who owns guns, I would go further. There is no reason to open carry AT ALL in public. It doesn’t just put people on edge, its a useless defense strategy. You have given yourself away when you open carry. You are either the first person to be shot or the person just steals the gun off you or tackles you.

Anyone who needs 14 guns is an idiot. Not more, not less.

I’m not really sure why he is “disgraced.” What the fuck did he do?

So then, only in your opinion, with no other basis, are these officers unable to complete their jobs? You don’t actually have anything other than your own sense of being offended to actually disparage these officers. You have no proof or no reason to believe that these officers cannot complete their jobs other than…

Best place? Nope. Best place given the situation? Quite possibly. Maybe they were already investigating and had a lead on the suspect and really, really needed anything the victim could tell them RIGHT NOW because they were going to get cuffs on if they had just one or two other details?

Chupathingy. We have already settled this.

The GCWR on the Silverado is like 28,000 lbs altogether.

Yah its max speed is 70mph. But that is what makes me feel like it isn’t going to be geared down so heavily.

Soooo sorry that a police investigation inconvienced you. That was really your biggest issue?

Yah but these will still run at 70mph, where as the Hummer maxxed in the 50s. So they won’t be terribly low geared.

So wait, you really think then that cops can’t perform an investigation and stand by it becaue of their comments above? You think they cannot “support” an investigation based on what they said above? How? You really haven’t show that these cop are unable to do their jobs.

Not really, no. You are just entirely wrong here: a law enforcement officer is supposed to investigate crimes and uphold the law. They don’t know who a victim is even until an investigation has determined as such. Their responsibility is to determine what the situation is and defuse it so that the investigation can…

De-rating is likely just for longevity purposes. Most Medium duty trucks do run de-rated versions of the “light duty heavy duty” 3/4 and 1 ton trucks.

Chupathingy.

Wait what? For a vehicle this heavy shouldn’t it have something more like the Cummins ISL9 or the CAT C9.3? I realize CAT doesn’t technically make on-road engines but CAT engines have been used in MRAPs before.

Ok, so you seem to be confusing “logic” for “what you would have done.” Maybe the guy just assumes the other dudes wife has a poor reason to hate the reporter (which may be based on his own personal experiences with the other dudes wife) and that is a reason to know if he wants to date the reporter and he wants to…

I’m pretty sure the horrible humans beings are the ones who are so worked up about this because of how fragile they are. IE the women in this comment section.
