Every war to present date those numbers are going down till we will be fighting a war from outside DC via drones, etc... Probably already happening now. Commute into work, fight a war. We need @mead107 to step up his game and bring his MeadRobots into the field!!!

Dayton shooter managed to knock off 9 dead & was still clipped dead himself by law enforcement 30 seconds after he first discharged his weapon. Something is wrong here logically when thinking about that. 9 dead and LEO's responded in 30 seconds killing the active shooter. What does that tell you about modern firearms? How much faster can a responder get than 30 seconds! 30 seconds is an outlier response. Yikes!

Was Christmas Day 2019 picked for a reason... In reference to the famous truce in 1914... And other soldier induced truces throughout (especially during early stages) of the War, even on various other days of the year. Symbolic. Seems an odd day to release a movie. ???

What is better, no guns, or more guns?

Unfortunately, one ideology/side has the brunt of the firepower. Expect more of their shitshow as leadership fans the flames and demagoguery. -

Terror plot by who? White Nationalists Oh... Can't wait for the ferocious PPP horrible human beings on the right's response: "The leftists are gaslighting the situation." Who the hell knows what went on in Dayton & what it was about. Yet, the one in Gilroy & El Paso point to young white males fired up about immigration. Fired up about losing power and status in a changing society. All... I can say is yikes! As the people in power fan the flames! -

More guns! So we can all be "Super Hero" Domestic Terrorist fighters and shoot people in crossfire! Even "better"... So when a bad guy figures out that everybody is packing... All they have to do is fire once, slink away, everybody returns fire... Cops show up thinking people are the active shooter. Death by cops! What a crazy concept coming to a community near you! -
My grandfather was like this! ^^^^ He lived in an apartment next to Indians, smell drove him wild. Claimed it smelled like B.O. From "Life of Pi" https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/e63321fb-ffc5-410c-9ef9-f504efa2c040

Yes. Indians have the lowest incidents of Alzheimer's. And... They are linking it to curry intake as helping.

Just as the soft rains fill the streams, pour into the rivers, and join together in the oceans, so may the power of every moment of your goodness flow forth to awaken and heal all beings– those here now, those gone before, those yet to come. By the power of every moment of your goodness, may your heart’s wishes be soon fulfilled as completely shining as the bright full moon, as magically as by a wish-fulfilling gem. By the power of every moment of your goodness, may all dangers be averted and all disease be gone. May no obstacle come across your way. May you enjoy fulfillment and long life. For all in whose heart dwells respect, who follow the wisdom and compassion, of the Way, may your life prosper in the four blessings of old age, beauty, happiness and strength.

To kill other pests. The world would have too many bugs.

Usually iron and rust. Hydrant water is the same as tap water in house. Towns with high iron will flush the hydrant on certain days. Just don't do wash when they are flushing...

Kentucky > Army Corps of Engineers: Bye bye Carp!
ExiledInIllinois replied to BringBackFergy's topic in Off the Wall
Yeah, in 1970s... The first were, with the blessing of the government. Go figure. Big Floods in 1993. Arkansas ground zero. Catfish farms. Actually, interestingly... They tried to get the Asian carp to take off in Nile... In Egypt during late 1970s... As a food source. No go, too polluted, etc... They need clean water. Big river flows to spawn... As we started taking care of our waters better, they became unintended consequence. Their presence is solely related to clean water. I am all for clean water... But accept the consequences. Life ain't fair and perfect. If China wasn't a stinking ecological disaster, they'd be taking off in the big rivers there and treated as a food source. -
Nobody is being punished here. Sh... Rolls down hill. We are having a blast. It's just high. It would have to go a lot higher... And anyway... We just send it away... All areas of the Lake. If not controlled God would then punish. It's actually pretty cool looking right now! Got long way to go before we "punish ourselves."
-
Huh? Do you even know how things work? It's high. If we are effing with the flow, it should get lower, lower, and lower. We don't put water back... We take, take, take! Millions of gallons per minutes! Anyway... Do you know how big and deep Lake Michigan? The the river openings are like trying to drink the ocean with a straw. Now... I will give you dredging the mouth of Lake Huron (basically one lake with L.Michigan, they are same elevation) below the bedrock north of Detroit.... But again, that should make Huron-Michigan drain FASTER and hence Lakes get LOWER. AND the water added INTO Lake Superior in Canada via the Arctic is tightly controlled into Huron-Michigan @ The Soo. That's all set international. If anything... They would draw us down over a year or so. Create a stranglehold. Illinois is drinking the inland "sea" through a straw! We ain't doing shi... Drop in the bucket. If Mother Nature ran unabated... There would be no divide, species would freely go back and forth uncontested. You'd cry about that. /smh... Hate to say, but don't be an idiot even if you are trolling!

This is only a test. This has only been a test: Thought so... Good luck, been nice knowing you! Buck up old little camper! [As: @BringBackFergy @Gugny & @Cripple Creek all run around full of unlimited life! NOT that there is anything wrong with that, but I choose death.]

True. And there is a tribe in Borneo that eat nothing but the same, one bland porridge their whole life... They know nothing else! So they are happy with it. Give them choice, they will go off the rails.

Wooo... Not so fast! Is there a game out there that people play 24/7 that uses pencils to stab out jugular veins? We might think different about pencils. These gamers are sitting behind a virtual first person shooter world for hours on end. I can see where reality and virtual reality can get blurred. They don't call YouTubers "influencers" for nothing. Really bad example you used. Apples and oranges.

That's most vegetables! LoL...

Sorry to stray from OTopic. But there is a Lake & River cruise. Air & Boat show is coming up... Outside of Seattle, they are processing the most vessels... 3 days of Air & Boat, they will process 5,000 individual vessels. Gets pretty crazy, crowded. I really should make peace with @BringBackFergy & @Cripple Creek and score them some cruise tickets! But anyway... To stay on topic. Hard NOT to say the U.S. craziness is spilling into Canada. It's spilling everywhere through out the world.

When the construction crew drove the piling accidentally through the river wall during the early 1990s (1991?)... The water flooded a lot of the service tunnels and basements of skyscrapers. They at the harbor controlling works were full closed Us, 20 miles away were running 40 feet of dam... Full open... To attempt to just keep the shipping canal deep enough.

Lake tour, river or both? Incredible the Lake is now 5 higher than it was 10 years ago. A foot higher than when I started in 1991.

Oh... The head of the eDNA tech at Notre Dame that sold his flawed tech to the Feds in 2009 when his Michigan funding was running out is now at Cornell. I bet @BringBackFergy knows him! After a decade of studying, they don't even use the technology that much... Too many real world vectors, false positives. The last decade, all they do is shock and net. But they can't find Asian carp up here! Because there is none up here. They just shock the other fish and release. They pulled 100,000 pounds out in 2011, no Asian carp. Again... More power to the Rednecks... It's been 25 years and they are finally getting to shocking, cleaning up their mess they started. It started down there in Arkansas, Kentucky back in the 1990s.
