    Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses After Being Hit By Cargo Ship

    I happen to work on a large ship, slightly bigger than the container ship parked on the bridge support. I am well aware of what they are capable of and what they are not capable of. Container ships do not maneuver like military craft in the least. You can call it condesention , or arrogance, or...

    Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses After Being Hit By Cargo Ship

    If you think dropping that anchor did anything AT ALL you are dropping acid! Let's put this in terms you would know since cowboy is in your name..... You attach a garden trowel to a bull with cotton twine tied around his neck. The bull sees a heffer that is "in the mood" and he starts heading...

    Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses After Being Hit By Cargo Ship

    The same could be said of any accident... The Macondo blow out... known to you folks as "Deep Water Horizon", the Tacoma Narrows bridge, the Hindenberg, the train derailment in Ohio, the Titanic, the Oil City Refinery.... Too much occured at precisely the right time! Well often time a cigar is...

    Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses After Being Hit By Cargo Ship

    Oh I'll help! Dropping the anchor would have done next to nothing to slow this "little skiff" at just 2 knots, dropping the anchor would probably stop that boat.... assuming no current, in a little less that 4 miles on a muddy channel bottom. Looked to me it was going about 3 knots. A harbor tug...

    Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses After Being Hit By Cargo Ship

    In two minutes??? Even if you cranked it hard over and ramped the engines all the way up you might have turned the ship a bit less than 1/16 of a degree! By the way Black boxes record when the power is on, not off. We know it lost power, at least twice, and we also know that when power is...

    Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses After Being Hit By Cargo Ship

    From most of these comments it becomes very apparent that the average person posting has no idea about how large ships operate and maneuver/steer. I work on a large ship, a bit bigger than this cargo vessel, and I can say what I see is purely accident. Some of the ideas and thoughts about how...

    Rem 1100 doctors ?

    First thing to try is a new magazine tube spring. If not that, your interceptor latch is either bent or the pin that holds it is broken.

    ATF Little Rock.

    Ok, so once again we kill people for a tax violation. Dealing without a licensed, means they don't get their tax.

    Why do you carry a revolver?

    I think most folks are talking about a cocked revolver, not shooting them double action.

    Why do you carry a revolver?

    At no time have I said one type was better than the other. All I am pointing out is that revolvers can and do Jam. The problem I have seen is too many folks think of a revolver as a load and forget system and they are not. You have to check the screws, you have to check the ejector rod, you have...

    Why do you carry a revolver?

    Hmmm, CCI 45 ACP snake shot cycles and feeds perfectly in my 1911. I can easily do what you suggest without anything other than pulling the trigger, I can even stager it snake shot, ball, snake shot, ball... Etc, or run 4 snakes shot and 4 ball. Gun cycles just fine, and yes I have tried it and...

    Why do you carry a revolver?

    If you all think revolvers never "jam" , that all ya have to do is just keep pulling the trigger, they never break, you are all very delusional. Just go watch a USPSA revolver match and take extra hands to count the malfunctions and breakages. There is nothing quite as amusing as watching a high...

    Why do you carry a revolver?

    Why do I carry a revolver? Well I don't, but the answer would be because you raise a lot of eyebrows kicking it down the street. 🤣

    Acorn falls on hood = shoot at handcuffed suspect

    Well, destruction of city property comes right to mind of a charge. Wreckless endangerment comes bubbling up, culpable mental state or not, but I digress. I agree on one thing, his department and training let him down. Over the last 25 years that I have been involved in training L.E. I have...
