Not just an AR-15, but likely an unregistered NFA weapon (circa the latest BATFE regulations on pistol braces.)
Shame.
Good catch.
Hard to tell with the gun half-covered. That barrel looks less than 16″?
Judging by the other stuff in the photo, I think it’s a 10.3″ Daniel Defense upper on a no-name lower. The lower has an SBA3 adjustable pistol brace and a Law Tactical folding stock adapter.
It’s 100% for-certain a sub-16″ barrel.
Damn – bows to the expert.
Nice!
Dumbass
(circa the latest BATFE regulations on pistol braces.)
The leaked regulations planned for release in December, right? I think pistol braces are still kosher for now unless I missed something.
Joe Wolf – it’s a crowd-control weapon. Sure, if you are into Boston Massacre style crowd control.
Of all the stupid things to say, that had to be near the top.

Re: New York girl — how do you repeatedly look nervously towards a bag strapped to your chest, anyway? For all the cop knew, her bra was uncomfortable… sounds more than a little fishy to me.
Why strap the gun to her chest – the one place the cop was sure to stare?
STOP.
They frisked her first and made up the story after.
Who are you going to believe? Our tireless public protectors or some random twitchy girl with an illegal gun?
Oops… our camera must have been malfunctioning.
If that was the bag in the attached photo? The black nylon one with all the MOLLE webbing? The cop figured there was a gun in there because he had two brain cells to rub together.
If you’re gonna roll dirty, you need to put a little more thought into it…
I have friends that have gotten into concerts with booze concealed in their bra, and onto planes with joints concealed in tampons. It takes creativity.
The tampon concealment is clever. I’ve used Chapstick and dental floss containers to smuggle similar contraband.
She concealed it in the applicator, resealed the package, and put it back in a full box. It was clever.
put it back in a full box
Phrasing?
That’s a small amount, you need to think bigger!
Cop said he saw the outline of the gun thru the bag… which is a total lie.
Of course it was. The surprising thing is that the cop even bothered to lie. He sees a black nylon tactical bag that’s obviously intended to hold a gun, does a Terry frisk, and surprise!

All kidding aside, this is interesting. Of course covariance does not equal causality. Maybe it will turn out to be a nothingburger; maybe it will get us better outcomes for cancer patients. It’s certainly going to generate a lot of grant proposals.
I’m hiding those articles from Mrs. Holiness.
In 2000, my dad came down with Guillane-Barre disease after a weekend we spent picking morel mushrooms. In Wife Land, there is a complete and total causal link between mushroom picking and viral infections that cause paralysis now. So don’t even mention going mushroom hunting around her.
Doesn’t matter that the six other people who were right next to my dad didn’t have any issues. Or that two different doctors pooh-poohed her “theory”. She knows.

Florida grandfather charged after rental car employee discovers toddler left behind in vehicle
However, I’m not sure what you do here. Assuming he is competent – he’s just not accustomed to having a kid with him – and he is an unfamiliar situation and made a big mistake. Sounds like he was remorseful an cooperative. I’m guessing he gets no jail time, but may never be allowed to be unsupervised with his grandchild.
Children left in the car is the canonical example of a law’s unintended consequences. Nobody forgot the baby in the front seat.

You are going to get a nuclear winter or a solar winter.
The White House is coordinating a five-year research plan to study ways of modifying the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth to temper the effects of global warming, a process sometimes called solar geoengineering or sunlight reflection.
The research plan will assess climate interventions, including spraying aerosols into the stratosphere to reflect sunlight back into space, and should include goals for research, what’s necessary to analyze the atmosphere, and what impact these kinds of climate interventions may have on the Earth, according to the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy. Congress directed the research plan be produced in its spending plan for 2022, which President Joe Biden signed in March.

Such a bold act of protest is highly unusual in China, particularly before a politically sensitive event, and would certainly draw ire from the top leaders and end in heavy punishment for the protesters. The police have pulled out all the stops in a “100-day operation” to thwart any potential social unrest that could disrupt a smooth transition of power in the leadership reshuffle at the 20th party congress.
I remember thinking during the early days of the Lil Rona Panic that, in whole or in part, China’s lockdowns were cover for disappearing dissidents. I still think that.

Dunno if this was covered earlier— if so, apologies. Parkland shooter Nikolas Cruz spared the death penalty by a south Florida jury.
I certainly understand the outrage at the jury’s recommendation, but I think that they may have inadvertently meted out justice more swiftly than would otherwise be done. If Cruz got the death penalty, he’d be around for decades as appeals wound their way through the state and federal courts. I’m of the mind that he, like Jeffrey Dahmer, won’t be tolerated by his fellow inmates, and that his life expectancy in general population of a place like the Florida State Prison would be measured in months, if not weeks.
As long as life in prison is actually life in prison, then I’m ok with that. And in Florida, that may be the case, unlike here in California.
In Florida, the only two sentences available upon a conviction for first degree murder are life w/o parole or death. And when you have seventeen convictions… suffice it to say, the only way Nik Cruz is leaving prison is in a hearse.
Yeah, he’s not gonna make a lot of friends in Starke.

I’m reminded of the story of the local cop who saw a guy driving along in a convertible with a bear riding shotgun. He pulls the guy over and asks what’s up with the bear.
“Oh, I trap them in the mountains,” the guy says. “I don’t kill ’em. I just catch ’em.”
“Well, you should take that one to the zoo,” the cop says.
“Yeah. Good idea. I’ll do that.”
The next day the cop sees the guy driving his convertible with the same bear riding shotgun, so pulls him over again.
“I thought you were going to take that bear to the zoo?”
“I did. Today we’re going to the movies.”

Arkansas man who sunk hole-in-one to win golf club’s challenge files lawsuit after prize withdrawn

A local brewery sets up a little putting green with a ridge in it during their big events. For every beer ticket, you get a shot at sinking a putt. If you win that, you get to come back later and shoot for a $1 tab for a year (each day you stop in, your tab will be $1… I think they have a $100-$200 limit per day on it in the fine print). The real challenge is that you have to be there to win the big prize, and well… you’re sitting around in a beer garden waiting…

It’s official, I’m leaving the People’s Republic of Illinois in November and moving to the Cleveland area. Unfortunately, my father in law was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia and my mothers in law needs a lot of help and emotional support so that’s what prompted this move. We’re trying to buy a house in either Cleveland Heights or Shaker Heights and we ran into something called the Point of Sale or POS. In Shaker, if you’re found with code violations you’ll have to give the village 150 percent in escrow of the violations charges to the village and won’t get that money back until you fix their list of violations. It’s the most ass backwards thing ever and I lived in the Chicago area my whole life
Sorry about the FIL.
Sorry about the family situation.
What about Bay Village or Lakewood?
My wife’s parents are in Cleveland Heights so she wants be as close as possible in case there are any emergencies.
I don’t know why I thought Shaker Heights was on the west side
Sorry.
Long time no see.
It’s been a hectic two months. We had the shareholders of the firm in town in September so of course they wanted financials and along with trying to pack and move to another state, I haven’t had as much time to shoot the shit with my fellow glibs.
Sorry to hear about your FIL. Cleveland area might be OK, although Ohio is infested with glibs, so I hear.
Sorry about the reason for the move. Shaker has all sorts of fun things like that, and don’t want easy access to the freeways. If you need anyone on the ground to check things out for you, feel free to reach out at my handle at the Google.
Thanks Neph! I’ll definitely ask a lot of questions.
Sorry about your Father-in-Law.
Sorry, dude.
I’m sorry to hear about your father-in-law.
Thank for all of your well wishes. It’s sad because he’s probably one of the smartest but also most generous people I’ve ever met. The only time I saw him get angry was years ago when he went to a McDonalds after his mother’s funeral and they didn’t have the shake machine working. He said, “I’ve had a long day and all I want is an effing strawberry milkshake from here.”
Sorry to hear about the father-in-law, Ed. Hope the move goes as smoothly as possible in spite of the code issues.
Good luck with the move and all. Moving is stressful even without the family situation. Stay stoic.
Condolences. I’ve got some MLS searches set up around that area, so that’s good information to be aware of.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11311921/RANKED-Alaska-Florida-Covid-proof-states-Montana-Michigan-vulnerable.html
Looks awfully random to me, even if you ignore the bullshit scoring.
Higher score is better?
Yes
If you are going to do this some index like this, the only measures that matter are hospitalizations and deaths. Even better would be a measurement of excess deaths or life-years lost. Then to say that blue states did better because their average rank is higher is stupid. If you are going to do a comparison you do a weighted average of their scores based on population.
That said, it’s funny that FL is #2 and TX #8, ahead of CA and NY. Even GA, which according to the media was practicing human sacrifice by opening its schools, came in ahead of NY.

I didn’t know NH Dems were still at this lawsuit.
The U.S. Supreme Court is refusing to take the appeal made by Democratic lawmakers suing state House Speaker Sherman Packard over the legislature’s COVID-19 restrictions.
The high court rejected the petition for appeal this week as the Democratic lawmakers sought to overturn the First Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that held Packard (R-Londonderry) is protected by legislative immunity when making House rules, including rules about what COVID precautions to institute.’
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Granite State Democratic legislators have aggressively pushed restrictions, including mask mandates and a demand to allow remote voting. And Democrats have continued that push even after a vaccine became widely available and the data showed mitigation efforts did little to stop the spread of the novel virus and its variants.
After the First Circuit Court ruled against the Democrats earlier this year, their legal team filed the appeal before the U.S. Supreme Court and prepared a new complaint in the lawsuit at the federal court in Concord.
Packard’s office said Wednesday he is reviewing his options after the development with the U.S. Supreme Court noting, “Speaker Packard is reviewing the latest details of this ongoing litigation case with his legal team.”/em>

Damn, I can’t wait for the election. Living in a large metro area, I’m inundated with tv and radio ads for congressional candidates plus the PA governor and senate races. And virtually every ad is just full of cliches promising good times, or half truth, spin doctored attacks on the opponent. One scores her opponent for having 77% of the locations on her company website are out of the country, implying jobs have been moved from America. Turns out these are sales offices overseas that generate export sales for the American factories. Now, Dr. Oz is being hammered for killing puppies in his pharmaceutical research lab, causing horrendous suffering. What’s the suggested remedy, becoming a vegan and throwing away all your medicines? It’s no wonder good qualified people are afraid to run even with squeaky clean backgrounds. The spin doctors will make you a villain no matter what. Take someone like Jesus: “He threw the local bakers, fishermen, and wine makers out of work by outsourcing supplies to his Father.” “He practiced medicine without a proper license.” “one of his Father’s spokesmen advocated scrapping the military, leaving them with no weapons to defend against our enemies.”
I have inferred, based on campaign ads, that Virginia has a lot of pregnancies caused by rape.
