    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    So on the same grounds, but separate? Feels like a mistake that anyone could make.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    When adrenaline is going it's easy to miss that you're in a crossfire situation. It shouldn't happen, but it does.

    At least they got him, this time, and he wasn't able to "drive home and knock a few back to calm his nerves", like a BC RCMP officer.

    I see the mistake. The shouldn't have charged him with both Careless Operation Causing Death (HTA) and Criminal Operation Causing Death. Under The Charter you can't be found guilty of the same crime, twice. The guilty pleading under the HTA immediately invalidated the criminal charges. Rookie...

    Here's the video from this morning. There was more than one idiot, but this guy topped the list.

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    Stay home if you can today. It's not worth it. I was coming down the ramp from The Gardiner to Habour Street, at about 5:10am, and some complete idiot powered through TWO stale red lights (like 20 seconds stale)southbound on Lower Simcoe, cutting between me and the car in front of me, damned...

    To me it felt more like she should have been shouting "WOLVERINES!"

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    The incident, itself, doesn't appear to be race based. Public urination can be charged as public indecency and people have actually ended up on the sex offender registry for it. In this case the officer actually was justifiably in fear for his safety. The SIU member, on the other hand, should be...

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    ICE agents aren't police and the scope of their duties is rather narrow. Before this godawful regime they would generally work WITH police, when performing actions away from the borders. Now they're being used like a private army.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    I've heard reports that the woman and her passenger were "Neighbourhood Observers", who were actively tracking the actions of ICE. Given the latest spate of rush hiring and how they can't seem to abide any objections in general, this sort of outcome is inevitable. The officer who fired placed...

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    Government edicts, that don't come with funding, are the likely cause of things like, "Whoops, that old hotel that was quite likely more of a brothel that was designated a Heritage Building, at Yonge and Gould, 'accidentally' burned down."

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    I wouldn't have known the difference and as a left shooter have always had to use stuff made for righties anyway. In high school all they had were right handed bows so I flipped them over and used the flat on the bottom of the grip, instead. I own a 45# left-handed flatbow (special order 40...

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    It definitely wasn't hard, even with the cheap kit that I bought. It's just fiddly, which is kind of my thing anyway.

    Even some professional makers use toaster ovens, oddly enough.

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    Nope. I've just had the pistol for a while and finally decided that it needed a holster. The arrows that you see in that quiver of mine are some cheap carbon fibre that I bought on Amazon. I bught a dozen. Half of them were fletched wrong (key flight 180 degrees off from where it should be). I...

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    I've got a few sheets of Kydex and have been thinking about holsters and sheaths. I need a way to heat it evenly though. The default seems to be large toaster oven.

    I could see why some people wouldn't be happy with it but I don't have to, because they're SO DAMNED VOCAL ABOUT IT. You should see what it's like on the Dungeons and Dragons forums. "Their game is ridiculous! That D&D character didn't even exist until 2002!!!"

    Also, 4 years after making the body of this quiver I finally took the last couple of days to make a shoulder strap and finish off this project.
