    The regs don't state that you need trigger locks. I just prefer to use them, in addition to locked storage.

    Yes. Yes I did. All my firearms are properly stored and have some form of trigger block.

    It absolutely is more difficult. I bought a cheap set of picks to get a trigger lock off my 1022, because the key wouldn't fit for some reason. Got that off and decided to try my hand at it, with more locks and better picks. One thing I learned was that the new locks, that I bought to replace my...

    I made damned good money, from tips, when I worked in the old Terminal 1 parking lot. Got really good at getting into cars when people locked their keys in them. Running cars pretty much doubled what they offered to get help :ROFLMAO: (These days I'm trying to learn basic lockpicking)

    "Blake's 7" is pretty good, but has Doctor Who level effects. That's a pity. To me, DS9 is some of the best Trek since TOS.

    You'll likely start to see the parallels between in and "Deep Space 9" almost immediately. JMS pitched B5 to a bunch of studios, including Paramount, in the late '80s. DS9 started production a couple of years before B5, but Paramount had JMS's B5 "bible" for several years before DS9 was in...

    I went back to rewatching "Babylon 5" and the scenery chewing soap opera grade acting is just as I remember it. Harlon Ellison helped to keep the story on track and the writing was always excellent, which is its saving grace. I'm really enjoying watching the character arcs again. Prime picked it up.

    Tat would make the corner in your picture 4 then, not 3 ;)

    I don't know that I'd dignify the shallow left arc with the name "corner." In the little speech I would give, at the top of Snake, I would refer to it as left, dogleg right, decreasing radius left.

    And right where everyone seems to do it. Slightly decreasing radius left and people go in too hot, then find out it's tightening up. I've pulled two people out from under that rail on group rides.

    Nice. Dangerous operation. A charge under the CCC. From what's in the video it definitely rises to that level. 'I was running out of gas so I decided to burn it as fast as I could.'

    Tinted plate covers make it impossible to report plate numbers in hit and run collisions, which directly impacts the general public. Heavy window tint is a danger to officers as they can't determine vehicle occupancy, or actions of the occupants. We don't live in Arizona. You don't need heavy...

    I didn't realize that "One Piece" had a series of 5 "making of" shorts and they were definitely worth watching. Especially the last one in which Iñaki Godoy (who plays Monkey D Luffy) interviews the creator of the original creator in Japanese, which he had only started learning earlier the year...

    A previous member here had his house robbed, while he was at work, by some 20 year old with a backpack. Middle of the day. He just walked up to the front door, kicked it in, went through the house for a few minutes, then went out the back sliding door. Cops said he hit several houses the same...

    Taking advantage of the whole InCel thing to drain impressionable young men out of what little money they have and, simultaneously, creating some very dangerous people out of it.

    He's also using government (ie OUR) money to buy radio time, to tell us what a great job he's doing. Must be really feeling those two polls that showed his support is slipping.

    I guess that I'm going to be watching more superhero stuff. The first 3 episodes of season 4 of, 'Invincible" just dropped on Prime. I didn't even know they had green lighted it.

    Police being above the law doesn't necessarily cater to liberals/progressives, especially not in the current environment. That's more a conservative thing.
