They bring them on airliners or try to, regularly in the states, old habits die hard!
When you have 200 million air passengers per annum, and 20 try that shenanigan, how do you think that’ll play in the press? The vanishing statistic, or twenty scary tales?

The Transportation Security Administration confiscated 5,700 guns last year, the most in the agency's 20-year history. And many of those firearms were loaded. "The reason, I think, is just that there's more firearms carriers in the country," TSA Administrator David Pekoske said at a press conference this week.Jan 13, 2022

So that would be maybe 1in 5000. Yeah, that crosses a threshold for me.

You really think people will not be screened for a whole whack of things that might be of danger to the infrastructure? How many people do you really think will be a floating tourist? That they would be able to walk on with their daily cloths, that they would not be x-rayed?

I was just kidding our American friends really and I don't think it likely.

This is extremely bad news for both of Canada’s astronauts.
Yep, if they tried to do that to an American they would be up against the second! The cry from the right would be thunderous, what about our rats! :lol: It's dangerous in space, besides guns don't destroy spacecraft people do!

I would be surprised if Chris Hadfield even drives above the speed limit. The other astronaut must be a real asshole.

Hey Ricky @CunningCanuk have you seen this show called Black Jesus from Clattenburg? Just saw the first season on Hulu and it was great (guess theres 5 seasons total), had a similar vibe/feel to the first 6 seasons of TPB. Fairly different show obviously, but was good.

I haven’t seen it but I think Mike Clattenburg is a genius, so I’m sure it’s good.

I was just sitting here with my wife passing the pipe & while she was scrolling music vids on YouTube this guy came up


Which made we think of this guy


Which in turn made me think of this/him


Which brought me to this


Why, you might possibly ask

These are some of the best songs/poetry/commentary ever performed that really are balls on about real life/reality in America.

Came a long way, since the Dylan wrote that tune in 1962 , haven't we.

And we're actually going backwards

God Bless America, right? (evidently he/she/it fucking hates us :( )

One year sober!
Oh yea,?

Fuck sobriety

Life's too fucking short to live sober, at least for me.

Been sober for almost 9 months now & felt like shit

I say's to myself, is life REALLY worth living without a drop of the "Breath of Life" (Irish for whiskey :) )

Nope

So, the other day, I say's too me self on that luvly day, with the sun shining & the birds tweeting, life is not complete, merely a dull, torturous , exitance, without that true connection to my soul.

So , I say's to me self it's time for a pint of Guinness followed by a wee bit of the mother's milk, some good Irish whiskey (you must be Irish to really understand, it's in our DNA)

Fuck it if I die from liver failure

This place sucks being sober & if my imbibing shortens it, my existence in this World, oh well, so be it .

At least I'll die with a smile on me face

Instead of a grimace


You can sing this at my Wake (if you can, show up, it will be classic )

:)
