BMM, Come on Man ! Solar has been around for decades and so has wind power. The power supply from both of those systems to power the US isn't there and never will be. We'd have to cover the planet with solar panels and that would only supply 1/2 of the energy we need. If you don't know it already, that energy needs to be stored somewhere and that somewhere is a bank of batteries. The energy storage is the weak link in the solar/wind power system. Batteries don't last long and need to be replaced and recycled. Over in Europe, their dealing with a serious crisis on what to do with electric vehicle battery disposal or recycling. Imagine that crisis on a 10 times bigger scale over here ? America has been leading the rest of the world for too long and all we have to show for it, is higher taxes and more jobs going overseas, where they use slave labor and no pollution controls. Name one other country that tax's it's citizens and sends those tax dollars to America ? If America kept 10% of what we send to other countries, we'd have the money to pay off our debt. If we saved 20%, we'd pay off our debt and have a kick ass health care system. The American taxpayer is going to get it in the ass again with Biden's Green deal, which isn't a deal at all, unless you call getting screwed in the ass a deal.

My response is to you, thinking that was actually hard to watch. I've seen principles in catholic school treat students that fell asleep in class with worse punishment and then those students got their asses beat at home for it too. I came from a different time, when people were held accountable for their actions and the police weren't called because a 9 year old is acting out, they were called for real problems. If I did something wrong, I got disciplined by my parents. If I didn't, I didn't and life went on. Now it's the nanny state, full of a bunch of pansy ass pussies that think their supposed to be friends, not parents to their children and the police are supposed to fill the authoritarian role and discipline their children. Well, this is what happens sometimes. This isn't the cops fault, it's the demented societies fault.

Hard to watch ? Maybe they should've put her in a safe space and given some chamomile tea ? They were handling her with the amount of force she was resisting with. That's the mild pepper juice, not the real stuff, otherwise you would've really been upset watching the video of her vomiting. Officers can't let their guard down when responding to any call these days and that takes a toll on them mentally + physically. Does anyone question why more than two officers were at the scene for a domestic call dealing with a child ? And King Cuomo's inflammatory response to the situation didn't help the matter in any way either.

Anything that contradicts VH's point of view is deemed a conspiracy. No matter if Obama came out and said it himself, he would spin it as that "they" turned Obama somehow. Counter points? I'm expecting some more gibberish, backed by some insults and then a change of topic. You know, the typical "progressive" response.

A smack to the knoggin to clear ones thoughts is a lot better than pepper spraying the cruiser that your going to be driving around in the rest of the day. Still no reason to riot, as the girl wasn't killed and is probably going to be set for life after they sue the RPD, with NY taxpayers footing the bill.

Well, it's only conjecture until an eye witness comes forward. Seems to be murder, plain and simple. At approximately 9:00 am, a boat approaches their blind, and that was the suspect, David Vowell. Mr. Vowell asked them if he could hunt out of that blind. They said ‘yes.’ He started getting his gear together. A few seconds after that, the gun went off, and Mr. Grooms was shot,” Thomas said. “Just a few seconds after he arrived and asked if he could use the blind, and they said yes, and that’s when the survivor noticed him loading his gun, turned around and heard the gunshot, and he thought it was an accident.” After the second hunter was shot, Crabtree wrestled the gun from Vowell and knocked him into the lake. Crabtree then boated away from the scene to seek help. The last time Crabtree saw Vowell, the suspect was in waist-deep water, walking towards the bank.

The ends justifies the means. And do you really think Joe Biden remembers what they told him to say in October 2020 ?

Depends on your budget. Most start off with some type of NV scope and Thermal spotter combo first, then after a year or two, add a thermal scope. Once you go thermal, it's all over for NV. While I'm told that there are a few out of a thousand ATN NV and thermal scopes that may work good, most don't. It's a roll of the dice that most lose.

I agree, but are all of these carbon emissions coming from the US of A ? Hell No. Do we have to suffer for the non conforming nations that have no pollution controls in place and laugh at us for destroying our economy in the process ? These same nations are in the Paris accord and don't pay a dime, but get to tell us what to do ? F them and the cloud of smog they rode in on. Trump was correct in getting out of the Paris accord and now Biden's jumping back in with both feet first. Solar and wind power only account for 4.5% of our energy production and that 4.5 percent comes at a high cost, with little to show. If there were renewable energy sources that showed promise, there would be no question the American public would be all for it, but it's not there yet. Almost everything on this planet emits carbon and the ocean sucks it up, so if the polar ice caps melt and make the ocean larger, it's actually helping in reducing the carbon on the planet.

I've never tasted fallow deer, but have eaten red stag many times. We call it gourmet and much better tasting(to me) than venison.

But I did stay at a holiday Inn last week, so there ! While I may not agree with anything VH or BM post here, they do have a right to say it and being the good hearted patriotic conservative I am , I'm not going to ask for or want them censored, even if what their saying is total BS. And that BS doesn't stand for Bernie Sanders. I just wish their political friends in power now had the same attitude, but as expected, their masters are on the path to ruin, taking down their serf voters with all the rest of us.

Fact's to a progressive socialist, is like Garlic to a Vampire.

The pollution effects to the planet, aren't caused by the US alone. It's the other countries that say their doing their part, but aren't, that are the issue here. Until those countries do their part, the US could stop using every type of fossil fuel and it still won't have any effect on pollution.

What does Fauci or Dr Oz say about it ? Until the socialists take down every type of evidence that contradicts their agenda, I'll go by the millions of years of hard evidence that scientists have gathered that show "Global Warming", "Climate Change" and whatever new age term they can come up with, has been happening with and without the very egotistical human race being on this planet. It's not happening faster or slower, because the data collected shows what's happening over decades and centuries, not daily or even yearly. I should buy stock in Aluminum foil companies , as I see a big need for the production of tin foil hats for many Dems coming soon with the new Climate Czars "Sky is falling" press conferences.

Like when I used to go to Mexico, I now need to be reminded that I shouldn't drink the water in Cooperstown ! If you break things down to population numbers, the US actually is in the middle of every type of graphic, but since we have 360+ million humans living here, you can't compare our numbers to Germany's 82+ million population. The info is out there, provided by Gov't and private sources, you just need to take the blinders off.

Running out of time ? Are you so vain to think that mother nature cares about the human race and that we can actually change the planets temperature ? Do you know how many world altering atomic and nuclear devices were set off in the 40's, 50's and 60's ? Mother nature said bring it on, that's all you got punks !!!! We've been on this planet but a millisecond in the planets timeline and if she wants us gone, no amount of recycling or sacrifices are going to stop her. Just ask the Dinosaurs and the Mayans, who must've really pissed her off !

Well, lets follow China's lead and put a limit on the amount of children Americans are allowed to have, as the need for energy is derived from the amount of people that need that energy. Maybe we need to start WW3, as the China Virus isn't living up to it's death expectancy numbers, even with Heir Cuomo's helping hand. Less people, Less oil. You heard it here first.

What's not so funny here, is that while the US is leading the world in reducing it's carbon boot print, the rest of the countries that are supposed to be doing the same, aren't. Paris accord or not, the US is doing it's part and more and those other countries were laughing at us, until Trump took the US and it's billions of dollars out of the Accord. Then their tune changed and the accord went to crap, as the other countries that were supposed to be contributing, couldn't come up with their measly contributions. No US money, No Paris accord. Now we're going to bend over and take it up the arse and give money to other countries for not doing their part, AGAIN !!!!! Also, the climate czars that are leading the charge have the biggest carbon boot print and won't give up there gas guzzling cars, suv's, jets and multiple mansions, all the while telling us to start using solar and EV's ? Thanks, but no thanks.

Females always see to learn quicker than the males. Are you going to get her fixed ? My Gordon setter is going on 15 now and is all grey in the muzzle. Seems like yesterday when I was house training him.

Well, here it comes. https://www.yahoo.com/news/authorities-found-sniper-rifle-handcuffs-124156579.html What some would call a hunting rifle, you know, a bolt action rifle with a scope you buy at WallMart, is now described as a "Sniper Rifle". I guess it's that evil clamp on bipod and sling ? A tactical vest with patches on it ? Airsoft players beware ! What's next, I'm going to have to show my pistol permit to buy Zip ties and all Zip ties must have serial numbers ? When are they going to start the zip tie buy back program to make the streets safe again ?

How's Nala doing ?

I'll be taking a break from coyote to hunt grouse next weekend, if the snow doesn't pile up that much to effect the dog's from working. Otherwise, the snowshoes come out and we'll take turns at being the dog. It's gonna feel weird walking around in the daylight carrying a shotgun.

1oz 7-1/2, mod choke in my 20 ga for decades, until I started using a 28ga, using the same load and choke. I was told to use 6 or 4 shot, but ended up blowing the crap out of them, or wounding them with one errant pellet. Upland or fur, 1oz of 7-12 does the trick. Try it, you'll like it.

No that's Chinas Fault, The socialists that bought and paid for Biden's election. Too bad Russia lost interest in Trump, or we could've had four more years.

They try to spin it that this is some type of right wing response to the inauguration, but it's ANTIFA doing just what I predicted, turning on their masters for not being radical enough. The Soldiers at the inauguration weren't there to protect the Elite from right wingers, they were there to protect them from their socialist dogs that are running amok now, attacking the hand that feeds them. They can't help it, it's their nature. https://www.wsj.com/articles/inauguration-day-protests-in-portland-seattle-turned-violent-11611260877
