    Quick local news story I saw less than 30 minutes ago.

    Story, fracking near school (minimum distances etc)

    Mom and kids playing at school playground bitching about fracking near schools....

    Some other "school official lady" flapping off about "kid safety, environment blah blah".

    Back to Mom playing with the kids, it's getting dark and they want to go home now cause it's getting pretty cold.

    Closing scene is Mom saying "Lets go home and turn on the fireplace". WTF?



    Sounds like they're fixing to walk home and click the on the GAS fireplace when they walk in the door. GFY.

    Well, I'll tell you what I think happened. I was cutting up a cherry tree to use for my smoker and I had the guard taped back so I could just plunge cut over and over. I was holding the tree with one hand and the saw with the other. I was getting confident and going fast and I think that I put enough lateral pressure onto the saw that the blade flexed into the guard.

    And people think walking on roofs are dangerous.

    Everyone i've ever heard bitch about O&G i ask this question. Which usually shuts them up.

    I agree we should stop all fracking. Right after everyone here has their vehicle towed to the scrap yard and you walk home.


    Nobody needs an assault weapon. You're right, nobody needs a SUV. Try walking or better birth control

    Is it normal for me to not be able to find info about which model of comp or brake to get for my can? Are the proprietary comps/brakes for QD suppressors not really ever tested?

    Found an hour long video of testing 44 different brakes/comps. None are what I'll be getting. Ultimately it won't matter because I have zero experience with anything beyond an A2 flash hider, and I'll have the can by then anyway. Plus, I'll find out first hand when I install everything myself.
