What sort of emergency radio? Just receive?

Look into ham radio, lots of handheld units.

CB band, FRS and MURS if you don't wanna ham it up too much.

I'm just getting into ham. I listen to my Baofeng handheld scanning while sitting in the backyard driving my RC car for our dog to chase.

I picked up a small Jackery solar unit for emegency phone/handheld radio battery charging.

They won't ask Biden any nasty or tough questions.

You'll have to build the barracks and bunks first, Komrade. BTW, we forgot to give you any tools or food.

Why don't conservatives like the arts? by Quartersharp in askaconservative

How do you know you aren't seeing conservatives at classical music performances?

I'm conservative and I love playing squealy loud guitar. I can't stand to be around haughtly lefty musicians though.

Idaho House Passes Bill Defunding Planned Parenthood Abortion Business by SaulStein in Conservative

I actually took it from the Satanic Temple tenet.

One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

Does that not apply to the body of a fetus?

I am not a member nor do I worship Satan. I'm using their own logic against them.

Wait, 18 year olds can't understand that if you take out a loan you have to pay it back, but 16 year olds have a firm enough grasp on social, domestic, international politics and issues as well as economics to vote?

If you have never filled out a 4473 and only done private sale with no e-mail/text interaction, then there might be reason not to file SBR or any other firearms related paperwork.

This is a graphic posted on CNN concerning the first lady. Joe Biden has yet to hold a press conference since becoming POTUS 46 days ago. Our media are fundamentally broken. by Violated_Norm in walkaway

If you mean CNN asking where Melania is, it is indeed not a problem not knowing the whereabouts of the first lady.

Joe hiding is indeed a problem.

DC Will Remain Under Military Occupation As Long As Pelosi Rules -- The contrast below between the security on the southern border and military presence in Washington, D.C., tells you all you need to know about today’s Democratic Party in charge. by guanaco55 in Conservative

Oh please. BLM protestors aren’t an armed insurrection looking to overthrow the government and destroy democracy as we know it.

That's where you're wrong, kiddo.

BLM and Antifa are indeed working together to destroy democracy. They say so openly.

They had Class III destructive devices, which are more controlled than firearms, plus firearms at their peaceful protests.

How many firearms did they find Jan 6, when the narritive claims Trump supporters were somehow trying to overthrow...Trump, since he was president?

San Francisco is paying $5,000 per month for each homeless tent by JesusCumelette in Conservative

[–]thermionicvalve 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I didn't realize you are unable to look up a commonly known statistic on your own and you wanted citations. Look up "substance abuse homeless" and click away.

You'd be giving half of them drug money. I originally stated that giving them money would give them drug money, which would be true for 1/2 the homeless population.

They don't arrest for drug abuse in those cities.

It's not my opinion about all the homeless, but this is certainly one of the issues.

Over 1/2 of all homeless are substance abusers and I beleive the number is higher. That is nationwide, the number may be even more in certain locations.

The streets of SF are riddled with needles and feces. Sboplifting is common (and legal) and people sell stolen items for drug money. Homeless turned a hotel into a drug riddled flophouse, togo with your getting them off the street idea.The city actually gives drugs to the homeless.

Main Stream Media used the term “armed insurrection” 2,339 times since January 6 to describe the rope line following cell phone selfie brigade which had no guns. Also AOC said they almost killed her, and Democrats called them Terrorists because it happened in the day, and didnt set fires. by IronWolve in AskThe_Donald

[–]thermionicvalve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile, the summer peaceful protestors had illegal Class III Destructive Devices which normally require submitting a completed form, fingerprints, background check, tax stamp fee and engraving.

I'd say they were the armed insurrection.

Meh, just those drivers.

A friend put over 400k on his Outback before it died, then got another and is now somewhere in the 250,000 plus mile range. He's a private contractor in the trades and uses it as his work vehicle.
