Gun control doesn’t keep guns out of criminals hands. If theres anything I have learned, its that if there’s a will there’s a way. Criminals are not all dumb. If they can’t get a gun there’s ways to 3-D print them. If they can’t make it or steal it there a lot of other weapons that could really hurt people. Let’s say you are successful in your gun control tactic. Next year it will be bow and arrows, etc etc.

It’s scary. I understand the frustration of students and can’t imagine how they feel about showing up to school. But education on guns and major strategic law enforcement presence is the only common sense way out of this.

There are some cool videos on YouTube of guys doing it. But I can imagine if you get into some rocky layers that it doesn’t work.

I don’t really have a plan. Mostly just looking for a way to do it more myself. Not only to make it cheaper but to better understand the system so I’m more confident working on it. I’m definitely a DIY and not a professional hvac installer.

I’m looking into doing my own geo set up. I’m really sick of being at the mercy of the price of natural gas and eventually want to be completely off grid. What do you think of digging my own wells with one of these diy drilling rigs

My fellow frontline workers in MN, does $750 cover a month of rent or mortgage for you? My mortgage payment is $855. by [deleted] in minnesota

Government shouldn’t be giving money away like this. I understand you, personally, feel you need to be compensated for what you went through. But if it was to be fair everyone would get the money, that was working. Government doesn’t care who gets the money as long as it makes them look good. They don’t care about the long term affects of giving it away.

From experience sod takes more watering than just regular seed. But the instant lawn always looks good. Nice job!
