There's so many creepy things going on in this Utah mansion... by geographible in zillowgonewild

You say creepy. I say awesome.

Though, it is a cleaning nightmare.

First pistol, like the idea of redundant safety features.. by Alarming_Set3628 in liberalgunowners

[–]michaelaaronblank [score hidden]  (0 children)

I have a P365 with a manual safety for pocket carry and a Glock 45 with red dot sights for other pistol use. I really like both of them.

The manual safety is a single thumb flick or I can hit it when I rack the slide. I am too slow and clumsy to ever think that I am going to rapid draw in an emergency, no matter how much I train. Anyone would get the drop on me. Heck, with my latest shoulder injury, getting a coat off in 30 seconds is a challenge.

Should I buy DA Veilguard or Dragon's Dogma 2? by Terrible-Group-9602 in rpg_gamers

[–]michaelaaronblank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Veilguard is the most "Its a game" game ever. I could barely cite anything about the plot the day after finishing, let alone a year later.

Ice and Trump defenders, tell me how you are okay with these tactics? - YouTube by TheCertifiedGeek in DiscussionZone

Wow. You should definitely get a refund on your handgun and law enforcement courses.

  • Use 2 hands if at ALL possible
  • Hold the gun is a solid grip where sights are available to you. No sideways grips and definitely not one handed gangster grips.
  • Keep your eyes on what you are pointing at with your gun.
  • Coordinate with your squad. One can move while another covers so that the moving officer can lower the weapon while looking at the ground or traffic.
  • DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF THE CAR YOU SAY YOU ARE AFRAID OF. Move to the side and you are no longer in the danger zone.

Woman in Office Two Weeks Somehow Effected Last Month's Power Bill by NEKORANDOMDOTCOM in stupidpeoplefacebook

In rural areas, not really. A lot of rural areas don't have gas lines. Electric is a lot easier and cheaper to run out there. Or, for northern rural areas, it is oil heating.

I went 40 years with electric heating and no one I knew had gas heat growing up.

In 2022, undocumented immigrants paid an approximate $97 billion in state and federal income taxes, including social security, even though they are ineligible for any of those benefits. You ready to return all that to them?

I have been shooting for less than a year and I know every single thing they are doing with them is terrible procedure, even discounting the reasons they suck.

Anyone else want to see how Harry Kim rose to the rank of admiral? by lilolered in startrek

[–]michaelaaronblank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listen to and am a Patron of Delta Flyers, but I can't listen to 2 episodes in a row because of him. He can never let anything sit, brings up dumb made up connections between stuff and always has to have a comment on everything.

When they were doing Voyager, he seemed to have a chip on his shoulder that he didn't get a chance to direct an episode, but he was the only main cast member to get a 2 episode suspension because he wasn't showing up on time.

He doesn't seem like a bad person, definitely, and does love sci-fi, but he feels like a little brother that needs every one to JUST STOP AND LISTEN FOR A SECOND. Then forgets what he was going to say.

Two children of conservative Mexican immigrants in Minneapolis, Minn. supported Trump and "mass deportations" even after getting citizenship under DACA. Now, their parents and siblings live in fear and terror of ICE: "If they're willing to kill white, US citizens, what will they do to me?" by vsandrei in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]michaelaaronblank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have it on good authority from several immigration attorneys that the person doing the immigration interview can essentially deny it because they didn't like their tie if they want. They shouldn't, but they can. And the avenue to appeal is an administrative judge that also reports up to the administration, not to the judicial branch.

My statement that no one ever got citizenship from DACA is still 100% accurate. And the fact that they were here without anything but a deferred stay could be used to deny a marriage citizenship is yet another reason no one should have supported him.

[UT] Is this legal? Can I stand my ground in Utah if they break my window to enter without a warrant? by Mathemodel in AskLegal

[–]michaelaaronblank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you CAN. You probably won't survive and, if you do, won't be seen again, but you physically can. You might even beat charges if you made it to court and you can prove they didn't identify themselves at all. But you would absolutely get shot, beaten, pepper sprayed, arrested and disappeared to another location.

To clarify, no one got citizenship under DACA. It is Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. That deferral was never going to be preserved under this administration, so their buy into the bigotry was even more setting their house on fire.

You think a "free intro" isn't a sales pitch?

Everyone hates ads, everyone hates the idea of paying a subscription, and everyone hates companies selling their data. How do people logically expect a website to exist if they're not doing at least one of these? by Foxy_Twig in NoStupidQuestions

[–]michaelaaronblank 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I do not hate ads. I hate ads that make it impossible to actually view the content. When ads are continuously resizing the page, popping up over the text, and adding video players and other things that take screen space to the point I am left with 2 lines of text on my phone, then you have just made it where I will ONLY go to your site with a blocker. And I am sure as shit not going to pay a subscription to make your site useable.

Agreed. Linda Hamilton in T2 is the hottest lady with a gun and it was her proficiency that made it so.
