  1. Meh...I think you are being a bit of a drama queen here. The outcome of the Alabama special election, while very interesting is not really going to tip the balance in any appreciable way. It's not even a very good indicator of how future elections may go. It has such a special player in Moore, and such a one sided state in Alabama that it has grabbed our attention. But the spectacle will change nothing in the end. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  2. The most immediate China danger is the question of what they will do if the Trump Regime decides it wants a war to distract the populace from it's complete lack of effectiveness. There is already talk of a "premptive attack" on NK and the use of atomic weapons has not been ruled out. China's policy is believed to be that it will not stand with NK if it starts a war by launching an attack. But that it will side with NK if it is attacked first. This scenario could go sideways very quickly. Russia, China, and other players would have to make very quick decisions on how to respond. And the US would need to weigh it's response to that response. Although this is not all that likely to happen as far as we can tell at the moment it is possible. And the consequences could be a world completely different from the one we enjoy today. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  3. Their largest size is the VC4, which according to their website holds up to 170 standard canopies. I would guess that you could get a Pulse 190 or Storm 190 in there, but I would contact them to be sure. They also just put stock rigs in every size up on the website. **c* me, so that's like a main and 169 reserves? It now comes in Vc5 size. I just assembled one a week ago. I put a PDR176 up top and a Pilot 188 in the bottom. It's said to be able to hold a 193 reserve, but I'm glad I didn't have to try, the 176 was tight enough.

    Relax, you will not suffer for eternity. You will become one with the rest of the universe. As you are now and always will be. It is only your need to believe you will live forever that I scorn. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  9. That's an interesting point of view. You are correct, they are a for profit company. As a new jumper you don't really have any idea what companies have what reputations. And it is reasonable to assume that corporations are here to take your money and screw you over. Life teaches us that. Most gear companies are too small, and the industry is too small for them to last long if they don't keep up their reputations. But even so, there are some container makers who will recommend larger canopies than I would want to try to fit. Sunpath is not among them. If you are looking at a Javelin you can trust the sizing chart. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

  11. I know how much you love irony. How 'bout the irony of the biggest bogus bullshitter of all, (Trump) being felled by this bogus bullshit? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  12. Or snake oil. I've heard on the interwebs that it works great as well. I can sell you some if you like. PM me. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

    Yes Ron. As always in the morally bankrupt world of the "Christian Right" the ends justify the means. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  14. Many of Trump's associates are going to go down for money laundering. Probably including his son in law. It remains to be seen if evidence can be found linking Trump as well. In the legal sense the Russian election meddling will indeed amount to a nothing burger. But that won't matter. In a political sense it will be a very filling meal.

  15. I think most people aren't making fashion statements. They just prefer not to have the wind in their face. (Something that I don't understand myself) Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  16. What crime would that be? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  17. Correct. There is no such crime. Getting help from the Russians is also not a crime. Impeachment does not require a crime. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  18. Yes, that is a perfect example of the evil inherent in the Christian right beliefs. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  19. 'The RNC resumed supporting Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore' Well, we now know the true colors of the R's of this country; as if there was any real doubt. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/rnc-jumps-back-alabama-senate-race-after-trump-endorses-roy-n826496 Jerry Baumchen Trump and the RNC jumping back aboard Moore's candidacy means only one thing. They have decided that he can still win. The only reason they got off his wagon is that they thought it was going to crash. They have simply reassessed.

  20. Well then. I guess you know what to do. Pay it forward! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  21. Gowlerk does not think Trump is a great threat. America is a great threat with or without him. No other nation has as much potential to do as much damage Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  22. Courts and oversight do not restrict imperialist motivations. And no court can recall missiles after they are launched. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  23. I agree with most of what you are saying about the current situation regarding the show being put on by Little Rocket Man and The Dotard. I'm not talking so much about today or tomorrow. I'm talking about what nation poses a serious long term threat to all of the world. If any. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  24. I'm not asking what country is the biggest threat to individuals or groups. I'm not asking what country is better or worse to live in. I am asking what country poses a potential threat to ALL OF HUMANITY. I consider the answer obvious and I only pose it because of the outrageous rhetoric coming from US diplomats and officials about the threat posed by North Korea. There are only two main threats posed at this level by any one. One is the slow long term threat of climate warming and other pollution. The other is the threat of fusion bombs. No country has ever used a fusion bomb, one has used a fission bomb. The threat posed by NK is that their actions could start an exchange of warheads. But it takes two or more to dance.

  25. I am looking for reaction. But the current top leadership is not why I feel the USA poses the greatest threat to mankind of all the nations on Earth. I'm not USA bashing, America is my second favourite nation. But only America has the most power to pose a global threat to the world. What I'm really getting at is the hypocrisy of declaring NK to be a great threat. It does not have the power to be one. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.
