> Things change. Deal with it.

There a 100m gun legal gun owners. They passed BG checks and they abide. Some hunt, some target shoot, some need them on their job, some are vets.... whatever. For decades now, they've been told "we're not coming for your guns". Yet, here we are; IL and similar are trying to pass some of the most restrictive gun laws that make owning a modern firearm (and obtaining the permits where obliged) nearly impossible. Like banning semi-automatic guns, cosmetics like their furniture ... ; despite the overwhelming evidence that it has no bearing on GV. Are firearms (part of) the problem? Sure, illegal guns, some loopholes in need of fixing maybe. But THE problem? Far from it.

Fix the income disparity, fix healthcare, fix the social safety net, then let's talk guns. One fact is indisputable: police and law enforcement will not protect you; they 'solve' crime not prevent it. Your safety is your responsibility; period.

Your feeling that 2A is outdated, that it costs you YOUR freedom, only shows your displaced trust in our broken systems; all its corruption notwithstanding.

We are a violent people, as a nation; what we do best are guns and drugs. Except up until recently they been generally aimed at points outside our borders (since we basically exterminated the natives). Trying to remove peoples' rightfully obtained guns is not the answer. Specially when those advocating controls have no interest in knowing the subject matter enough to discuss it.

More like (billionaire) Bloomberg funding Mom's demand.... as a front for disarming the public.

Just like coke flooding into LA ghettos (Iran-Contra), for one example, GV today is the crows coming home to roost. It's how the filthy rich keep people divided and down. No-knock warrants, Eminent Domain, Civil asset forfeiture, de-facto slavery alive and doing well in private prisons....

Something's gotta give. Disarming the public is where it usually starts.

Show me on the doll where the police beat you senseless

^ THIS.

This. ALB is my preferred airport but BDL works as well.

Unless it's the middle of the night, you won't catch me going in or out of Logan one more time. What a pain right in the arse. I have to fly monthly and sovt is easy for ALB or BDL.

ETA: I'd much rather take the train to NYC airports than deal with Logan AND Mass drivers. F that.

It's a whiteout

Don’t we need to include fiddleheads?

I do not understand the obsession with genitals. Clearly if someone is harassing another person - regardless of what genitalia they have - that conduct should never be acceptable. Persons with penises can harass other persons with penises, and people without them. Same for those with vaginas. Whichever locker room someone is in, is not going to change predatory behavior. People can always choose to change in private stalls if they so choose.

This said I do have a problem with persons who were born with XY chromosomes competing against people of XX chromosomes. You cannot tell me it would be a fair match between Katie Ledecky and Michael Phelps if he transitions into Michaela Phelps, for example. No. Full stop.

Have fun running away from your problems

Feel free to leave

That's way too much work. With a compass, a stopwatch and a really good road map, you don't actually need to bother removing snow from the windshield at all.

Is Killington still school choice? I thought they were part of the Woodstock district now…

An hour, right?

Yeah, this guy is an absolute cock.

Southern Vermont

Exactly why I try to head out early if I have to be somewhere after heavy snow. Gives me enough time to remove snow without being in a rush. Even if I don’t head out early and it takes longer than I’d like it to, it won’t stop me from removing the snow. At that point I just accept that I’ll be running late. It’s just not worth the risk.

My fav as well

Fucking grow up, chickenshit. You don't need a gun.

NEK resident here and I just have to add that it’s not a fair characterization to paint all of the NEK as being unfriendly to POC. There are some MAGA chud towns (as everywhere) but much more diversity-embracing energy from towns like Craftsbury, Greensboro, St. J, Glover, etc. Welcome to the OP - best of luck!

It doesn’t prove anything? California has the strictest restrictions, and their rates of gun violence are among the lowest in the country. Rural Wyoming has the third highest.

The point we should be looking at is why are we even debating gun laws at a state level? They’re meaningless.
