The 1st Amendment only applies to the Government not restricting freedom of speech. It does not apply to employers. It never has.

That comment just proves you have no idea what the Constitutional right to free speech means. There are many other workplace protections for employees, but the 1st amendment right to freedom of speech is not one of them.

I asked my girl if I was her only one. She replied "yes, you have been my only 1, the rest have all been at least an 8 or 9"

Exactly. A nude female is a beautiful natural thing, But if god had meant for men to be seen nude he wouldn't have given them hairy butts. Says so in the bible: Perversions 4:13

Despite being on the other side of most of your posts I find that hilarious. Good job sir!

Great news. Maybe they can reserve space for all the corrupt liberal judges that need to be locked up also.

Similar to my banking history. I have had accounts with four different banks but only opened an account with one of them I have only opened one account. It was on a 30 day visa exempt entry. 2001 - Opened account with Bangkok Metropolitan Bank 2003 - Account transferred to Siam City due to takeover 2011 - Account transferred to Thanachart Bank due to takeover 2021 - Account transferred to TMBThanachart Bank due to merger

Doesn't matter. An employer can fire someone for actions outside of work. Happens regularly.

It doesn't apply in the workplace. It never has.

I didn't mean it as regulatory approval. I meant the Sheriff approved of shooting intruders. Our Sheriff (or maybe it was the previous one) made videos encouraging residents to shoot anyone caught breaking into their homes.

This is a Sig Sauer P938, a great small 9mm for concealed carry. Fits perfectly in the side pocket of cargo shorts.

These are my house guns (in the US) . The suppressors (Silencers) are easy on the ears when shooting intruders. Glock 19 (9mm) and Ruger Mk IV 22/45 (22. Cal). Approved of, and encouraged by, the Sheriff of Santa Rosa County Florida.

I can read. Can You? You left because of the failed policies of your Dem leaders.

So you are obsessed with complaining about Trump but you actually left because of the policies of Clinton. Obama, and Biden.

The war between Israel and the Gaza Government has nothing to do with genocide. Well, maybe if you change it to the people of Gaza want to commit genocide of the Israelis.

But the lefties define "Genocide" is making people that support terrorism move to another country. Israel doesn't want them all dead, they just want them all gone. They don't care anything at all about the ones outside Israel.

When you open the link, the information they post at the top of the page is all completely false. Company seems to be a complete scam targeting the gullible. And to answer your question, No, a tax clearance cert is not required. It's possible that could change, and if it does it will be major news

No

After the atrocities committed by the Gaza government I don't think they deserve any of those.

So yes — we’re totally on the same page when it comes to your statement: “Here is a pic of an M117 bomb that I disposed of in Laos a few years ago.” What’s harder to reconcile is the first statement you made: “I can tell you from personal experience that that bomb IS NOT an M117 750 lb Bomb.” That shifts the conversation from handling ordnance in the field — something I absolutely respect — to interpreting a bomb from a photo, which is a different kind of expertise. Working with bombs directly and identifying them in images are two different challenges. Take the photo from the article, for example. The bomb in that image looks about the length of a person — nowhere near 2 meters. But that’s probably due to lens distortion, especially foreshortening or perspective compression. These effects can really change how large or small an object looks in a photo. So I totally understand your reaction — especially if you’ve worked directly with these weapons. But in this case, I think the issue isn’t about bomb disposal knowledge. It’s more about how easily our eyes can be tricked by the camera, especially when we don’t have a clear reference for scale. Now, let’s look at the great photo above — it’s a perfect example of foreshortening in action. Here’s what’s in the image: Foreground: A row of M117 bombs, recognizable by their: Long cylindrical bodies Single lifting lugs on top Rounded noses and square tail fins Background: T-28 Trojan aircraft, commonly used during the Vietnam War What makes this image fascinating is how the same type of bomb can appear both too short and too long, depending on where it is in the frame: The bombs closest to the camera look big, thick, and dominant — but to some, they may seem shorter than they really are because of the angle and lens distortion. The bombs farther away start to look more accurate in shape — longer and sleeker. The perspective stretches the row, making the whole scene feel deeper and larger than it is. This is the paradox of foreshortening: It can make objects look compressed up close and stretched out in the distance — all in the same photo. That’s why identifying bombs from photos is so tricky. Even experienced EOD professionals can misjudge what they’re seeing if there’s no clear size reference — like a boot, a person, or a measuring stick. In your original photo, the M117s look shorter than they really are — maybe around 1.5 meters — but we know from technical specs that they’re actually 2.06 meters long. So again, thank you for sharing your image. It’s a great example of how easily photos can distort reality — and why context, perspective, and reference points matter so much. You seem to know a lot about photography but nothing about ordnance. The photo you just posted is of a bunch of Mk 80 series LDGP bombs. They are not M117's, which have a very different shape. And they have two lugs for attaching to the bomb racks, they are not "lifting lugs". And the type of tail fin is irrelevant as they can use different types of fins.

I can tell you from personal experience that that bomb IS NOT an M117 750lb Bomb. The M117 is short and stubby compared to the Low Drag Mk 80 series bombs. Her is a pic of an M117 bomb that I disposed of in Laos a few years ago.

I think assuming they live longer would be incorrect. I think the people you describe would tend to die earlier due to depression.

Wow, totally unhinged rant. Nothing to do with the topic. You should get yourself checked for rabies.
