    That can be defined a few different ways.

    I choose to define it as those who choose not to exercise certain Constitutional rights out of fear that it may offend, and in turn look down on and chastise others who do. Many of this type of person also fits into the “fudd” category, and take a “don’t care” type of attitude toward 2nd Amendment infringements because they don’t own those “evil black rifles” and never would.

    I’m reminded of a certain post-WW2 poem by Martin Niemoller because there are similarities here.

    First they came for the MG’s and I didn’t speak out because I did not own one. Then they came for the AR-15s and I did not speak out because I did not own one. Then they came for the shotguns and bolt actions.... and no one was left to speak out.

    That’s pretty cool. Surprisingly some of the schools around here are encouraging shooting sports again. Trap shooting etc. when I took hunter safety, the high school I went to had a shooting range under the school. Quite a few years ago it was dismantled. Lately I’ve been hearing people talk about revitalizing it.

    6pm at night and I’m literally the only truck in the lot. There about a dozen spots here and usually 3/4 full by this time of night. Nothing this week. Only going to get down to the low 30’s tonight. IMG_6946.jpeg IMG_6947.png

    The hood on the left is heavily damaged and showed up sliding around on a pallet bouncing off the trailer walls. It came from Four State Trucks in Joplin.

    The one on the right is crated properly. A minor scuff or two but nothing serious. Came from Kenworth in Salt Lake City.

    Do with that information what you will. PXL_20231130_005554945.jpg

    Hate to wake them up, but they are parked in a no parking zone, and blocking me from getting out without hitting the blue W9 on my right. Some say we have issues with lack of parking out here…. crazy
