Some of the most common types of trenches used during World War I. (1914-1918)

Watch this pompous, arrogant judge with his elitist attitude berate an IT worker who was trying to help him. Harris County, Texas Judge Nathan J. Million of the 215th Civil Court is facing criticism online after this video circulating on social media shows what a pr*ck he is.

Hezbollah is confronting Israeli soldiers. Iran is confronting American soldiers. And we're not confronting anyone... Our situation is truly sad . We'd accept anything, even British soldiers. Give us anything.

Nairobi has over 6 million people, but only about 2 million are working. How do the remaining 4 million survive?

Americans are not ready to watch sons and daughters hunted by FPV drones. Some may not like this post, and that’s OK. Some may see this as being a “panican,” and that is also OK. My tolerance for American blood being spilled is very, very low. But this needs to be said: If you have paid any attention to the war in Ukraine, you will know how drone warfare has escalated. You will have an understanding of the sophistication of the Ukrainians and Russians in their pursuit of hunting and killing each other with human-guided robots strapped with explosives. We know Russia and Iran share military ties; hell, the most common form of long-range standoff munition used to target Ukrainian infrastructure is an Iranian-designed Shahed drone. Now, are the Iranians as sophisticated as the Russians? No. But will a ground action result in grainy videos of Americans being hit by FPV drones? Almost certainly. Could the deployment of ground forces to the Gulf be a feint? Sure, it could be, but this point extends beyond Iran. The U.S. needs to be ready to counter the drone menace. I won’t pretend to know the inner machinations of the Joint Chiefs, the White House, or President Trump, but with the destruction of an E-3 Sentry on the runway, it has become absolutely clear the U.S. armed forces have not scaled their ability to handle drones. I don’t know what the answer here is, but I haven’t seen this point brought up at the frequency it deserves. It needs to be said. We are not ready for footage of American soldiers and Marines cowering in their last moments, set to some upbeat pop song or some cleric screaming praises to Allah.

PATENT BREAKDOWN: US 12,031,784. INVENTOR: Lawrence Demonico. FILED: 2021. STATUS: Assigned to ABC IP, LLC. The Super Safety is being accused of infringing this patent, more on that later. This patent is a modified version of the locking bar used in 10,514,223 (the original FRT-15 patent). The modification is to prevent the locking bar from interfering with zero-sear-trip-clearance bolt carriers, such as the LR-308. On the AR-15, the sear trip sits about 0.060” below the forward hammer cam surface, allowing the sear or locking bar to interact with the trip yet not interfere with the forward surface. The LR-308 sear trip is at the same height as the forward surface, there is no way for a sear to interact with the trip without interfering with the forward surface. To resolve this, a separately folding portion is added to the locking bar that has a one-way hinge and is spring biased into the upper extended position. This can be seen in Fig. 6 where the carrier (purple) is pushing forward on the deflectable portion (light green) and in turn rotating and unlocking the body portion (dark green). The small “step” between the two shafts is the one way hinge that transfers torque from the upper to the lower portions when rotating clockwise. Fig. 7 shows the carrier moving rearward. The deflectable portion folds to the rear, the one way hinge not transferring any torque to the body portion. This allows the carrier to pass to the rear, the upper portion deflecting from its path to avoid interference while not moving the body portion. The spring (brown) returns the deflectable portion to the extended position so that the trip surface can contact and actuate it. The key claim elements are: “… a locking member that is movable between a first position in which it locks a trigger member against pulling movement and a second position where it does not restrict movement of the trigger member…” And “… the locking member having a body portion that is movably supported and an upwardly extending deflectable portion that is separately movable relative to the body portion between an extended position and a deflected position.”
