From a pathological point of view, autoerotic asphyxiation is not an uncommon form of suicide.

See David Caradine as an example.

GIGO.

The journal of urban health is a nonissue in my field.

(Medicine).

The reason there is so little public health gun research now is because the CDC and NIH got caught making up their research to get a pro gun control result.

The point being made is that TX and OK are trying to infringe on the exercise of free speech between the doctor and the patient. TX wants to have anyone who does an EAB on a woman, even if it is not in TX, as long as the woman is a TX resident, to be legally liable in TX. MN just passed a law saying...

As to the gun injury thing reducing the numbers… statistically, we are at a nadir of violent crime and accidental shootings are at all time lows… so why the push for more restrictions?

Being in the medical field, the last thing you want is it being treated like public health. Suffice it to say, it becomes controlled by a group of politically activist academics who are not allowed to be questioned using flawed statistics to make poorly supported claims. The CDC and NIH were banned ...

Well, I guess that’s a way to liven this place up! I don’t disagree that there are some reasonable democrats out there. But to imply that the divisiveness is mostly one sided is farcical. The democrats in the 50’s and 60’s were pretty willing to tolerate differences under their big tent. So was the ...

I’ve been kind of looking for one of those for a while…

My .470 needs a little brother, lol!

Remember that impeachment is a political remedy. No need for guilt or rule of law. If they can get 50%+1 in the house to vote for charges, and a majority in the senate to impeach, you are gone. The whole abortion issue is contaminating the public discourse. The Dems want to get a SCOTUS majority in ...

Depends on what weather you will be using it in, what game you are hunting, style of hunting, and cartridge being used along with personal preferences. For big game, warm conditions I like 3.5-5# crisp. For cold conditions with gloves, I tend to want increased firing pin impact on the primer, so the...

Faribault has a NRA requirement as well- due to buying range insurance through them, I think. My issue with all of the gun lobby groups is the payment of executives. The NRA is the rotten apple of the bunch, but they all probably pay their leadership well and give bonuses. LaPierre is a problem. If ...

Recall is one thing, referendum and initiative another.

Frankly, my view on recall is driven by the absolute unwillingness of the political class to police itself.

Side match at Faribault IDPA matches.

I haven’t had any issues with LSWC ammo, but then I have never tried it in an older gun. I have a vet’s WWII 1911. Maybe Cobb and I should get together and try his and my guns with various ammo. USGI 1911 Colt series 80 gold cup Wilson combat high grade from the 90’s Para ordinance early P14-45 Kimb...

I guess I don’t get the ban.

The app/program are there and the Russians have it.

It’s not removing the app from availability in the Ukrainian war.

At best, it’s stopping the author from getting some minimal income from US users.

Seems fundamentally ineffective as a sanction.

The ammo manufacturers have improved things as well. I had a great deal of trouble decades ago getting the Speer 200 gr JHP (aka the flying ashtray) feeding in most of my 1911’s. I’ve had no issues with the new federal hydrashoks or Winchester ranger ammo in the last 10 or so years. Both improved bu...
