    A Deeply Fractured US

    Daily carry is a real thing for a lot of Americans. They simply don't leave the house unarmed, irrespective of their plans for the day. Perhaps you meant when in a city with confrontational armed law enforcement officers...

    That was in Fall 06. I was part of the BOI - after 8.5 months in theatre, I had one month at home, then back into theatre for another month and then 2 more finishing the report, debriefing family etc.. The US SOF killed one of ours, injured 4, and also killed two americans...all in less than...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I was using truck as an exemplar of equipment...and it is essentially a "dollar cost averaging" approach to keeping fleets and suites up to date. For common / high density-moderate cost items the 10 year cycle of course could be repeated, with a plan to divest 8 per month once full capability...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I have oft opined that we need to stop buying 1000 trucks every ten years, and buy ~8 per month for 10 years....especially given that equipment is increasingly software rather than hardware defined....

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    Race can surely not be sufficient justification to detain someone without any other cause, or indeed a warrant?

    A Deeply Fractured US

    Is that a serious question? The real world isn't an intellectual problem. It is affected by intent, method, personal animus, animal spirits, force ratios, political retribution etc. Shooting a Mom in the face certainly may have had an influence on local response. The feds outnumber the...
