I am positioning myself to do just that. Also positioning myself to never return/move back.

Nothing like open carry to make tourists from other places feel safe in the USA

I love Richard Wolf, he gets it right on the US decline. I trust the BBC, not any American sources. This will get ugly. Not buying flight tickets any time soon. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx27z97ryr0o From the article... US air travelers are experiencing a second day of flight delays and cancellations, as the government shutdown causes a worsening shortage of air traffic controllers. On Tuesday evening, the flight delays hit even more airports, with the cities of Nashville, Dallas, Chicago and Newark especially affected. On Monday, air traffic control at the Hollywood Burbank Airport in California was unmanned for nearly six hours and remotely managed due to staffing shortages. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said some air traffic controllers are calling in sick as the shutdown, now in its seventh day, adds stress on workers. He estimated that staffing has at times dropped to 50% in some areas.

The wheels are going to come off of our society, this time for good. We have reached a uniqee state of stupidity as a country. Kimmel gets it right.

I have lots of rural liberal woodworking friends, they have guns because police are 20 minutes away and they will be dead if they call and wait for help. A blast in the air from a shot gun has put more than one wanna be out of a friends driveway.

And I think in some ways that California's laws are too strict. My uncle does a lot of search and rescue, and other work assisting local law enforcement. He is in a ham radio club, and they have a volunteer group of some sort. he has indicated to me that more firepower in rural areas might really be wise to protect against wild animals. Not sure how rational this claim is, but it makes sense to me. We have bigger problems than gun ownership. It actually ranks fairly low in my mind in terms of problems that society faces.

In terms of the culture of gun ownership, my idea...increase the number of female gun owners. Men and Women need each other in some sort of existential way, and I think things work better when you have both men and women involved in anything, be it a work place, hobby, church group or whatever. Guns are also an interesting place where you could have marksmanship competitions of whatever sort on a fairly level playing field, which would actually bring us together in a common cause. I am hugely in favor or regulated gun ownership, and a ton of folks owning guns, be they whatever type. Right now though, anyone pretty much can get anything willy nilly. Maine Narrow gauge Museum. In terms of Guns, I am liberal AF but I like Colin Noir. He uses facts and logic, and makes sense with what he writes and posts on youtube. An armed society is a polite society. But a responsibly armed society. With constitutional limits on government. Right now, government over reach is probably the biggest issue, it isn't civilian.

Wife in a cupola of a caboose, Maine Narrow guage museum. Very fair. Its interesting in that I don't think much can be done about it in America. We probably have over a billion guns here, and we have something like 20 Million AR 15's. Its amazing that the failure rate for Gun ownership is so LOW, given that humans are an inherently unstable species mentally and emotionally. This forum is proof of that claim. 2 major mass shootings with AR 15's a year is something like a one in eight million rate of failure. You are not going to get the other 20 million AR 15's out of the hands of enthusiasts. My vote, change the culture to one of responsible gun ownership.

Amazing number of Older American trucks on the road up there. I really like pickups of the 80s and 90s, as well as their earlier cousins. The woodworker in me loved this bench/stool at a local eatery. My camp site on Hermit Island directly over looked the Atlantic, it was Epic.

Water changes color as you Hike Cutler, notice the green. You do about 2 and a half miles right along the Atlantic right along the cliff, its amazing. As beautiful as anything I have hiked in America, although Cloudlands Canyon in Georgia is still my favorite. Far East Corner of the continental united States. The true eastern most point is in Alaska on an Island, where America runs so far west it becomes East. Yes, I drank a made in America beer for once, it was fantastic. I still love once in awhile getting a local brew. Fat guy out hiking... Neat old Wagoneer I found out in the wild, interesting amount of vintage stuff on the road in Maine. Acadia lighthouse...

From the information card on the green woodie. 1941 Pontiac. If Balthazar was here I could mis identify it as a Plymouth to create a fire storm. Nothing to see here, just a middle aged couple from Ohio Hiking. More Acadia Goodness... More Acadia... Cutler Nature preserve, Northern Maine. Cutler, more beautiful than the photos show. Very remote, lots of solitude and a place to think.

Original tool kit for your model T Ohio built! The woodworker in me loves this. The car is almost as pretty as my wife! Actually, this Model A woodie was one of my favorite cars at the Museum. More woodie goodness...
