    Ammunition control?

    Based on what they did to Audry Hudson (and Michael Hastings), that's their goal. Read about Michael Hastings from the conservative angle of WorldNet Daily here: Mystery grows: Journalist died prepping Obama exposé and from the angry 99 percent liberal angle of Occupy.com here...

    the muti carrier driver push

    Eclipse never had common carrier authority (which required both liability and cargo insurance), but they did at one time have contract carrier authority (granted 02/28/11, involuntarily revoked 08/05/13). Contract carrier authority only requires liability insurance. On October 1 of 2013, the...

    Ammunition control?

    You'd think that, but no. SWAT raids began as rarely used methods of dealing with violent situations, like hostage-takings. But government always grows. In the 1970s, there were about 300 SWAT raids per year. Now it's about 150 per day, give or take. From the Rise of the Warrior Cop -...

    I addressed it in Post #4. That should have ended it and cleared up any confusion. Everything after that was overboard, and it was your doing.

    Sirius loosing signal near/around city

    Then it's probably the receiver itself. If it's an older receiver, more than a year or two, then it's probably a case of it not being able to pull in the reduced bandwidth of about 35 stations that had their footprint reduced when Sirius and XM Merged their signals on the satellite. But some new...

    Everyone who has access to a smartphone and the EO app has access to the Internet and a Web browser. A smartphone is a computer that also happens to make phone calls using a phone app. And it doesn't matter what the average person would think The Loading Dock was about, they wouldn't have to...

    Incorrect. We are talking about someone who failed to learn about the forums in which they participate, and about someone who admitted as much. I'm not perfect, nor have I ever claimed to be. I make mistakes all the time. I generally learns from them, though. Still no. They are used to convey a...

    That's fine. I understand. Just don't bіtch and moan and then plead ignorance when you get nailed for doing something ignorant. Because... you can fix ignorance, but you can't fix stupid. If you prefer to remain ignorant, well that's just stoopid.

    Sirius loosing signal near/around city

    Is the Sirius radio connected directly to the audio (or AUX) IN of the radio, or is it communicating with the radio via the FM transmitter? If it's communicating via the FM transmitter, they go bad and get even weaker than they are. When you get near large cities, where there are lots of FM...

    Nope. The EO app, and the Tapatalk app upon which it is based, is designed to give a unified interface for mobile devices for access to Web Internet forums across multiple forum software applications. It is not designed to have the same full features as a Web browser, nor give you the same...

    We just got through establishing that this is not The Soapbox, yet you immediately proceed with a Soapbox discussion. In the words of a famous resident moron, "Seriously?" Here is the description for the Loading Dock forum: Come on into this forum and relax! The Loading Dock is dedicated to...

    Thank you. :) A lot of latitude is given in The Soapbox for going off topic and hijacking threads, even heated arguments, but not so much in the other forums.

    Shady Jimmy Haslam, Owner of Pilot Flying J, To Recieve Award

    I'm not sure why a federal investigation should render impotent or irrelevant everything you're done for your alma mater. The Distinguished Alumnus Award is given to graduates who have "excelled in their field on the national or international stage and have brought credit to UT." Stealing from...

    That may very well be the case, which is why my initial reply specifically addressed the differences between the two. Which is precisely why I don't believe his was a honest question, especially in light of his response to my initial reply, which was a continuing effort to start a Soapbox...

    No one said you did. Let me put this so that even you can understand it... The Loading Dock is a forum where people can discuss faith. The Soapbox is a place where you can voice your opinions on religion. Do not confuse the two. The questions you asked are questions that necessarily...
