     Ratbuell |
Actually, Alf...it's a name I chose myself. I ride a ratbike - never wash it, always filthy but mechanically 100%. Rat bike...ratbuell. Nice try. Patrick - if you're putting brakes on the trailer, you'll need a 7 way plug. No brakes, just a 4 way will work. Trailers aren't required to have reverse lights so no legal need for the 5th pin. | ||

I suppose the frame weight of a smooth running blade guide calls for trailer brakes. Good call. Safer in the hills too. Even if I replace the traditional wood with composites or lightweight alloys. I've decided to go with electric screw jack to erect the frame and winch to raise the blade. I prefer manual, it's much better for the anticipation phase of crowd pleasing, ( and the synchronized calls, "heave, heave," build team support ) But I'm concerned that repetitive motion injury suits be avoided. It's going to be bad enough building in the safety guards OSHA will insist on.  ( Big red letter signs. "Pinch Point" and "Beware of spray". ) | ||

You'll need an additional wire so that you can operate it from the cab. No need to wear an executioner's hood...wear an F250. | ||
| Ratbuell |
Brakes are only required by DOT over a certain GVWR...anything over, I want to say, 3500#. Somehow I don't see yours going over that weight...don't add complexity and maintenance if you don't have to. | ||

Appears to vary by state. http://drivinglaws.aaa.com/tag/trailer-brakes/ This means that anti-death penalty states could ban your execution method by simply updating their trailer laws.  Example: "Any trailer based guillotine may have a maximum of four wheels, and must have brakes on all six wheels." Hey, there are laws on the books that make less sense than that. | ||

Alf said: "How come they call you Rat? Could it be that Personal attacks seem to be your forte." Pretty funny Alf, considering the content of most of your posts. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hypocri sy | ||

Hoot, First or second definition? | ||

The second. Like I posted. Just so there would be no confusion about what sort of funny you were talking about. Because I don't find it funny (first definition) at all. His antics are wearing thin. | ||

So the airlines are not allowing carry-on personal electronic devices on planes coming from certain Middle East and African nations. Why is this not a Muslim ban? I expect Chucky Schumer to start crying any minute. | ||
| Aesquire |
I thought the ban includes Europe. Which is still a Muslim ban. Just to refresh my/our memories, this is about explosive lap top batteries? Or bombs in laptops? Which brings us round full circle. This loss of ease in life is brought to you by Mohammed. Bringer of rape and war since 624. The snowflakes have no clue what a "Muslim ban" really is. They don't teach history anymore, they deconstruct it. Aka destroy & reinterpret. See Spain, great heroes of. | ||

No hypocrisy here. Count Court, with his blobular insight, attacked Me first; I pointed out Buell motorcycles were a poorly engineered pos. Like a dog wth a bone Continual attacks from that fat prick has evolved into me ceasing every opportunity to point out that his fat arse isn't qualified to authenticate jack shit. Needless to say the inevitable has prevailed. Buell is No more. That plus xos has evolved into xxxos. And, Buell is still a pos. | ||

How about the Trumpet bleating top secrets to the Russians? | ||

http://www.fox5dc.com/news/local-news/254852337-st ory Assassinated DNC staffer had ties to wikileaks.... just as wikileaks said he did. (this was the guy shot in the back of the head and left with no attempt to steal wallet, phone, watch, or anything. Clean, professional hit, right on the street in public ) Democrats kill their own. Truth tellers are traitors. | ||

And now Cali is going to spend 15M in taxpayer dollars, to fight the fed mandate for deporting illegals. Schools? Nah... Infrastructure? Nah... Deficit? Screw it, let's dig it deeper. We have to spend CITIZEN money to protect all the illegals! | ||

Alfau, Take your Colbertisms about fellow Badweb members and Buells to a different thread. This thread is about President Trump. I have defended you but there are boundaries, amigo. | ||

Re: secrets to the Eeeeeeeevil Russians. The complaint if I understand it, is Donald told the Russians about a terrorist threat that had "not been shared with allies". There is no doubt about the tell the Russians part. That's not a surprise, not a crime, not even stupid. After all they told the American press about the laptop threat too. ( one day later? ) It's not like you can hide the threat when you ban laptops on planes. People would ask why. We've been discussing the ban for days. No, the leak ALWAYS is pimped as "didn't tell our allies". With zero rationalization or proof. Could be true, could be bull. The Leak is alleged to be from the same anti-Trump anti-Bush sources that have violated the law for over a dozen years. ( and are pro-Clinton pro-Obama operatives by their lack of leaks on those pols ) I'm willing to bet English intelligence was told, quietly, long before Trump's public meeting with the Russians. The English probably told us in the first place. Conclusion. Total propaganda by the Klan Party. Naturally Alfau ate it up. He believes Stalin's agitprop and he's been dead for years. Several million murdered Russians ago. | ||

From what I have read, the info originally came from Israel. And to be clear, the president has the ultimate right to disclose secret information to whomever he chooses. Even the Democrats admit that. Come on Alfau grow up. do you come here to insult because you have nothing better to do? Get a job, get a hobby and take your hate elsewhere. | ||

Trump does have the right to disclose classified material to people of his choosing. I don't believe sharing information with another government, Russian or other, would make that material declassified. Leaking to the news papers what information was shared would be a crime however. Now this leads to an interesting situation that we have seen in recent months regarding classified leaks to the newspapers. While one would be risking a lot to leak true information, there is another possibility. The leaker may be spreading completely false information to the papers. If it's false, it's not classified. If it's not classified, they risk little. They certainly don't risk any sort of prosecution. It's also very difficult to prove it's a false story. It's the perfect dis-information piece. It allows you to forward your agenda, with very little downside. While I have no idea if this is what happened in this case, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. I forget the details of what "scandal" they did this on recently, but I do remember how it was all perfectly legal, and protected by our first amendment. Does anyone really think they wont repeat such an effective tool to cause grief for the Trump admin? | ||

So, we've established that the man can, in his position, divulge any information that he wants to any foreign or domestic party. Yet, the media refuses to go after the individual(s) that "leaked" the information, which is the actual crime. How many ways can this media bias play out? I'd love to say it's shocking, but it's more infuriating than anything at this point. I would be willing to bet that someone was doubling down on the recent Comey drama, had zero information whatsoever about what took place in that meeting with the Russian ambassador, but took a chance at what kind of a shitstorm it would create, and fed the lefty rag Washington Post a completely fabricated story because they knew they would run with it and every other hack excuse for a "journalistic entity" would pick up on it. The problem is...if chicken little cries wolf one too many times, at what point does everyone stop listening? | ||

Come on Alfau grow up How has this guy (Alf) not gotten a vacation from this board yet? Anywhere else I've ever come across - when you get into personal attacks, see ya!} | ||

You get all of the shit storm, but none of the jail time. | ||

There's more to the story too. Trump didn't have the kindest words to say about Jeff Bezos during the campaign, essentially accusing him of antitrust violations. For those of you that don't know, Bezos owns Amazon and the Washington Post. Now, I'm no conspiracy theorist, but the fix is in. The Post has been a hack reporting outlet that will publish anything and everything anti-Trump. Whether this latest "breaking news" is BS or not, it will take a lot of PR massaging to recover from it. | ||

Special Counsel time. This is going pretty quickly by Washington standards. | ||

I do find it interesting that Comey didn't complain about being pressured to drop an investigation until after he was fired. Would we have ever heard this accusation if he didn't get fired? There's a lot that seems questionable with all of this. Seems par for the course for Comey. | ||

Come took a page from J Edgar Hoover's book - Don't mess with me because I have a ton of dirt on you. Trump called his bluff and the shitstorm has begun. It matters not that the charges are spurious, when this attack fails another will be brought forth, ad nauseum, for however long it takes. This is war, gentlemen, I hope you are prepared. | ||

Trump's an idiot. I voted for him. I wanted to support the guy. But he just can't keep his mouth shut and every time anyone says something or does something he doesn't like he has to lash out like a jilted prom queen. Newsflash, when pretty much everyone in Washington doesn't like you, it's probably smart to keep your ducks in a row and not give them free ammunition. But that's all he does, give them Free Ammunition with one misstep after another. Good luck trying to get all of your major campaign promises done now. He'll be on the defensive forever. No Wall. No Repeal and Replace Healthcare and most importantly to me ... No Tax Reform. Well Done. Bravo. What a •••••••. Oh, and one more thing ... •••• all the Republicans who are far more interested in bickering with each other rather than actually coming together and leading and creating positive change for the Country. I have said over and over again that we are now living in an Oligarchy and they just proved it. They have no interest in letting go of any of their precious power. We're rotting from the inside. It's time to start over. | ||

The NYT announced the presumably top secret, die before reading, leak that Israel is the source of the illegal leak. Since the NYT identifies the source, they are endangering an ally and out relations hip with them. The NYT. The Criminal, traitorous NYT. And the owned by a guy who hates Trump, and Trump publicly shamed, Washington Post is the source of the story in the first place. We find ourselves in a bit of a quandary. Many of us are perfectly willing to believe any story about Donald being a horrible subhuman monster. Seriously, secretly eats children to stay young, believable. Cheats on his taxes, ( even though the IRS doesn't think so ) believable. Has been in secret contact with aliens and is going to sell out humanity? Believable. Except, the papers and propaganda companies telling us these things have a solid, provable, consistent, track record of being partisan hacks and outright liars. We literally cannot believe the weather report, much less political news. ( because the rain ruining tomorrows transphobic hate rally obviously is Trump's fault, and always Yours because you won't adopt a no ovo lactate free vegan diet. causing the seas to boil. ) So, IF Trump is really an alien loving monster who has a secret shrine to Hitler in every building he owns, ( and every one he's ever owned....the shrines are still there.... glowing ) There's half the country that would never believe it because Disney told us. Or that newspaper that insists it's not rape if the 4 men were immigrants. And they'd be right not to believe. And thus the leftist lying sacks that are the "Media" are making it easier for Trump to get away with the baby sacrifices to dark gods. The irony is dripping ink.. |
