All I can muster is a facepalm.
Those two asshats make me real angry

Seriously, that's the bill that gets y'all riled up? It's a shit messaging bill. There's quite a few other bills that were signed that are significantly more detrimental.
The GSL mining bill got un circled and passed today. That's good news.
Don't worry, there's one day left in the session. Nothing ever happens on the last day..... ;)
The bill giving $1 million to the fuckwad developers of the Kane Creek abomination to create awareness about workforce housing is a special kind of Utarded fuckery. Kael Weston’s brother is one of the developers.
I love my Utah friends and enjoyed the vast majority of my time there, but goddamn that place is a special kind of fucked.

So.... what you're saying is a legislature full of developers is giving money to developers.Quote:

The gravel pit bill was a step too far, b/c a bunch of hillbillies might make a pit next to some future fancy houses….but yeah, give a cool mill to some rich guys building luxury units on Kane Creek.

I'm not sure the gravel pit bill is dead yet. There are actually 3 bills. 172, 303, & 502. It's been a shell game. I betcha one will make an appearance tomorrow.Quote:

Hahahha. You actually think cops and soldiers get thousands of hours of training to be able to carry a firearm? Got any source for that? Special forces gets thousands of hours of firearms training. Cops maybe get a couple dozen. Most soldiers that carry a firearm but won't be expected to use it on a daily basis, are a lot closer to the training cops get than the amount spec ops guys get.Quote:

Seriously, below that, and they have decided its not worth the trouble of trying to teach you anything and they dont even want you.
The more things change, the more they stay the same....Quote:

Spending time at the sportsmans caucus this year was eye opening as there are some that are clearly angry, and only trying to do the ‘right thing’ for financial contributors or industry, and others that really care. I’m buckling up for today.

Crews detonate ‘ancient dynamite’ sticks found in Holladay home
https://ksltv.com/639565/crews-deton...holladay-home/
Apparently a substantial amount of dynamite passed down a few generations. I was cruising around on the bike yesterday heading to Big Cottonwood and ran into a closed street with multiple emergency vehicles, a giant ops tent, full gridlock. This was in one of the nicest neighborhoods in the valley btw...
generational dynamite? we don’t see much of that in the upstates…
Generational wealth takes on a different meaning when it ends up blowing up the house the kids are hoping they'll inherit.Quote:

I’m no explosives expert but it doesn’t sound like the bomb squad fellas they had on hand for this one are either.

Grandpa used to be on a road construction team. He left it down to his son, who left it down to his son.Quote:

Once they start bleeding you don’t want to be moving that shit. Way better to cook them off in place. Better a controlled demolition than an unexpected detonation in transit.

That’s one of the nicest neighborhoods in utardville?

Was gonna amend my OG post to clarify. Some of the nicest houses in the valley are nearby. That particular house does not make the list, and it's not much worse now than it was before it blew up :DQuote:
