I'm sure it will, I'm not that interested. I find the fact that the site has been taken down more interesting than the possible content.

What I can't help wondering is - would a sidewinder missile actually be detonated by impact with or proximity to the thin fabric of a weather balloon?

I wonder if that's why an unexploded sidewinder fell into that lake when they did that. It's not that the sidewinder "missed" as such, it might have come close enough to take down an aeroplane but just didn't even notice the balloon. Might have even flown straight through it, popping the balloon but keeping flying.

It looks like we won’t have enough to arm the toddlers, but otherwise we have enough for everyone to be armed.
 
This priest officiated a wedding for a couple that had been together 20 years and had children. 6 months later the husband discovered the priest was having an ongoing affair with his wife.
Naera said he didn’t realise his affair with the married woman breached standards for ministers until her husband made it clear he would complain to the Ministry Standards Commission.
He continued the relationship with the woman, which the tribunal said suggested a “lack of insight” into the seriousness of the misconduct.

The church found Naera guilty of misconduct for breaching the requirement of chastity, which was to refrain from “adultery and fornication”.

Naera was told he would not be allowed to hold any office or ministry within the church for four years. If his position was restored he would need to undertake training in boundaries and attend regular supervision.

4 years?! The guy should be dead! And instead he's being stood down from his position for 4 years?! Guaranteed in 4 years he's going to be back and have absolutely no remorse for what he's done.

Priest performs wedding ceremony, then has affair with the bride

Reverend Pitotori Naera said he “didn’t know it was against the rules” when he began an affair with the bride - just months after officiating her wedding.

Here Are The World's Largest Private Collections Of Military Vehicles

There are people out there who own enough military machinery to run a small private army. Here are the world's largest military vehicle collections.

People even own tanks in New Zealand, there was even a place locally at one point where you could pay to drive a tank, though usually the guns have been deactivated. I do believe at least one man has managed to persuade the authorities that technically his firearms licence covered a tank as it was a single-shot firearm and nobody had thought to make a caliber restriction on the gun licences, so provided he locked it up in a "gun safe" (garage) separate to the ammunition, it was completely legal and technically no different to a .22... That was an old story though, and I don't know how true it is.

I mean according to 2nd Amendment with proper fleet/army armed with current weaponry, not private museum collection.

Private collectors own these things, not just museums. Several private collectors were noted in the articles.

I do not know of anyone who owns an F-22 and keeps it on their private airstrip but there are already some privately owned F-16 fighters:

I'd hardly class a company that is closely linked with the air force and owns F-16 fighters specifically for the purpose of training air force pilots in the US, Canadian and German air forces a "private" company. Sure they might be private technically, but there's a military reason they're allowed to have those planes (they're probably given specific legal exemptions to have them, import licences and so forth, based entirely on the fact they have military contracts). They're largely under the control of the State, and the moment a civil war broke out they'd be instantly nationalised.

For anyone that doesn't know, the basic gist of this is that the cops in Australia went to do a welfare check on a guy and it was an ambush. 2 were killed and 2 were injured, and 1 neighbour was killed also. This is a messed up family. There were two brothers and a wife, and the wife had been with one of the brothers then got divorced and married the other brother. The brothers' father is actually a pastor and they hadn't spoken to him in years. Their father said that what they did wasn't right at all, and he still didn't know why exactly they chose not to speak to him anymore.

Today this article has come out with an interview with the Deputy Commissioner, saying that they have declared this an Extremist Christian attack because these guys read the bible, made notes, and also believed that Christ was going to come back and rule for 1000 years.

They were worried about climate change and social disparity? These were leftists. They were most likely marking up a Bible to criticize it. Vast swaths of Christianity are pre-millenial.
 
Here's a thing:

I've noticed that the majority of people who post religious commentary on You Tube seem to believe that everyone else has two to eight hours to sit and listen to their epic commentaries. I won't even start listening to something if it means I have to devote more than an hour to it. Aside from Friday nights with the family I never watch movies for this reason. Even movies I would like.

While I appreciate that some messages will take hours and hours to communicate I dearly wish some of these people would post a few shorter videos for those of us who have a life. I really am interested in what these folks have to say but I simply don't have all day to commit to this.

Thanks!

I listen to stuff while I'm doing other things. For example, Peter's videos, which are often more than an hour long lol.
I'll put one on while I'm sitting at the table folding washing. Then I'll pause it while I call everyone inside and get them to put their clothes away, and I put away other items. Then I'll turn it on again while I'm working on dinner. Then I'll sit down with a cup of tea and finish it off.
It's not hard, because it's going in the background while I'm doing other things. What's harder for me are ones where the children can't overhear it, if it's a sensitive topic. Then I need to find the time to just sit down and watch it.

I love Mr Rambo's videos in the background while I'm cleaning or walking the dog.
