A friend of mine served with a top tier SoF unit, and came back with some psyche issues. Currently he’s a civilian contractor with the army. If he tries any kind of help from outside the VA, he’ll lose his clearance, his job, and his retire

CDC estimates 500k defensive gun uses (DGU) per year. Others put that number up over 2M. Even by the smallest estimates it is a non trivial number.

Yup. I failed the last one I had (I’m an SRE/ops guy). I realized the proper solution the next morning after sleeping on it. I just couldn’t pull it out of my butt in the 30 mins I had. Sux. I’ll get there one of these days.

In the mid 80s as a kid, I lived in Mountain View ca. A few miles from the Air Force satellite tracking station and moffet field. We knew we were getting a nuke if things went south.

No, beef cows make calves. The heifers are kept to make more calves. The males are castrated and get turned into beef.

Read what Boyd had to say about it. It was of value to MD and GE, but a good fighter it wasn't. Nor was it a good bomb truck. It kinda did both, but not well. The DoD of course, followed it on with the F-111 (thanks McNamara!) that

Why not keep an eye on the disk and expand the fs before it goes south?

I didnt say you had to beat the shit out of the dog when it didn't comply. It could be going into the 'negative punishment' quadrant, and with holding the dog's favorite tug.

by mgarfias 6y ago

Done right, koehler can work. Done wrong it’s abusive.

Maybe look at international competition, and see what kind of training everyone has converged on? There’s no one training Koehler in high level IPG (IPO/schutzhund) or one of the ring sports. I’m also not aware of actual LE/Mil do

Sure: Koehler is usually improperly applied, using compulsion. Koehler as practiced by Koehler is a very very slow method of training. Put the dog in a sit, put him in a sit again, and again, until he learns to sit. Ellis style is all abo

Oh god Koehler. Just no. If any of y’all reading this need dog operational training, seek out trainers that have gone to the Michael Ellis school for dog trainers, and use his methods. Wife breeds white Swiss shepherds, has been to a few of

I think this whole freak out is just dumb. It’s just a name. It needs an identifiable name be it Master, main, develop, hell you could call it beavis and it would mean the same thing. Or don’t. It just don’t matter.
