Oh God I really hope we don't have to find out.

I'm inclined to say yes, because nobody can argue that the personnel needed for an election aren't essential.

And aren't elections held by the states for the most part?

Interesting question, the nuts and bolts of doing it are all handled by the states locally, I've no idea how calling it in the first place or the electoral collage would work under those circumstances. I'd bet nobody does.

I don’t know how you can keep posting in the CCW thread when you’ve got people seriously claiming the protestors were “terrorists” and how this guy was somehow not 100000% in the wrong for pulling his illegally carried gun on a crowd of unarmed teenagers.

Most DOD funding will expire on Sept 30, 2020 next year. I'd be very very surprised if the Dems passed a DOD funding bill but not any others. There will be a funded gov through the elections at least (or we'll have everyone on Foxnews saying how bad it is that the commissaries are closed).

I stopped carrying because everyone who does just holds onto that fantasy of being the good guy with a gun and getting to kill someone legally.

CCWs ought to come with a psych eval with frequent rechecks. It's insane how many people carry everyday that hope they get to use it.

I enjoy the extreme level of correlation between people going to bat for the gunman in that video and many (most?) of those same people having rap sheets with obvious racism probations.

It’s a very high level of correlation! Plus super racist veteran who posts about how he chooses to roll the dice and illegally carrying concealed is probably gonna make the news some day and it’d be nice if he were banned from SA before that, at least.

Strangely enough i only carry when i go to absolute shitholes like the hicktowns 30 miles from asheville and myrtle beach because there are northern plates on the work car. Charlotte and raleigh are fine. Fayettenam depends on how i feel that day. My buddy's roommate refuses to deal with his depression because hes afraid theyll say he's invalid to cc and he has massive hopes of "good guy with a gunning".

It's kinda weird seeing people talk about your home from another perspective. I'm 20 minutes from Asheville, the locals are nice enough but every now and then we get a nutter who worships Billy Graham that thinks I'm a tour guide that can get them into his old house or whatever.

Myrtle beach is poo poo though. Never going back there again. It's like a micro florida with a dash of SC armpit stank for good measure.

The only time ive ever felt skeeved out by people sizing me up was about 30-45 mins southwest of asheville and i was in oakland and the DC ghettos for a while. I have never been scanned that hard before

Edit: tbf to asheville working western texas was the area that convinced me to buy a carry gun because i got sick of people walking up on me out of my blindspot in parking lots with their hand on their gun to ask me about my job
