  1. 7 years of going after Trump. It’s been an obsession of the left. He should have made good on the “lock her up” and not backed off. On the flip side if she didn’t get prosecuted why should Trump? All this shits a distraction anyway like @Bobalossaid. There’s bigger plans the government is making behind our backs.

    Instead of exploring this idiotic reparations crap how about we put an end to the career welfare recipients. Food stamps, section 8 housing, phones, monthly checks etc…

    How about you get a job and support your family instead of just expecting the working class to do it for you. 
    Being a lifelong leach on society should not be a career 🤬🤬

    To piggy back off of this….. All these hand outs to all these women with multiple baby daddy, cash,food, housing etc. meanwhile the old people who worked their ass off their whole life paying taxes, buying homes, investing in their kids education are expected to exhaust all their savings and sell their homes before the government will agree to give them medical assistance. F the system. Rant over

    ShadePro. They're only mobile. I know of several family  members and friends that have used them and have been very happy with the service. Their pricing is reasonable too.

    I just used shade pros. Came to the house and had a new awning installed in less than 2 hours

    I’ve abused mine, no issues so far. If they break, no big deal since they’re rope, not cable.

    I put a zip tie over the loop end with the end pointed straight out so you can easily feed it through an existing 3/4” D ring mount. 

    Good to know. I will order a set and kinetic rope from rhino

    I've completely converted to soft shackles and synthetic winch rope for this reason.  That chit is SCARY when it lets go, lots of physics involved.

    1. Always use a recovery shackle attached to a sufficiently strong recovery point.  
    2. Always wrap a towel or something heavy and made of fabric or similar material to the middle of the recovery strap or winch rope.
    3. Always use a recovery rope or strap, with ropes being much safer and easier on parts.  Tie downs are NOT for recovery.  I never use anything with metal hooks on the end.  If I need to connect more than one, I use a soft shackle, not a D ring (which makes a good projectile if the rope breaks). 
    4. Always assume the recovery devices will fail and move people clear.  This includes your buddy trying to "guide" the winch rope onto the drum to keep it neat.  Unwind the rope and wind neatly when you're not trying to move a 5 ton vehicle.
    5. Always pay attention to working load ratings on your recovery equipment.  Yanking out a buddy's diesel pusher and stacker with your 10,000lb rated D rings?  Expect fireworks.

    I'm sure there are other lessons and rules, but this is what I like to adhere to at a minimum.  

    A recovery shackle mount in the hitch should be fine.  Safety chain mounts would likely result in tears.

    Either way, make sure to put something heavy on the strap/rope to keep it from becoming a rocket.  

    This is the first time I’ve heard about soft shackles. Are the equally as robust as the typical shackles we use? I like the idea of it if it can be strong enough to help pull out a guy with a truck and a trailer together.This is the first time I’ve heard about soft shackles.

  6. I wonder if the family lawyer finds a dr that would testify if the kids would have had aid rendered to them sooner the chances of survival would have increased would change the charges over to manslaughter or involuntary manslaughter.

  7. I love Pismo, one of my favorite places. I buy a silt fence to wrap around the trailer. Once that ocean wind gets to howling it’s hell on the stabilizer and tongue jacks and your trailer will be out of whack real quick. Splash cafe, Brads and Sylvester’s.
