They didn’t mess with out water supply. They tried to mess with our water supply. I know it happens all the time from various entities across the globe. Some are lone wolf attacks by citizens and some are sanctioned by governments. We have our own hackers too. I was merely pointing out the latest from Iran.
We don’t know for a fact that they tried to do any more than they actually did.
And this was “from Iran” only in a geographical sense. Cyber Av3ngers is a hacktivist collective, not a state agency.
It's a different culture there, but does this pertain to hunting?
I grew up on a farm in ND. I had a 22, a 410 and a 12 guage shotgun, all before I was 11 yrs old. I carried them around and hunted by myself on the farm all the time. As did my friends. Funny though, we rarely had any type of crime that happened, and people would leave their cars unlocked on main street with the keys in the ignition, along with keeping their doors unlocked to their homes, even when they left on trips. It was a different time and place.

I started listening to Rachael Maddows podcasts yesterday on my way to work. I started with Deja News. It’s stories about events that have happened in the past that are similar to events happening today. It was fascinating.
In 1939 there was an attempt to overthrow the government. In 1939 there was no TV happening. Everyone listened to the radio and in 1939 by far the most popular show was a Father Flannery or something like that. Long story short, he was a fan of Hitler and Mussolini and hated Jews and talked his followers into taking over the country and switching to an authoritarian government they would run and rid the country of all the undesirables. They stole weapons and ammunition, built bombs and did military training in preparation. The FBI was was watching and right before they were about to start the attack the FBI moved in and made arrests. It was front page news. They went to trial and were all acquitted. The Father leader guy said he had no idea who these people were and denied everything. There were mobs cheering on the defendants at the court house. The jury Forman was related to someone high up in the organization. The prosecution had tons of evidence and it mattered none. The only good thing that came out of it was that the FBI stopped the attack and the coup was foiled. Sound familiar?
In another episode she talks about how during the 60’s civil right movement Republicans hatched a plan to own the Libs by bussing Blacks to the north and dropping them off. They told them they would be meeting JFK and would be given jobs and housing. Turns out it was all a scam. Sound familiar?
To him, he was taking justice into his own hands, lol.

Didn't know where to put this. Check out this crazy video. A guy gets his parole denied, so he jumps the bench and attacks the judge. Scary!
Here he is now, looks like back in court, and they learned their lesson it seems.

The report coming out of Uvalde is pretty bad. The cops really blew this one, even worse than was originally known. And it's an even deeper indictment against the idea of easy access to automatic weapons.
