 in Aurora, Colorado next week. I’m driving. Between the physical and mental torture that flying has become and the fact I have zero faith in the people building, maintaining, and now even flying the planes, until something changes, my flying days are over.


Good choice.

I refuse to fly domestic anymore. I load my shite up in one of my trucks and maybe my wife's bulldog and drive.

#1 reason--I'm armed the while trip and at my destination.

I’m provided a vehicle allowance, fuel card, and I’m paid mileage. And I use to be a field rep, so spending all day behind the wheel of a pickup truck is something I’m both use to doing and quite comfortable with.

Before last summer, I use to fly frequently for business, at least 5-6 times a year. But the experience got to be absolute torture. Multiple times of being left stranded on tarmacs for an hour or more, twice in aircraft where the A/C either didn’t work or could not keep up, was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

I carry a gun in my car wherever I go. Hell, half of my coworkers bring guns to work too. When we finish up our shifts we’ll go out to our cars and compare each other’s guns. It’s the American Way .

Some of you people are more mentally soft than the biggest skyscreaming lib at an Antifa rally in Portland.
