Yup, it's a scam. You will never get such a text from official channels.

Thanks for the follow up but you have to give them your E-mail to read it. I'm glad that they dropped all of the charges and let him go if he paid damages to the drone. The Lake County Sheriffs Department deserves a little credit also for playing it cool. Lake County is a 2nd Amendment sanctuary county also.
I had to laugh when he said "I can't breathe, I can't breathe."

Those are very specific tools for building, I doubt that’s a random theft. Someone you know had a hand in it. Keep your ears open for someone building a new hunting camp somewhere. Ask around a bit later this summer when things cool down and see if someone’s brother in law is building a camp or a new garage. Someone you know has a good idea where your tools went. Hope you find em !!!!
That was my thought also. Don't know about building a camp but someone knew exactly what was in the shed, how to get in the shed without being noticed and how to haul away the loot without being seen. IMO, it's someone who's been to the house and seen what was in the shed.

Self checkout with ammo? The Walmarts I go to I have to pay back where they have the ammo. I go to 2 different ones.
Most of the WM's here have all of the ammo locked up behind the counter. There are two or three that the shotgun ammo is out in the open where you could put them in a cart and pay for them at self-checkout but it's considered a "restricted" item though and must show ID to the associate doing nothing with the cell phone in their hand. The locked up ammo must be paid for at the sporting goods counter.

I call my Dad "Dad".
I call my step-father by his first name and have ever since I was about 6 or 7 years old.
I called my Mother "Mom".
I call my step-mother by her first name and have ever since I was 12 or 13 years old.
When talking with people outside of the family, my step-parents are addressed as step-father and step-mother. I mean no disrespect for either and neither consider it disrespect.

I manage a large company that supplies an everyday staple to grocery stores including Walmart. They make you jump through so many hoops its ridiculous, we had to follow rules that they themselves do not follow. But what I really hate is dealing with one of their competitors whose logo may be something you would shoot at.
They put is through an ethical audit every 3 years. Another 3rd party hired by them shows up and looks through all your employees records. They also interview random employees to see how we treat them.
One year I lost my temper during the inspection, I asked the auditors of they go to China or Taiwan, of course the said no. I asked them how much the employees that make all the crap clothes make per hour, they don't know. I asked them how much the employees of this national chain store make per hour, how much vacation time, how their benefits are, still no answer.
Their audit stated that they disapprove that my employees work so much overtime!
I told them:
This is a Union shop with Teamster pension, starting pay is twice that of a worker at their store. BCBS Insurance for $25 per week and it is a 90/10 plan with a $1200 deductible. and a $2400 max out of pocket, DOUBLE TIME on Saturday and Sunday and TRIPLE TIME on holidays!
AND all the overtime is voluntary!
I figure its a numbers game where they can say that they inspect a certain number of their suppliers to make sure they are treating their employees right and they all snuggle up in their blankets at night, made in a sweatshop by a 10 year old who works 20 hours a day and pays rent to sleep on the floor.
I won't even set foot in a "Bullseye" store and haven't for well over 20 years.

After reading this I’m OFFICIALLY done with WalMart!
https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/world/maga-vs-walmart-heiress-christy-walton-asks-americans-to-attend-no-kings-day-protest-on-trump-s-birthday/ar-AA1GvTzvNot defending WalMart, but I doubt alienating Trump supporters is on WalMart's to-do list.
Every family has (at least) one a*****e in the family. The Walton family isn't any different!
Hell, look at Trump's sister!

The first time I came across that - Atlanta, maybe 15 years ago - I let them inspect my purchases. Because I was shocked.
The next time they told me they need to check my purchases I ignored them and continue to push my buggy out the door. Once I have paid for that stuff, it becomes mine, and therefore it is nobody's business.
At Sam's club I let them look. Because I agreed to that when I joined Sam's club.
But I have not agreed to that at Walmart or Kmart or Target or Big lots or Lowe's or home Depot or any other place. As long as it's their merchandise, they can look at it. Of course, if they stopped me to look in my buggy while it was still their merchandise I would walk away and leave the buggy full of merchandise there.
But once I paid for it it is mine, and ain't nobody got any business looking at it.
Meanwhile Mr. Gangbanger strolls by with 8 cases of beer in his cart.
That's what happened to me. I
'mpretty sureguarantee that the supposed "greeter" did not like my response to his implication that I was a thief.-

Walmart here has their ammo discontinued.
Still plentiful here, if you can find the authorized 'associate' that has the key to the ammo cases. Prices are basically the same as all of the on-line retailers with (maybe) a little off shipping.
PRO SHOPPING TIP - If you want to get immediate service at the ammo counter, go behind the counter and look in the case...I guarantee an 'associate' will be with you very shortly.

That there is where one experiences the ULTIMATE PUCKER FACTOR!!
Only if you go across it.

I've often wondered about the dust from the lead impacting sg targets. In a windy area, like Wyoming, one can feel the dust blowing back off the targets.
Not only the lead dust, but the dust from the ground also. That ground has had an untold amount of lead imbedded in it. There has been some days that I blew my nose after the match that the snot came out black from the dirt and dust. That couldn't have been healthy. The people resetting SG targets, the shooter and the TO were affected the most by the dust.

The Eastern Indigo (black snake) and the Black Racers used to intertwine in my chain-link fence at a house I used to have. Sometimes they were mating and other times singular snakes were shedding their skin. I found a 7' snake skin in the fence one time.

What are the odds that they would find Alpo?
Well, he does live in Florida so that increases the odds!
Of course it was Florida, where else would they go to seek out intelligent life forms.

Well, it appears that we won't be going to the movies today. Mrs. Sun isn't feeling good and doesn't want to go.
