Likely to be Enacted US Bill That'd be a Win for Sportsman and Outdoor Recreation Broadly | Explore Act - Lemmy.World
Haven’t seen much coverage on this so I figured I should share the word. The Explore Act has passed the House and the Senate with massive bipartisan support. The bill will benefit bikers, rock climbers, shooters, OHRV operators, & more. It has special provisions to encourage access to the outdoors among people with disabilities, veterans, and the youth. It seeks to establish new range access on federal lands, like national forests (see sec. 123). Ranges would have facilities for rifle and handgun shooting, and may include accommodations for archery and trap shooting.

Decorated Powder Horn (1775) - Lemmy.World
This powder horn was property of John Calfe a Captain in the Continental Army during the American Revolution. Calfe was from New Hampshire but this horn was from his time serving in what today is Vermont. He was stationed at Mt Independence across the lake from Fort Ticonderoga until July of 1777. It reads: “What I Contain Shall Freely Go: To Bring a Haughty Tyrant Low.”

The rifle uses a small, unique, and well designed part called an Obturator (obturator/ignitor) to compress the air as it is pushed through a tiny hole. This air is heated as it is pushed through the small hole enough to ignite the powder of the caseless round. >The V/L guns and ammunition were discontinued in 1969 after the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives ruled that they constituted a firearm, and Daisy, which was not licensed to manufacture firearms, decided to discontinue manufacture rather than become a firearms manufacturer. About 23,000 of the rifles were made before production ceased.
What does your country/government do well?
Non-Americans of Lemmy, what does your country do to protect the rights of criminal defendants?
Non-Americans of Lemmy, what does your country do to protect the rights of criminal defendants? - Lemmy.World
American law outlines a series of protections for those accused of crimes but not yet convicted. (Like the 4th-6th amendments) Does your country have any unique/novel protections of the rights of potentially innocent people accused but yet to be convicted? If not are there any protections you think should be in place?

[US] National Constitution Day / Citizenship Day (Sept 17th) - Lemmy.World
>To honor the timeless principles enshrined in our Constitution, the Congress has, by joint resolution of February 29, 1952 (36 U.S.C. 106), designated September 17 as “Constitution Day and Citizenship Day” and authorized the President to issue a proclamation calling on United States officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on that day. By joint resolution of August 2, 1956 (36 U.S.C. 108), the Congress further requested that the President proclaim the week beginning September 17 and ending September 23 of each year as “Constitution Week.” >NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim September 17, 2024, as Constitution Day and Citizenship Day, and September 17 through September 23 as Constitution Week. On this day and during this week, we celebrate our Constitution and the rights of citizenship that we enjoy together as the proud people of this Nation.
