Side step, but dear to me. Can we have a massive bon fire fueled by Hello kitty and Barney Dolls? My 2 girls are 27 and 30, and I STILL have Barney scars! OK, now back to the awesome serious discussion that we are being allowed to have here, in peace and polite disagreement. You all are rock stars!

Gun manufacturers are not designed to kill people. They are designed to expel an object from a device and accurately place it where the user intends. There is no "gun" mfg'r that markets.... This puppy will kill 7000 humans. Just like Black pipe mfg'rs don't market, put two pipe caps on this and 4 ounces of powder and it will kill 55 ppl. Dodge doesn't market their Durango.. This thing will kill 10% of lower manhatten in the cross walk. Stanley tools doesn't market their hammer.. Fix the people.

Yes there is, your local hardware store. They are like the supposed Ghost gun, some assembly required.

I a 100% in favor of single topic legislation. (or what ever you call it) If they have to work 24 hrs a day voting every 20 seconds, I don't care.

That boy is so much more polite than both of my girls would have been... lol (30 and 27 now) Cherish every moment Jaybob!

Just to make sure I have been true to my word, Since this conversation started, I have now went back and watched Grand Torino again. Yep, My feelings are all there in Cinematic Scripture. Get out of my yard! And for you motor heads (not the band), the 351 Cleveland in the Gran Torino was a beast, it just needed a little tweaking from the factory ! 😁

I probably won't say this correctly, but my numbers are accurate. The value of my 401 has lost ~50K in the last ~4ish months. According to my statement balance. I am not touching anything so no, I have not "lost" anything, but dang that is unnerving.

So you're saying there's still a chance. ... That actually has already happened. I think everyone understands your approach and respect your right to have it. But just so you know, even if I have to suddenly become a felon because of the defense I have arranged for my family, I won't care. Often making the "Right" decision, isn't the easiest.

It just begs the question, what level of "likelihood" is acceptable? I understand that some what to say it will NEVER happen. If that makes you do what you do, carry on. There are many of us (going all the way back to those who created this country) who will not accept "it will never happen". And just to be sure, we will leverage our risk with defense capabilities. The next question for the "it will never happen group". What status does my side hold you, in the event it does happen? (God forbid). You are fighting against me now, so... I'm not saying you are not American, but my sides approach is to be able to defend this for all of us. It seems your side is, disarm and leave it to the biggest potential threat, not to me, to all of us. Oh well. I pray this all just stays as a disagreement of something that never happens.

How many of #1 being required would be alarming? 20 times? 10 , 8, 4? Many of use will only accept 0, and we want to peacefully hedge our wishes. Also, How many of those positioned and properly focused in #1 are performing #2? We need to fix the people, not the rocks they throw. If anything with the rocks available today, that should only enforce our need to fix our people.

Intresting story about tall hoods. https://abc7ny.com/bike-lanes-safety-cyclists-bikers/5473859/

I think you picked up what I was puttin down brother. Well done.

If so, do we keep our Mini 14's?

Ranks right up there with... Oh, that could NEVER happen. If no one can see the examples from Afghanistan and now Ukraine, I just don't know what to say and those are just recent. Oh heck, maybe now we can add Portland to the scenario that the US Government would just squash everyone like a bug... Rights were not granted on the whims of... "In my opinion, you just probably don't need that, it doesn't make sense to me". OK carry on.

So you are saying we need a law that says the only illegal street guns one can buy is an old 6 shooter. Do I have that right? I think that would be perfect for someone to advertise, See I did something about gun control.

YOu won't eat Catfish?

I'm tacking with you 100% I believe. I do think most everyone supports UBC's and training IN THEORY. Speaking for myself, I don't trust where further legislation on UBC's could rabbit hole off into and go counter to 2A. example - It's the normal gloomy mid January in Indiana. Cloud cover, cold, stuck in the house. You go to your DR for the normal annual checkup and they ask, are you feeling depressed or any depression. You simply answer, yea man, I just feel a little down. Maybe (probably) you just need some sun and the beach. But 2 yrs later you have a UBC conducted... Flagged since you have a history of depression. So hard to codify this without "over reach" at someones advantage of their agenda. I know some will say, our laws could never be used that way. To that, I would have to sternly disagree.

I have a re-occurring dream that my 2nd wife never happened. Then I wake up, look at my bank account and real estate holdings, the dream is dead. Reality sucks.

A Tip of my Jacques seed corn hat and a nod to you sir. Very well done.

OR, Driving in a formula 1 race over seas.

Ahhh Little Kings, Payne town boat ramp, float 24 in the water and make sure they never got away full. Oh the good ole days.

Ahhh Nothing says 19 yr old exotic dancer single mother like the Pontiac Sunbird. It was over valued at half the price.

So you repeatedly have a jerk setting next to you at games. Do you notice this happening at any other group activities? On public transit? company meetings? Family reunions? Dinner at home?

Are they considered whoreders?

So I told the Doctor that my arm hurt when I moved it like this.... The Doctor said, well then don't move it like that. 😁
