  1. My house has an outer 'court' door with 2 locks. The front door has a metal screen door and then another door with 2 locks. Inside we have 2 dogs that make all kind of noises when somebody comes around. I figure if somebody wants to step inside I guess I could help them outside with only a few rounds.
  2. If you ask somebody if .22 caliber weapons are okay, they generally say 'YES'. Then I ask them if a .22 caliber bullet increased in width by a human hair (.003 inches) is okay and they always say 'YES'. . But the Connecticut shooter used a gun that shot .223 bullets!
  3. As for the Connecticut shootings......... In China a man stabbed 23 kids because he thought the World was coming to an end. He probably was inspired by the 'Almighty God' group who thought there would be 3 days and nights of darkness. The group also believed afterwards everything will be beautiful - paradise. The chap in Connecticut may have seen articles relating to the stabbing of the school children in China and being his Mother and probably himself were predisposed to the beliefs of the 'Almighty God' group (preppers) he may have been 'inspired' by the nut in China. After the Connecticut massacre, China banned the 'Almighty God' group and tossed about 1000 of their members into prison/jail. Strange world.
  4. The military and police are considered good guys and they have guns.
  5. Wasn''t it 60,000 people who were killed in Mexico? Mexico has tough gun controls but a lot of their citizens still get killed by guns.
  6. There was a time you could board some airlines and fly to the destination while carrying a gun out in the open. At the time, nobody considered it wrong. The school I went to, some of the students would drive to the school in their truck with their rifle straaped to the back window. At the time, nobody considered it wrong. But today, everything is wrong. No wonder some go ;nuts'.
  7. Another question is "If a tree falls in the woods, is it heard?" How far a RFID transmitter broadcasts is not much concern. What is of concern is how far away a receiver can be to pick up the signal.
  8. I know of some gun users who never buy ammo - they just reload their own.
  9. I think one area that should be looked at is how did the gunman get into the school. Another area is why didn't his mother have locks on her guns knowing she has an unstable son.
  10. Sounds like double talk to me. If a person comes into my store and pulls out a gun I feel I have a better chance of living if I have my gun available. I firmly believe everybody has the tight to protect themselves. If some don't want to protect themselves, that is their choice.
  11. I just hope this shooter is not one of the nuts who believe the World is coming to an end because of the Mayan calendar.
  12. He dipped the pen into the ink and then faltered for just a second. A tremor had gone through his bowels. To mark the paper was the decisive act. (April 4th, 1984)

  13. The Koch brothers and ALEC are not household words but have a dramatic impact on each home in the USA.
  14. Reagan 'forced' the States to raise their sales taxes, etc. and counties raised their property taxes because Reagan's Federal Government provided less money to the States. In effect, his policies, which arestill with us now, actually raised taxes dramatically.
  15. The USA is paranoid over drugs. Even though half of the population wants drugs and half of that group gets their drugs legally by prescription whereas the rest get their drugs off the street.
  16. It sounds like the reason the Republicans lost was "If you aren't a Republican - you are the enemy."
  17. McCain looks like he wants to bring charges against Obama for the murder of 4 people in Benghazzi. Whatever happened to holding responsible the persons who committed the murders? As for bringing charges against Obama, I hope they do. Then we can bring charges against GWB for all the deaths in Iraq. Wasn't McCain for the invasion of Iraq whereas Obama objected?
  18. I see not much difference between Romney and Obama. The biggest difference was Romney's flip-flopping. He shouldn't have been changing his beliefs so much.
  19. I predict Willard wins............... in votes and Jump in the box Obie One wins the Electoral College. . If that happens, Obie One gets another term!
  20. Almost that time...... for the big election. Will it be Obie One or Willard? We wll know soon.
  21. Will Obie One get indicted for the 100 plus deaths as a result of Sandr?
  22. Republicans claim Obie One stole 700 bllion from Medicare. Obie One claims that figure is the amount Medicare saves from fraud, over charges etc. If I save $1000.00 in by business will I be indicted for theft? Makes no sense...... only in Washington.
  23. If Romney believes in magic so much then why do we need a military? Can't Willard brew up a spell that will disarm the World?
  24. Willard who is a High Priest of the Order of Melchizedek surely mst have a lot of magical stuff written all over his undies. Do other World leaders wear magical undies?
