Silly Aussies. If that was an American kid, you know those bombs would have gone off without a hitch. And they say our public education sucks...

I doubt a Kerry presidency would be disastrous. Unless, of course, the Dems take back the congress. Should that happen, I'll weep for our nation. Say hello to emasculated European-style socialism!

The Vietnamese equate the AK-47 with freedom? Which Vietnamese are you talking about? The ones who were singled out by "Uncle Ho" and shot in the face for owning property and "being part of the oppressive land-owning class?" Or just the guys who got tossed into reeducation camps around 1975...

I don't care for censorship, even on the public airwave. I think the FCC should merely handle frequencies, doing stuff like combating pirate stations and making sure stations aren't competing on the same wavelength. However, I won't shed a tear for Howard Stern. The guy is a tool, who...

This poll does not surprise me. People fear power.

Yeah, because clearly there isn't a single ????ing arabic speaking person left in Afghanistan. And clearly, captured documents/terrorists would have to be deciphered or interrogated right on the spot. Next up on the idd newswire: BUSH DRINKS HUMAN BLOOD WITH VAMPIRE BATS IN THE AMAZON BASIN...

Oh, I agree entirely that this particular operation in Fallujah has some clear similarities to Tet. And much of what's going on in Iraq seems to be (mis)represented by the media in the same manner as Tet. But overall, I do not like the comparison of our war in Iraq with the Vietnam War.

It occurs to me that you are simply running a monologue here. Care to answer any of the posed questions instead of bringing up even more horrible and one-sided analysis?

In what way is Iraq worse? You cite the instability of multiple factions within Iraq. How is that bad for us? You'd rather we fight a single determined fighting force backed by two major powers (well-organized and with an army motivated by deathly fear of its own commanders) than splintered...

She really brought the hammer down on Bob Kerrey. I haven't seen a grown man make the gaping "fish face" in a long time.

"Could the high crime rate in the US possibly have anything to do with our large, culturally diverse, urbanized population? Naaaaaaaaaah. That would make too much sense. Let's blame it on guns.!"

Oh no, these guys do not represent the "established" Democratic party. Real Democrats just get mobsters to stuff the ballot boxes.

He got a crackhouse raided? Good for him! If you think crackhouses don't destroy neighborhoods, you go live near one for a week or three. I guarantee you'll want to pin a medal on this guy for having the testicular fortitude to stick his neck out about it. Nothing destroys...

M1911Owner, after reading your posts, I am absolutely appalled. Honestly, how could you not know that the President of the United States is equipped with a high-tech brain implant that allows him psychic knowledge of everything currently happening on the Earth? I mean, damn -- I thought...

Under the bed. I have long arms. :) I live in a small, 1-story house on a tiny piece of property. If I need my gun, I'm not going to have time to get it out of an electronic lockbox.

You know, I like the British. But this thread has just reinforced one pretty harsh truth about Britain: Agricola, your government sucks. Vote in some "evil" gun-toting capitalists and reform your civil law, please. Just look at the rest of Europe for some incentive. ;) That what KABA did...

My personal opinion regarding ideology is pretty simple. The American ideology is practicality. Right now, it seems a lot more practical to visit some serious carnage on Fallujah than watch a handful of soldiers die every day because we don't eliminate known bastions of enemy resistance...

Rob, while it's true that people should be ready to defend themselves from any position, I do think the "interview stance" has a great deal of merit. It gives a person the opportunity to fall back on some training and assume a good defensive posture. If someone was following me and I felt...

A lot of good advice here. One thing I would like to add is that many women looking for their first gun are shepherded towards smaller, "less intimidating" offerings. And inevitably, those "little Berettas" come into the picture. In my experience, getting a first-time gun owner one of those...

I have fired quite a bit of Wolf and Blazer ammo from my P89 (yes, I am a cheapskate). Never had any problems whatsoever. One of the shooting ranges I frequent has a "NO BLAZER" sign, and the guy who runs the place claims he's seen the casing foul up in too many extractors. My personal...
