I'm not sure why Vin tries to derail his message with the snarky JFK conspiracy-theory garbage at the beginning. Regardless, he's pretty late to this party. For example, the number he called used to take messages. Can you imagine why it doesn't any more?

geojap, thank you for the homework.

From the thread title, I thought we might have been in for a couple hours of Larry Pratt and Paul Helmke agreeing on how much they hate the NRA. 2 minutes isn't a debate, it's enough time for a couple of soundbites.

American Rifleman. America's First Freedom was ok, but had many of the exact same articles as AR, and the ones that were different weren't interesting enough for me to keep getting it in addition to AR. ETA: You can get more than one mag per membership, it's only like $5 or $10 more per year.

Larry Pratt and the GOA lying in yet another attempt to smear the NRA? Say it ain't so!

...Life Members are the ones that get to vote for the Board. The Board would be the ones that would have to "endorse the semi-auto ban". Then it would be up to Life Members to vote out the Board members that supported such a thing. The only reason to not be a Life Member is if you just want a...

Do whatever you want with your money. Though, you may want to check and see if any of the other "groups" you have in mind have elected Boards and are accountable for the dollars you send them...unless you just feel like paying the ammo budget, rent, etc., of whoever cashes the check at one of...

Because the price of the finished good is not proportion to the cost of the raw materials? Which means that once demand slacks, so will price.

Sure they did, and less than 2 years ago. .45ACP WWB 100r packs at Wally world for $19.99. S&B .45ACP at my local shop for $9.50 a box. Before that, you'd have been hard-pressed to find .45ACP for less than $12-$14+ a box, and even then you'd have to look at the price adjusted for inflation...

I think the answer is actually "1". The crazy guy that up-armored a bulldozer or some such in Granby, CO used a .50BMG to fire randomly at buildings when he went on his "rampage". I don't think he actually hit anyone though.

I'm pretty sure Skunk didn't spontaneously turn white.

The story posted above says that "the officer in the passenger seat of the patrol car fired when Brumfield, lying on the hood, made a stabbing motion at him through his side window." I guess I'm assuming it wasn't a pistol-grip, but I don't know what NOPD issues or allows. I'm not supporting...

Except that, with the supposed target (and shooter) in the passenger seat, the guy couldn't have been supporting himself with his left hand and stabbing with his right. He would have had to have been supporting himself with his right hand and stabbing with the left. And how do you maneuver a...

There can be totally righteous shoots that leave GSWs in the backs of the criminal. This should not be in dispute. I do have to wonder how a man lying on the hood of a car, making a stabbing motion into the vehicle, can be shot in the back by the passenger of the car...with a shotgun.

Before this turns into a cop-bashing thread, please keep in mind that Chicago cops are pretty much a twisted breed unto themselves. I would say that no meaningful assumptions could possibly be made about police in general based on the actions of the Chicago PD.

Sigh. Tell ya what, you put up your sign and start blasting people. Let us know how that goes for you. As a hint, trespassing isn't generally a crime that can be resisted with deadly force. Especially when the "criminal" starts trying to desist from the act of trespassing in a non-violent...

HEY HEY HEY! No sense talking allowed here! You just whip out that blaster and start shooting mister!

I don't know. If this is the case, then why all the garbage talked about Hi-Points? Lifetime warantee, solidly reliable, acceptable accuracy... Given the amount of these guns that run without failures, the only valid criticism I've heard of them is poor ergonomics and weight. I guess $100...
