    FOPA of 1986 in danger

    The way things go with gun rights: Whatever's lost is never regained, whats gained is easily lost. They'll most likely repeal the fopa protections and keep the MG ban, you can rest assured of that. You'll have a hard time finding enough politicians to say "Im for putting machine guns on our...

    Unarmed on the High seas

    Most nations don't smile on pleasure boaters or shippers carrying firearms. It means you either smuggle your weapon or sail without. Its become a big problem in some ports where pirate attacks are a multi billion dollar industry. In those places you'd be forced to either hire some shady mercs...

    In the Fight Against Terrorism, Some Rights Must Be Repealed

    I guess since I'm black and don't fit his perfect little stereotype, I must be one of the "few"? Its always bugged me how intellectuals like these can study so long and learn so little.

    The Draft Is Coming.....About Time

    Because the sons and daughters of the rich and powerful who were not at risk during the previous drafts will be at risk now?

    Police Dog Shot, Man Indicted- Opinions?

    Police dogs are expensive... Why was an $11,000.00 animal left to wander onto another persons property? Why was this living piece of city property not kept in a proper kennel and out of danger?

    Bush administration reverses Ashcroft in TSA ruling

    I little ditty to note about space craft, which include suborbital pods like the one Rutan built, is that they can come down just about anywhere. The Russians had an experience with one pod that left their crew stranded in the wilderness, almost attacked by wolves. You can probably see worse...

    I think I figured it out....

    Few anti's hate guns, but they all hate seeing people of the wrong social caste own them. Its the root of our problem. Gun control persists, in the US, because very few actually believe in the 2nd amendment as a right of the people. If you want to see a flame war start debating if illegal...

    US destroys Iraqi AKs. US buys Iraqis more AKs.

    Guns aren't very expensive in bulk to a government, especially a kalashnikov. Probably cheaper to junk the old ones and buy new than to hire hundreds of gunsmiths to inspect, repair, and standardize them.

    Mike Rowe: "Dirty Jobs" and Guns

    I saw that show. He seemed to have nothing but respect for the soldiers he was with, and you don't hear much about his political leanings elsewhere in the series. My guess is he pretends to be a punching bag for the sake of the audience. That and there is something rather uncomfortable...

    The NRA needs to educate the people.

    Your wasting your time. These kind most likely don't believe in self defense against evil of any form. Security and revolution are things they entrust to campus security, cops, soldiers, maybe some guy down the street, always someone else but surely never themselves. Anyway, thats getting...

    Limited-shelf-life ammo??

    The military wouldn't want it, cops and civilians would avoid it like the plague, I'd foresee most people either reloading or buying from out of state. Criminals would be unaffected entirely. Seeing as it could only be sold in a few silly places where mandated by law and you cant keep any...

    What would happen if we eliminated political parties?

    This day and age you need a political machine. If its Democrat or republican, or even some form of independent candidates movement, you need alot of people and alot of money to be elected. Having one organization used to elect multiple candidates has historically worked better in the US than...

    What would it take to make a viable third party?

    Without some method to level the playing field or make voters feel their third party votes are not wasted, you're not going to get the votes. The rule we have in the Virgin Islands for Governor is 50 +1. So of the people running, the leader has to get 50% of the total votes +1 more to be...

    Wow....a view on gun control being an "issue".

    Its been my experience in life that big things tend to harm little things. Sometimes intentionally, sometimes by accident, but thats just how it is. Big trucks hit little pedestrians, big boats squish little sailors, big animals stomp little farmers, big waves drown little swimmers. Big...

    Election sheds a new light on SHTF topics.

    Actually I think the dems will be tame for the next two years. They are counting down to the presidency and all they have to do is stay the course then blame all current troubles on the president. The Democrats made alot of election day promises. If they forcibly cause a pull out from...

    Rhetoric question...why should machine guns be okay, but not nukes?

    I recall there was a quote that went "any terrible impliment of man"... reguardless, even if it was legal to own a nuke with no strings attached where would you get it? Very few entities can make them, with fewer still that would even consider selling one or components for one to the random...

    San Francisco Police Chief tells it like it is

    http://mfile.akamai.com/12948/wmv/vod.ibsys.com/2006/0728/9591734.300k.asx Try that one. If this guy ever runs for office it would be hard not to vote for him.

    Is our UN membership worth the trouble?

    Right now the UN is the only good exceuse we have to go and "fix" other countries. If we leave it or dismantel it, we lose that leverage...Which is probly what these guys want, and why they go on stage to spout as much outrageous garbel as they can to make a mockery of the UN and drive...
