Out of curiosity, why are most of your pictures relatively high-key? Is it just because you like 'em that way, or because it's flattering to women's skin, or is there another reason?

There is an issue of private property and contract, but it's a non-issue today in most stores. It's legitimate for an establishment to stipulate, as a condition of entry, that bags can be searched--just as amusement parks and theaters often do. That's legit: it's private property, and you enter...

Wow--LOVE the first pic! When's it gonna be available as a wall poster? I'd pay extra for one with slightly tightened wording: "I'm compensating for being smaller and weaker than my attacker." Bonus points for the Kalashnikov. --Len Disclaimer: When I saw the subject line, I was expecting...

If you posted his name with the intent that we'd go do some research on his background, then the name hardly "says it all," as you originally stated, since the name only tells us something after researching him further, which we didn't realize you intended us to do. Here's the scenario: You...

Dark Harvest, that the guy has an Indian name is irrelevant. I have no idea what you think his name tells you--unless you have a beef with Indians generally. And if you do, then Deer Hunter, Strings and the others are right: this is not a welcoming place for racists to hang out. If we've...

That's a step in the right direction--but everyone should be required to watch the video of the guy in the bar who takes a pint of OC in the face, dumps his beer on his head and keeps fighting, takes another pint or so, splashes water on his face and keeps fighting... --Len.

Sorry--didn't even think of that, because I've never managed to find a Galil pistol grip--which is mainly why I never bothered with the foregrip, apart from its price. --Len.

Federalist 41. Excerpt: It has been urged and echoed, that the power "to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts, and excises, to pay the debts, and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States," amounts to an unlimited commission to exercise every power which may be...

The founders claimed that "general welfare" covered no more nor less than the powers enumerated in the Constitution. The anti-federalists who wanted it left out, for fear it would become an open-ended source of federal power, have turned out to be right. When did it used to be that way? (Hint...

+1 Alligator--the story could well be very different than it sounds. +1 Cosmoline--If the "abuse" is real, and the girl isn't a sociopath, I'll bet a new Bowie knife that the abuse was sexual, and horrific. Um, Dark Harvest, I'll assume that "AP" is the part that tells us everything we need to...

I can answer that question, but it would take us off-topic. The basic answer is that "law enforcement" can, and should, be fully privatized, and private property rights absolutely respected. "Fat Tony" isn't allowed to put waste on anyone else's property; if he puts it on his own property...

You've probably already grokked this, but the Saiga doesn't use standard AK hardware for mounting the foregrip, so you can only use the one made for Saigas unless you want a job on your hands. I'm preparing to convert a 7.62x39, and already bought all the parts. I opted to keep the stock...

+1 Deanimator +1 Coronach My current "home invasion" plan is to reinforce entries to the house, in hopes that it buys enough time to retreat to the safe room and call 911. If it happens to be a wrong-door raid, hopefully this will suffice to sort everything out (and stand-down my weapons and...

Something else: I'm an idiot. The "quantity" field is empty when you view a product, so unless you put a "1" in there, their app obediently adds zero items to your cart. :D Update: I just ordered your three best shirts. You might want to start planning a trip; the royalties are heading your...

The war is certainly taking its toll. In Vietnam, an estimated 50,000 rounds were fired per enemy killed. I found that astonishing, but one estimate says that in Iraq something like 250,000 rounds are fired per enemy killed. That's gotta put a dent in the ammo market. --Len.

At traditional rates, the jizya would be under $20 per year. Fedgov wants 500 times more from me in tribute every year. Hm..... just sayin'.

Tried to get the T-Shirt... No, not THAT one... THIS one: Anyway, the Liberty Outlet site seems to be broken. When I try to buy a T-shirt it tells me my cart is empty. Nothing I do seems to make it not empty. --Len.

Griz, It does indeed. Except for one vital difference: the set of "federal laws" to be enforced was amazingly tiny. Collection of import duties, and corresponding measures against smuggling, were almost the whole of federal law. That has metastasized into something the founders wouldn't...

The founders' writings on RKBA make it very clear that the whole point was for citizens to be better armed than government. They were even violently opposed to a standing army. I think that's a great idea. With one stipulation, though: armed government agents should also have no extra powers...

I think I hear ghostly voices in Waco saying, "Hey, it's worth a shot!" Maybe the FBI would hesitate to slaughter innocents in a grand-standing play to justify more funding for the then BATF. Recall, however, that the FBI was originally about investigation--that's what the "I" meant, you...
