Funny - I just sent this to the Democratic party: Congratulations. I am a lifelong Republican that voted for Sen Obama - my first time ever voting for a Democratic Presidential candidate. Please don't blow it. You won by courting and winning the vote of independents, centrists and moderate...

Yeah ... you make America look good.

I started talking to a friend's dad about building me an M4. Guess I need to go through with it tomorrow.

Hear hear.

Yeah, we had the same discussion on Fark today, and the general opinion was that although he tends to be an anti, he's got much more important things to do in his term (if elected) than grab our guns. Not to mention it's political suicide for many of his Democrat allies from rural states.

DoD network. Can read, but not post.

So, as a new gun owner/shooter, what would you recommend? I'd really not like to to start stockpiling ammo to avoid a huge price increase, as I have kids and having ammo, gun and kids in the same house worries me (and may affect child custody.) I've started looking into reloadinng, and I'm not...

I always make sure I get a military clause in my leases - one that covers any order. A military member that doesn't is a fool . The likelihood of a CO doing this is incredibly low - almost any CO would let the member serve out his lease. If the CO for some reason didn't, though, he would have...

The commander would most likely direct the soldier to move at the end of his lease. If the commander wanted to be a prick, he'd order the soldier to move immediately regardless of consequences. Most commanders are not pricks.

Sorry I couldn't get back on this yet, THR is blocked at work - I can read it but not post. No, I have never signed a false statement to my commander. Satisfied? Have I broken the rules? Sure. Have I lied about it? Nope. Keyboard commando? I actually have told a boss I wouldn't lie when...

Ummm, committing the acts was not the smartest thing to do. Admitting them on a public forum was just icing on the cake. You violated your integrity. You lied. Unless you did this with the express purpose of civil disobedience (meaning you intend to get caught in the lie in order to...

I met a new guy in my Sunday School class yesterday and asked what he did. When he said BATF agent, I chuckled and said I wouldn't debate with him. He said "We'd be on the same side. Iwas very happy with Heller." We chatted a bit about the Katrina stuff and basic 2A things. He said he told...

Yar! What about the one on the left? She is hAWt with a capital AW - for AW YEAH!

Would you laugh?

I know that many reality shows do act like that, but 30 Days is actually different. Every episode I've watched has been very fair, with the possible exception of the one on homosexuality.

I could OC here in Louisiana, but since I'm active duty, most days I couldn't. Even on my days off, I go to the BX and commissary sometimes, so I would have to go home, drop off my pistol, then go back to the base - not really worth the effort. Having said that, not sure I'd carry even if I...

Who's the enemy - NPR? IMO, NPR is the most balanced of them all, and since it's Public radio, if you don't think they're covering your side fairly, speak up!

I'm an active duty military officer. If I had the infantry training, I couldn't possibly refuse, or not volunteer if it presented itself.

That's the worst thing that could happen - the demagogues and nanny statists would ensure that once it was stricken it was never readded. "Think of the children" would become the national anthem. It can never be done without a major constitutional crisis, because amendments must be...

This thread, and the concept of "who is likely to actually commit a crime with a gun" just reminds me of one of my favorite conundrums. I am a commissioned officer in the military. I am entrusted to care for secrets and defend my country. I have weapons training. I cannot even bring a...
