The greatness of Ted Nugent

Three years in highschool, largely forgotten, but I reckon it would probably come back quickly given the circumstances!:)
 
I don't hate France or the French, I just find the jokes funny. :D

I do like the Nuge's attitude while talking to a French PETA type reporter, though, I mean, if it really happened. A lot of this internet e-m stuff, the vast majority, is contrived. I can only admire the Nuge's quick wit if it did happen as written. :D He is a lot quicker with the wit, though, than some vice presidents who I know of that claim to say things witty and can't back up the stories. :rolleyes: LOL
 
Saturnus, how much time did you spend over there? The baguettes are great.

I agree with you on the cars... mostly... except the area I was in had an awful lot of high profile Italian and German cars.

Firearms - other than an old rifle a fellow I knew there used for boar hunting, I only ever saw law enforcement with firearms. As much as I complain about gun control here in Canada, France is definitely worse.
 
I'd have thought Americans would love the French for the decisive victory over the British at Yorktown and especially the blockade by the French fleet under Admiral De Grasse which prevented supplies getting to Cornwallis.

If it weren't for them you'd be flying the Union flag, saluting Her Majesty, and could properly spell the words 'colour' and 'aluminium'. :)
 
I'll give the French one thing.

Every Frenchman I have ever met has been more courteous and polite than every Brit I've ever met.

Maybe I met the wrong people, but the Brits were rather stand-offish and rude. The French on the other hand were pretty nice to me, especially if I approached them in French.

Right you are sir!:D
 
Everytime I go back to Europe (every 2 years or so) I try to spend few days in France.
One French thing I really cannot stand is their terrible Accordion music!!! :D:D:neener::neener:

I love the Pate' (Duck Liver), the cheeses and their pastry!!

Well, apparently this one's true.

Again I would love to see how the "great Ted' would fare after few meatgrinding days during Foreing Legion mountain combat training in the Pyrenees mountains...one guy that served in the USMC told me it was beyond real....
 
I often watch "Spirit of the Wild" on Tuesday at 7:30PM. Uncle Ted shares valueable archery info about BEST drop-away rest, arrows, release aid, and broadhead that would cost $100.'s to find out on your own. His vast experience can not be denied.

I don't appreciate his enthusiasm for killing animals. Yes, I'm a hunter but do not behave as he does after the kill shot is complete. But I'm mature enough to realize we're all different in unique ways so I won't belabor this point.

The Nuge has a tender heart for the Wounded Warriors and disabled folks. This is a genuine stand-out quality that shows what kind of man he truly is. I admire this quality very much. America needs more men like Ted Nugent. (Captain Backstrap)

'Appen as maybe, but when you need some fighting done it's the Brits America turns to.'
 
Hey Saturno... I live in France partly. And I can tell you.. French gun laws are amongst the most liberal in Europe. I am not an EE/EU citizen... and have a few decent weapons.
 
I am not a Ted Nugent fan. Nugent talks his trash. However, when it was time for Nugent to serve in the US Army he dodged the draft.


Since we've been discussing Ted Nugent lately, this seemed a good time to bring up Nugent's draft dodging. It's well known that Nugent claims to have gone to great lengths to flunk his Draft Board physical. What's not so well-known is that he got a student deferment at the same time he was touring with his rock band, putting in an average of 300 shows a year. How was he going to school and touring that much at the same time?

One of our readers sent me a copy of an extract of Nugent’s Selective Service records, obtained via a FOIA request (copy below). As you can see, Nugent received student deferments in 1967 (1-S) and 1968 (2-S). But according to the Internet Movie Data Base website, Nugent has been “performing professionally since 1958, non-stop yearly touring since 1967, averaging more than 300 shows per year '67-73.” Hmm, that would include the two years he was supposedly too wrapped up in his studies to be serving his country

Except when it was time to register for the draft during the Vietnam era. By his own admission, Nugent stopped all forms of personal hygiene for a month and showed up for his draft board physical in pants caked with his own urine and feces, winning a deferment. Creative!...

"So Sweden, Finland, or Denmark are not decent countries because they have insignificant military histories?"

Sorry, but they have THE military history.

Ever heard of the Vikings?

They ruled every place they set foot, including all the countries ringing the Baltic.

It finally took the might of Russia with Peter the Great to stop a small army of Vikings. Russia by the way gets it's name from the Vikings, Rus meaning red, the color THEY gave to the local hair.

Same in Ireland, where THEY settled Dublin.

The English had a prayer invoking God to protect them from the Vikings.

As previously stated it was the Normans (Norsemen or men of the north or Vikings)) who won the battle of Hastings in 1066.

I wouldn't call that military history insignificant.

Anyway, isn't this site about guns, doesn't Ted shoot bows? :rolleyes:
 
Normans were from ...er ... Normandy in France. I think it was the only war the French won against us (if you don't count your war of Independance where they helped out). And to be fair to Harold he had just marched all the way down from York after delivering a bloody good kicking to Hardråda's Vikings. That's a march of about 300 miles with a battle at both ends of it.

I am only going to say this.

Saturno, I would like to see you debate with Ted some time. You would be surprised on how much information this fellow actually has in his head.

I think people seriously underestimate how intelligent he is.. and that is all I have to say bout that..:neener:

Never knew this. Like I said, I met him when I was a kid. I thought he was a jerk.

I think he goes to far in some of the things he says. He reinforces views of people who agree with him and turn off people who could possibly be turned to a more pro-hunting point of view. Isn't that the whole goal- to win over people who are on the fence? It's not the anti-hunters who we need to fight, it's the indifference of people who don't care either way and are likely to get swayed in the opposite direction if our spokesman is some half-a$$ed foul mouthed wanna-be rock star who glorifies the blood and guts aspect.

Yo shaggy,

There is much you can say about Ted but "half a$$ed, and wanna be rock star" ain't it.

Ted was huge back in the 70's and 80's. I realize that you don't like the man but that statement is B.S.!
 
Normans were from ...er ... Normandy in France.

Yes, but King Williams's own family was of Viking ancestry. The Vikings conquered Normandy in the 9th/10th centuries. Of course, nobility such as William "the Bastard", later William the Conqueror, who was the bastard son of a Norman duke, was of Viking decent. So, in a way, his defeat of King Harold was a victory for the Vikings, well, sorta. LOL!

The Vikings predate the very countries of Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark.

So the Italians have one of the greatest military history in the world...at the time of the Roman empire they ruled the world!!

Maybe so but definitely he made an ignorant statement about the French...

P.S.

Oh yes!!! I forgot about Teddy draft dodging.....thanks for reminding me that....
 
ignorant statement about the French...

I think he was just stating his opinion, just like you are stating your opinion. I hate to say this, Mate but there are quite a few people on the planet that share his opinion about the French. I am not saying my opinion is relevant here but I did get the chance to live in Central Europe for 7 years and go back there quite often. You would be surprised what alot of Europe thinks of France.

I've been to France several times and I personally have never had any issues while I was there. But I wonder why so many people i met in my life have a somewhat negative opinion of the French.

Kinda makes you wonder... Just my $0.02 worth of food for thought.

This may come as a bit of a shock to some of you.... but a lot of the world doesnt like Americans... but I am not gonna bitch and moan about it....

I will just smile and be happy I am not Canadian... LMAO

Point is, everyone is hated by someone for whatever reason.. have the French been cowards at some point in time? yes..... are Americans Fat and self consumed? Some are (most) .....Do Mexicans Pile into more people into a tiny car than should be possible? I've seen it.... Do Canadians talk funny and lend themselves to the position of comic relief? Depends who you ask, but pretty much.....

GROW UP... Take it like a man..(just not like a frenchman) LMAO!!!:neener:
