Whats your BS Meter say to this??

I think his real name is Jason Bourne so Rich might not have a chance to make that call, he is probably hiding in Rich's office right now waiting for the right moment to take him out.

"your a 50 million dollar killing machine the U.S. government trained solider"

Or something like that. :D LOL
 
IGB while the guy is a liar and a buffoon, why drag his employer into this?

Bear, I believe the reason that Rich is threatening to drag his employer into the situation is this:

1. His employer is the state. This is pretty important since he is claiming to be a Former Marine.
2. There is a little concern, based on his previous posts, that he is a little unstable, and might consitute a risk to the society. Here is the quote from Rich....

Even before your "brother's" hijack you were posting some disturbing flights of fantasy from home and your school/work place. These included comments about harassing your sleeping neighbors with gunfire and the like and other items of Black-Ops fantasy.

....
Given what I've seen here, I think it may be incumbent on me to contact the Forces-That-Be at the Ky State Network that you've posted from. You can explain the "little brother" story to them; but I'll sleep a lot better.

I.G.B.
 
Do you guys go around giving your little brothers your passwords and login names to your family members? Who does that kind of thing? No one called him out on that, but I guess it doesn't matter. He deserves whatever comes his way, there should be zero tolerance for "marine sniper posers" in my opinion.

As for bringing his employer in on the deal, I tell you what, if you own/run a website and someone comes in there stirring up trouble, you've got every right to track them down to make them cease and desist. And I'd bet that most employers frown upon using company equipment to do that in a big way. Methinks he is royally screwed, and he brought it all on himself.

If I were Rich, I'd ask him to post a complete and utter retraction, worded to my liking, and a promise to never come back again.

Someone then points out his profile that says marine recon and outdoors survialist and then provides a link to a March 13th posting in which he refers to the Marine corp and training on a .50 cal.

And that someone was me. In fact post #115 here was originally me?

My father served with distinction in the Third Army in WWII.
AS for me, I attempted to join right after high school but due to medical reasons I was refused by every branch of the service. A fact that shames me to this very day.

So for me to see this poser, acting like a buffoon, under the auspices of the US MIlitary was an outrage.

I am sure we haven't heard the last from this fool. I only hope he decides to bypass THR.

Hardly anything to be ashamed of. Most of my family has been in the military at one time or another. Grandfather served over 30 years in the Navy beginning just before WWII and father served during the Vietnam War (got out just before 1968 Tet Offensive and never actually made it to Vietnam). Various other family member were in this branch or that. Tried USN, Army, and USMC right after high school (didn't bother with AF since other 3 said no, why try the fourth). Hearing deficit prevented me from getting in. Also tried in college for ROTC, again military didn't want to be held responsible if my hearing worsened while in service.

Bottom line, you tried to serve your country, but were prevented by physical matters beyond your control. You did the honorable thing.

Edited to add: Phoey! Just checked on the thread over there and they closed it. Was very entertaining. Did you guys catch the remark about his little brother buying a bunch of salt shakers on e-bay? Even when he knows he's toast, he still keeps it up. Probably why Rich won't let this go. This guy is in serious deep do-do.
 
IGB yeah I caught that upon reading the whole thread at TFL. Guy needs to get that tinfoil just a bit tighter.
 
If he's a state employee, I sure they have rules about using your office equipment (including internet service) for personal goofing off during working hours. In the current environment, it's a good bet that they wouldn't approve of visiting firearms related sites while at work.
 
I don't know about the contacting the employer and seeing him as a threat. Then again, Rich does run a tight ship and I respect that. It is better to be safe than sorry and what the heck, it might actually teach some people that hte Internet is real and you are responsible for your actions. I hope Rich and the moderators keep us updated.

Something good from the LuckyInKentucky silliness...

I still very much like Bogie's idea of a "shoot all day, then get fat at night" gathering. I've got a bunch of match ammo made up since the hurricanes ruined my rifle ranges, and extra leave saved up. Good reason for a gaggle of classy folks to get out there somewhere, shoot all day, and then find a nice piece of sizzling rare cow afterwards to muck on, while washing things down with Shiner Bock. :D
 
I just posted it over at TFL...

A _serious_ shootin' match.

Okay - here's the challenge...

Three matches.

1) A handgun course to be determined by either Scott, our club president (who is into that sorta thing), or John Ross (who is also into that sorta thing, and who may end up kickin' something a little stranger). My only stipulation is that it must be major, and involve at least one reload. Points will be awarded based on 50% score, and 50% style. Judges will be the other competitors.

2) Silhouettes. Pigs, chickens, sheep, etc. - you know the drill. Various distances. Whatever rifle you want, no armor piercing stuff.

3) A 10 shot group on a standard NBRSA 200 yard benchrest target, with whatever rifle you choose to bring.

I'll buy the beer (Shiner!) for afterwards, and furnish some room for people who shouldn't be driving.

Seein' as how I'm a government trained Marksman (hey, my whole relay was screwed... the grass had grown up, and when we made one of the DIs shoot the course, he flunked too... and then made us swingblade the range... but I scored expert on grenades... musta been all that fishing...), I'll put up prize money of $1 per event, which must be signed by all other participants prior to framing.

Why $1? We're friends, let's stay friends.

Why the signatures? Friendship only goes so far.

Oh, and on the subject of Little Brother and the wholesale lot of ebay salt shakers... I just bought six dozen shot glasses... I'm serious.
 
Yeah, but it ain't THIS three gun match.

I'll loan the .45 that I keep in nightstand to whoever needs it.

I'll loan a passable .308 to whoever needs it.

And I'll loan a 6PPC Unlimited benchrest rifle to whoever needs it.

Are you ready to party?

And, more importantly... Are you ready to eat, drink, and be merry?
 
Bogie,

Link please? I looked in the forums I thought it would be and couldn't find it.

I'm from central Illinois and would like an opportunity to meet some of the peoples who's posts I've been reading for the last few years.

I've got a really screwy work schedule so it might not be doable, but if it is, I'd sure like to be there.


Okay, I found the link : bogie's thee gun post at TFL



Thanks,

Keith

It'll be my first chance to rub elbows with my fellow THR/TFL cronies.

I'll bring the 1903A4, 6.5-06, and 700 PSS, for certain - other boomsticks upon request. Florida doesn't have much in the way of regional foodstuffs that one can't get elsewhere. Maybe raw oysters or littleneck clams?
