  3. It would be worth it. So, how about Obama going down to Alabama and telling that man if he releases that poor little boy, he'll step down as President? Afterall, wouldn't it be worth it?

  4. Jeebus has the media nothing else to report on? How about crushing debt, no jobs, Obozo's leftist socialist policys, the cost of Obozo care, worthless unions and politicians and so on. Oh wait.....nobody cares about that...just destroying the Constitution and everything it stands for. Assholes....

  5. My parents moved to Idaho a few years back, and one of the things I've really missed is the weekend "do-it-yourself" projects my dad and I used to get into when they lived down the road. So when dad told me they'd been in town for a few weeks for a conference, I started trying to find a fun project for us to work on. Dad could only really commit to one day - so I had to find a project that we could do pretty quickly, but I was at a loss. So this past week I was putting the Christmas decorations in the storage room and I noticed this old TV stand. It's been collecting dust (and my overwhelming collection of White Wolf books) for years - basically since we got the flat screen. The wife wanted to throw it away, but I always held out hope that I'd use it for something cool. Today was its day. After talking over the possibilities with dad, we decided to turn this old thing into a gun cabinet. Right now I don't have any way of securing my guns from kids or houseguests. So we headed to home depot early this morning and got some 3/4in maple plywood and got to work. Stuff we already did: - Fixed the doors so they actually close and stay closed properly. - Doubled up the bottom to be sure it could hold the weight - Removed the shelf from the center to make room for the guns (measured it to 5" taller than the Mosin) - Added a stabilizer down the center to hold shelves on either side and to allow me to install a lock. - Added a reinforced back. It didn't have a back before. - Added a reinforced shelf on the right side to catch the door. That shelf will hold my valet where I dump my wallet, keys, etc every day. - Added a shelf for the pistols (10" tall) on the left side. - Reattached a bunch of the molding. Replacing double-sided tape with brass screws. - Replaced the entire top, as it had some water damage from a plant my wife kept up there when it served as a TV stand. Things left to do on it next Saturday after the gun show: - Binding the doors together on the left side, to make one big door. - Install 5 more shelves on the right side - two below the one there now (for Ammo) and three above (Belts, holsters, knives). - Install the pegs that will hold the guns along the left wall. I've got some long wooden cabinet door pull handles for this. - Install the lock on the left door so I can really secure the guns from prying child hands. Things I'll probably do on my own before I put it in the house: - Put a cleat along the bottom to stop the bottom doors and hold the padding. - Stain all the new wood. Refinish (light sanding and light stain) the existing wood. - Put some rubber or felt padding in the left side floor to protect the rifle stocks. - Install battery powered lights on both sides, so I can see back onto the shelves. - Put some hooks on the inside of both doors for hanging.... stuff. - Hang something cool along the back wall. I'm thinking a big metal barn star painted red. I'll post more pictures as the project progresses.

  6. Just linking as the release is oddly worded:   http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/wh-releases-photo-obama-shooting-gun_699234.html   Is there anything "Manly" that he doesn't look awkward as hell doing?

  8. With this administration I have learned while watching this hand (The AWB), what is the other hand doing (Amnesty For Illegal Aliens). I don't think even mighty O thinks he can get the AWB past the house or at least I hope not. Seems to me while we are focused on the 2nd he is pushing for 11-20 million new democrat voters. Stay all over congress about the 2nd, but if you oppose amnesty watch the other hand. I feel like we are being played.

This is so great, I can't tell you how great I think it is, it's so great. :) Lots of blurbs on the web here and there, but nowhere better than this in American Rifleman, so I just scanned the thing. And the priceless part is that Rahm "DeadFish" Emanuel had to sign some of the checks personally!! (click on pic to expand to full size to read it): - OS

  21. I love how the media will reference something from a movie as if it is true. Hollywood used a .50 Barrett in the SWAT movie a few years back. In reality, just about anything can bring down an aircraft if it damages the engine. A .303 bolt action Enfield brought down a AH-64 Apache helicopter in Iraq. Better add that hundred year old rifle to the ban list.

  22. Trying to do some research on this story, and not fining out much. It seems like the Sgt's brother is the source and is asking for money for a "legal defense fund". I'm always suspicious of one-sided stories and a request for money. It would be nice if the reporter would get a statement from the PD or at least get the court papers.

  30. No matter how you slice it, turning someone into a felon for possessing a spring, piece of plastic and a small piece of aluminum is absolutely crazy. These aren't exactly bomb components here. This is the kind of crap that happens in Europe and we laugh about what a police state they live in. This is insanity.

  32. We've been down this road before back in the 80's, it was called Simpson-Mazzoli. Same BS, different name. I'm not expecting anything worth a siht to become of it.   All part of the slide of hand, diversion and division and wasting our tax dollars is all this administration is good at.

  36. You don't have to ship them all home. You get tough on the employers that hire them and they will take care of themselves. When the jobs dry up they will go back home.   If they don't seal the boarder before they do anything the problem is going to be many times worse in a few years. When the illegals get a pass that will only make more come for the hope that they will also get a pass.   Here is the real deal- Dems see more votes if they can turn more of them into voting citizens. The reps. think that they can steal some of the hispanic votes if they go along with this mess. Personally, I don't think the reps. will gain very many votes because the illegals also want handouts that the dems like to hand out.     Unless BHO really screws things up ( He's going to really screw things up but I'm takling about something that screws the "free cheese" people), I don't see us winning a president election in the forseeable future. There's just too many "free cheese" people out there and BHO is going to appeal to more and more in his second term. I do think we still have a chance to hold good numbers in congress though

  38.   I think that the demagnetization approach is the best.  We didn't pay to import them, so we shouldn't have to pay to export them.  Cut off all forms of benefit to them, no jobs, no welfare, no social security, no health care and then they will self-deport.  They walked here, they can walk home.   Many have no intention of becoming Americans.  They work and send the money they make back to Mexico.  Many Super Mercado's off FREE money orders.  Why do you think that is?  I wonder which govt. is subsidizing that, U.S. or Mexico?  Maybe both.

  39. Standard Hospital Pricing Procedure In the hospital the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where a family member lay gravely ill. inally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber. "I'm afraid I'm the bearer of bad news," he said as he surveyed the worried faces. "The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant. It's an experimental procedure, very risky, but it is the only hope. Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay for the BRAIN." The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a time, someone asked, "How much will a brain cost?" The doctor quickly responded, "$5,000 for a Democrat's brain; $200 for a Republican's brain." The moment turned awkward. Some of the Democrats actually had to 'try' to not smile, avoiding eye contact with the Republicans. A man unable to control his curiosity, finally blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask, "Why is the Democrat's brain so much more than a Republican's brain?" The doctor smiled and explained to the entire group, " It's just standard pricing procedure. We have to price the Republicans' brains a lot lower because they're used."
