Your friend needs to file a complaint with the Police department. They were 100% wrong about the round in the chamber. And I have never heard of a police officer running a s/n without probable cause. Where and when did this happen and what police department?3 points

I'm sure they make small talk, just like most talk shows during a break. Probably goes something like this: Ted: "So, Peirs, I hear you have a vagina where most men have a penis."3 points

--There are some sick bastards supporting him on twitter And I want it 100% clear that I do not support him, he lost all that by killing. I just wonder.... what happened here, really.2 points

Bullet holes in the windshield right at the driver, and especially the ones in the back of the truck... I hope those cops get fired and put in jail, and the police department goes bankrupt from lawsuits. I'm all for supporting the police in almost every manner, but bullet holes in the back of a truck? He obviously wasn't trying to get out or run them over.. And hope they get exactly what a civilian would get if they were randomly shooting people that posed no threat.2 points

I guess vehicle manufacturers had better take note. If someone kills someone else intentionally with a Chevy, 0bama Motors might get sued.2 points

Having lived most of my life in Fl, I think they are using this as justification to go fishing for much bigger things. Stop someone, find faulty equipment,license, etc. Then it is game on, Any guns?,any drugs?, mind if I look in your trunk?2 points

I don't think this would ever survive all the court challenges it would face. I still believe the ultimate goal of the libs right now is the universal background checks, hence, hidden gun registry. All these ridiculous proposals are meant as smoke screens to make the background checks look like the lesser of the evils.2 points

For hundreds of years we have had weapons, now all of a sudden, some politician gets their panties in a wad and wants to tax me under the guise of calling it 'insurance' (where have I heard this before) because why? Have guns become so much more violent in the last 7 weeks? Is insurance magical? Will it prevent criminals from committing crimes because they will fear their premiums will go up? If the government thugs make everyone get liability insurance I promise you, every family member of every little punk killed in the commission of a crime will find some way to work the system and sue the victim.2 points

I hope they get him before he kills anymore anybody. It would really be awesome if an armed citizen were to stop him. In regards to his manifesto, who needs an iPod? Who needs an iPhone? Who needs steak? Bologna is good enough. Who needs toilet paper? There are leaves. Who "needs" oxygen? The list of stupidity goes on.2 points

So my wife and I decided to do a little metal detecting. We were in an area that probably hasn't had a lot of people shooting in it for a very long time. During out adventures I got a blip about something small about 6" down. As she dug she found an unfired 22 that was at least 4" in the soil. It was pretty well packed soil so the round had been buried for quite some time. It was on the side of a hill that I frequented as a kid, some 35 years ago. Not saying the round was 35 years old but it was under 4+ inches of soil so it wasn't placed there yesterday. Here is the picture as found: I was able to determine it was a Federal. I have no clue why the tip was like that though. The lead did have white corrosion. So the next thing that pops into my head is I wonder if it will fire? I grab my Taurus PT22 because I could care less if the bore gets scratched. I chamber it, which was hard becuse of the dirt and corrosion, and I pull the trigger. BANG!!! Although it didn't extract it did in fact go off which I do find this pretty amazing. Dolomite2 points

You could have sold that round for at least five bucks in the walmart parking lot. :rofl:2 points

You should send your testimonial to Federal with a pitch for an ad campaign. Maybe they'll send you some free stuff.2 points

This ^^^^^ I placed multiple orders for .223/5.56 with them at around 10:15pm on Nov. 6th (if that tells you anything), and I have now received every one of them, two just last week (FedEx - left on doorstep - no signature required). They will fulfill backorders by date, not newer orders. They are very reputable and their customer service is excellent.2 points

4th Amendment. I don't suppose I'd decline an officer if he asked to run my numbers, but doing it without consent while at the same time not having PC to think it's stolen doesn't pass the sniff test. That would be like a cop seeing me on a cell phone and demanding I hand it over so he can run the IMEI number to determine if it is stolen. Total BS.2 points

Yeah, but regular folks get a by for being ignorant. Someone who is enforcing the law needs to know better. I would have corrected those officers if they said such a thing. I can only imagine they would disagree with me and be forced to take me to jail when I re chamber a round. I'm not sure what my recourse would be for being arrested for breaking a law that doesn't exist, but I'm not going to be dictated the law from someone who doesn't even know it.2 points

It's not like your buddy is the first person to put thousands of rounds through a polymer lower. If it was a failure issue related to the lower two things would happen: 1. We'd see plenty of stories about it with actual fact, such as photographs/presentations 2. The company would be liable for injuries and damages related to such a failure.... and folks would know about it.1 point

I used to feel the same way, but the more I thought about it the more I came to realize it's another way to attack our freedoms. They are taking away enough of our rights without me voluntarily giving them up.1 point

I don't know about tin foil hats and "boogers" under the bed, but just a few years ago I would never have imagined we would have the president we have now. Not because he's black, but because of his history of exposure to government radicals and his sharing in their obsession with Marxist Socialism. also, the complete failure of vetting by a media that instead, has built a bubble of protection around him. Add to this his re-election by the very people that ignored all of this and even suffered through 4 years of unemployment and a failing economy. I simply blows my mind.1 point

Exactly! I just saw on the news, a blue pickup riddled with bullet holes. The LAPD shot two women in the truck delivering newspapers. Tell me again why these folks should have guns and I shouldn't?1 point

Don't worry about it being a hit against my family or me because it isn't. He should be removed from society and I honestly don't care how. I have talked to the officer that had a gun ppointed at him by my brother. And the officer said he should have pulled the trigger. Dolomite1 point

I sent 3 emails yesterday, and just sent 4 more. I'll sent more this afternoon. I think I'll call Corker and Alexander now. The NRA website and Ruger have the forms to send to all MY legislators. Is there a form out there on the Web that will let me send to ALL the senators and congressmen at once? I want to start emailing and calling offices that are for gun control and not just TN reps.1 point

I'm with you here Dave. I don't have any guns that I'm not supposed to have, I can say undoubtedly that every piece I own is not stolen. However, years ago I had a pistol stolen from me that I eventually got back. 2-3 years ago I got pulled over in Anderson County for rolling a stop sign. Deputy ran my serial numbers and told me to have a nice day, said he appreciated me informing him and didn't write me a ticket for the traffic violation. I didn't mind him running my numbers because I have nothing to hide and cops that do this will get more stolen guns back to their rightful owners.1 point

Quote from the letter in the OP: "That a proposal would not pass both houses of Congress is not a justification to circumvent Congress, but all the more reason why we must respect the constitutional process of law-making." They pretty much summed up his idea on legislation in 17 words.1 point

Gordon, You aren't going to like my answer, but I wish to be honest, and the best way to do that is to come right out and say it. Based on what I've read in your writings on her regarding your brother, he should not be walking around in society where he could buy a gun. He needs to be in prison for attempted murder, or a much better situation would be for him to be receiving treatment in an instution. Mental illness is a condition that doesn't seem to get the attention and treatment that physical illness gets. I would like to see more time, money, and attention directed at helping these people rather than trying to regulate anything they might hurt themselves or others with when left untreated. I've used your brother for an example, only because he happened to be the example in the original post. Please do not take this post as a slam against yourself or your family. I've seen very few instances where punishing everyone for the errors of a few was productive.1 point

No it is not, I call it "Worried" as I am. Our country is going down the tubes, slow at first, faster every month. Obamacare is gona fail, companes will cut hours to save money on Obamacare. Less money going into the system, it will fail. People will have less money to spend on goods and services that went up in price. The match is lit and close to the fuse on the rocket sled to hell.1 point

After 30 years Active Duty in the Marine Corps and three very credible civilian tactical courses I am proud to say that none of the training is really worth much. My environment pretty much presages that I am most likely to be attacked from 10-30 feet in a WALMART parking lot after dark! I pocket carry a S&W 642 snubby. I now practice drawing from my pocket aiming quickly at eye level and blasting into a 8" circle at 21 feet and shooting from the hip at 10 feet, again at an 8" circle. You would be surprised at how difficult this can be, It is a whole different world for shooting. I firmly believe in training to your most expected threat. I don't put myself in positions where I will need more. I am getting very good at hiding and escaping. The Marine Corps even endorses that, they call it Escape and Evasion (E & E). Some fights are not for a single combatant but some fights, up close, will happen too fast to avoid.1 point

have to agree ... when you see all the "miscellaneous" agencies becoming connected, it makes you raise an eyebrow. i hope i don't offend anyone by saying this ... but from the TSA agents i've seen, i doubt they would question any order given to them, even if to spy, disarm, or fire upon a law abiding citizen. get people at the top of these agencies not afraid to give the order, hire people under them that will follow, and there you go.1 point

Go ahead and get ready to bash me. I can take it. Screw this judge. He started this crap by getting offended when another latino said, "adios" to him and doubled her bond and then replied with, "adios." What an egomaniacal asshat. And I have never understood why the 1st Amendment to the Constitution ceases to be applicable simply because you're in a court of law. If the judge is an asshole you DO have every right to tell him so. But because his ego can't handle the truth he uses the force he has at his disposal to put this girl in jail for a month for flipping him the bird? Call me crazy but I think the wrong person is being incarcerated. Q: What do you call someone who finished last in their law school class? A: Your Honor.1 point
