Folks - islam demands submission of non-believers - called dhimmi, and the act of self censoring oneself to comply with islamic rules/laws is called dhimmitude. So all those who say its not a "good idea" to draw mohammed are already on board with islam - even if you don't intend to be - becAuse you have submitted

Yes this is about PROVOCATION. Radical Muslims and their open hatred and bigotery of other religions and cultures, and hatred of the west and freedom have PROVOKED decent people who champion freedom and the Constitution to send them a message by telling them they will not be intimidated by their threats and will not back down to them by drawing Muhammid cartoons.

You should have explained to the person that the word "ni$$er"has little to nothing to do with skin color and EVERYTHING to do with mentality and personal conduct.  Then you should have explained to the person that it is against your own personal code of conduct to consort with a 'ni$$er' and politely excused yourself because....well, they'll get the idea.         While i'm on the subject, I've met a lot of people from all walks of life.  Good and bad.  'ni$$ers' come in all colors, orientations and religions and if I were to tell the honest truth about it, I've met more white ones than black ones.  I have several black customers.  All DAMN FINE people.  They have a job, pay their bills, know/raise/love their kids.  The fact that their skin is four shades darker than my pasty azz means precisely SQUAT.  They'd be welcome at my table any day.  One in particular, I've had this very discussion with.  We both laugh because to anyone with half a grain of intelligence, racism is a joke.  As soon as  the country gets this through their cro-magnon brick thick skull, the sooner we can just get back to living.       ammosexual?  Heck yeah!  Whore of Babylon level ammosexual!!!!

Kick him in the balls. Tell him that I am holding a member of your family hostage, and you HAD to do it. It's ok to give him my name.

  Yep and yep.  We priced at roughly $12K more than I needed.  We got asking price, cash.  They sure as heck didn't offer 65% of the house's value as was suggested by FTE.   *shrug*   I'm just considering myself thankful and counting my blessing rather than worrying about counting dollars.

Where did you talk to him at? If it was at HIS place of employment I would raise the biggest stink I could because had you used that word they would have. And if at a place of employment let us know so we can avoid it. I would have a hard time not going ballistic. I am a successful white guy that is tired of people implying I should be guilty for enjoying the hard earned fruits of my labor. And just because I don't want to give more it does not mean I am a racist. Anyone can be as successful as me, probably more so, if they work at it. Kind of hard to be successful at anything if you are a perpetual victim that refuses to work while holding a hand out expecting me to give them my money.

Being offensive is important. If you don't use it, you risk losing it.

Didn't know you could bait muslims with cartoons. What's the season, and is there a bag limit?

I have absolutely zero dogs in this fight or fucks to give about this event. Still, I imagine quite a few of y'all will get get a chuckle out of this.

Finally got my very first 1911 - a Springfield Armory Loaded Parkerized. Sorry for the terrible pictures. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, but I did field strip it and do an initial cleaning. A couple of observations along those lines: 1. Everything I had read about the FLGR is absolutely true. Even using the included allen wrench, I didn't think I'd ever get the thing loose. And getting it back together after cleaning? Yeah, it was even more... interesting. May eventually go with the GI guide rod. 2. Even more difficult than the FLGR, however, was getting the slide stop back in - particularly the end closest to to the grip. There is a small piece of metal that protrudes slightly from the plunger tube (I think that's what it's called) that has to be depressed in order for the slide stop to go back in. Doing that without scratching your gun all to heck? Interesting... But in spite of the first-time challenges, there was something strangely fun about the whole thing. There's just something about working with a 1911 that is, well, pleasing... Provided I enjoy shooting it, looks like I may have found my handgun niche -- a very expensive niche... :D Thanks again for all the advice I receive here about what to get for my first one. So many good options... I'm confident this one won't be my last.

SEX AFTER DEATH A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come back and inform the other if there is sex after death. Their biggest fear was that there was no after life at all. After a long life together, the husband was the first to die. True to his word, he made the first contact: "Alice ...  Alice " "Is that you, Bob?" "Yes, I've come back like we agreed." "That's wonderful! What's it like?" "Well, I get up in the morning, I have sex. I have breakfast and then it's off to the golf course. I have sex again, bathe in the warm sun and then have sex a couple of more times. Then I have lunch (you'd be proud - lots of greens). Another romp around the golf course, then pretty much have sex the rest of the afternoon. After supper, it's back to the golf course again. Then it's more sex until late at night. I catch some much needed sleep and then the next day it starts all over again" "Oh, Bob, are you in Heaven?" "No...I'm a rabbit in  Saskatchewan

So I have been intrigued by qaudcopter's for a little while now and decided last week that I was going to get one just to play with and have some fun.  I have no experience with flying RC anything so my sensibility kicked in and after some research, I decided to order a fairly cheap quad to learn and play with.  My usual route is to go big or go home, but as it turns out, I am pretty impressed with this thing even though the whole setup was pretty cheap.  I will go into total cost in a bit.   After some research I decided that I wanted something that was a decent size that I knew could eventually carry a small camera.  There are a lot of beginner quad's out there for dirt cheap, $25-$35, but they were all smaller than what I was wanting.  I wanted something that I could fly outside, even in a light wind.  I spent a little more ($66) and bought a WL Toys V262.  It is about 2' in diameter and comes with a removable foam casing that can be removed once you learn how to fly it better.  As you will see in my video, mine still has it on (and will for a while longer).   While youtubing reviews, etc, I noticed a lot of people do some modifications to help it perform better and help the motors last longer.  I spend about another $30 on some bearings, two extra batteries, and 4 extra motors for later use.  These motors will last about 30 flights so having some spares was highly recommended.   For less than $100, I had everything I needed to start having some fun and knew I had the things I needed for some basic maintenance.   While waiting for the quad to arrive and in watching more videos, I came across many people using this small camera called the Mobius.  It is a 1080P camera that will record in 30FPS and 60fps at 720P.  The great part about it, it only cost $70.  I had expected to eventually get a GoPro to use with this (I had one and sent it back, but for this I think it is perfect), but decided that since I don't know how to fly, it was probably best to go with a cheaper option (for when I crash and burn) and this Mobius camera seemed to get great reviews.     So 3 days later, I have everything and decide to start playing.  I was amazed at just how well this little quad performed.  Even more impressive is the camera.  Keep in mind it is simply velcroed to the top of the quad in this video.  There is some vibration, but not as bad as I would have expected.  The video below is at my friends new house he is building.  As you will see, we both stink at flying, but I think for $180 total (I already had the sd card), this is pretty impressive.  I had it up to about 200-250ft at one point in my inaugural flight only to get it stuck in a tree (250 yards from where I was) from too much wind and not being able to fly it back to me, but in this video, we keep it a lot lower and it goes pretty good.      I know there have been a few discussion on here about qauds/drones and thought this may be of interest to some others.  It is really fun.  Now to just get more flight time before I spend the money on a much better quad.   This is what I bought. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/9269803716/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GT2B4R6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0072AEHIC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NFEY7Y8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNRdTH-wu8U

Cut and dremel the A2 down? Nothing's more secure than a pinned gas block.

Event organizers were required by the Center to pay for additional security as a prerequisite to holding the event. Good call, I'd say. Odd how those holding pro islamic events (or events bashing Christianity) aren't required to procure additional security, but Christianity or pro freedom groups are the problem.

I live in hendersonville, come on over and I'd be happy to show you how to do it and let you do it to get the experience. 

Why, exactly, are we concerned with provoking a cult that has been in a declared war on our culture for 1400 years, a declared war on our country for 36 years? Has it become prudent to remain silent in the face of barbarity?

Anyone who can make love to his 1911, should probably stick to that. I don't see him being of much use to any woman in his life. 45 caliber, or hundredths of an inch diameter, may be considered "big bore" in the land of pistols but not anywhere else, if you know what I mean.

Most people had never heard of? You don't follow boxing, do you?

Good idea,tarheelbball. But don't be afraid of the "idiot scratch." It is a sign of advancement in the gun world. You've gotten into a 1911 and won.

Well wife came home late last night. I had a sneaking suspicion she was buying me a gift. Low and behold she got me a Glock 29. Ever since reading TGO David's post about 10mm underwood I've been thinking about getting one. I've really enjoyed my 26 so I thought a 29 would be a good fit. So far I love it. Gen 4 feels great in my hand and point perfect. Now to pick up some ammo and have a little range time!

   I'm sure his hands are beat to death from his smartphone screen and starbucks coffee.

If I've learned one thing from liberals it's when you are losing a fight just start calling your opponent names.

This one is headed to Hawaii made to the new owners requests. It's 1/4" thick 1095 carbon steel with textured black G10 scales. Man oh man is it a hoss..... :rofl:

Your friend needs new friends....just sayin'.

I like you worked my whole life for my meager existence....that I'm quite happy with by the way. Nobody gave my wife or myself a damn thing nor did we ever sit on our ass and take a handout. I don't owe anyone a damn thing and nobody owes me anything either. I'm sick of the left trying to make me feel bad cause some loser chooses to be lazy and expect a handout on my dime. Screw that.

The Rossi in .45 Colt gets my vote. 45/70 is a bit overkill in the brush. If youre scooting out to 100 or better, then yeah, use it but inside 50-75 yards, the 45 Colt will get it done. Wish you lived closer. You could come by and we'd cast you up some 340g bullets from a custom mold I had cut. Guaranteed to punch a hole in a pig and make him spew like a hot can of beer! The large meplat makes very large blood spigots.

  It's was as much prudence as a blessing and it was the smart play.  Going the other route, you would have had to deal with an empty house with a 2nd mortgage/insurance/property tax hit to worry about until you sold it.   But this is America, and for some people selling a house equates to a hustle opportunity.  When the day comes that I buy and sell a house, I'll be as thankful as you to just avoid a loss in the giant shell game that is the housing market.   Piece of mind, having the deed done (no pun intended) and a small profit to squirrel away or apply to your current house are reward enough.

You can't reason with a lib. They are mental sexual. I prefer the title ammo organizer :)

I watched it. Meh. Disappointing. It looked like a warm-up. Not even a drop of blood for 36 minutes and $400 million? Sheesh. Yea, I've heard three people so far say they had never heard of Pacquiao... and about a dozen people gasp and give them that "From under what rock did you just crawl out?!" look of bewilderment. Lol!

  Season is 365 days/yr. No bag limit. Be prepared to piss off liberals too (I enjoy that part).

The way I see things ya missed the point, or ya don't like it....We have freedom of speech and association in this country... Ya seem to be advocating censorship in the name of " the common good"; along with a pretty good dose of '"...I know best"...I think that sounds a bit elitist ta me... Are you gonna be the censor for TGO only, or everybody at large...? By the way, I'm all for havin everybody have their say... Even the Westboro children... The point is that you nor anyone else is a "censor" in this country... Ya can argue about and criticize the venue and the value of the "exhibition", and have your day in the "arena of ideas"; just like they have theirs... Ya can't "censor" it, nor can the gubmt... Ya may have missed the discussion of the First Amendment in your civics class... Leroy Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Well, "Dustin" ain't right on the money either:     There are no restrictions/requirements regarding the transportation of hand guns or long guns in TN.     Comment makes no sense, as again, there are no requirements for transport of any firearm (other than one must not be prohibited from possession by law).   Of course his intent is well taken, but best to be completely accurate about firearm laws yourself if you're ranting about inaccurate coverage of them. :)   - OS

Disliking the Baltimore rioters doesn't make me a bigot. Calling them thugs doesn't make me racist. Disliking a 'religion' that tells its followers to enslave or kill nonbelievers, & subvert law and government to establish'religious' rule doesn't make me a bigot either. But go ahead and say it does, if you like. The word (like racist) has lost its sting. The ability to see something (or someone) for what it is, and the right to call it what it is, isn't something I am anxious to surrender.

Does anyone else remember the Muslim Day event held on the Texas State Capitol steps awhile back? They exercised their free speech right and were met with 1 woman protesting that their god is not our God. She was exercising her right to speak freely and was escorted away. No bullets went flying. The issue is actions vs. words. I can say that my dog's crap is holy and doesn't stink but when I fling that sh*t in you face for you to smell....that crosses the line. Actions make the difference. The Muslims are pushing their beliefs by violent actions and it is not by a militant minority. Our God given, Constitionally protected rights are being eroded day by day. A time is soon approaching that we stand up and fight or kneel down and die. Actions make the difference. God save the USA.

Freedom of Speech simply means the government can't prosecute you for speaking against them. Speech has plenty of consequences the Constitution can't protect you from. Plenty of people have been fired for speech, killed for speech. Say what you have to say, but know the consequences and be ready to face them.

  This is the first thought that I had.  I don't think we should live in fear of drawing political cartoons, but there is also consequences for actions, and sometimes common sense should be exercised for the interest of safety.  

We are getting close to having this thread "censored". If we are going to start attacking I will lock and hide this thread so quick everyone here will think they have Alzheimers because they swear there was a thread they can no longer find. Keep it civil, first, last and only warning. I will not allow TGO to fall back into the depths of negativity.

I have a TRP and it come with a FLGR ,swapped it out before I even hit the range with a Wilson GI style   But you have a nice 1911 and it will shoot great regardless of which style you go with   good luck

    Be very, Very, careful btq96r.   173rdABN will take one look at that 16 inch barrel and he'll have you efile another Form1 right then and there so that he can crop it down for another lower!    I think his rule is that there is no such thing as too many SBRs!  :tough:     Heck he was eyeing my 14.7 pinned and welded M4 today wanting to "Make it Right."   :dunno:     

Gotta love this community.

Tricky Nicky forced me in there,then metalhead made me buy a new Performance Center nine Mill. The closest thing to sand my kids feet will ever touch is at Nashville Shores. We will never eat steak on Friday again it will be hot dogs five days a week till the end of this year. No more cowboy boots no more nice clothing for school. From now on my family has to live at the dollar store. Thanks tricky Nicky for introducing me to a shop where everybody is friendly they have fair deals on firearms and is just a blast in general to go to of course it's all your fault lol.... be back in a bit have to go to dollar store for catsup and mustard for this months meals. Only kidding but man, guns and leather keeps coming through when no one else has it, love shopping there, plus it's nice to get a price over the phone w a friendly call! s

  Marshall's findings, while interesting data points, are often discounted nowadays because of questions about his data, the validity of his approach and - most importantly - a relatively small sample size for some firearms as well as some types/weights of bullets, loadings and so on within a particular firearm type.   It is my understanding - and I could certainly be wrong - that the .357 was originally developed to use a 158 grain loading and that most if not all revolvers with fixed sights have the sights more or less set up to use a 158 grain loading for POI to be closest to POA.  In fact, I have read cautions against excessive use of the lighter weight bullets - especially 110 grain but even 125 grain to some extent - because they can supposedly cause increased flame cutting and other problems that, over time, can prematurely wear the revolver.   You cited Ballistics by the Inch in previous posts.  If you notice, on the heavier end of things the .357 outperforms the 9mm.  The Federal Hydra-Shok 147 grain 9mm hit 837 fps from their two inch test barrel.  The 158 grain .357 Hydra-Shok hit 858 fps.  Not a huge difference but 21 fps faster with a bullet that is 11 grains heavier does give the 'w' to .357.   How about real world guns?  Well, the 147 grain 9mm Hydra-Shok hit 933 fps from the 3 inch barrel of a Para LDS Carry 9.  The 158 grain .357 Hydra-Shok hit 1154 fps from the three inch barrel of a Bond Arms Texas Defender.  I think that is a good comparison because, like 9mm semi, the Bond Arms doesn't have a cylinder gap through which to loose pressure.  That is a 221 fps difference with a bullet that weighs 11 grains more.  Once, again, the .357 gets the 'w'.   I think you do have a point in that the .357 doesn't show such marked increases in performance out of shorter barrels as it does out of 4 inch barrels and up.  Further, .357 appears to show marked velocity increases once you get into carbine/rifle length barrels whereas 9mm - for some, odd reason - doesn't really gain that much velocity from being fired from a carbine over being fired from a handgun.  Anyhow, the lack of marked increase in performance from a super-short barrel as compared to the increase in recoil, noise and fireball are some of the reasons that some folks cite to support the idea that - in a snubbie revolver - one is just as well off if not better off with .38 Special.  Some even say the same about .38+P vs. standard pressure in that they don't believe the rather minimal velocity increases from a snub barrel vs. the increased recoil and so on make +P 'worth it' in a snub.  I am not so sure on that as I believe that 'some' .38+P likely has just enough of an increase in velocity to make the difference between a JHP expanding correctly or not.  The thing is, going by the data on BBTI, to even get close to a .357 you would have to use +P ammo in the 9mm.  Using +P 9mm, IMO, would pretty well negate any potential advantage the 9mm might have in the areas of recoil and so on.  In other words, at standard pressure loadings the .357 beats the 9mm in velocity but the 9mm might have less recoil and so on.  In +P loads the 9mm might match or even slightly beat the .357 for velocity but probably not by any significant amount and you give up the advantages of less recoil, etc. in the 9mm.   My honest opinion is that - with good JHP ammo - one is about as likely to put an assailant on his butt as the other.  In fact, .when talking about snubbie revolvers, my guess would be that a .38 Special with good JHP ammo would perform pretty close to those two on the 'put the assailant on his butt' scale.  To go a step further, I honestly think that if an assailant keeps coming after someone puts a good JHP .380 round or two in him with good shot placement from a P3AT, LCP, etc. then it probably wouldn't make much difference if the intended victim had a 9mm, etc. instead as nothing short of a 12 gauge is likely to stop such an assailant cold.  But that is just my opinion. 

Just like an ugly, cur dog it'll stay by your side, eat what you feed it and never have to go to the vet.

This :up:

Don't forget a good X class CME. The sun can have it out for us, too....

You really need to talk to her about it. Try to impress upon her that she is the only person that can protect the kids from an attacker while away from you. I hate to fear monger anyone but it is better to fear monger than to let them become a victim. Also, make sure her holster is comfortable. Most people who only carry occasionally do so because it is uncomfortable. If all she has is a plastic holster that is probably why. One thing that might get her carry more often is to have a custom holster made for her. Perhaps in her favorite color or with her favorite design or even some bling. Nothing wrong with a blinged out holster that she would show off to her girlfriends. Then when you figure out what she would like give it to her on a special occasion. Just like a nice necklace or ring she will wear it if there is a sentimental connection. Women do not like black or plain things, they want things that make them feel prettier and if a holster does that she will wear it all the time. And if she gets it from you, as opposed to buying it in a store, she will have no choice but to carry it to prove to her girlfriends what a great guy you are.

  That's pretty much the way it happened with me as well. lol

Nice one but just like AR's , now you'll just have to have more .... Smaller ones , shinier ones , lighter ones ....

  Should it not feed reliably almost certainly the mag, quite thin steel. Tweak the lips closer together usually fixes it. Rounds must angle upward in the mag.   - OS
