Admiral relieved of command. Makes me wonder more...
piercedan replied to a topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
[quote name='6.8 AR' timestamp='1351873157' post='837800'] The media may, but may get him impeached if re-elected. It should get him thrown in jail, either way. He broke his oath to protect and defend Americans. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/quote] Hate to say it, but the only thing he will see is four more years at best or millions in the lecture circuit at worst. None of this is likely to stick. -
300 Blackout as a "End of Times" caliber
piercedan replied to Dolomite_supafly's topic in Survival and Preparedness
The ability to have a 5.56 upper on hand in case you need to use that ammo makes the 300 even more attractive. That way you have a fall back if you can't make any reloads and are on the move. -

This is how you turn a 220 lb man in to a tippy toed sissy. I usually try to catch the bug or spider and put them outside, but anything approaching this size must die.

Wait a minute, I thought you could buy a gun as a gift or for your spouse and it not be a straw purchase.

I stopped watching Tom Cruise when he went all wacko with the scientology nonsense.

That is some fine work. I'd never use it as it is too beautiful. I'd just show it off every chance I got.

Looks like a fun little gun.

Walked right in to that one. :0)

Too bad they don't auction stuff like that. -
Oh, you're just stirring the pot ain't you? :0)

This made me check the price, OMG! Well, I guess if you want quality, there's a price for it. -
Cop Shoots and Kills Unarmed Ex-Soldier Near LaGuardia
piercedan replied to daddyo's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
This is the truth of the matter. All LE vehicles should have good recording equipment for everyone's safety. People lie, cops and civilians alike. It's called CYA for a reason. -

Wow, are those giraffe/human hybrids?

Welcome! Hope you enjoy yourself!

Hopefully you would chill it first. Straight from the tap would be a sure sign of alcoholism.

I think the problem with this argument is that we are categorizing drugs by virtue of legality while arguing social impact. Grouping drugs by their level of danger would serve the argument better. Alcohol shouldn't enjoy a special pass because it happens to be legal. Actually, if you were to categorize based upon danger level, there are many drugs that would be considered more safe than alcohol. I'm not trying to beat up on alcohol use, don't mistake that. It is simply my sounding board to say that you can't claim special status for alcohol and point the finger at those other "evil" drugs. It is a mistake to cast marijuana into the group with crack, meth, PCP, or whatever. Doing so attempts to give the ability to dismiss it as one of those evil (more dangerous) drugs. It is not. If you say it is, I would guess you really don't have much experience with it. It is not nearly as dangerous as the previously mentioned drugs, or dare I say, alcohol. Yes, I know many people who smoke MJ and are very productive, family oriented, and caring people. My father is one. He's worked very hard since he was young. 30 years in the oilfields, another 20 as a cattle rancher. It helps him with the pain of hard work and makes his day a little more enjoyable. He's raised a family, been faithful to his wife, generous to his friends and family, and has a solid moral character. Just like I can't say that every person who takes in alcohol is an abusive alcoholic, though I've known several. You can't paint a wide brush and say every person who does some other drug besides alcohol is some degenerate.

Yes, there is no accounting for stupid.

I will qualify my vote. As said, the Iphone usually is very stable and works very well and very intuitively. If you are just a normal user, you won't go wrong with one. Actually, you will enjoy it. On the other hand, if you are a geek or advanced user, android is a more capable platform. Apple does control the software to a greater degree than OEM's that use android. This has the effect of limiting you to a degree, but also providing a very stable (if vanilla) experience. Of course you can jailbreak, but then you might as well go Android at that point. It all comes down to the kind of user you are. Three year olds to grandma's can use the Iphone. :0)

It doesn't matter what it tastes like. It is a drug. Thankfully for us, society has saw fit to allow us to partake. Notice I said "allow". This is the flaw in reasoning. It seems absurd to argue so fervently for the allowance of one drug and the denial of others based upon a personal preference. Alcohol is a dangerous drug and to say otherwise would be a pretty bold and unsupported claim. So what gives someone the right to say their dangerous drug of choice is okay to use, but someone else should not have that choice? Bringing in the gun ownership argument makes my point. I think automatic weapons should be legal to own without having to jump through hoops and pay exorbitant amounts of money to do so. Should we only allow .22 rifles to be owned? Should we only allow 5 shot magazines and only guns with a "sporting" use? Drugs are drugs. There is responsible drug use and irresponsible drug use. I've seen examples of both.

Alcohol use is portrayed as acceptable and in some ways desirable. Alcohol use is drug use pure and simple. It just so happens that it is a drug that has been accepted by society, so it is okay.

I saw the S3 and it is awesome! I've got an S2 Skyrocket and an Iphone 4GS(work). I prefer the android.

That is IF they will consider another point of view.
