The NBC/ Wall Street journal poll had a 12 percent more dem than repub sampling. They also had a 20 percent sampling of government employees when nationally only about 8 percent of the country are gov. employees. Point is if you ask the right people you can get what ever result you want. I remember when Bush went under 40 percent it was on every news cast nightly. My message to the politicians ignore the polls just do the right thing.

I am not as good as I once was but I am good once as I ever was.

Erwin is as stated back there a ways. I know they hung a elephant with a crane once. I saw a old newspaper picture of it. I think the elephant escaped during a circus and killed someone so the good folks in Erwin took a crane and hung the elephant. Not sure what that says about the town but sure is a good story. I think Raoul has it correct on the story about the sheriff.

I just completed my first AR build. I installed the trigger screw that was being sold on TGO forums. Here is the problem. The hammer will not reset after a shot. The next round is in the chamber but I have to charge the hammer to fire. I was wondering if I needed to back the trigger screw out a little more, I did the quarter turn as the instructions said. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't have one to sell but I use one every day. The best battery ever on a phone. I hardly ever have to charge it during the day, all others 2 pm at best before needing charged. Love the phone. Good luck picking one up.

2 t shirts, 1 says "DADD dads against daughters dating. Shoot the first one and the word gets around" 2nd says "Homeland defense begins with the second amendment" with a pic of a hand gun.

Some states have very good LLC protection. Nevada is one I think Mass. Is another. You can get a LLC from them and have much more protection. Do a google on best state to file a LLC in.

Well If you lived in Walmart I could see your point. I was talking about your neighbors and your neighborhood. If Using a ridicules analogy helps you feel better fine. Stick your head in the sand and as long as nobody comes after you you're good. Glad I am not your neighbor.

Good for you. If that person goes on to break into someone's house and kills them you can feel real good about nobody saying what you did or did not do was wrong. I am sure your neighbors feel good knowing you will do everything possible to help them as long as you do not have to get out of your truck.

I do not think Z was a brawler or emboldened by having his gun. I really do not think he thought there would be a confrontation. Many times the best way to keep someone from doing something illegal is for them to think they are being watched. Most of the time the person being watched goes on about his business knowing he was doing nothing wrong or they move on to a different location where they are not being watched. I have done this many times with shoplifters or those I thought were shoplifting.

He probably thought he was doing what was expected of him as community watch leader. If you think getting out of his truck makes him a fool then that's your call, I do not. I do not know Z so I cannot say he is a fool, nor do I know TM so the same applies. Hopefully you never make a call that thousands of people will dissect every little move you made and determine what a fool you are.

Maybe you all heard something I did not. I listened to the 911 call while Z was out walking around, it did not sound like he was running or trying to chase someone down. He was talking calmly about what was going on. When did the chasing take place?

If it makes any of you feel any better Z's life will never be the same. He will pay for his choices for the rest of his life, always looking over his shoulder, never at peace. I doubt he will ever be able to pay for his legal expenses as it is more less those in the future. Maybe you get some satisfaction from that, I don't. Some say the system worked, I say no it didn't. Charges that should have never been filled were, that tells me the system did not work. Yea Z was Found not guilty but in the court of public opinion he has been ruined. If he were to try and cash in, who would promote him. I cannot see anybody other than some conservative media folks allowing him to promote whatever he is trying to sell. Can you see him going on a job interview? How is he supposed to provide for his family now? I would contribute to a Z fund or buy his book just because I feel bad that his life has been ruined. If it gives some of you satisfaction that his life has been ruined, I truly feel sorry for you as well.

If you are not doing anything wrong you would care less if someone was keeping an eye on you. I have been in retail stores and someone over the intercom says "security scan section whatever" we'll I could care less because I am not stealing anything, but the shoplifter will respond much differently. Those doing something wrong tend to get angry when they get caught. Follow me all you want, watch me all you want. I would only care if I was doing something I did not want others to see.

I was with a guy that did the brake check to a tailgater and was ticketed for causing a accident. Purposely irritating someone just because you can never has made any sense to me. Sometimes when you try to teach someone else a lesson you learn one yourself.

My wife worked for a manufacturing comp. for 16 years. The Feds would come in from time to time and fine them a 100 grand for this or that. It's was a non union low paying company. It was still cheaper to buy china made products. They adjusted the quality so there was no difference from what was made here. The lead time in ordering was the biggest problem. Gov. Regs, insurance, and all the other forced expenses on this company forced them to go from 70+ employees to 10 or 12.

I do not say never very often but if I ever half to start mowing my yard again I will buy a z turn. Home owner use should be 20 plus years. The time it will save you is much more valuable. I can see no reason to ever buy a tractor style mower again. You can find a deal on a new z turn and get 90 days same as cash at least maybe longer. GO WITH A Z TURN. If it is just not in the cards pick up a used good name rider for under a grand and save up for a better mower. I sold a Snapper 18hp with 800 hrs. for $400 a few months ago. Had the mower for 22 yrs. Good mowers at decent prices are out there.

Ok,ok before you bible scholars get started, I guess one could say that Mary was artificially inseminated, but not by a medical procedure so I think I am still correct on that and Abraham used a surrogate mother for his first born but that still took him knowing her (OS would say the old in and out). I'm going to bed, good night.

At the time of Adam and Eve (which was what we were talking about)those options were not available. Again other than Mary the mother of Jesus (thats for you c.a.) i know of no other way Adam and Eve could have gotten pregnant other than the "old in and out". OS you sure have a way with words.

I never said you offended me in any way. I am very hard to offend. I think 6.8 may have saw it that way but I didn't. Hopefully my last post on this explained my train of thought in that part of the discussion. C.A., Absolutely no offense taken. Iron sharpens iron.

The discussion would probably have to start with why the bible is my point of reference, And what would there's would be and why.

Would you feel better if I had said " other than Mary the mother of Jesus" I only know of one way that can happen? If so my bad for leaving that out. It still does not change the fact that the same word "know" was used in those two places in the bible that was part of the discussion. That was the point of the statement. Man we can chase some rabbits can't we.

I do not recall calling your religious viewpoints morally repugnant. I may disagree, but you have the right to believe what you want. I tend to stay away from statements that start with "i think" or "i believe". I do try to back up my beliefs with scripture. If the scripture has offended you there is not much i can do about that. I have learned to interpret scripture with other scripture and have found the bible to be consistent on sexual morality issues including homosexuality. I only have 30 years of studying the word so I still have a lot to learn. If you have bible verses that back up your position I would be interested in hearing them. I have I enjoyed the debate so far especially that it has stayed by and large non personal.

Not sure your point here, if your talking about Mary the mother of Jesus. Ok, but for Adam and Eve and the use of the word know, I stand by my statement.

Not a hater, but I do have a serious lack of trust when I comes to most LE. I do not want to group them all together but man if they want to make your life miserable they can. Justified or not.
