Hey Luke I watch Waters go out and I almost cry because of the stupidity I hear, like when did Columbus discover America and get answers like 1944. There is a remedy to this though and I am proud to say my son and daughter-in-law will start home schooling our 2 oldest grand kids this year. They too are fed up with the crazy common core crap and the history that is not taught. What boils my blood is that the left has somehow gotten the authority to "change" history. It makes as much sense as them thinking they can change the climate, or is it the weight of the money in our wallets that they are really after. I believe it is a simple CONTROL issue and I ain't real good at being controlled, just ask my wife!!

Not a thing wrong with this set up. 10-4 on it's too danged hot for outdoor projects. Our coop is 1 of the next projects, but hey all I got is time that the Good Lord gives me.

I don't believe they make big enough sacks for the task!!

I certainly not a lawyer or knowledgeable about the law, but if the potus, atty gen and various politicians can circumvent the constitution does it really matter if they say "we" can't talk about a gun?? If "we the people" don't stand up now we are going to be like the Brits and Aussies and will have a single shot gun that is locked up in an amory across town that we can check out and shoot at an approved range for a fee of $$$$$ that the elitist dictate we pay. Hell the idiots in charge are more concerned with climate change which we all know cannot be controlled than they are about controlling the flood of illegal immigrants across the borders. If you think this is bad, just wait until the next Clinton gets in the WH, if you are able to purchase and have in your hand a slingshot you will be lucky!! Get ready it is coming to a town near you real fast!!! BTW I hope I am wrong about whom the next potus will be.

Crossfire thanks for the reminder, this is a day that I generally don't forget. Another few dates that most don't celebrate is June 5th, 1944 this is when the Allies entered Rome, also the Brits dumped 5,000 tons of bombs from 1,000 bombers on Normandy coast. And the one that really counts is May 8, 1945 which is VE day, victory in Europe. Thanks to all the vets and their families who paid prices we cannot comprehend for our freedoms.

Thanks for the pics Essone and to you and all the other vets. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AND SACRIFICE TO THIS GREAT COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had 3 BIL's 1 retired Army, 1 retired Navy and 1 short time Marine. I always wanted to go into the Air Force, but because they had this police action in Vietnam I decided against that. I really do appreciate all that the vets have done for my freedoms. I have a good friend that is a WWII vet and was on the Bataan death march and my wife's only remaining Uncle is a 90 year old WWII vet that served in the Pacific. I know I haven't been in the service, but consider myself a great patriot. OORAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

You are right myG30. And I personally think that was the idea all along. If we are not dilligent to take kids shooting, we will end up with a generation that are not marksman. I really feel like gun owners and their shooting abilities has always helped to keep the checks and balances in line to a degree.

Yea 1 UGLY old dog and 1 sheepdog!!

The word ammo sexual is new to me, but it is kind of arousing!! I mean just the mention of ammo and I know that I am going to stick it into a tight chamber and light the primer up!!! According to urban dictionary the definition is someone who feels affection for firearms. Often an attraction to the beauty and design of the gun, but also can refer to the love of the history, freedom, security, or tactile feel of the gun.Also typified by those who feel joy in being able to find and acquire ammunition to feed their firearms, especially at an affordable price

Yeah GM is too high, places like Bass Pro and the like with all the fancy fountains and fish tanks and such. Guess who gets to pay for all that fancy stuff? As for the price of 10 cents per round, look at it like this would you rather go out and spend $30+ to shoot 50 rounds of .38 or shoot 50 rounds of 22 at $5??? It is better than not shooting because either you don't have any ammo or don't want to use up your zombie stash.

Bersa I have several good black friends. I truly believe the main problem in the black community and is becoming more prevelant in the white community is the fact that daddy's are not there and raising the children. Now on the subject of hiring a certain percentage of any color or race is wrong. When schools became intergrated the tests were designed that most anyone could pass and thus the diplomas that high schools give out today are certainly not worth the one we have.

I see a bunch of coffee tables right there

Well Essone thanks for your service and sacrifice. I was going to wait until August to post it, but at my age I felt I better do it while it was on my bwain!!

For the younger generation on August 11, 1965 the Watts riots broke out in LA. For 5 days, 144 hours the riots continued that left 34 people dead, 118 gunshot victims, 1032 injured. One fireman, one deputy and one policeman dead. 3438 people arrested, the national guard was called out and 14,000 with tanks arrived. There were 288 stores completely burned out, all of the white owned businesses never returned. There were many so called factors that started this, one was overcrowding but this statistic doesn't wash as there were 14,000 blacks per square mile as opposed to 69,000 whites per square mile in NYC. There was $40 million in damages which in today's money is close to $300 million. All of this was started when a black man told a California Highway patrolman that he suspected a man driving drunk and gave the description, soon afterwards the car was spotted and the driver and 2 others who jumped on the officer were arrested. According to the testimony of the man arrested the patrolman was polite. I thought as the 50th anniversary is approaching that some of you younger people would like to know that the rioting like is happening in Baltimore has been going on for a long time. In fact when Lyndon Johnson signed the 1964 Civil Rights on July 2, 1964 act it took only 16 days for the Harlem riots to break out. In 1964 there were also riots in Rochester, Ny., Dixmoor, IL., Patterson, NJ. Philadelphia, Pa. Do some investigating these riots and they all are very similar. From 1900 to July 2, 1964 there had only been 3 riots, 2 in Harlem and 1 in Jacksonville, Fl, but there were 5 in 1964. Just a history lesson to think about. History does repeat itself when no changes are made btw.

I was thinking putting it next to the porta potty that is also full of $hit.

Excuse me haven't you posted this before? Or was that someone else on another forum? Huh what's my name??

I cast and reload and I have read countless threads on cost savings. First of all nobody I know gets paid for their free time watching the boob tube so why do I always see "you have to figure what your time is worth"? Plain and simple reloading is a hobby in itself, shooting is a hobby unless you are a paid merc. If you find reloading boring or work then go watch the boob tube and buy your ammo at whatever price you can find today!!

And that is why boys and girls to have all of your IFTA stickers current. I was stopped once for having an expired sticker. If you notice 18 wheelers they will have a row of them all different colors so that LE can look at a glance and see if you have this years color be it blue, yellow or whatever. If you will also notice how many felony stops start with a broken taillight or tag light? LE has to have a reason to pull you over then they can begin fishing for some fishes if something smells fishy!!

Just curious what was the price. Just in case I ever win the powerball and need to reduce the amount of money I have.

I think they will be blue helmet UN troops. But our troops have done it here in the U.S. in 2005 New Orleans, La. right after Katrina they went house to house confiscating legally owned firearms by innocent people. It is all a test to see if they can get them during a crisis. Crisis or not they were illegally confiscated. I understand that the troops had orders to shoot anyone that refused to give up the guns. It could have been real ugly if somebody had shot some of the troops.

We try not to meddle in our kids lives, but when I heard they were going to home school the grandkids I was beside myself with joy. I told my wife to tell my DIL who was on the phone that I was backing them 100%. Stop and think these kids will basically be tutored for their remainder of school. Who best to be your advocate than your mom and dad. They have committed to going on field trips to Washington or wherever to not just talk about but show these kids. My son is self employed and he said if it took 3 weeks to see what they were teaching then so be it. I think when they first discussed it with the kids ages 12 and 8 they were opposed, but after they see how  home schooled kids are ranked to enter college they changed their minds. I am proud that my son and DIL are going to take the time and effort to educate their kids.

I have long ago concluded the 2 party system just points the finger at the other party and they do pretty much the same sorry, greedy job if you can call it a job. I would much prefer no parties and if there were 20 men running for POTUS, let the man with the best ideas win. As for the the comments of Essone, my son and dil are going to start home schooling my 2 oldest grand children and teach them properly the things of history that needs to be learned and not forgotten. I don't know if any of you have seen Jesse Watters on Bill O'Reilly asking questions but it is ridiculous. He asked some college kids when did Columbus discover America and got answers like 1944. And we have to ask ourselves why we have stupid politicians, well we have stupid voters, or would that be ignorant voters?

Would it be just way too simple to spell it out??? I have had it with the friggin Icons too. In fact the icons in the cars and on pieces of electronics are absolutely a joke. It's not nice to play jokes on us old people.

Boy it seems easy for ya'll to derail a thread. Shows where your minds are huh??

On a similar note, about a year after my father passed away my mom was going thru his closet sorting clothes to give away and in a jacket pocket found 3-100 dollar bills. The neat thing it was within a day or so of her birthday. You know we should all tell someone where our hiding spots are so no "loot" is left unfound!
