The Scripture I posted was never meant to insult those that cannot work.....it is meant to slap those that will not work. I grew up in a military family where everyone pulled their own weight and slacking off was not allowed. Illness and injury are not slacking off....laziness and sloth are....as they are acts of will.

  The government is acting like they own us, like they are the Parent, nanny state and all. It is not looked upon with favor to be INDEPENDENT of FedGov. I am reminded of the line in V for Vendetta...."We need to remind them why THEY need US!"........My rights come from God. My family is my responsibility. The government is the servant not me or mine. We need to remind them of that.

All I have to say is.....2 Thessalonians 3:10....wish we would adopt that.

Very sorry for your loss......

Hey Spots, when you get a handle on a style and you start hammerin out tunes....will they have an edge on 'em?  :rofl:  :rofl:  The style I used to play was called "claw hammer" but time, age and accidents took pickin out of my hands. When you find your style... guard your hands and fingers!  Good pickin to ya... :usa:

If only.........

I bought the Henry blued .22 for my wife....she loves it...very smooth, light, reliable (when you can find ammo) and affordable. She wanted the Golden Boy until she saw the price and I see no difference except for the cosmetics.....can't go wrong with a Henry no matter what model you choose.....jmho.. :2cents:

Aw gee....I thought this was going to orange juice and some vodka......

  Since none of the Democrats like guns, maybe it won't be so hard..... :usa:   :woohoo:  :rofl:

Cobb County is in the cesspool of Atlanta........no real suprise to me...Jawja has been gettin less n less Southron all the time.....

Ninjas don't exist....Chuck Norris killed them all..... :rofl:

  Ah yes...the Brasstards...aptly named

Brass is a precious metal....just like lead and copper.....store what you can, shoot what you need, sell what you must..... :usa:

TDR..... :up:  

RIP Mr Clancy......

The Col. was given plenty of recognition ....by his soldiers and buddies.....it is the Army way of life. He did his job, an excellent job, and was awarded time and again from those that "get it". My Dad is the same way.....

Damn fine soldier he.......

Oh man....watching that was.......... a real blast!!!!   :rock:  :usa:

As far as the chambering goes...it is better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. I had a Remmy 1100 years ago and really did not like being restricted to 2 3/4 inch shells. My Winnie 1300 takes up to 3 inch shells and it is nice to switch from 2 3/4" for skeet and small game to 3" for ducks and geese. JMHO......

lots of fog  ut no frost just yet.....cool, chilly morning...... :up:

Interesting how the BBC reported the information/allegation first......

There are many facets to this discussion and to the broader subject of topics that we, as adults, feel passionate about. I look at the "LE threads" with a critical eye for whatever details are known and are proven true. When the Boston bombing happened, I was appaled at the military approach/vehicles/tactics involved because it reminded me of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Both happened outside TN but affect us here, should we not discuss those events? Of course we should. Do we call for the participating LE agency members heads on pikes? Of course not. I do not paint LE with any broad brush, as that treatment was metted out to my beloved Army during/after Vietnam, but the abuses of the "few" are becoming more and more commonplace across the country. We live in a well connected, communication society. Perceived slights/abuse/brutality are in the " instant upload to social media" arena. I believe it would be a dis-service to squelch or appear to censor discussion of events from outside the state borders. We are adults and gentlemen. The trolls and trouble makers should not be given a platform to stir the sh*t pot or, by their existence, prevent us from genuine discourse.  It has been stated in previous posts that we police ourselves. I ask the Moderators to continue to moderate yet allow honest discussion. Gentlemen, I thank you for your efforts on this board. I quite enjoy reading, disagreeing and sharing with those of like mind and spirit and I hope that it continues unabated.

The best way to defeat this new technology .......don't use it. The surveillance is voluntary (at this point) and the catch/hook is the golly-gee-wizz-bang of the device. The new cars are computer hackable (I have an older vehicle) the new mega size TVs have video cameras installed (mine is 8 years old,works fine) and the phones are being monitored by .gov (known that for years, still have my flip phone)......I refuse to participate in the voluntary gathering/mining of what my life choices are.....that's also why I have curtains on my windows.
