I agree with you 100% Mike. If this is the best the left has to run for the Oval Office I think Trump will remain in the Oval office in 20/20. In all honesty I look for Trump to be running against either Bernie or Biden but there could be a ringer in the group that could come out as front runner when the smoke clears..........JMHO

In all honesty Dave I have never heard of the SAF but I was getting a limited amount of emails about things the GOA is involved in which right now they have a case in the Supreme Court and they are proving they are for the 2nd Amendment and gun owners. They seem to be doing what the NRA did 20+ years ago that they are not doing now.

I got mail from them 4 times in a 2 week period and all they are wanting is money every time. Two of the requests for me to renew my membership which I did that last month but evidently they must have missed that part. I am a member or GOA also and they do have their act together and I will rmain with them. Not sure if I will renew with NRA next year.

Well I would go back with Comcast as I was a customer of theirs for 25+ years except where I am moving in about a month Comcast does not exist and has no intentions of coming there anytime in the next Century. Antenna or Satelite are the only options and antenna's are questionable. My daughter and son in law don't watch alot of TV and when they do it's a movie or DVD of some type or maybe local news off a little cheap antenna they have out side the house. My only hope is satelite or use High End Digital out side antenna until sometime next Spring when Google is suppose to be bringing Fiber Optics through there and it is suppose to be more affordable than all the other options. We will see on that part when it gets there.

I cut my cable 18 months ago cause they were charging me $67.00 and all at once my bill went to $128.00 without any warning at all. I callled them up and learned that they hd been keeping my account in a promotional program which is why the prices were 60 some odd dollars. They said all those programs ended and my bill went up to where it was suppose to be. I told them fine and to just cut my service imediately. That was in December 2017. I had a heart attack and was in the hospital and rehab through 1/2 of January 2018 and when I returned home I still had cable so I called the again and told them to turn it off. They didn't turn it off till mid April and next time I was going near their office I took them their boxes and controls. And about a month later I got this bill for some kind of rediculous number for service from January through April. I called them and told them that twice I had call and told them to turn it off nd twice they failed to do so until they realized I had quit paying the bill. I told them that I had no intentions of paying the bill for their stupidity and to have a nice day and hung up. Never got another bill from them. I went and bouht 2 antennas for my TVs and hooked up one on each and put the flat antenna in a window and put my TV on auto search and it picked up every channel the antennas could lock onto. I got 34 channels on 1 TV and 37 on the other one and I get a fairly good selection of good programing with Fox, CBS NBC, ION, which are the ones I watch the most so have not checked out the rest yet but probably will soon. Not to concerned cause gonna be moving in a month and already have an appointment with DISH to hook me up on Satelite a week after I move.

OK...who left their gun in the car in Millington?
bersaguy replied to monkeylizard's topic in General Chat
Sometimes you just can't fix stupid and leaving a gun in an unsecured vehicle in open sight is about as stupid as it gets. I have a policy of when I get in my vehicle my gun gets in and when I get out my gun gets out bar none. I have pretty much figured out where I can go and do or go and get everything in life I want to do without having to remove my gun concealed on my hip. In the event I was forced to go somewhere I had to leave my gun it would be locked in my glove box in a locked vehicle with the car alarm set. It is much better to take an extra 5 minutes securing your gun than to have an incident like the boy shooting his mother or someone else.........JMHO -
I totally agree with you on this. You can bet they will be working alot harder this time where it comes to the Electoral College is concerned. They learned a very important lesson in 2016 and I don't think they will make that mistake again. They will be much more focused on that this round. And yes, the Republicans need to go and vote this time even more that last time. I agree if the economy remains strong and our National Security is also strong that will definately be a plus for Trump. I am concerned now with him and China. That is affecting the economy of both countries and could very well upset the apple cart for the economy. We also have to see where Trump goes with N. Korea and Iran over the next month or so to. He is coming down really hard on both countries........JMHO

‘Heroic’ K-9 moves judges to tears on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’
bersaguy replied to volshayes's topic in General Chat
Thank you very much for the great story and video!!!!! -
I live in Gallatin just about 25 miles northeast of Nashville and when I moved here 20 years ago there were still a lot of big farms operating here. Now all those big farms are housing subdivisions, strip Malls and Apartment complexes and Nsshville has about reached here. I will be moving in mid June and going out about 50 miles farther out away from Gallatin. Going east to Gordonsville and moving into Father in Law house behind my daughter and son in laws house. He has about 5.5 acres and has a small range set up behind my future house so I can do more shooting. There is a great berm behind the house where he built the pistol range. He has been shooting quite a bit and no complaints at all from neighbors. I was dreading the move in the beginning but looking forward to it now. Ready to get out of this rat race that has developed since I moved here.

Trading maps for the GPS, it’s gonna bite us
bersaguy replied to Chucktshoes's topic in General Chat
One of my grandsons is a prime example of living a life depending on technology for about everything in his life. I don't think he could drive if it was not for his GPS unit mounted in his dashboard. Thing is he needs to learn that those things are not an exact science yet!! He was going to visit a friend that lived out in the country and he had the friends address programmed into his GPS. Well, it was kind of late that evening and a fog had moved in where he was going so he was driving more or less from GPS to stay on the road. As he began to approach the road his friend lived on the GPS said to turn left onto the small gravel road so he turned left and ddrove directly into a ditch. The road was another 15 feet farther up the road that he was supppose to turn on. He had to call for a tow to get him out of the ditch. that turned out to be an expensive learning experience about technology!! -
Students Walk out of Colorado School Shooting Vigil
bersaguy replied to Moped's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I agree with everything you have said here. So many laws tie the hands of the LEO's to really be able to do their jobs that they are actually limited to only a few options to help in many situations. I have never been an LEO but have friends that are and so many times they get frustrated by lack of laws that actually work in RO and OOP cases. They say in most cases the only option is to arrest the person that violated the orders issued by the courts. I think in many cases when that happens it just complicates the whole thing more and in many cases causes even worse situations down the road.........JMHO -
Students Walk out of Colorado School Shooting Vigil
bersaguy replied to Moped's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I have never had an issue with a Mental Health Professional myself but have a few friends that have and they all seem to have the same opinion of them and they are all negative. Many of them seldom return to them more than once because they said they might spend 15 minutes talking to them before the prescription pad comes out and they are ready to move on to the next patient. They said that being able to talk with friends that have been there about their issues helps more than any pills. I think those students showed a lot of what they felt last night and they got to express their feelings when they had an open mic discussion and some of the students made it clear that the issue was not about Guns but about them and what they are feeling right now. One of the people from one of the organizations that was represented took the mic and apologized and that the students were correct about their opinions. I totally agree with you about the issue of if you see something say something and get help for it and if the police are there they should make a decision to remove the problem while it is still in the beginning stages before it balloons into something much worse. Let the courts settle it. That is what they are for. You are correct about whether the problem will get fixed or not because way to many times the courts don't do the right thing and the next time the court sees the people it is for something a lot worse. That is one of the reasons I have never been in favor of Restraining Orders. In far to many cases they turn out bad for the one that filed it. If the problem is bad enough to need one of them it is beyond a piece of paper.............JMHO -

bersaguy replied to Moped's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I have the utmost respect for your reply but if the Vets would stand together as the students did and they talked to each other more and were able to vent their feelings and thoughts to fellow Vets I believe there would be less taking their own lives. Who do the vets have to turn to if not other vets. Counselors and Doctors and neither one of them have a real stake in what is going on in a vets head that other vets do have so vets talking to Vets is what is needed most and that is the types of programs the Government needs to build for the Vets. Not just shoving pills at them and having some person that has never been on the battle field sit them down and say I know how you feel when most of them can't or don't really know how they are feeling. The ones that need to be talking to the others are the ones that are also are picking themselves up and dusting themselves off ..........JMHO -

I'm proud of these kids that walked out of the Political forum that the politicians were putting on. The politicians and their groups and the Press never pass up an opportunity to use something like they to apply to their agenda and these kids didn't allow them their ability to do it. The News medias and politician groups don't give young people enough credit where credit is due. Kids are much more resilient than the New medias and groups line Brady Campaign give them credit for. Well the kids showed oth of them last night that they don't need either to heal their wounds, pick themselves up and continue to move forward. I don't think these kids need a bunch of counselors trying to get inside their heads either. If everyone will just allow them to be themselves and talk with each other they will get through this with each one helping each other. I'm quite sure they are going to heal much faster talking amongst themselves and being around their friends. I know I would much rather talk to a close friend I grew up with then some book worm counselor that does not even know their name.........JMHO -
I spent a little time about a week or so ago talking with a couple young people just fresh out of college and leaning a little left and we got on the subject of guns and I was kind of shocked at their replies to a few of my questions. They lean left in public when they are in a crowd of people but behind the scenes they are not anti-gun at all and they all own one or more and were raised up in a home where firearms were a part of their lives. So that now has me wondering just how many of these Socialist protesters are really ready to support what is on their posters when it's crunch time. Recently it has been said that even Nancy Pelosi is not really anti 2nd Amendment and yes she owns a gun or two. In talking with these young people they said it is only certain professors that talk politics in their classes but most of them stay focused on the course they are paid to teach. So now who do you believe is the question?

Steve Dickerson (R-Nashville) to Introduce Red Flag Bill
bersaguy replied to Garufa's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
yep, That appears to be the way they died. That had to be a very savage attack by a derranged person. It is a shame that the officer that shot him only hit him in the leg and not the head. They said the officer shot him after he produced a weapon. Must have been a knife since they said a sharp object possibly a knife was also used in the killings. He will probably be declared mentally disturbed and get locked in a mental ward some where. Until he is dead that means someday this guy could be back on the streets again.........JMHO -
Steve Dickerson (R-Nashville) to Introduce Red Flag Bill
bersaguy replied to Garufa's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I have seen several interviews with authorities and they ahve yet to announce the weapon he used to kill all the people. They did say that he pulled a couple weapons and that was when the Swat Officer shot him. That would lead me to believe he pulled guns but it could have been knives or an axe or any number of weapons. They did announce in the beginning when they were searching for him that he was armed and dangerous but they didn't say armed with what. I mean it does not take a lot of imagination to know it was a gun of a couple guns but they have not announced it last I heard.............. -

bersaguy replied to Garufa's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
If the DA would have done his job this person would not have been on the streets in the first place. He would have been in prison under a repeat offender sentencing. To allow a person like this back out of jail this many times is directly a problem for the DA. He should have been serving about 25+ years...........JMHO -

Did anyone else get and email from the NRA begging for money because the Governor of New York is threatening banks across the country to stop doing business with the NRA or they would feel the rath from his power to cause them major problems? If so how many people here believe Cuomo has that kind of power? That would make him more powerful than the President would it not??? Look forward to hearing opinions from members here!!!

As far as I'm concerned he is no better than any other drug dealer/pusher and should be treated as such with no special treatment. Criminal charges should be applied to him as well.
