While not as bad, my fire sometimes smokes up the surrounding yards but it does wonders on the mosquito population so they don't complain.

While I agree somewhat, I dont think you are entirely correct. For while it's illegal to commit crimes, done againt someone because of their race you may also be charged for violating their rights. Kill a black person, refuse to rent due to their race, keep someone from voting because of race (apparently only applies to whites) etc, etc.

That has always baffled me, they can't draw mohammed but they can all be named Mohammed. That character on South Park is drawn quite a few times, they even had draw Mohammed day in an episode, no?

    I heard a local news story last night which said he had trauma to the back of the head which closely resembled a bolt head inside the van. Could go either way as to whether a "rough ride" or intentional injury occurred inside the van.

Not sure of others intent but as for me, I have no issues with holding all our public servants accountable for their actions.  But with an injury toll of over 100 police officers across the country before any of the facts are known is just down right pathetic.  We the people have a right to protest, but not riot, loot and burn down the place while injuring those that want to maintain the peace.  Some of those A-Holes where even cutting the fire hoses, what kind of $hit was that?  And why is it that riots only occur when a black person is beaten or killed?  Why is it that other races maintain order and discipline when something like that happens to one of ours.  For full disclosure I am of Mexican decent, and I know that my brethren are treated much the same way across the country and more than a few have died in police custody but not once has there been a riot over it.  That is not to say that Hispanics never participate, heck many of them were in the pack during the LA riots but that was due to a black man.

Yea, pass.  At this point I would save money reapplying for it each time it expires.

Maybe under a new user name?

Yes, that is exactly how someone may try and do it.  But trying to do that while handcuffed can lead you to severely hurt yourself and possibly aggravate an already injured spine.  Like I said, we can come up with many scenarios pro and con but nobody can definitively say who caused the injury.  Did the police break protocol?  Certainly seems so but even so it does not rise to the level of all that chaos.  Now remember, I am speaking about the rioting, not the peaceful protests which does not include the hassling of the populace. 

I am not going to try to defend the police because not enough is known for me to make an educated decision on this issue.  But no matter how he died, these riots have little to do with it and more to do with getting away with stealing, burning and just being an A$$.  I don't know if the leaked story is true, or as with the "hands up" it was completely made up but all this should not be happening until a definitive report is given.  If the report exonerates the police or if they are found responsible and are not properly punished then there may a reason to protest, not riot, and possibly ask for an independent investigation to be conducted then.  As with the Brown incident, so much damage could of been avoided if they would just wait for all the facts to come out before going all ape poop on the community.

Well hopefully they make changes per unit instead of a blanket change for all TN.  Here we have an over abundance of deer which is probably why we have such a high doe limit but for the past few years it looks like we have not been harvesting enough.  Road killed deer have increased quite a bit out here and much of that has been due to new housing pushing deer out into other areas but it seems that there are a bunch more deer as well.  Maybe some of our Eastern TN hunters need to come down and take a few doe back with them.

Not hard to believe, lithium batteries have an odor a human can smell.  I have my 3v batteries in blister packs and when I open them I get a definite odor that come out of the pack.  With a bears sense of smell so acute its not a stretch to see how they can pick up a scent but why they would want to get to them is beyond me.  Maybe its because its a different smell, or maybe its a mineral they need...who knows.

I disagree, that is how many of them talk amongst each other. And coming from within may get some to get the message instead of just going on the defensive. I have learned that within any group, there are many who are fed up with the vocal minority making the entire group look bad. It's up to those within to bring about a change to their respective group, any outsiders will only bring agitation to the situation.

Yea, I have them both on all my ARs too. All the slicks I seen where more expensive than the standard version so I didn't go for them. Same goes for the other mods I have seen, such as the one that does away with the charging handle, some of which I like but not enough to pay the premium price.

Not sure about the M&P sport but others I have seen can't even take a forward assist or cover since they are not designed to have one installed. These parts have little to no use in a non military role and even then I have never used the forward assist in combat and the dust cover never kept the sand out.

I am in Unit L and though I think the limit is fine here I would not have a problem if they went lower as I like my small does. This year most bucks on my cams showed up at night, they were good looking bucks and I would of dropped one given the chance but don't regret not seeing them in my scope.

I was figuring he linked to it on his site.

Nope, you are on the money.  As long as you are fully aware of what you are getting and it meets your needs then you should be just fine with it.  As I have stated before, I am not a brand whore, I have a some cheaper ARs, an M&P, a PSA, a DPMS and home build with multiple brand parts as well as a Spikes and they all perform just fine.  I prefer the faster twist barrels due to wanting to use a heavier boolit, but 1:9 is not overly slow if you stay with jacketed bullets or lighter cast boolits.

I have a standard M&P 15 and there is nothing wrong with it.  At the time I got it, at the height of the AR rush, it was hands down the cheapest AR you could get and it was over $800.  Now you can get the same for less but I have learned that the new sport model has had some changes which may or not  change your mind:     [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnjz1XIqFcw[/media]

I do the opposite, I figure my OAL first then charge due to the fact that OAL may change your pressure.  Though I have seldom gone at or past max charges listed for most loads, there are some powders that are quick to go from just under to past max when you change OAL just a bit; but those have been with other than .308s so you may be ok either way with that caliber. 

When I was stationed in Savannah GA, we would see them dead on the road and each year they would be further and further north.  Recently, like within the last two years, I have started to see them here in Montgomery County, TN.  Haven't run into a live one yet but have seen a few on the road out on Hwy 149 going to the steam plant.  With as many as I see run over, there has to be a decent population of them in the woods.

Welcome back to the neighborhood, and welcome to the site.

That's one nice looking bird, it trained in falconry?

Just get an Eagle to do it for you, a Desert one.  Ok, Ok, I guess a Crossman or Daisy will have to do.

This pic got me to thinking; Due to the yellow markers (indicating bullet holes??) on the back end I figured this was the "victims" car, but there isn't much if any damage so how hard was he rear ended? If this was the shooters car; then the markers indicate getting shot from behind so the "victim" may of shot at his "attacker" as he was speeding away.

I wish they would pass a law that if a law gets passed which contradicts another law, the older law is nullified. It may cut down on all these confusing laws.
