I understand... " People are still people and opportunists are still opportunists "... Everybody learns at their own pace. I kinda fall off the " cynical wagon " from time ta time and get ta thinkin we are a " community "... I always seen ta get this one wrong... We are a microcasm of our greater society... ...This little soliquey aint aimed at you, Brother... Its just a sad musing and a proof of what we are... SIGH... sad leroy, the melancoly curmudgeon...

I think FUJI has point here. I think there is goin ta be a showdown between the various states and the feds RE: " Federal Regulations "... It will be tumultous, but i think ya will see " individual regulation nullification. I think overarching " Federalism " is dead. Welcome to a " Brave New World " where the states run things n the feds continue to steal... Do y'all remember when the " Great Snozz Haslam " spoke in the Obama days about gun regulation..? He said : " We will review this proposed regulation against the Tennessee State Constitution "... Imagine that kind of talk from an " Ultimate Political Insider "... Here's hopin.., libertarian leroy...

Possible New Federal Tax Proposal For Gunowners.
leroy replied to pop pop's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I agree as to the intent. The intent is clear. Im guessin that this stuff cant get thru a closely divided house n senate... Remember, there are " lefties " out there buyin guns, and for real good reason. That bein said, i absolutely believe these sons n daughters of perdition need a close watchin... Watchin leroy... -

Remember this: " There has never been a work of art, a literary piece, or a theatrical production that does not project a point of view. " Quit wasting your time trying to " discover " one. Simply recognize that it is there n go on reading to glean any facts (..if there are any. ). Lookin for an " unbiased report " is like lookin for " Rainbow Stew " and Unicorns; there ain't any... Especially now. This has been a TGO ( and realist ) public service announcement. Civic Minded leroy... The news site I watch. http://badblue.bitnamiapp.com/trendr8.htm

Thanks Bill... Canya easily pick up the dot on the Holosun..? That's the only reason i hesitated a bit. Old bespeckled eyes... The truth is, i like the sight idea far better than the laser idea. Thanks again... leroy

Smedley Butler... Old Corps Marine... Winner of 2 Brevet Medals and 1 Congressional Medal of Honor... By the way, the Brevet Medal was the officers version of the Medal of Honor in the old days... Served in the Boxer Rebellion with Dan Daily and Herbert Hoover. Fought in the " Bananna Wars " n WW1. Advanced to the rank of Marine Corps General, and retired as the result of a spat with then President Hoover... Became a great advocate of isolationism and a proponent of using a plebicite (... Look it up...) to determine when to go to war, and he toured the countryside after his retirement speaking about his beliefs. He was the first " truther " as regards to who really runs the gubt of the USA... He was slandered as a socialist n a pacificast. Nothing is farther from the truth. Read his book: " War is a Racket ", and ya will see why the political class and the captains of unbridled capitalism hated him... His biographical sketch is fantastic. Close second... Alvin Cullum York... WW1 hero n great Tennessean... Admirin leroy the militant isolationist...

Brothers n Sisters... Picked up a Ruger Charger the other day. Thinkin about a laser... Which ones doya like... leroy...

Powerful stuff Brother..!!! HEHEHE... leroy...,

For what it's worth, i would'nt recommend the 38 spl +p self defense ammo for hunting. Im thinkin the hollow points are constructed too light and might mushroom too quick for a decent kill. That bein said, i use an old 38-44 handload with a 173 grain SWC that chronographs an honest 1200 fps out of my 3 3/4 inch ruger sheriff usin 2400. That will kill em clean. leroy

Amen... As an old professor (...and genuine genius...) taught me 40 or so years ago:..." To every problem, there is a solution: Simple, neat, and wrong "... This one has to go away for " The Happiness of All Humanity"... Watchin leroy, the hillside skeptic...

A genuine " Blast from the Past "..! Aint seen one of these in forever... Im glad ya rescued this guy... On a related note; i seem ta remember that Colt tried a slightly warmed over copy of these pistolas, but they couldn't do anything with the popularity of the Detonics and finally quit tryin.

Anyone want to donate $35 to have me ban a whiner permanently?
leroy replied to TGO David's topic in General Chat
Since we have moved from frivolity and enjoyment of a good laugh, to the more practical and serious side of things; ill opine about " Censorship " and " Correction "... I get the idea that we are in David's House. Some of us even pay a fee to be here. This aint " Stormfront " nor whatever the most hateful lefty forum is... it's " Tennessee Gun Owners "... A lovely place of conversation for most folk of good will who like, collect, n shoot firearms...; and there are certain proprieties we observe here for both David and us " children " here on the forum; as well as a need for the projection of certain optics for those on the outside lookin in. The most lovely place i can think of is a home. A home has responsible " parents ". Parents correct the rowdy n adjust the attitudes of the disruptive from time to time. That is simply the nature of the family thing. Havin said that; I think from time to time, that we are a bit too " squeeky clean ", but that's just me. But, on balance, as the great " Pappy Menolaius O'Daniel quipped: " Its a well run machine "... Thanks to " all y'all " who run it from a former malefactor and rabid libertarian. That is all... misdemeanerin leroy...
