Crazytown isn't a good place to take up residence either. Our government has enough overt ways that they're trying to eff us. I don't need to go looking into the shadows if I want to be concerned that they're up to no good.

That's Plan B.

Two questions... 1. Anyone know if it's posted? 2. Anyone know if they allow cameras?

Meh. Anyone who has even a rudimentary understanding of radio knows that the conspiracies ascribed to this are complete bunk.

FOXNews.com - 911 Tape Released in Mexican Pirate Attack on U.S. Couple This stuff is getting old. Their government is almost as corrupt as our own [see what I just did there?] so I don't put much faith in the idea that the US will ever cough up the balls to actually do anything about it.

True enough. The threat of unemployment has thus far kept me from being very creative. I just use my aircard and my personal laptop during lunch, that way I'm on my time using my resources. They can't exactly police that unless they want me to start going completely off-campus for lunch, which would put them in a hurt since we're short-staffed as is.

I've got it loaded on both my iPhone 4 and my Droid X. It's my go-to for checking in on TGO when I'm stuck behind our corporate firewall at work.

We (at my job) block most proxies as well.

Websense is configurable, therefore the organizations using it can choose to block weapons related sites or not. I work for a company that has, in its complete lack of common sense, blocked firearms related sites (even sporting arms, hunting related, etc.) yet allows unfettered access to sites that discuss and advocate illegal drug use, neo-nazism, Black Panthers and other hate groups, as well as the purchase and sale of sex toys. As I am one of two people tasked with, among other things, managing our Websense installation and as I do possess common sense, I inquired as to why the company is blocking places like Cabelas, Bass Pro, Remington, Winchester, etc. given that we are here in the south and people do hunt for sport and sustenance. The answer? "Guns are bad, m'kay?" So suffice it to say that it's not Websense that is evil... it's just the morons that decide which policies to apply to Websense are evil. Oh, wait... there's a parallel with firearms hiding in that statement.

Nicely done, folks.

Smart bombs. I got an awesome taste of this weather when I was out in San Francisco the first week of September. It was just like this out there and I loved it. Brisk mornings, mellow during the day and brisk nights. They say it's like that almost all year 'round because of how the ocean and the bay play off of each other. I could totally live with that sort of weather if it wasn't for the fact that California has been ruined by the nutjob politicos.

Agreed. I guess what bothers me about this type of journalism is that it just gives ammo to the other side and allows them to refute conservative values the same way they do when attacking those rabid, extremist tea partiers [--their generalizations, not mine]. If we as conservatives / libertarians / constitutionalists would just keep an even keel and not resort to painting our opponents with such broad brushes, but rather exercise the scalpel of fact, we might stand a better chance of both being heard by and believed by the middle-of-the-road agnostics. Oh well. I digress.

Agreed. I haven't been hunting for the past few years for lack of property to do it on... but man this weather and that picture really make the blood get to flowing.

I'm not saying you didn't get the alert, but I do question the software indicating it came from here. I signed up for a year's worth of monitoring from a company that scours TGO daily and will alert me instantly if they discover any malware or links to malware. I don't want to have happen again what happened last week.

Absolutely my favorite time of year! Cool mornings, warm days and cool nights. I love this weather. Just makes you want to go camping.

I have a fundamental problem with these journalists who insist on assigning these evils to Obama for the sake of sensationalism. Sure, he's the sitting POTUS, but this law would give that power to the Presidency... not to Obama specifically. If this had passed three years ago the article would have read: At any rate... yes it's a crap law. Yes it scares me. Yes it would be bad if this happens. The people to be pissed at, however, are Senators Lieberman and Rockefeller. Not Obama. I don't really think he had anything to do with this one, but I could be wrong.

Nah we don't have tags enabled here. I tried it once a while back and people were putting stupid stuff in them, which made it completely pointless. I'm looking at some other forum software right now that has a LOT of promise. It's being eritten by two of the lead developers from the glory days of vBulletin who jumped ship after InternetBrands bout and ruined them. Its entirely possible that I could swap us to new software in 2011.

Sorry... no deleting going on here. Just stop visiting.

Way to miss my point entirely.

Here's my history with AT&T... I had them back in Kentucky with then were Bellsouth Mobility and then Cingular bought them. They were CDMA back then, but Cingular slowly started rolling out GSM service and when it was time for me to upgrade my phone I picked up a GSM Nokia phone and tried that for a while. I hated it. Absolutely f-ing hated it. I could tell you where the dead spots were in my YARD, and service between home and work? Forget making a call without dropping it at least three or four times. I finally ended up breaking my contract and dared them to try and collect on me, as I'd love to have met them in court over it. They never asked for, or got, a dime. Fast forward to 2010. The iPhone 4 just came out and the folks at my company's home office in St Louis just loooooooove them some iPhones. So we get three and start trying them out. Utterly useless when you're on call because you can't assign a custom notification tone to email, let alone filter email and only alert on certain ones. The Blackberry has done this for years. Are Apple employees never on call?!? And then the dropped calls started. Of course we have a MicroCell at our office, which is a huge crock of **** anyway -- if the service was that good, why do we need a repeater -- so as long as we were within range of it, no problems. But to and from work? After hours? On the road? Bwahahah... yeah, right. Not much has changed since Cingular was the name on the marquee. My iPhone couldn't keep a call up with Viagra. It's laughable how bad AT&T's network is. They'd surely be out of business by now if it wasn't for the exclusive contract they have with Apple at the moment. As soon as Verizon gets the iPhone (2011 they say), AT&T will crash and burn. I had the original Motorola Droid last year, and liked it OK... but the Droid X is just phenomenal. I'm totally digging it.

I'd say it is a fairly effective conspiracy considering that you've got people telling everyone else to stay away from XYZ forum. See post #1. Could it be that this is an organized attack on gun-related sites that are all running older versions of Open-X ad software? Why, sure. Does that mean we should start turning against each other inside the community? Absolutely not.

Just got mine today. Couldn't stand the AT&T service on my work iphone any longer. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk

I took out the safety valves a long time ago.

That's a philosophical question. The answer is yes, no... do you want to? The bottom line is that when they initially started reporting it, we were not compromised but one of our advertisers was. As the week wore on, we ended up in the same boat. So were they right? Sort of. For someone with no tech savvy, trusting it is erring on the side of safety. For someone with more experience than that, no.
