Different Perspective on the players of the End Times.
JG55 replied to JG55's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Considering some of the questions that are asked, i thought it was very interesting to see the biblical prophecy from a different perspective. I don't remember ever considering the ruler of Turkey as bring the Ant-Christ or that The Anti-Christ would not rule the world only a portion of it. Or consider the economic devastation if the Arabia oil fields were nuked ? perhaps some one with a middle easterner background can better see the prophecies. -
If you haven't seen this video, it pretty much nails it from a conservative POV plus it's good for a laugh !!! :rofl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LO2eh6f5Go0&feature=youtu.be

Did you see or catch this ? In the beginning of the movie when Bond is Chasing the BG, Bond gets hit in the right upper chest area, there is blood on his coat and shirt on the right side front and on the right side back of his jacket. In Fact it looks like a bullet hole blood stain on the back right side of the jacket. Later when Bond is back at the MI6 Headquarters he cuts out a piece of shrapnel from the left side of his upper chess instead of his right side. Seems there is a connectivity issue there. Wouldn't of thought the editors would miss this !

I agree Casino Royale was Craig's Best. Skyfall was good and action packed but it didn't have the concentration on Bond like Casino Royale.

Thanks for all the helpful advice and comments about Sig's. My Sig P220 Scorpion Elite arrived today. First impressions are that it is a beautiful gun if a gun can be that. I loved the lines and the look of the Scorpion Elite it exudes awesomeness. :up: The feel and weight feels like quality and it fits my hand nicely. I like the g10 grips. I have ammo being delivered today and I can't wait to get to the range. Will need Holster recommendations.

There are so many ways that this issue could be compared to present day issues;) Really is a small microcosm of today's political issues.

http://ace.mu.nu/archives/336869.php January 24, 2013 We Must Do Something About The Media It's important. I already mentioned the media's Hillary Tributes, but there's even more of it. And I've mentioned this before, but I'm truly alarmed about it: What we are witnessing is the full and seamless fusion of media power with government power. The media used to hide it a bit, in their actions; they would temper their scorn of conservatism, throw them a bone now and again just to prove they were capable of such a thing. No longer. The media no longer hides it in their actions. They are fully fused with the Obama Administration and DNC. The only way in which they do hide it is by simply lying when confronted about it: They'll issue a snide denial, then go about doing precisely what it is they were accused of doing. This is dangerous and unhealthy. I keep banging this drum but honestly, some patriotic billionaires do have to band together to purchase or build a media outlet. The outlet would be founded upon a simple premise: that it is dangerous and ultimately fatal for democracy for media power to fuse with government power, that the adversarial press is vital. Fox alone isn't enough. For one thing, any venture needs competition; Fox doesn't really have competition, not for the audience it's targeting. For another thing, frankly, look: Fox is often pitched too low to do any good with any but the already-alarmed. (Which I consider to be possibly a function of a lack of competition.) The media considers its adversarial function to consist of serving as adversaries to critics of Obama and the Democrats; thus Terry Moran shaming himself by rushing out to ask what right a Senator has to question the Secretary of State on matters of foreign policy. They do not consider themselves required to exert any adversarial pressure on governmental power itself (at least not so long as it is held by socialist Democrats; why sure, they'll rough up John Boehner!). This is dark, and dangerous, and will lead to horrors. It always has lead to horrors before. I wrote sarcastically on Twitter about this. I'm putting that below, just to have it in one place. .@terrymoran, wouldn't you agree that it's a wonderful thing that media power has fused seamlessly with government power? This is precisely what an advanced liberal society is supposed to look like, right? Criticism of political leaders is quasi-criminal? It's a sign of a perfectly healthy democracy that the "Watchdog Media" fuses completely with the government power. Nothing bad could possibly flow from this, a "Watchdog Media" fused in every way with the government power. If you look at history, you'll find that most of the free, liberal periods occurred during a fusion of media power with state power. If history shows us anything, it's that government functions best when it is vigorously defended and covered-up for by a compliant media. There is absolutely no reason at all for the media to re-evaluate its short-term politicizing for government power and consider consequences. Let's face it, the Adversarial Press is an anachronism. Modern times demand a press working hand-in-glove with the government. As New York Times pundit Thomas Friedman so astutely observes, we can learn a lot from the Chinese government & their media. A government that wishes Results and Transformations cannot deal with the niggling of press critics, or political opponents for that matter. Certainly the media (and every other powerful corporation) should do everything within its power to stamp out the subversions of disunity. Efficiency requires that all citizens, and of course all media outlets, vigorously support the five-year plans announced by the government. If the American Experiment means anything, it's that we must all be united in the exact same system of beliefs and political desires. ... Just to add to this: What we call "liberal" politics in this country has always been a mix of actual liberalism (one strain of it, at least) and outright leftism. (This W.R. Meade piece notes that liberalism began absorbing parts of socialism/communism/leftism in order to compete with those groups, when they threatened liberalism politically from the left.) Liberalism is highly concerned with process. Both the liberal version of classic liberalism and the conservative version of classic liberalism consider process (fairness, equal access, and other such concerns) to be almost as vital as outcomes. Actually, in reality, process is more important than outcomes, as far as the long-term health of a democracy, and all politically-minded people tend to put outcomes over process; we all do it, we all lapse. But generally we keep process firmly in mind, even if we don't quite give it the priority it deserves. But leftism is a different beast. Leftism considers concerns of process to be a weakness, and indulgence for sissies and the faint-hearts; the only thing that matters -- the only thing that should be a concern for the properly-masculine, properly-indoctrinated New Man of the Left is outcomes. Any tactic, fair or foul, is permissible in the quest for the Leftist State. Now, until recently, liberalism had at least tried to give some lip service, and perhaps some actual consideration, to the faggy notions of process, fairness, access, and such. But no longer. The press is actually not more nakedly liberal now; in fact, it's never been more illiberal, at least not since some press organizations romanticized fascism, Naziism, and socialist dictatorship in the tumultuous years of the thirties. What it is is more unabashedly leftist. It no longer has any fears of qualms about government power (power, I mean, held by the Right Hands); it cheers it on, it coddles it, it encourages it, it nurtures it. Consider: The government locked up a filmmaker because the filmmaker expressed his free speech rights in a way the president found politically problematic. Not only has the press shown no fears about this, they've actively campaigned for the man's jailing. That's frightening. Even if you come down on the side that the guy did what he's accused of and all that... to have absolutely notrepidations about the government jailing people primarily for their Speech Crimes? That's something. That's something. I don't think I'm being alarmist. At every point in history when media power has fused with government power -- whether involuntarily or, for one of the first times in history, now voluntarily -- it has resulted in disaster and misery. It has so resulted every time before. I don't see why now would be different. And I don't consider our new Media Masters "better" or "smarter" than the old ones -- indeed, these seem like the most incompetent, most callow, and most ethically challenged crop in history. Among Many Good Comments... is this one, from rrpjr. You're not being alarmist. It's the single most threatening development in my lifetime. It's hard to believe it has actually happened -- how did the graduates of the finest liberal schools in the world come to a shared conviction in the importance of their own professional corruption, to subvert the essential ethic of journalism and the First Amendment? Amazing, really -- every cautionary tale of the 20th century is at our disposal, right there to see both in reality and in our literature -- and all are ignored or sneered at in the name of ideology and power. What profound ignorance and arrogance. The true source of Obama's power is completely overlooked (or willfully ignored) by the GOP, perhaps because it is too terrifying to contemplate, too awesome to engage: that he has completely removed an investigative and anti-authoritarian media (in Mencken's famous adage, one committed in part "to afflicting the comfortable") from the political dynamic. Obama operates with the most massive propaganda arm ever been seen in modern history. He is essentially invulnerable. At no point did Romney/Ryan come close to addressing this sick truth so dangerous to our society and freedoms. Nor do any other Republicans. Breitbart alone found expression for his moral outrage and developed a plan of counter-attack. Since he died, however, the game has gone back to carping and chronicling "media bias." We need a battle plan.

Part of the reason I have asked about these 2 is that I was at a LGS who had both in stock. I put the P226 in my hand and it felt like a glove. A very good fit. Honestly surprised me! I have a CZ 75 which has always felt right in my hand as say compared to a Glock. or M&P. The cz 75 is better and more accurate than me and makes me a better shooter which in turn made wonder if I had been missing something with the sigs. Both cz and sig felt natural in my hand. I liked that. As we all know sometimes we buy something and than for whatever reason we decide not for me. Don't want to do that with a $1000 gun . . I commented to the store clerk how good the sig felt in my hand. He replied that it was the Beavertail and g10 grips. I think that was right as the sig without the beavertail did not have the same feel. Dous the beavertail make that much of a difference? Never thought about it before. Thanks a lot I believe you guys are going to cost me alot of money :rofl: I am really lusting after the scorpion versions with the cerokote finish :rock: Any opinions on durability of cerakote ?

So are the new ones made in NH good quality as compared to the ones made in Germany. Would I even know the difference ? Could you explain the extra lube required for them?
