If the feds say it is okay, the state of TN says it is okay.   We even have a TN Firearms freedom act which says that as long as you are making it and keeping it in TN the feds can butt out. Only problem, it is a law with no teeth at all so I wouldn't try to use it as cover for anything you would want to possess.

I know what you mean, it makes me nervous too. Then I feel the need to start checking myself for parasites like ticks, or politicians. :rofl:

I know how you feel, I often get that same reaction from folks I talk to. :lol:

I solve the serrated/smooth blade conundrum by carrying two blades. I have a habit of misplacing things so I carry inexpensive blades. One is a kershaw speed safe assisted open with the combo blade the other is a crkt dragon fixed blade smooth blade.

Someone will take her home at closing time and use her as a receptacle, which is what she wants deep down. How does she think our species has propagated throughout history? Every act of sex is rape simply because we enter them? No chick has ever enjoyed it? While it isn't in dispute that women don't normally have libidos as strong as men, they still do desire sex. Even lesbos cram dildos up each other, based on my research. It is biological. She's either mad that she wasn't born a man or she is mad that no one wants to penetrate her disgusting meat wallet.[/quote] Pretty sure I've conducted a fair amount of that same research. :cool:

No.

I finally found a candidate worthy of support in 2016.

Welcome from another Memphian.

Pretty much.

You can not like or disagree with the views all day long. This video isn't a whole lot about facts, it is about feelings and perceptions. If you want to make inroads with demographic, you have to address how they feel about you. The NRA understands this. Do you think the courting of folks like Colion Noir is an accident?

Oh, I guarantee it. I live here and there is always something funny going on. I think we get our public officials from the same criminal finishing schools as Chicago.

I've been there, my brother lived there for about a decade. The city has some great stuff to see, so do a lot of cesspools. I live in Memphis, so I know a thing or two about crappy cities. There isn't anything wrong with Chicago that a squadron of B2s loaded with napalm couldn't fix.

JayC, in principle I am in full agreement with you, but you are not grasping some of the finer details of the way this operation runs. The private management firm that leased that section of Beale does not receive any funds from the city. It manages and maintains that section of Beale and in return collects all the rents from the businesses there. This has been a subject of litigation over the last few years so that situation is fluid as the city maintains that it was due funds it did not receive. When I speak of public/private partnerships I refer mostly to state & federal grants for the restoration of historically significant property. Grants made to a private company.   One question, you mention "funds allocated for that 2 block section". Where are you getting the information that breaks down how the City of Memphis allocates road maintenance funds on a block by block basis? As I mentioned before, that section has had its original cobblestones restored and city crews DO NOT ever touch them. Every so often the management company has had to bring in a company to perform those repairs and it is a big enough expense and story that it usually makes the local news in some manner.   To reiterate, I agree with you that it is a bad idea to be able to carve out these types of exceptions. I just think you are truly failing to appreciate the uniqueness of the situation with regards to Beale Street. Is there anywhere else in the state where it is legal to serve booze openly on the street until 5am?  

When we had to put down the older of our pair of pugs, the younger never recovered. Where she had always been a goofy, happy pug before, after she was morose and lethargic and her health went downhill fast. Less than a year later we lost her too. Dogs do get sad, they do miss their partners and I believe they can die of a broken heart. I know ours did.

I have been looking for this kind of class for a while. I can tell you that there is a demand for it in the Memphis area.

[quote name="JayC" post="1090610" timestamp="1389058511"]Accept it still appears to be receiving state funds as a road. So technically is still a public road. [/quote] Beale Street is a lot bigger than the 2 city blocks that are restricted access at varying times. The MEPS station I inproccessed through was located on Beale St., about a mile away from the bars. Also, those two blocks do not have normal asphalt paving. They have had the original cobblestones restored and that is something that has been underwritten in the past by both public and private funds in partnership. IIRC, the general maintenance is handled by the PMC.

I resemble this remark.

Beale Street isn't really a public street. It is, and it isn't all at the same time. The section of the street considered as the "historic" section was leased to a private management firm back at the beginning of the 80's. Since that time it has been given special licenses to allow the serving and consumption of alcohol in the open and also longer serving hours than the rest of the state. That section of Beale is essentially an large open air bar.

If you can provide any information as to what parts of town she will be in, etc. I can give a better idea of prohibited areas to watch out for. Along with Beale, all city and county parks and every movie theater in the city is posted. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

The amount of money saved by Americans on food and other goods that can be directly attributed to Walmart dwarfs the amount of money provided to the poor in the form of both Welfare and the EIC. Here are a couple of articles that speak to that data. http://www.the-dissident.com/Walmart.shtml   http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/dialogues/features/2006/is_walmart_good_for_the_american_working_class/the_low_prices_are_good_news.html
