There is an old joke about this. What's the difference between a gay man and a straight man? About a six pack.

Why?

Party Monster is such a great movie.

Yeah, I imagine he already takes enough shots to the ass as it is. :dirty:

Well, I guess we know why Glock isn't a sponsor...

Every time we turn around it seems to rise up for another round of flogging. I am really starting to think this place needs a "Pink Pistols" social group. :lol:

The dude's name should tell you what you need to know. Cabeza means "head" in Spanish. And of course we all know what the shortened nickname for Richard is, right? Put them together and what do ya get!

http://www.sacbee.com/2013/12/09/5986084/federal-judge-says-california.html ROSEVILLE, Calif., Dec. 9, 2013 -- /PRNewswire/ -- In a rejection of California Attorney General Kamala Harris' stance on the rights of law-abiding gun owners, Senior Federal District Court Judge Anthony W. Ishii denied Harris' motion for summary judgement today in a federal civil rights lawsuit filed by The Calguns Foundation, indicating that California's 10-day "waiting period"gun laws are likely unconstitutional. "The fact that a federal judge saw these laws for what they are -- baseless restraints on the exercise of a fundamental civil right -- is monumental," explained Gene Hoffman, Chairman of The Calguns Foundation. "California's waiting period laws for those who own guns is not Constitutional and this order really underlines the point." In his order, Judge Ishii said that Harris has "not presented sufficient evidence to show that the [10-day waiting period laws] passes either intermediate or strict scrutiny." About the laws being challenged in the case, named plaintiff Jeff Silvester of Hanford, California, said, "I have a license to carry a loaded firearm across the State. It is ridiculous that I have to wait another 10 days to pick up a new firearm when I'm standing there in the gun store lawfully carrying one the whole time." "This is certainly an exciting development in Second Amendment case law," noted Brandon Combs, an individual plaintiff in the case and the Executive Director of The Calguns Foundation. "If our Constitution means what it says, then California's gun waiting period laws have to be overturned and law-abiding people must be allowed to exercise their rights without irrational infringements." Regardless of the final decision at the district court, the case is virtually certain to end up at the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and possibly even the Unite States Supreme Court. "Cases like this one will define the limits of government regulations on firearms and Second Amendment rights," said Combs. "We look forward to making sure laws like California's waiting period are properly scrutinized by the courts." Judge Ishii was appointed to the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of California by President Bill Clinton in 1997.

Further down the slippery slope...really not surprised

[quote name="tnguy" post="1079071" timestamp="1387058735"]Much as I am no fan of welfare cheats, or, indeed, welfare in general, I doubt that women in polygamous relationships claiming as single mothers is much an issue worth paying attention to.[/quote] I brought that particular type of welfare scam not as a reason to support legalizing polygamy, but more as a "hey, bonus!" if it was granted official recognition. I don't like government involvement in marriage because when you grant it legitimacy to regulate things in your favor, you are obligated to recognize that same legitimacy when it changes the rules and turns the tables against you.

[quote name="RobertNashville" post="1079015" timestamp="1387050313"]I'd rather just see us eliminate (or a wholesale restructuring of) welfare but at least this could be an improvement.[/quote] Could we have both? An elimination of the welfare state [i]and[/i] an elimination of government mucking about in folks' relationships. -

The type and makeup of romantic relationships of [i]consenting adults[/i] is of no business of the government. Another positive aspect of legal recognition of plural marriage is that it would allow elimination of a type of cheating of the welfare system popular among polygamous communities. Where the non legal spouses receive foodstamps as single mothers. -
[quote name="NRA" post="1078962" timestamp="1387045838"]I agree with you but it is so small it does not even get in my way. I do not even know it is there. (the safety that is)[/quote] Oh I know. I have handled and shot them before. My thinking is that if I don't intend on using it, I don't want it there on the off chance it is accidentally engaged. I view it as a possible failure point, even if unlikely. If I practiced & trained to use the safety that be a different matter but since I don't, I don't want it to possibly trip me up when I don't have an extra second or two to figure out that my gun won't fire because an item I don't use got switched to the on position.
-
I'm thinking real hard about a shield, it is definitely on the want list. As far as the manual safety, I'm just gonna yank it out altogether as I view it as an extraneous item and an extra point of possible failure. My carry guns don't have manual safeties.

Ok , Heres the challenge, lets see some answers

Clarksville appears to be a fair amount cheaper than Memphis. That being said, prices have definitely gone down.

[quote name="RobertNashville" post="1078357" timestamp="1386953361"]Do they even have those here in TN??? ;)[/quote] I don't know, but I think there is a website called backpage where you can find that sort of thing as well as anything else other folks have for sale broken down by city. A lot like Craigslist, but they kept their red light section. Or so I am told...

[quote name="LINKS2K" post="1078326" timestamp="1386950618"]My point is that most TGO members don't live in Memphis, but probably have several more weapons than any Memphian here for sport and security that they really don't need since they safely reside outside of Memphis. Obviously, things aren't so rosey in the rest of the state either. I never notice Memphians doing much bitching about the crime because it seems that most are smart enough to know that there will be higher concentrations of crime in urban areas. It comes with the territory. Also, it appears that most Memphis members have enough sense not to patronize whores, buy drugs and steal from people, so we hear about crime the same way that you do from news organiztions that love to keep you paralyzed and bunkered down in your home afraid to turn the channel and miss the next threat.[/quote] As a PSA: If you are gonna patronize whores, leave the street walkers alone. The outcall escort services are worth the extra $$. Not that I'd know or anything.

[quote name="LINKS2K" post="1078341" timestamp="1386951519"]1. I'm going to remember this thread the next time that one of Obamas juveniles does something stupid to see if we can get the same level of compassion for the young person. After all, we wouldn't want to destroy the life of a minor would we? 2. I recently had a lady get pissed at me because I told her that the little sh*t who killed that contractor in Memphis needed a life sentence or the death penalty for his crime. He killed a kids father on the kids birthday. He should fry! 3. I always attempt to place myself on both sides of the story. If this drunken asshole were my son, sure I would want to protect him. On the other hand, if this jack wad had killed one of my loved ones I would want the bast@rd to fry several times over. He committed a major crime and destroyed many lives in the process.[/quote] I'll show the same level of compassion. ;)
