A friend of mine posted an article on the Book of Face earlier today regarding the massive negative impact a shutdown would have on the D.C. local economy. This was my response. It pretty much encompasses my feelings regarding the effects of the shutdown across the wider economy as well. "I have a hard time finding any sympathy for the participants in a local economy dependent on legalized plunder. This is especially true when the danger faced is the temporary ceasing of activities by the entity engaged in larceny on their behalf."

So, would it be in bad form to leave information on ways to disable/immobilize MRAPs in this thread? ;)

The Marine who was killed in a SWAT raid on his home. Piña County and other culpable parties just settled a wrongful death lawsuit with his widow for $3.4 million. This op-ed lays out some good points without declaring Guerena a saint. http://azstarnet.com/news/local/column/steller-let-s-learn-something-from-guerena-killing/article_d2079a62-f68c-5bdc-8b84-6e6eb60d7e87.html The wiki if a refresher is needed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jose_Guerena_shooting

Effing brilliant.

Because as long as somebody, somewhere took a vote on it, it is perfectly kosher, right?

No. AR-10 lowers are a different size.

These are questions that I think you're going to require the advice of somebody that's actually got a JD, not those of us on this board with an ID (Internet Doctorate.).

Two choices, ignorance or stupidity on the part of the ffl/employee. The instructions on the 4473 are pretty clear if the person filling out the ffl's portion actually reads them. I have worked in a gun shop, have completed plenty of 4473s and they are a pretty simple and straightforward form to fill out. If I seem a little harsh in my response, it is just that folks screwing up forms like that annoys the crap out of me. It isn't a difficult form to fill out, but if done wrong there is the possibility (no matter how small) of legal repercussions for either the ffl's or the customer and that is simply unacceptable.

A stripped lower is listed as a receiver, it is neither a rifle nor a pistol. Build it how you want.

Does West Virginia count?

All movie theaters in Memphis are posted. Every single stinking one of them.

Would somebody hang the quisling bastard already?

Thurmond's filibuster was in 1957, when he was still a Democrat, in opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

Just because I'm getting screwed by the IRS doesn't make me bitter about it enough to help them screw somebody else. I wholeheartedly support anyone in their efforts to avoid the legal plunder, the outright theft that is our tax code.

Waffle House is my go to spot for after drink meals. I wonder if the service levels you have received were centered around a certain area as while I have gotten fair service on the low end, I generally get good to sometimes excellent service here at he locations in Memphis. Day or night.

Here goes nothing... Certain things, no matter what some may think, are not up for a vote. That's why the founders set up a republic and not a democracy. To restrain the government and protect the individual from his/her neighbors. What was intended is not what we have where our government on a near daily basis takes up and votes upon matters in which they have no business sticking their overly large proboscides. You often give the impression that as long as a democratic process is followed, the outcome is valid. When the subjects being submitted to that democratic process are life, liberty and property I would soundly reject that position as not just incorrect but wholly immoral.

I miss those guys. :lol:

Finally got to watch the episode. Todd doesn't surprise me, he always was a psychopath. That was settled when he killed the kid. The subdued slow burning intensity of the last couple of episodes ism building up to one hell of an explosive ending. I am both anxiously awaiting the finale and dreading it.

Tanker, I will also point out that the franchise was not nearly as universal initially as you make it sound. Initially the franchise was restricted to white, landowning males above the age of 21. Non land owners in got the vote prior to Lincoln's War, Blacks got the vote in increments from the 1860s to 1960s, women in the 1920s and 18-20 year olds in 71. There is a very strong case to be made that as the franchise was expanded to those without real skin in the game, the deterioration of the country accelerated.

Drinking some Schlafly pumpkin ale. Good stuff. Pumpkin beer that tastes like pumpkin. Unlike that god awful New Belgium Pumpkick which tasted like fricken cranberries.

:screwy:

I'm not a gamer, so maybe that's why I don't understand what the hell you are talking about. My wife and I have been together 12 years and I still try to get sex as much as she will let me. :lol:

Well done, sir.

It is disappointing when I have really excellent farts by myself. To truly appreciate fine flatulence requires an audience and if it is captive, in a vehicle with the power windows locked out, all the better. :D
