It seems like I have repeated this until I am blue in the face and folks like you just refuse to get it. Romney was never going to get my vote, nor the vote of any real Libertarian. Whenever you vote your conscience you are not throwing the vote away, no matter how impossible it is for your chosen candidate to win. Romney was a terrible candidate who was on the wrong side of all of the civil liberty issues I was concerned with. From the NDAA, to the drone wars, Gitmo, drug laws and the Patriot Act Romney had the same stance as Obama on all these issues. Why on earth would I vote for him?

So what you are saying is that want an enforced duopoly with only the approved parties allowed on the ballot? Hrmm, ok.

[quote name='mikegideon' timestamp='1352306805' post='841050'] Thanks for cheering me up [/quote]No problem, anytime. [quote name='LINKS2K' timestamp='1352306806' post='841051'] You can count on that. Have you been reading the threads the last [s]six months[/s] 4 years? [/quote]FTFY

[quote name='mikegideon' timestamp='1352304738' post='841031'] So... it's over. [/quote] It has been over for a long time. I've said it before, but it bears repeating. The republic is dead, she just ain't stopped moving yet.

[quote name='personDJ' timestamp='1352267334' post='840827'] You are wrong. almost all the money we owe is from Bush. He started with no debt he had extra and wasted that also. [/quote] I think you should look up the difference between "deficit" and "debt", just sayin'.

Maybe I should have continued the quoting, my last post was laughing about the Romney comment. speaking of which, would it change your mind if I told you that the 1911 in question was a Taurus?

[quote name='LINKS2K' timestamp='1352257762' post='840611'] Elitist! Jk [/quote] Is this where I mention that it was for a 1911?

[quote name='LINKS2K' timestamp='1352257192' post='840595'] I think that he nailed everyone with the Uncle Mikes first holster. [/quote] Nope, my first holster was a Don Hume.

[quote name='Mark@Sea' timestamp='1352188163' post='839901']Well, if you want to see it burn, Johnson is as good a choice as any.[/quote] Yep, almost as good as Obamney.

No Mark, I actually believe in the ideals of the Libertarian Party. Gary Johnson is the candidate who most closely aligns with my views, therefore I am voting FOR him, not against someone else. I vote my conscience, regardless of the ability of the candidate to win. Here's the thing, even if Johnson won this race in some alternate universe, it wouldn't change anything. The American people have lost the will to be independent. They do not have the intestinal fortitude to be able to stomach the harsh medicine this country needs to right itself and prevent collapse. New Rome is a tinderbox just needing the right spark, and my only wish is that I am around to see the carnage as it all burns to the ground.

[quote name='Wyldk2' timestamp='1352183768' post='839893']IMHO, The first responder needs to refresh himself on the laws in his state. Each state is different and i understand it might be hard for one who enforces those laws to remember every one. Both sides could have acted a bit better i do agree, But it seems like the Initiating leo didn't need to handcuff the rider. It's good that the rider( marine pilot) did record this encounter or we might not have gotten his side of the story. Here in Tennessee it probably would have gone another direction. [B]Because in this state you are required to let the officer know of any firearms on your person or in the vehicle. Just to save a hassle, it's best to hand your permit with your license and registration.[/b] Luckily( knock on wood) i have not had a such encounter with police. I don't usually open carry, but i have not been stopped by police since having a gun permit either. Yes, i'm either that good at driving or my vehicle looks like a LEv.[/quote] The first part of the highlighted portion is incorrect, TN is NOT a must notify state. While you are not required to notify, you are required to produce the permit on request if asked and you have a firearm on you. That being said, I completely agree with the second sentence of the highlighted section.

Oh, I know who I am voting for. I am voting for Gary Johnson. It is no longer enough for me to vote against someone. I'm sick of pinching my nose to vote and then still being left with a bad taste in my mouth afterwards. Voting for the major parties is reminiscent of being a prison bitch. You don't want what either one wants to give you; all you get is a choice of which one is going to #### you. Either way you are left with a sore ass.

[quote name='LINKS2K' timestamp='1352178544' post='839884'] I don't think that Romney is evil. I just don't believe that he is anymore a man of his word than Obama. With that being said, none of it matters at this point in the game. The point of no return is less than 24 hours away.[/quote] I would say the point of no return passed decades ago. We're just riding this ship down to the bottom at this point. Speaking of ships, this showed up on my fb and I think it sums the situation up nicely. "Voting for Obama is like the Titanic backing up and hitting the iceberg a second time. Voting for Romney is like the Titanic backing up and hitting a different iceberg. "

The M&P is available with and without the ILS. If perchance, you find that you have purchased one with an ILS, they are not difficult to remove as long as you have basic mechanical skills and a few punches.

I'm not a hunter so my thoughts are likely worth exactly what you paid for them, but here they are. If you are engaged in the SPORT of hunting, I view baiting as very poor form. If you are hunting to put food on the table, well, that's a different matter entirely. Take advantage of whatever method you can to feed the family.

[quote name='6.8 AR' timestamp='1351979239' post='838485'] Maybe you should get involved in your Republican Party. What makes you think Romney won't be conservative? He is a conservative businessman. His role in MA politics doesn't have anything to do with whether or not he will be conservative. And that AWB argument won't hold 5 seconds of methane gas coming out of someone's ass.[/quote] Saving this for posterity. The absurdity of this post is completely awesome. Thank you for the laugh, I needed it.

I've never cared for the Glock. Just don't like 'em. I'm a certified M&P fanboy, they just plain feel good in my hand. That's based off of nothing more than the completely subjective criteria of my personal preference. This seems to have turned into an Glock vs M&P thread when it really isn't an either/or proposition. They are both outstanding guns, I, personally, just happen to like one and dislike the other.

I've said this everywhere where I have seen this story posted. Would you expect anything different from New Jersey, the land where it is illegal to pump your own gas?

The black coating is Lubalox, which Winchester still uses on their SXZ line of ammo for Bass Pro. I actually still carry some Black Talons in my M&P along with some Ranger Ts.

I would be interested as well. This might be worth a trip over from Mempho for.
