    Thank you Mac.  That was a great read.  You are much more eloquent than I could hope to be.  I think we may see things similarly.  Thank you for posting.             I have had the pleasure of meeting Mike personally a couple of times.  Mike is a good guy.  He was more than likely just trying to keep me in check.   I apologize to everyone if you thought I was trying to call out the entire membership.  That was not my intention.  But if the shoe fits, then I meant it one hundred percent.  I apologize for coming across harshly.  But I have tried in several threads to spark intelligent intercourse and my posts are overlooked or ignored.  My questions never being answered.  Every time one of these starts up, I become more and more aggravated with that fact.  So when I got to this one I was just a bit overcome.  I may have worded things poorly and thats on me.  

You misunderstand my posts. It wasn't aimed the forum as a whole and I refuse to call anyone out specifically. My mother used to tell me that if it doesn't apply to you, ignore it. Probably would have worked well here. I'm honestly not interested in having the last word. I just wanted my point understood and I believe that my post above is about as good as it's going to get from me. I am no wordsmith.

I used to like it here a lot. I posted a lot and got a lot from this place. Something changed. Not necessarily the board or anyone else. It could have been me. But I realized that there are only a couple of forums with information relevant to my interests anymore and I try to stay in them. Knives for instance. NFA for another. But every once in a while I find myself in general. Where there never fails to be a thread with someone calling all black people criminals. Or perhaps it's about the terrorists in the Middle East. Everyone in that region is a terrorist. No exceptions. Or maybe a thread about all the gays and the "gay agenda." Just constant non stop intolerant threads. And it's not just here. Every gun forum seems to have the same. Do I like it here!? I don't know. I don't dislike it. But I do dislike the level of hate that spews in every thread about anyone that isn't a white 'merican. So the best thing for me is to probably just remember to stay away from everything but the blades tools section and I'll likely get on just fine.

That preconceived notion is based on the posts made by others in threads similar to this. So while I might not know them, I do know they have a habit of posting bigoted comments. So I win again. Had fun playing.

    You are going to have to point it out because I'm not whining.  I'm just telling you all what I think of you. 

    I wasn't calling you out.  I was talking about the people upset about the commercial.   America the Beautiful is not a sacred song or anything.  And even if it were, whats wrong with accepting other people and other languages.  Have y'all forgotten that other nations helped up gain independence and build this country?        O beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea!     What part of this says that people can't sing it in other languages.  No one will ever convince me that singing a singing a song in a different language is an insult.  Its like saying that people in those places aren't allowed to like America.      

Exactly what I expect from this forum. The same old bigoted geezers whining about how their feelings got hurt. Y'all act all tough and dream about killing people that wrong you but cry more than my 8 month old niece when she hits her head on something. GROW UP!!!!

I can't tell you exactly what the judicial committe is in charge of. But basically they review the bill to ensure that it doesn't violate civil liberty issues or something along those lines.     *EDIT*  Here is the official description of the judicial committee.   It will likely go to a few more committees before the full senate and then the governors desk. If you want to learn, follow along at the link I've posted.

    You can watch the following page for updates.  It has not yet been added to a calendar.     http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/BillInfo/default.aspx?BillNumber=SB1771&GA=108 Last year, I posted updates as often as I could and kept the board in the know with the calendar.  I'll be doing the same this year. 

I'm no hinderer fan (anymore). But I do like his new model. I think his pricing is a little off though. I personally owned an XM and a Flashpoint in the past. But I have friends that had pretty awesome collections. Here is a pic of me and a buddy out to lunch.

Mailed in July.  Check cashed in July.  Pending September 11th.  I expect it back sometime in the distant future. 

    With the certification of trust, I was able to get mine setup.  It took longer than normal as I was using a small bank and they had never done it before.  But within a few hours, I was up and running. 

    I've put off replying to this because I didn't want to make an ass of myself.  But I can't help it.   I will not thank Terry Ashe for anything.  I will not write him any kind of positive letter.  Regardless of how you worked with him and changed his mind or whatever, this is the same guy that sat there last year and said that a switchblade sounds like a shotgun.  I will support this bill because I want it to pass but I will not support Ashe in any way. 

    Its not appearance.  I don't want my knife to come open on draw.  I can open it.  I don't want anything to snag.  I've cut myself a lot because of a wave.  

As someone that hates the wave, I want them to do a couple models without it.  

      I just want to second this sentiment.  If your budget allows, get RMJ.  You will be getting the best there is and money stays here.  Just like buying SOE gear! 

GMRS DOES REQUIRE A LICENSE!   http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/general-mobile-radio-service-gmrs     Again, GMRS requires a license.  

There is no reason to follow that closely.   Ever.  I don't care who you are.  Leave room.
