Welcome! My name is JC,and when I first read the title I said"hmm I dont remember telling anybody to sign up here lately!

Maybe if I carried a purse,Id have room for an extra gun! Otherwise I do not have enough pockets. There is another one near by though! When its your time to go,its your time to go,plane and simple. However thats not to stop someone else from changing the "plan".Nobody/thing/higherbeing can or will stop that from happening except yourself in some instances.Ive been there,done that!You gotta help yourself!

Babysitter? All I got was a remote,and a bag of potato chips and I turned out just fine!

There are severals problem with any system.The system we have now does not work.Any proposed system will not work. Unfortunately,insurance needs to be done away with,plane and simple. A great example is the auto repair industries. If your car breaks down,you pay to have it fixed.However if you wreck it,theres no way in hell you could afford to pay to fix it,and thats because of insurance. Problem being,medical facilities,doctors,etc will not give up the ins system because thats who pays them(most of the time anyway) without problems.So thats not going to happen! The problem with the "social ins" is that people do not want to pay for it. However what folks do not seem to see is that they already pay for it now,its just spread out instead of one single bill. You pay for it with increased ins premiums,increased medical bills,and through your taxes. When someone without ins goes to the ER for a cold,you pay for it,not the uninsured,and definitely not the hospital. Ive done allot of studying on the matter,and there are some major ups to the social system,and some major downs to it as well. I personally have been on more sides of the ins mess then your average person.Ive had great service that still cost me an arm and a leg for the little stuff,but Ive also been failed by them when I had my wreck,and was left with over a million dollars in legitimate medical bills,unpaid with no recourse. I also have friends that went through the same thing as myself that had no ins.Funny thing is they received better service,was allowed to stay in the hospitals longer,and better/longer rehabilitation then I received from United Health Care.They also never received any million dollar bills afterwards! Currently I use Medicare,which is gov funded.Its not free for me,or anybody as far as I know btw. Ive yet to receive any of the horrible problems,and bad service from them that people say will happen from gov ins It has problems,big problems,but it doesn't have the same type of problems as private ins does. I'm not for social ins,really I'm not,but I guess my educated opinion,and experiences has changed my mind on the matter.I am for something different then whats being used now though! If thats social,or no private ins,or monkeys with stethoscopes,makes no difference to me

Ello,and welcome

Yeah,taxes Also I never said one had to be in office to have an opinion. That was just a question as I'm curios whats being done to change things Myself,I am doing things local that affect me.I'm mostly involved with the smaller stuff like parks... See I only assume that when something bothers you,or you're passionate enough you will involve yourselves to make things more along the lines of your thought. Thats what I'm doing,evidentially hes not doing anything Ok,better! Not conspiracy,or off the wall or anything! Me? Honestly Ive not really been following it that much because its pointless to me. There is way to much to it,way to complex for an educated opinion on it especially considering the biased reporting. Ive not read the ten billion pages,nor do I plan too! Personally I dont see how gov spending will improve things at this time,but I have no idea if it will or not!

Welcome aboard

You're still in the break in period. Just shoot the bajeezus out of it,and give it a real good cleaning! I'm not sure as to the quantiles on that one,but I think most are around 200 rounds or so,some upwards 500.

How is the Gov turning us into "economic slaves"? Ill be kind enough to post the definition of slave: Ill also be kind enough to post the definition of the word servitude: So,how is the Gov completely removing our liberties,and how are we "completely subservient to a dominating influence"which is the gov here? I'm not sure why you're saying that,I never addressed you.Actually you've never posted anything in this thread,or any other thread(as far as I can remember anyway) to make me feel such towards you. Actually I dont think we have ever even replied to one another,or had any sort of conversations before. Yes this is a Political sub forum. Like said,there is a difference between a political discussion,and just whining about the "imperial"Gov turning us into "slaves" Edit: Id like to ask you nra,what have you done to try and change things for the better? Have you ever ran for office,etc? Edit 2: Id also like to mention that Ill be the first person to complain about how things are with the Gov as they are now. I also hate how big the Gov is also.....who doesn't! But I'm not about to start moaning,and groaning,and spitting out non-sense about how the Gov is just out to get us

Thats something you do not have! It usually hangs out between the two thighs on an average adult male. You might try Google,or wiki to do some "in-depth" research on the "subject"
-
Yeah,what they said! Welcome aboard,enjoy your stay,and get to know us

Whats the name of the board again? I'm not against political issues at all.In fact I participate in them quite often,but there is a line between what is sane,and what is just plane wacko. In this thread he is talking about making "slaves" out of people,and an "imperial government" ...dude. But I guess that just means Ill squeal like a sheep when they rape me
-
I'm not saying is arguments are not good,or bad,I'm just tired of hearing them! This is a GUN board! Not an anti-gov board,not a conspiracy board,not a lets bitch about something board. Its getting a little old that one can not open a single thread without seeing nra,or you making some ridiculous claim about how the Gov sucks. If you're really that tired of the gov then do something about it other then rant over the interwebz all live long day.And I'm pretty sure yall haven't or we would have already read about it like a bigilion times. So until I see somebody on the 6:00 news running for office,or taking signatures for a petition,yall have absolutely no credibility with me.....and I dont think I'm the only one....

I do believe I have seen restaurant reports in the paper on them,so Id say yes. Although it would take an excursion guide to navigate through all the brush! You mean the little lady? Yeah,shes a little wild handling anything! Methinks she needs some ritalin -
I do believe Skips has some in stock for under that price.Not sure what brand though I went with a Spikes myself,and had Skip do the trans.
