Now go show us you have a pair and address all of taht big post, I spent some time putting it togther; don't be a Clem. Sorry, I've about reached my fill of EBSB52 for now. Problem is, you aren't open to anything other than "Republican = bad" and "Democrat = good". You're good a...

Regarding compulsory military service, I have to disagree. We have the finest military in the world, due to the outstanding caliber of people that volunteer for it and make it what it is. Forcing these people to serve with those who don't want to be there would simply lower morale, and would decreas...

That's noble to yourself, your family and your country, but not everyone acts with such regard and since their actions affest us all, we need to regulate and that's where Bush, Greenspan, Congress, the banking system, and Bush's cabinet failed. This is a failure by the party that thinks we can oper...

Not set terms at work, but to negotiate for them. As for the HOA idiocy you posted, I have never posted for the abolition of HOA's, in fact I told Will that people should avoid buying HOA houses so that an HOA home is devalued. So you stepped in it again. I don't advocate for union closed shop stat...

The original point was that I know of people who were cowardly Repukes like you, had an event occur where they needed social svs, help, etc and then they became quit a bit less conservative. If you want to be the neo-con trash you are and get semantic, fine, but the point stands. You've never met m...

Lack of HOA has been one of the things I've been looking for in a house around here. HOA dues are money flushed down the toilet... not as bad as condo fees, but still pretty useless. I'm moving out of the rental next week. This area has a HOA and the only thing I've ever gotten for the landlord's H...

you obviously bought into the association and its practices since you live in one. you can only blame yourself. No, if you read you would have seen that I wrote it's my GF's house and she's one of those lemmings. It is clear to me now that you just write what you feel and don't even look at other p...

Several friends, my dad and Ray Crone, a guy who spent 10 years in prison for starters. Sounds like only a few people, and you can't count that high? Not surprising, but it does shed some light on how your thought process works. Oh, the costs. Unlike the history of military spending. We spend 8 tim...

Seen it more times than I can count. So you've seen it what, 4 or 5 times? Obamacare isn't likely to come soon, given the immense costs it would incur and the fact that the economy is in the shitter. Pull your head out of your partisan ass and take a look at what's happening in other countries that...

Political calls are specifically exempted from this.

I had never heard of the case before. Interesting, but I'm thinking there must not be much to it, since no one's really tried to make political gravy out of it.

Areas that have CCW permits show more violent crime than normal. A. Correlation != causality B. "Areas that have CCW permits" = almost the entire country. If you want to support that argument, show that crime is LOWER in areas WITHOUT CCW permits. Since those areas include Washington DC a...

Your article explains the dip as being representative of a change in the way information was gathered. Those numbers are based on impact surveys. Crime IS improving in the states. However, unless a CCW policy nationwide was implemented between 1997 and 1999, you can't seriously attribute this to fi...

Except that it doesn't seem to work out that way. Areas that have CCW permits show more violent crime than normal. There's no return of investment, no tangible benefit. On the bad end of the scale, it seems to make things worse, and at the very best it makes no difference at all in the numbers. Sin...

Go look at some of the Concealed/Carry fansites in the states, and tell me again how disciplined and calm these people are. I have a concealed carry permit, and I know many others who also have them. As with any group, there are some who tend to be irresponsible. But judging from those I have met, ...

Talk to someone who works for UPS or Fed Ex. You're happier not knowing how much they lose and break shit. Very true. For those not in the "industry", you'd be surprised at the amount of loss. FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, it doesn't matter. For quick service, try USPS--seriously. I'm in AZ, and...

Most of the time a 9mm will bounce off a windshield, a .40 will not. I'm not a huge fan of 9mms, they seem like a pea shooter when compared to a .40 or especially a .45 I personally love a sig. My father in law has a sig .40 and its a sweet shooting gun. If I had to have only 1 handgun, that would ...

HK's are very nice, without a doubt. But I usually get groups of about 2" at 15 yards with my Glock, which is more than adequate for a defensive handgun. At closer ranges, (3-7) yards, I can quite often keep all the shots in a half inch group, and sometimes in one ragged hole. It's likely more ...

From a reliability standpoint, I've got to recommend a Glock. I've owned all sorts of handguns, and I keep coming back to the Glock. Utterly reliable, accurate, and readily available parts and accessories. Their midsize models, the 19 and 23 (9mm and .40 S&W respectively) are a great balance bet...
