  1. They did when I lived with them. Where are you going now? Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  2. Oh, I thought an armed society was a polite society? That day I learned to be polite to the long haired freak guy. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  3. Like I thought, we have different ideas about being polite. well, it was polite right AFTER he: - threw the first punch - with a metal object and before - continuing to "beat the shit" out of the cowboy (implies he continued to throw punches even after the fight was done) the asshole probably was just trying to impress the hot girl in the bar. You know, the one that had 'most' of her teeth. No girls, there was only us three dudes drinking beer and the bartender. I think the freak guy was just tired on taking shit from cowboys and this one was a target of opportunity. Men behave like that in bars sometimes.

  4. I thought an armed society was a polite society? Maybe we just have different ideas about what is polite? Well on the polite side, I witnessed a bar fight between a long haired freak and a short haired cowboy. The freak actually threw the first punch, a beer can rim end straight into the face of the cowboy. A couple punches later the freak guy reached behind him and pulled his pistol out of his belt and tossed it to the bartender as an act of kindness. Then he proceeded to beat the shit out of the cowboy. It was the polite thing to do because he had the advantage. The freak was still sober.

  5. Someone shot at you b/c of that??? Holy sh*t, you surely are taking the sub or a bus in winter time now, right? (And if the bus is starting to dash on icy winter road, all passengers are shot? What are you doing, then?) Sliding on an icy road happened to me, too. I was expecting a giant thud but, never any muzzle flash. It seems, several of you guys lost a natural feeling for danger in the wild - not every sliding car is armed from tires to roof, some of them simply are sliding as it's an icy road Holy Jesus, throw some satori, please. There is/was no public transportation in Taos. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  6. For a self proclaimed Christian, you certainly spew a lot of hatred. I'm sure Jesus would be proud. Do you realize that the object of the humor, to me anyways, is liberalism. They perpetuate the system of bondage for political gain. Hate, no liberalism cannot exist without conservatism. It is the same as National League and American League in MLB or NFL and AFL in professional football. I support conservatism in general because I truly believe it is the best path for the U.S.A. Oh, and I believe that Jesus likes a good contest because the only thing that truly matters is salvation. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  7. From what I hear on local news radio, all LE agencies are preparing for worst case scenarios. The main topics are 1) financial boon to local economy and 2) potential violence.

  8. By "just about everybody," what percentage do you mean? The rule of thumb when I was there, Jul 76 - Jan 81, 80% of the people are driving around high on something 80% of the time and they all have guns. How accurate is that statement? I can't say but, I and my friends accepted it as a watchword. I was only shot at once, three rounds. That incident occurred when I slid through a stop sign on a icy road at night and scared another driver. ``All calculations based on our experiences elsewhere fail in New Mexico.'' ~ Former Governor Lew Wallace Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  10. A black kid asks his dad, "Dad, what's democracy?"(Wait...the kid doesn’t know his Dad...let's start over....) A black kid asks his mom, "Mama, what's a democracy?""Well, son, that's when whites work every day so we can get all our benefits!""But mama, don’t the white people get pissed off about that?""Sure they do, but that's called racism!" ~Author Unknown Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  12. IMO, it's becoming ever more reasonable to classify people in SC debates as those that favor markets, and those that favor government. Markets, by definition, have many buyers and many sellers. In a market transaction, if I don't like what's on the table, I move on to the next buyer/seller. Likewise, markets are known to produce cost effective excellence through competition. Government offers neither of these. You can't walk away from a transaction with a government, nor is there any competition to produce cost effective excellence in government. For those people that favor government, they tend to have a negative view of their fellow man when it comes to markets. Ah, you can't trust men in market situations. Yet, they'll take some of their fellow men, elevate them into position of governments, and trust them. Their view makes no sense to me. We stand together here. Thanks for sharing your viewpoint so succinctly. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  13. Since I live in the Tampa Bay Area, I have decided not to go anywhere near the RNC this month. Everyone is expecting trouble. We just pray that it is not too explosive.

  14. After living in Taos, NM, where just about everyone carried a gun or some other weapon, I learned that it is best not to attack someone when you get angry at them. An armed society is a more polite society. IMO Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  15. It's because they are true believers. They think that the government will ration out equality and fairness. Take form the rich and give to the poor. Do you remember Ernesto "Che" Guevara? He was a true believer. He followed Fidel Castro into all kinds of atrocities, killing women and children and such in the name of fairness and equality for all. But, when Castro was done with him he kicked him out and he was eventually shot dead in a barn in Columbia, if memory serves. He was a "useful idiot". If a person is willing to commit such horrific acts, what makes them trust worthy? It's a story that is worth being told again because it comparable with what is going on in politics today. Look at Obama's most negative campaign in recent history. And after he is in power, do you really think that it will be equality and fairness for all? Or do you think that some are more equal that others? They have been working hard over recent years to put controls in place (get people on food stamps, welfare, etc...) so that way they can continue to ration to the the people while they party it up. And like I said, if you want your rations to continue to come to you, you better vote for the right party.... I agree 100%, just don't understand how or why they became true believers. Avoiding full responsibility by advocating higher taxes, thus allowing the government to assume more responsibility, and claiming that is being responsible is as close as I can come to a convoluted logic in defense of liberalism. The fallacy in the theory is that the government is terribly inefficient in solving the problems for which they have responsibility. Tax revenue tends to make government bigger not better. BTW, Che was neutralized in Bolivia. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

  17. How can you be so utterly oblivious to the fact, that his pursuit of a college degree is not the problem but his access to a weapon. You must be trolling in the last sentence because you cannot equate killing and education... Nobody can be that ignorant. Edited to add: Please ignore, I obviously fed the troll. Or you missed it woooooosh Missed what? Care to elaborate? Perhaps, for you this is just another funny event in your country But for us aliens: What The F*ck is that funny in your eyes??

  18. How is projection at all related to liberal beliefs? And if it is, how can devoted conservatives like yourself possibly be guilty of it? I think you're trying to be funny, but I've lost the thread. Projection as a psychological term means believing that outside forces are causing negative emotions. It is frequently associated with paranoia. Not all conservatives are mature in all areas of life. They are just more developed than liberals. Everybody knows that.

  19. And you think liberals are the ones who blame their own problems on others. Of course not. It is called projection and conservatives are guilty as well. It stems from the lack of maturational development and continuing to embrace adolescent liberal beliefs, attitudes and mores. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  20. Touche' I took that position awhile back and the liberals tried to eat me alive. You are absolutely correct, if someone is not put in a lesser place the joke is probably not funny. I even forgot about my own OPEC comment. Geez, I'm getting old. I invite you to the Texas A&M shooting thread. Some don't think I'm funny there either.

  21. See, there is your problem. You can't determine the focus of the humor. Homicide is not funny. Well, most of it isn't. What is funny is the placing the blame on a ridiculous cause. Oh, what's the use?! If you have to explain it the audience is just not capable of getting it. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  22. Given your posting history, I really can't tell if you're joking. If you are, don't give up your day job, stand-up comedy isn't your forte. Don Well, at least I made you think about it. Maybe you just don't have a sense of humor. I noticed that with liberals. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

  24. According to KBTX anchor Steve Fullhart, Caffall's mother released a statement late Monday saying he had "been ill." "It breaks our hearts his illness led to this," the statement read. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/report-shooter-apprehended-near-texas-m-campus-183653265.html This is obviously another tragic situation where someone with mental illness was allowed to enroll in college without an adequate background check. How long before we realize the irresponsibility of owning a college degree. The liberal progressive democratic party will meet and sustain our needs, wants and desires. Obama and his administration is all that we truly need. A college education is not guaranteed by the Constitution. This senseless education and killing has got to stop.

  25. Let's change that by adding some intriguing humour then.... http://www.atheistmemebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/018-Jesus-last-thought.jpg Your English is not well applied.
