  1. You really don't have the slightest idea how our legal system works, do you? (rhetorical question, youv already shown you don't) You sound just like the ignorant people in videos from the side of he road screaming about how they know their rights when they don't know their asshole from their elbow. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  2. I agree, with the addendum that since he supposedly offered some of the jobs to "minorities" before falling back on whites, it's really doubtful. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  3. Should the people hired be the best at the job, or the best looking to people who disagree with everything the new gov is doing anyway? Does it really scream racism when he has offered the job to people of other races? Who is more racist, the person hiring folks without thinking about skin color, or the people screaming that those hired are not the right color? http://www.fallsnewspress.com/news/article/4971529 Just read the comments in that article and think about what the screeching harpy of a caucus leader is saying. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

  6. To the eight people who believe these shotguns should be banned, I ask: why? Do you think guns with these features are used in more crimes? Do you think they make the guns much more dangerous? What is gained by banning guns with these features? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  7. First, it's with law enforcement, or in a field directly related to and affected by law enforcement. I don't enforce the law right, and I'm not sure whether I will again or not. I haven't hung up the spurs, but they are gathering dust at the moment. Personally, I think it is asinine to have laws that forbid a person to record his own actions and interactions with others. (third party recording is differen and should require consent of at least one of the recorded) When dealing with public officers or employees, I don't think there should be any expectation of privacy for the member of the public or the government worker. How did you come up with life in prison? Wiretapping laws, while felonies, tend to carry less than ten year sentences. Coming to life terms, you have to combine numerous violations of the law, or three strikes type laws. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  8. I'm still waiting for a good answer to a simple question posed to the BATFE: What do "sporting purposes" have to do with the Second Amendment? According to UNITED STATES v. MILLER, 307 U.S. 174 (1939) the second amendment protects the right of private citizens to possess arms that are suitable for use by a militia. Of course, if counsel for the defendant had actually shown for the hearing and presented any material, the decision probably would have been even clearer and more favorable to gun rights. It is difficult to understand how a court can choose to decide based solely on hearing the government's side. Oh, and kallend or anyone else who suggests ammunition should be controlled or limit by law, should read Miller. The Second Amendment really isn't about duck hunting. It protects arms suitable for use by a militia. I also wonder, what government interest is served in denying these firearms to citizens? Why should people be barred from buying these guns? Why shouldn't people buy them? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  9. Nope, nothing random about it at all. It's exactly what alternet tells you to think about every little thing, with some extra "hate America" and "hooray for Hamas" thrown in. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  10. Is he going to call Tunisia Yemen and Algeria puppet states too? They are seeing mass protests afterall. Or would it be more appropriate to say that people are pissed off at authoritarian governments? The palestinian territories and Lebanon are having troubles as well, though we can pretty much blame that on Hezbollah. Paying attention is usually a food idea. Or you can join the blame America first brigade with dreamdancer and regurgitate how everything is because of the Great Satan. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Another one!! Too bad the kids didn't have guns to defend themselves!! [url]http://www.google.com/search?q=mom+kills+kids&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&client=safari And yet you're not saying anything about cars, alcohol, pools, ISPs that don't block farmville, and everything else on just the first page. Zo, vhy are you so interested in ze guns? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  12. Nope. They made a dead guy. That's a completely different issue from whether or not they had a right to be there. The right to be there is far more clear, and understood by everyone except VinceP. The shooting is far more contentious issue, but it is supported by the department, external investigation, the local prosecutor, and I'd wager FBI review. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  13. Is Egypt a member of OPEC? Does it export a significant amount of oil? By your definition, anyone attacking Mexico or Canada must be doing it "for the oil." Afterall, they are number two and three for producing oil in N America. And Canada has more oil than anyone except Saudi Arabia. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  14. I'm sorry, but this argument is crap. Was the residence itself under arrest? The roommate, who left, was the one the police were after. There was absolutely no reason for them to be in this residence. Do you understand what a search warrant is? It is authorization (in some places a legal requirement) for officer to seize a location, person, or object and search it for evidence listed in the warrant. So yes, in your limited vocabulary, the house was 'under arrest' until it was searched. Try to understand: even if the roommate was the target if the investigation, the search warrant was for the house, so the officers searched the house. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  15. Well, since we can all agree that he wasn't referencing Biggby Coffee, then yes it's slang for Mexican. Having picked up a disturbing amount of info on anti Hispanic racism and inter Hispanic racism, I think the term was actually used against Mexicans by other Hispanics first. See frijoleros. Mexicans are generally seen as the bottom of the totem pole, kind of like Palestinians on the Arab totem pole. You could compare it to buey/guey (sounds like "way"). Say it to a Mexican, and it's almost like calling him dude. Say it to a south or central American or Hispanic Carib and you can expect a very pissed off response. Folks disagree on just how offensive it really is. I think it's comparable to calling a frenchman a frog. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  16. The trouble with that is when most people say factory ammo, they mean low cost low quality ammo. That kind of ammo is to accuracy like Coors light is to getting drunk. It technically qualifies, but really it isn't gonna happen. Having said that, match grade ammo is produced in a factory, too, you know. And again you're blaming the gun. Did you ever have them establish that THEY can shoot five rounds under an inch? That is simply unacceptable for a long gun. We shoot slugs and poly-shok rounds out of a smooth bore gun with only a bead sight (not even any decent iron sights) and we print clover leafs. That's with Remington 870s using 19 inch barrel and no custom gunsmithing. Any gun that shoots like that should go back to the manufacturer with a "WTF" tag on it. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  17. The price we pay in this country for finished product paved roads, they ought to be paved with gold. Or at least gold plated. Obama is a socialist. It's Bush's fault. Clinton did it first. Bleeding heart commie pinko liberal pansies. Heartless greedy conservatard repubiclowns. It's the muslims' fault. It's the religious right's fault. It's those godless heathen atheists' fault. Did I cover all the bases? Or should it be the jews' fault, and then we can invoke Godwin's Law? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  18. How do you they didn't have one? Making assumptions, or have you seen a source that says they don't. The thing is, how would having one have helped in this case? The guy came through the door blasting. You think some little machine going beep and light up would have stopped him? Really? You think the shooter stopped for any reason other than the fact that the officers shot him? If he stopped killing because they shot him, then I'd say the whole guns-for-self-defense thing worked out pretty well. Really? I'm pretty sure heroin is illegal everywhere in the USA. How's that working out? I'm pretty sure IEDs are illegal in Russia. How's that working out? I'm pretty sure alcohol was illegal during Prohibition. How'd that work out? There are even island nations that ban or severely limit gun ownership. Do you think they are free of violent gun crimes? Banning things doesn't make them impossible to get, and madmen don't need guns to go on killing sprees. So why ban guns, if it wouldn't accomplish your goals. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  19. While that fucked-in-the-head dirtbag does have the right not to be tortured, nothing in the supermax is inherently torture, despite what dreamdancer would like to claim. So yes, he needs to be there to protect him from others, others from him, and him from himself. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  20. Like the man said, keep a log, learn your dope, and take a good SWAG. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  21. Pic attached below. Yes, they can print what pictures they like as long as they are not suggesting he actually is a nazi (liable). However, I wonder how they would react to photshopped pictures of Hugo Chavez or Che wearing the swastika and Hitler-stache. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  22. He needs better ammo. I wonder if it qualifies as HE rounds. You KNOW that those beers are going to be nothing but fizz after they blow up on openning. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  23. The plain fact is that any firearm from a respectable manufacturer is acapable of more accuracy that the shooter. In other words, we're not good enough to worry about how good the rifle is. If you get a top notch evil black rifle, you are the limiting factor to accurate bullet placement, not the gun. I like guns that have more than one use, so I doubt I'll ever have a tricked out distance gun. And while I'm happy to try out a Barrett .50bmg, that's not my thing. I'll take AR variants any day (though I prefer piston operated to the original stoner design; score one for the commies) witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  24. I really doubt anyone has said that if everyone had a gun there would be no crime. What a number of people have said is that when people are armed, criminals are more likely to reconsider their targets. In a number of places that have relaxed gun laws, violent crime has dropped and property crime has risen. It's not exactly a reduction in crime, but it's a trade I'll take. More importantly, we can't control what another person is or is not going to do. If someone wants to attack you with a deadly weapon, there isn't a damn thing you can do about it. We can't prevent it in prisons, we can't prevent it in courtrooms, we can't prevent it in public, and we can't prevent it in our own homes. Those are the facts of life. The question is what are you going to do about it. I chose to prepare myself for violent encounters, should tehy occur. I also chose to seek professional training in diffusing potentially violent encounters and dealling with mentally disturbed people. Along those same lines, while we can't prevent others from committing crimes against us, we can react in the most effective manner to stop that crime or to reduce its intensity and severity. A good example is that when a nutjob walks into a building firing a shotgun and means to kill people, armed folks shoot back and kill him. It's much better than not being armed. Do you disagree that return fire limited the number of victims and the severity of injuries to the victims? Finally, and as you yourself enjoy firearms I'd hope you agree, I don't see any value in the government creating prohibitions against firearms. I also don't see any value in government registering firearms. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  25. (A) We're still waiting for you to tell us exactly what you think is torture. (B) Do you think that inmates who have shown by their behavior while incarcerated that they are a danger to themselves and a danger to others should be housed separately from others? (C) If you chose to keep inamtes with a proven track record of violence with other inmates, do you worry about the rights of those other inmates who are now subjected to harm that you could have prevented? (D) If you don't want dangerous inmates in solitary or in supermax prisons, and you don't want to mix them with general population housing, what better answer do you have? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
