  1. CLICKY He has a few points. I think the writing was done with the un-restrictive word, "Arms" though, to account for the future evolution of Arms. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  2. Truly disgusting. CLICKY That youtube page is not shy is it? Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  3. But they went through a process to make sure it would work, not so with the drogues, right? Matt What would make you think Simon did not do any testing with his drogues? If he did, then the poster should have been clearer in his point. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  4. "Routine" school counseling is generally given by psychologists, not psychiatrists. Maybe not in all schools , or with a school making a few financial decisions, like multi tasking their employees. Lets see what they say. Matt I suggest you look up to see what the relative pay and roles of psychiatrists vs psychologists are. Psychiatrists are MDs, generally highly paid, who treat mental illness. Clinical psychologists provide counseling. The likelihood of a psychiatrist giving routine school counseling is somewhere close to zero. Improbable, but not impossible, which is My point. In today's economy, it happens, more and more, that employers ask more from their employees, again lets see what the facts bring to bear, you may be right.

  5. But they went through a process to make sure it would work, not so with the drogues, right? Matt Now you are ASSuming things. Thanks for the banter. Bye. Come on Ray you're better than that, it is a valid question worthy of an actual answer. Best I can recall, this backs the Manufacturers, reading the last sentence or Paragraph "C". c. Assembly of Major Components. The assembly or mating of approved parachute components from different manufacturers may be made by a certificated, appropriately rated parachute rigger in accordance with the parachute manufacturer’s instructions and without further authorization by the manufacturer or the FAA. Specifically, when various parachute components are interchanged, the parachute rigger should follow the canopy manufacturer’s instructions as well as the parachute container manufacturer’s instructions. However, the container manufacturer’s instructions take precedence when there is a conflict between the two. (1) Assembled parachute components must be compatible. Each component of the resulting assembly must function properly and may not interfere with the operation of the other components. For example: Par 13 Page 13 AC 105-2D 5/18/11" So, I think a valid answer is acceptable to expect, to my question. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

  8. Let me understand, you're saying the Manufacturer's word is not true? That no matter what, You can mix and match components? Then why did Icarus, and Precision, etc, have to do testing to receive a manufacturer endorsement for their mains and reserves? If the Cessna "Mod" is wrong, how is the Rig "Mod" right?

  9. You don't like a civilized society that BUTTS OUT of an individuals health care decisions? Since when does "conservative philosophy" embrace governmental interference in a person's medical decisions? I thought you people were against that kind of thing. Isn't that why y'all are so scared of single payer? You prefer corporate tools making these decisions, not the wicked scary government that is the source of all evil. Critical thinking is fading out in a hurry. Proven in the above post BBBBWWWWAAAAKKKKK I hear a right wing parrot!!! How exciting!!! Where are todays talking points as handed down from your masters? Did you not get todays memo? Parrots pretending to have critical thinking skills, where there clearly are none, are rather silly. It must be tough living with such hatred for one group of people.

  10. Chief is having a hard time breathing after reading this he is laughing so hard. Matt That is almost a nice summary of what I believe to be true based on my experiences, yes. It is only PART of what I have offered, but I have never changed my statements. Mr. Cline makes a few critical mistakes in his frequent badgering posts of my belief. He will not correct his errors and I disavow responsibility for his slanderous statements. I see no positive purposes in his posts except to entice a response to badger me further. Kind of an entrapment ploy using my honesty against me. I have stated in the past that the insiders think this is a big joke. I have experienced huge fits of laughter coming from most of them at one time or another. Real F'n funny! Carr is no different. Just another convincing bit of information for me. I see absolutely NOTHING funny about fooling everyone as a National JOKE. There were people that were affected. Maybe a little turn-about is fair pay-back, considering we don't have the power to correct or rectify any injustices caused by this 'terribly funny joke.' Maybe the only thing left to do IS ROFLMAO. I have made no slanderous post about you, only quoted you exactly and proved the posts validity with the screen shots. Deny your lie all you want, but you made it, not me. I am happy that two media entities are willing to run with this story and base their work, on, your story. If your story is truthful, you should want to tell it to the world. If this is just a place for you to feel included, then of course continue to fabricate and deny. But there are actual physical locations you could try for more value.

  11. You seem to be ignoring the Founding Fathers reason for the 2nd. Not at all, but I am NOT ignoring REASONABLE control measures, that will allow us to still have a 2nd Amendment, and allow us to have these weapons for hunting, sport, (target, comp), and self defense.

  12. ,...and the manufacturer is going to throw you under the bus regardless whether you were following their rules or not. I haven't seen that, but I guess it could happen. Chances are less though if one follows the rules. That is the point, follow the rules and chances of lawsuits are less likely, but if one happens less likely you would lose. One of the reasons I let my Tandem I/E expire, no one will follow or enforce the rules. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  13. attacking the movie studio wouldn't be valid, as the nutter had not seen the movie yet, therefore had not been influenced by the movie I can't see the theater being liable either, unless the angle is to show they didn't enforce their rules with detectors and security, thus endangering the patrons.

  14. But when the shit hits the Fan and the T-I and DZO are the complacent causes, the Manufacturer is a co-defendant, since they have the deeper pockets, usually. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  15. How about keep 13 but get rid of 100? Is that really too much to ask? Is that completely unreasonable? Seems fair enough. 31 rds plus for LEO and Mil, 30 and below are plenty for Comps and weekend fun. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  16. but as a president anything goes? if you're hiring someone to be your successor to what currently remains the most powerful position on earth, yeah, pretty much. A bad pick, like Palin, can doom your election. You're not going to pick someone who avoids scrutiny. At the same time, if you turn up something disqualifying, you thank the candidate for his time and send him away, but you don't release the material publicly either. In the Book "Game Changer" McCain wanted Romney he had the creds, but Palin was selected to try and garner the Women's vote to off set the black vote.

  18. What about if you outlawed masturbation for married people? We would never have sex again! or the divorce rate would skyrocket! Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  19. That's not what several trained people have posted in this and other threads. Some have, some have not. But it is a "what if" we wont know the answer too. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  20. Oddly enough, recently the DOD spent 100's of thousands of dollars saying the opposite, no Uniforms in Political Rally's, Parades, Protests etc. Personally, I say lift the veil all the way off and leave each to there own.

  22. I agree with you. Mr Moyers hit the spin button and pushed the throttle forward, even spreading an already proven lie all over again for his personal political advancement. I would like to know where he got the accidental gun shot wound stat he mentions. Most historians who are truthful (and not trying to embellish a story for sales) have shown the perceived wild west gun violence to be far less than us modern know it all believe.

  23. Pretty much. The antis love to crow about the gun show loophole, but all it is is that private parties may sell guns to each other in most states. Some of them do it at garage sales, some do it at the shooting range (my range has a "for sale" board that anyone can hang an ad on), some do it through Craigslist. Not any more, they stopped that a year or more back. A gun show is just a place where a lot of people interested in guns show up. It's a good place for someone who wants to sell a gun. Although the shows I go to don't allow people who don't pay to get in to sell guns outside the show. An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  24. Hypothetical e-mail from Mr.King's publicist: (Funny, to me, an author has a "publicist") "Sir, Mr. King is not familiar with a Mr. Bill Rataczak, or "TOG", if he did approach Mr. King with a story idea, he does not remember it."

  25. I don't understand your question.... But I will try to clarify. Gun show - This would be like a flea market.... Lets say you owned the land and held a flea market. Bob showed up and wanted to sell velvet Elvis paintings and I showed up to sell firearms. YOU are not a firearms dealer, BOB is not a firearms dealer. DEALERS are required to call in a NICS check. YOU and BOB are not dealers and therefore do not need to have a firearm license. So I would have to call in any firearm sale I made.... Bob would not need to call anyone when he sold a painting. You have no duty to make any phone calls since you just provided the space. What people call a 'loophole' is just Steve trying to sell Bob a firearm. He could make the sale all day everyday, but people call it a 'loophole' if it is done at a gunshow. The ATF is pretty tough on anyone selling guns for profit without being a dealer. What people are calling a loophole is just personal face to face sales. I hope that cleared things up. And to expand on that a bit more... The vast majority of the gun sellers at gun shows are FFL holding dealers. Real gun dealers who are at the show because it brings far more customers past their wares than will walk into their store in a month. Those licensed dealers are required to do all the necessary paperwork on every sale (regardless of if it occurs at their store, the gunshow, the range, anywhere). And most gun sales at gunshows are through licensed dealers. Anyone can rent a table and sell whatever they want - guns, knives, holsters, ammo, parts, tools, books, posters, T-shirts,and on and on (the shows often have rules on content being firearm related, usually a percentage). The ones I go to have very few non-dealers selling guns. Some, but only a few. DaVinci is absolutely correct that the ATF keeps their eyes open and if they suspect a person without a licesnse is selling a significant quantity of guns, they come down like the proverbial ton of bricks. So, I am getting this Gun Show loop hole is a Straw Man? And not a valid more regulation argument? Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
