  1. I think we had it "covered." Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  2. Please read it again. I said "majority." not "all." Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  3. Guns are taxed at the point of sale; not unlike and in some States at the same rate as cars. >>>>>$2,000/ yr for a single handgun/ pistol; $4,000/yr for a long gun. That would be a prohibitive excessive tax in which only the rich could own guns. And, that would prevent the poor to middle-class from their constitutional right to keep and bear arms. .

  4. Now, you're just attacking the player and not the ball. I am older, but not old. That gives me some real-life experience for almost six years in your country during a very tumultuous time. Good. We agree on something. Perhaps you should learn a little more about your country before telling us about ours. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saarbr%C3%BCcken For God's sake; it's only the size of Washington and Oregon State. How can you be so sure? As the article states, "Dozens of demonstrators..." I can tell you that most of those were either part of the Baader-Meinhof Gang/Red Army Faction or those who were instigated by them - both of whom shot at us on a regular basis using illegal weapons even back when guns were only for those who belonged to Rod & Gun Clubs. Those "Dozens" were not respective of the way the majority of German people thought of us. You will not be able to denigrate my service to the German people during that time. A majority of Germans were thankful we were there and embraced us as their own. I had German friends with whom I went on many the volksmarch, enjoyed Oktoberfest and dined in their houses. I lost friends there and I will not apologize for mine or that of my fellow U.S. servicemen who stood guard on West German soil, so that West Germany remained on this side of the iron curtain. One of my proudest moments was seeing the wall come down. On that note: This has drifted about 200 degrees off azimuth from "Toddler shoots..." topic of the thread. We can discuss this in another thread sometime. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  5. *Culturally* spoken, you just confirmed ALL about what most aliens think about the US. ..... I was stating a fact. You and Jakee don't seem to understand that when we go to your part of the world; you expect us to abide by your cultural mores - but when you come over here; you don't want to abide by ours; much less understand them and more importantly - feel like you can "tell" us how we should live. I've been to your country many times - each time defending your country against communism. You damn sure didn't complain about my having a weapon in your country then; but you want to complain about me having one in my own country now - which again; is my right. And, culturally speaking; I really don't give a damn about what any alien's viewpoint on the US is. Just as you don't give a damn about any of my viewpoints about your country. Well, except that I love the Saarbrucken region. You might agree with that... but I'm sure that you have some reason not to. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  6. Being well-versed in gun laws; I can think of no State off-hand where that is NOT a felony. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  7. You have the right to 'tell' others damn near anything you want to. They just don't have to listen. You may "damn near tell others anything you want" in bloody old England, but culturally, I would encourage you not to do that in some areas of the larger cities or rural areas here in the US. Now, you have the right to free speech... be careful how, where and when you use it over here. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  8. YEAH!!!! Psswah. Of course! Nope, that can't be right. I have a pic of you from [11 oops, make that 12 years ago now] in my office and you distinctly have tennis shoes; not toes. Course, I could be wrong.... I didn't think they could fly either. Happy new year. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  9. I have read this entire thread and am in total disbelief of its content. You sir, have the right to believe in whatever you choose; but you wish to mandate how others choose to live, their behaviors & beliefs. You do not have the right to do that no matter how much you disagree with their beliefs or behaviors. Now, you don't have to agree disagree or even understand... but, you do not have the right to tell others how they should live; nor infringe on our constitutional rights. You do have the right to an opinion, but you could do a much better job of presenting it other than suggesting that all toddlers should kill their gun-toting parents and the slew of verbal slop that followed. There are many on this board with whom I disagree and it can be labeled as mostly liberal vs. conservative "issues." In most cases, I can say those debates have been intriguing - enough so; that I would welcome the opportunity to have dinner with any one of them and a lively debate. Your opinion was set on the cornerstone of vicious diatribe and built in the same way. No dinner for you. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  10. Turtles have toes?!??!?! Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  11. There is nothing more manic in Oklahoma than Friday night high school football. Dare one send their kid to school on Friday without a "team spirit" shirt. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    PB&J protocol

    Man, you guys are REALLY bored. Anyone who reached the age of five knows that it's super chunky PB on the bottom slice with grape jelly on top of the PB and you gently lay the last slice on top. That way the PB doesn't get stuck to the roof of your mouth. You guys should be debating - if the toilet paper roll lead should pull from the top or the bottom. Now, that's important shit.

  14. I once met a guy in Kansas... http://agcamera.com/category/blog/ Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  15. Personally, I think each house has the right to own as many or as little guns as they choose. I also believe they had better have some weapons training and a solid storage area. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  16. However, cars are a privilege; whereas, gun ownership is a right. Big difference. Hence, so many States going to constitutional carry. Agreed. With rights comes responsibility. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    Idiot Wounds

    I broke a toe by stubbing it on the wall going into the bathroom in the middle of the night. Yes, the wall. there's that little protrusion for the door jamb, half asleep, dark, just wanna get it over pee and blam... little toe right into the jamb. You know that... its gonna hurt thought that runs thru your mind right before the jaw clenching pain of stupidity hits followed by the growl of "Motherfucker" while your teeth and fists are clenched. Then pee, then tend foot, then take 3 year old leftover painkillers, then have to tape your toes in the morning and try to go to work walking as if nothings wrong except for those annoying people who have to ask what's wrong 30 times after you've told them nothing and are just trying to move away from them kinda idiocy... that work for ya?
  20. Bring everything but the horses and dogs to the DZ and we'll grill him up. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  21. I akin part of this to the now; jump, split, next weekend syndrome. Rather, than the hang around at night, have a beer, bonfire, sleep at the DZ and actually get to know jumpers. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

  24. Cell companies generally charge you for the month in advance. If you got the anytime minutes; check to see if they include them as rollover minutes. If not and you crossed over a billing period, they wanted a re-load to the minimum $25 for 250 anytime minutes. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
