  1. Yeah, they know. Ron, you and your friends need to be more careful about believing those sources. That story is an outright lie. It is not even a little truthful. She is not even Muslim. And her name was not Jarrett in 1977. Her maiden name was Bowman. Really, you seriously need to inform yourself better. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/make-america-more-islamic-quote/ Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  2. Yeah.....I had a lot of parental guidance on pornography. All the best people do. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  3. Let's not make this into more than it actually is. It was not a tweet offering a sale on Memorial day. It was a post on his authorized FB page made by the people who run the store. There is no way to know if the POTUS approved it. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

  5. I don't follow him on Twitter any more. That was a hoax, right? Checked out by Snopes and no, not a hoax..... https://www.snopes.com/news/2018/05/28/maga-memorial-day-sale/ Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  6. I don't really care if you are a convicted felon or not. And I'm not interested in the tawdry details of your attempt to defend yourself from the accusation that you waved your firearm at a motorist in a road rage incident. Did you have to serve the time you were sentenced to, or did you manage to lawyer your way out of it? I am beginning to think that perhaps you are one of those raving gun nuts that people are warned about. Even if you are a very intelligent and highly educated one. The main point is that the rules made by mediocre people apply to all. Even obviously superior people like you. Because you have a temper and I would not trust you with a gun when you are angry. But you are not alone. There are lots of people with tempers. That is why nearly every country doesn't put up with average mediocre citizens, or even extraordinary ones walking around with killing machines in their pocket. And, I am not accusing you of anything. I'm just quoting the record of your conviction of a gun crime. As far as your threat of legal action against me goes, just like you say, anytime you're ready.

  7. My research indicates your experience with gun laws and police stops is a little deeper than you like to talk about. https://law.justia.com/cases/ohio/twelfth-district-court-of-appeals/2005/2005-ohio-6274.html Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  8. A friend of mine recently bought a new Ford heavy work van. He tows a large trailer with tools and materials often and the van is always loaded with lots of carpentry tools. I assumed it would have the big block V10. No way. It has V6 and plenty of power. Engine technology has changed a lot. Still, I agree that a Camaro with a 4 banger seems wrong.

  9. You are intimately familiar with firearms, and the laws governing them in the USA. You have no familiarity with having one of your children fall victim to random gun violence. Or with the advantages countries with reasonable gun laws enjoy. Like not having motorists waving firearms at them in road rage incidents.

  11. God™ is a multi-billion dollar enterprise. It's top executives deserve the finest accommodations to help them in their constant quest for more filthy lucre. America is the world's greediest nation, and American Christian leaders are the nation's greediest leaders. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  12. Or go with what most of the major manufacturers have been saying for years. Which pretty much happens to be the opposite of what you just posted. Well....that part is true.
  13. Don't be all mediocre about it. Drive it like you stole it. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  14. Meh - FARs are for the little people. But.....without them all the great pilots would be in danger from the fundamentally mediocre ones. The whole world is poisoned with mediocrity. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  15. It's pretty clear that Giuliani is doing his best to take the place of Roy Cohn in Trump's life. Trump has been missing his viscous bulldog mouthpiece and looking for a replacement for decades. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  16. Nah..., you accept many limitations on your behavior. You just have a pet cause centered around your love of and lust for firearms. I do agree with your Socrates quote though. It confirms my long held belief. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  17. Winsor, are you referring to American casualties or to American caused causalities? My research shows about 655,000 total battle deaths suffered by US forces over the years. I can find no reasonably reliable number for deaths inflicted by US forces. I can find claims of 20 to 30 million foreigners killed. But the counting methods look pretty vague. And I'm sure that indirect deaths are being counted here as well. But who's keeping score anyway? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  18. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. Christianity, and Ron make the most extraordinary claims and offer no proof whatsoever. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  19. The US worked long and hard to get China and Russia to more or less go along with tightening sanctions and ratcheting up the pressure on Kim. And undoing that work is the game he is playing. He is setting Trump up to look like someone who can not be trusted. (easy enough) If and when a summit comes, Kim will make a demand that the US present a plan for it's own disarmament. He will not follow the agreed upon script and Trump probably knows that. Kim's goal is acceptance as a nuclear power. He won't get that in this round, but he will make progress in getting some nations to go along. There are nations that are mostly beyond the reach of US pressure and they will begin to do more and more business with the RNK. This is all because America went with a bad businessman instead of a proven skilled Machiavellian woman. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  20. Chuck, you are probably the only person I've seen recommending a Stiletto for a swoop learning canopy in many years. I love my Stiletto. It's an old guy canopy and I'm an old guy. Apparently you have a son who teaches canopy piloting professionally. Would he agree with you?
  21. It's called realizing you've just screwed up big time and cutting your losses while you still can. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  22. But who wants to take a chance on a used camera with a non replaceable battery?
  23. NPR has tried and been unable to confirm the allegations made by Trump that the DoJ had a mole in the Trump campaign. Please name one of these "several new outlets". This is most likely another attempt at distraction and will fail like all the other Trump nothingburger lies. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  24. Did you know Berkeley Breathed is active on his FB page and releasing new Bloom County work regularly? https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=berkeley%20breathed%27s%20bloom%20county Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
