  2. I'm not telling you how to think, thats impossible. However, if you or rushmc condone/agree with the quotes I posted, that says a lot about you. No, your take on them says everything about you and who gives you your opinions I get it that you dont agree with him That is fine I dont care about that But I call out lies when I see them And you are being fed lies and you are buying into them IF you listened to him, you would not be parroting the racist claim given to you You couldn't cause you would no better He is a lot of things A racist is not even close BTW, did you look into the Majic Negro issue/comment at all? Or are you not brave enough? I did - it was coined by someone else (black themselves) so fair enough I will concede in that case that he can just about get away with it in policy if not intent. However with regards to everything else, Do you not believe he said those other things, or do you think they are appropriate? Do you think you need segregation? Do you think its OK to refer to chinese people like that? I have listened to him when I am in country, and he makes my skin crawl as he is a racist and a bigot. Just to be clear, those exist on both sides of the fence. Extremes are never good. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  3. Pro/Anti argument aside, I don't really see the point unless you are looking to smuggle it through a metal detector? If you want to build your own gun, its not terribly cheap or easy because of the equipment involved, and there are probably better and longer lasting home build options in a metalwork room aren't there? if its just to show it could be done, then fair enough. i'm just struggling with the practical application. Any ideas? Never try to eat more than you can lift
  4. Oh, dear, no. While that may be a popularly held belief, it's not true by a long shot. Einstein had much better hair. Never try to eat more than you can lift

  7. Oh dear. first few results googleing "Rush Limbaugh greatest hits": "Why slavery was good: “I mean, let’s face it, we didn’t have slavery in this country for over 100 years because it was a bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South. I’m not saying we should bring it back; I’m just saying it had its merits. For one thing, the streets were safer after dark.” "We need segregated buses — it was invading space and stuff.” "Limbaugh:...Obama is holding his own against both of them--doing more than his share of the "spade" work. Maybe even gaining ground at the moment. Using not only the spade ladies and gentleman---that when he finishes with the "spade" in the garden of corruption planted by the Clinton's, he turns to the "hoe." And so the spade work and his expertise using a hoe." "In March 2007, Limbaugh dipped into his handbag of racist tropes to mock the presidential campaign of Barack Obama with the song parody “Barack the Magic Negro.” "Hu Jintao–He was speaking and they weren’t translating. They normally translate every couple of words. Hu Jintao was just going ching chong, ching chong cha,” Limbaugh said." You say he's not racist? I think you don't understand what the word means. Or alternatively and more worryingly, you know EXACTLY what it means. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  8. I am saying he does not listen to him I am not defending anything he says or stands for here in this thread But the emotional rants calling him hate filled is proof he does not listen to him Might not agree but the rest is crap I have listened to him off an on for 20 years depending on my job His posts prove he has not listened to him much at all I am not calling him anything I am just calling him out "Hate filled" is an epithet generally applied to racists, of which RL is certainly one. Are you really supporting him here? Be careful, that paints you with a certain brush. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  9. Hmmm - OK, so are they better or worse than reality? Please supply your proof. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  10. Ahhh - but that means you think Ron will look at any evidence that doesn't support his partisan view. The chances of that are not looking too hot right now. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  11. Yep fair point, but I doubt he'll get the nomination, he doesn't suit the needs of the far right enough. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  12. What you mean apart from the fact those who control education in the state are putting their own religious dogma ahead of science? Never try to eat more than you can lift
  13. What will prevent that is the Repubs putting up a credible opposition. So far, not looking good. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  14. Democracy. It doesn't mean what you think it does. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  15. We also deport people who can't spell "potato." Never try to eat more than you can lift
  16. I hear Jesus Christ Himself is planning a Second Coming just to handle the fallout from this. Now that's serious. Naaa He is however, keeping track of those that make posts like yours here Does he know when I'm naughty and know when I'm nice? Never try to eat more than you can lift
  17. You are hilarious. You continue to wilfully ignore the actual situation as opposed to your parrotted NRA talking points. Enjoy being a sheep. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  18. Go on, keep saying it - if you pray really hard it might come true! Never try to eat more than you can lift
  19. And this is exactly why the NRA is so full of shit. Firstly, what applies in Australia does not apply in the US. There was never a constitutional right to own guns, there was always a level of control. The buyback program only targeted a small subset of the weapons that people owned, and the rate of gun crime has gone down if you look at the trends. But then, the NRA were never terribly good at letting facts play any part in their discussions. Maybe you should ACTUALLY look at the statistics rather than going on anecdotal evidence hmmm? http://www.ncpa.org/sub/dpd/index.php?Article_ID=17847 I think you can say that gun confiscation had no impact on violent crime. In fact, it went up. I would hope mass shootings never happen again there, but there is no guarantee. What amazes me is that thousands of shotguns were not exempt, or did the government just scare everyone? They try that in the US too, but most know when to call it BS. You see, most Americans believe their government represents them. In real life, we have no government leaders. We have representatives. They have to be reminded, but that's what they are. Statistics? Please re-read my post, you clearly didn't understand it. Never try to eat more than you can lift

    New Harley!

    I toured around California with my wife on one of the new electra glides that I rented. Amazing bike, so easy for long distance. Thats pretty awesome that a 68 model is still going strong. I love the saddles from back in the day too. (Have to admit, I was pretty glad to give it back, its a BIG bike - 2 up it was over half a tonne. I prefer something a bit smaller and a lot faster, more agile, and italian!) Never try to eat more than you can lift
  25. WHile I don't totally disagree with some of your post, that's pretty funny right there. Never try to eat more than you can lift
