I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.

Sounds like central Florida to me. If you are willing, I would think winters in the Orlando / Tampa area and summers somewhere more North.

1. Given they had just fought a hard war against the government for eight years, I think it is clear what you state is EXACTLY what was intended...in perpetuity...and ratified by the states. 2. At the time: every male over 16 seems to have been about right. Today, everyone over 18 might be more appropriate. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

I was surprised by that answer as well...then I looked at the poll. Makes more sense now. That question was following other questions like, "require criminal record checks". So, in context (and when I looked at the wording closer) the question is most easily read, "Do you want the gun shop to check to see if the person has a criminal record, is adjudicated mentally ill, etc." I'm paraphrasing, but not angling for a particular wording here. But if you look at the poll, it is easily understood that what is being asked is what is already happening. If someone has been adjudicated mentally ill, it should show up in a standard background check for a gun purchase...and the people who took this poll agree with that check. I don't think it says that people want a psychiatrist to certify anyone who wants to buy a firearm as a suitable candidate. There were other interesting results in the poll. For instance, those polled don't think gun restrictions will do any good, but favor them nonetheless. And the percentage of those polled who have a firearm in the house seems awfully low to me...especially given the other answers. Not drawing conclusions...just interesting.

I sold my BB before moving because I thought it was a vehicle. Turns out it would have been household goods and shipped for me. Now, I'm looking for another BB. Have to look in UK, though. Nothing closer. I miss her badly. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

I received an email that gave the information below. That makes it suspect immediately. I can't find anything on the internet, but I'm feeling lazy. Thought I would put it here and see if anyone else found anything. dwj Original email: Why is it that none of the disturbed and evil men, who steal guns, then go and kill movie-goers and children in school, has ever been identified as a conservative NRA member? Ft. Hood~~~ Registered Democrat ~ Muslim Columbine ~~~ Too young to vote; both families were registered Democrats and progressive liberals Virginia Tech ~~~ Wrote hate mail to President Bush and to his staff ~ Registered Democrat Colorado Theater ~~~ Registered Democrat; staff worker on the Obama campaign; Occupy Wall Street participant; progressive liberal Connecticut School Shooter- ~~~ Registered Democrat; hated Christians The common thread is that all of these shooters were progressive, liberal Democrats. Interesting, isn't it? I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

I had a two door. Bought this one and sold the two door. Added the rack and rear bumper to this one and shipped it to Belgium.

Which is more important -- my rights, or your safety?

Maybe. But I also note that they give me a special license plate to mount front and back so everyone will know I'm American.

LOL Exactly. They see that big Jeep with the rack and oversized tires and they just start to scowl in disapproval. Even Nataly joined in here and started bashing it. The envy runs deep around here. The scooter drivers don't seem to like my sportbike much, either. Ah well.... I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

Yeah. I've been wondering why he has auditory hallucinations related to breast. Mine are always visual or tactile. Who sees a nice pair, nudges his buddy and says, "Man, I'd like to listen to those"?

Thanks for all the information. I'm going to take some steps to make my vehicle less offensive to other drivers. Although not unsafe by US standards, it appears to be causing some concern. I'm not sure them turning on their high-beams once I've demonstrated mine are not on is appropriate, but I suspect there might be some Euro dislike of the American vehicle as well. Interesting microcosm of the differences between western civilizations. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

I've heard it said that marriage is legalized prostitution. I don't agree. In a cost / benefit analysis based solely on sex vs money, I think prostitutes would be much preferable to many marriages. I'm quite sure he has some emotional attachment that drives this. Possibly some abnormal psychology as well. She either has some abnormal psychology going on; wants to unite the family for her children, or; is banking on his inability to keep it in his pants...pun intended.

The Best Pro Firearms Statement I've Ever Read
davjohns replied to Gene03's topic in Speakers Corner
I wasn't there and I'm not a historian; but I've read that the wild west wasn't really wild. Think about it. If everyone has a gun, wouldn't you make sure you were in the right before pulling yours? Billy the Kid is infamous for killing 21 men. We have had serial killers that killed in excess of 100...without a firearm. The OK Corral is a famous site of violence. Three guys died...in a town where firearms were outlawed. Today, three guys dead might make the news. Might not. There is a very good argument that an armed society is a polite society.

Enough with the gun talk...lets talk about violence.

Quote Please actually do some research before trotting out the hysteria from the NRA Even as the gun-control debate rises again in the U.S. in the aftermath of the horrific school shooting in Newtown, Conn., the gun-loving Swiss are not about to lay down their arms. Guns are ubiquitous in this neutral nation, with sharpshooting considered a fun and wholesome recreational activity for people of all ages. Even though Switzerland has not been involved in an armed conflict since a standoff between Catholics and Protestants in 1847, the Swiss are very serious not only about their right to own weapons but also to carry them around in public. Because of this general acceptance and even pride in gun ownership, nobody bats an eye at the sight of a civilian riding a bus, bike or motorcycle to the shooting range, with a rifle slung across the shoulder. http://world.time.com/2012/12/20/the-swiss-difference-a-gun-culture-that-works/ Gun politics in Switzerland are unique in Europe. Switzerland does not have a standing army, instead opting for a people's militia for its national defense. The vast majority of men between the ages of 20 and 30 are conscripted into the militia and undergo military training, including weapons training. The personal weapons of the militia are kept at home as part of the military obligations; Switzerland thus has one of the highest militia gun ownership rates in the world.[1] In recent times political opposition has expressed a desire for tighter gun regulations.[2] A referendum in February 2011 rejected stricter gun control.[3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_Switzerland Guns are deeply rooted within Swiss culture - but the gun crime rate is so low that statistics are not even kept. The country has a population of six million, but there are estimated to be at least two million publicly-owned firearms, including about 600,000 automatic rifles and 500,000 pistols. This is in a very large part due to Switzerland's unique system of national defence, developed over the centuries. Instead of a standing, full-time army, the country requires every man to undergo some form of military training for a few days or weeks a year throughout most of their lives. Between the ages of 21 and 32 men serve as frontline troops. They are given an M-57 assault rifle and 24 rounds of ammunition which they are required to keep at home. Once discharged, men serve in the Swiss equivalent of the US National Guard, but still have to train occasionally and are given bolt rifles. Women do not have to own firearms, but are encouraged to. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/1566715.stm That was easy. I picked those two countries because they have high rates of firearms possession; assault weapons at that. They are required to for national defense. And yet, those firearms are not resulting in higher murder rates. I've seen the reports that they don't have many firearms and firearms are strictly monitored. They like to talk about private ownership. They ignore the government owned, but privately stored weapons. Those weapons are clearly available for murder, but don't get used for it. So, my conclusion is that it is not availablility of the weapon, but the intent of the individual. Thus, I agree with the OP that a discussion of the causes of violence would be most productive. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
