I really enjoy the stories about the law enforcement folks that aren't going to enforce this nonsense.

The saddest thing about all this nonsense and the new laws already passed in New York is the politicians have the public convinced that had these laws been in effect two months ago the school shooting would not have happened. Hell he stole the firearms and ammo from his mother. He didnt buy them so there was nor would there have ever been a background check on him. Crazy is crazy no matter how you slice it. The biggest problem in Washington is the elected no longer work for us, they work for themselves and fill their own pockets. You guys think if a "regular joe" ran for office he would get elected? What we need is someone who isnt completely disconnected from the working class. Just my .02

I am sure alot of us agree. THe problem is that what average Joe can afford to get elected? It's costs millions to get elected. If you don't sell out to someone(s) with money you have no shot. Not sure who said it but I have heard it over the years, nobody spends millions of dollars to get elected to a job that pays 100K without the intention of stealing that money back or something along those lines. Just my .02 cents

It would take an individual with real backbone.
Does not care about $ anymore that it takes to care for himself & his family.
He would have to stand up daily, maybe hourly to tell all trying to bribe or blackmail him or her to take the $ and do a political favor of some sort......Fuck You & stick it where the sun does not shine.
That individual would have a constant bounty on their head to be dead, killed.

Its off Topic.....I have a friend that used to drag race every weekend.
I grew up next to him.
Mike would take his 10 second 355 sbc Tunnel rammed 5.57 geared Pontiac Rear Monza around the block for a joyride at least once a week after 1am.
9,000 RPM screamer. Burnout, Launch it hard at 5K, look out my bedroom window with my brother in awe, front wheels off the ground again, drunk 20 year old car guys everywhere cheering Mike on..............
So 2001 comes, mike has a 7-second Camaro doorslammer.
Scott Shaferoff 540ci BBC.
Calls me over the change the gears in his Strange 9 inch rear end.
Shoot the shit working.
Like always.
2007 comes.......bama running for president.
He wins of course.
Mike quits drag racing.
He buys a M50. I see it & shake my head why????
He now owns 3 M50's.
With the communist bastard wishing to disarm all.....
I think the M50's should stay with Michael.
What do You think ?
Oh yeah..........they are real badass guns.....

I traded my AK 74 in for mine just the other day. It's a MK1 design and came with all the paperwork, case, 5 in 1 tool, and holster. It was made on 2/88. My brother has a two-tone one, and it's a black on stainless, plus it's a 2/86 production date which means low number as .44 production began on 1/86. I shoot Speer 270gr and it's a blast to shoot.

My late Bud B. that helped 90 % to make who I am today was an Italian- Sicilian.
Wicked smart.
Not unlike Grumpy.
Its important to talk in Riddles at times.
If your around 40 years old.
You can do it too.
All Conservatives here will understand 100 %.

Its hard to argue with a photogragh.
But it does not always tell the entire story.
Was the photo of Ronnie and his wife taken before the assasination
Attempt?
While laying in a US Navy hospital bed, maybe he was visted by an elite.
The mafia would be a friend at that point hanging on for his life.
Have to remember, Ronnie Reagan started off as an actor in his career.
Not a bad ass US Marine that can survive a trip to hell and come back to live to talk about it and smile yet.

....misleading, "lawful ownership" only means they filled
out the paperwork and had a background check (I hope)...
....doesn't take much to cross that thin line as to "unlawful",
if your trying to say "all our customers" are lawful...

Actually, he was a private in the Army Reserve before he was an actor. About the time he started acting, he got his officer's commission. He served in the Army Cavalry Reserves until 1942 when he was ordered to active duty. He had bad eyes, so he was classified for limited duty. After transfer to the Army Air Force, he produced over 400 training films for the military. Everyone has a different role in the military and all roles are important. At least Reagan served his country when he was young, and didn't have to be drafted to do it. Our current POS...er POTUS can't say that.

Thanks for the correction Texadentist.
I was 12 or 13 when Ronnie was shot. So I recall all that commotion.
Funny You mention Ronald Reagen was in the US Army Reserves. Because this morning before I left for work, I found a DVD Movie I bought Christmas 2012 in Peoria, IL for the family to watch but never have yet, "Ronald Reagan in This is The Army".
Have to make it point to watch this week.
