Re: TFC Reorganized

If people don't want me to have basic contact information, then we'll just agree that the Texas Firearms Coalition isn't their type of organization. Perhaps my original post was not particularly clear (if so then I am at fault here)... however I originally brought this up because the original form ...

Re: TFC Reorganized

Hmm, That's pitiful. Cmon folks, our liberty is at stake. It costs NOTHING to join. Join now. Please!!! While interested in joining, I have to wonder if the uptake will be difficult just based on the amount/type of membership the site is asking to provide. Not to sound overly paranoid, but we have a...

Re: Wish List - for a new home

While there are plenty of things that I could think up for a "dream home", most are impractical... I suspect I would be happier with a smaller place without all the whiz-bang, so long as it is well thought out. That said having been in various homes over the years in a very different clima...

Re: PC vs. Mac

I could stand up on my soap box all day, but this topic is pretty much summed up as "use the best tool for the job". OSX is extremely simple on the surface... which is one of the reasons my family all use Macs now (I haven't gotten nearly any "my computer isn't working" calls sin...

Re: Are You On Facebook? I'm not...

At the end of the day, what you do, where you do it, and what you share is purely personal choice... one that you are ultimately responsible for in the long run. That said equating what someone posts on this forum vs. Facebook is quite a different argument... sure if someone (say "Big Brother&q...

Re: Are You On Facebook? I'm not...

Having followed the development of such things over the years, Facebook is a very interesting case... On the surface is seemed to explode in popularity by chance (considering the ideal what certainly not new), but underneath I often classify it as the greatest "Social Engineering" experime...

Re: What arms & ammo would you need in an Zombie Attack ?

Any arms you can find... but I suspect like the old bear adage ("I don't have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun you")... the best defense is to be surrounded by people that can't run as fast as you. :lol:

Re: Guns & Ammo article charting the gun sale chaos

I don't see how this chart can be accurate as far as the "Glock, Sig Sauer, and S&W Pistols" demand when everywhere I call is out of stock out with not even a lead time on replenishment of stock. I can't seem to locate the thread at the moment, but there was a post in one of the other...

Re: Piers and Dana Loesch

Typical behavior from Piers... trying to put words in peoples mouth, and talking over people/interrupting when his argument disintegrates, course Crowley didn't exactly help his point either (he quickly backpedaled on any talk of specific weapons). Unfortunately the damage done by this type thing is...

Re: Send Your Children to China to be Good Commies

I think I can understand Anygun's sentiment....that said: I have no specific experience with China, but right now I'm not sure I would consider it. I know of people who have spent time there (much like some of the other posters) and on the other side I have been acquainted with people that "esc...

Re: NRA Life Upgrade - Now Without Sponsor

I signed up on the 15th, and I wasn't actually charged until today. I had contacted an account representative on Monday asking about this, and she told me they were weeks behind in processing and nearly a month out on mailings due to the recent surge of membership.
