Re: Portable Generators

www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com. Ordered 2/23, shipped 3/15. Website shows that if you order today it’s 7 weeks or so, but so did mine originally.

Re: Portable Generators

I'm thinking the 22kw Generac at around $5000 is not a bad deal. Right now they have a deal for two extra years of warranty for a total of 7. Installation is shown to be $2000. Does anyone know if they ever have an installation special? I just bit the bullet. Generac 22kw delivered to my home with ...

Re: Corona Virus (2019-nCoV) from China: Its going to be bad.

I’m betting far far far more people have contracted this than thought, and the mortality rate is far lower than calculated.

Re: Reported: Active shooter in Odessa, TX

3,000 babies MURDERED every day in our country....and people fight for the right to do it. That’s legal, and THIS is the lead story.

We live in a messed up world.

Re: Ever looked down a gun barrel held in an angry hand?

Yes. Two times. One time I "disarmed" the attacker. The other time, the situation de-escalated.

Both were over 40 years ago. I hope it NEVER happens again.

Re: Morman Church takes stand against guns in church

Holy cow. I cannot imagine going to church unarmed. We all know that churches have been, and mostly likely will, be targeted places. Putting this policy "out there" like this could make those parishioners ducks-in-a-barrel. The day my church says "no guns" is the day I quit atten...

Re: Noncompliance Kneecaps New Zealand's Gun Control Scheme

I was just reading this story. Kudos to those brave patriots that hold onto their only form of defense against a tyrannical government.

Ask Mr. Swallow-well how it boosted his presidential bid.

Re: Irresponsible dog owner

Unfortunately I had to shoot a pit at the gate to my ranch. Pulled off the highway, got out to open the gate, and the dog flew across to confront me. (It had done this before). This time he got too close, so I popped him twice with my .45. The dog rolled over and died where the grass meets the aspha...

Re: Will Obama be arrested for illegal spying on Trump campaign?

My only input is this: I'm tired of the "let us worry about the next election", and letting crooks, thieves, and liars get off because we don't want to "cause a ruckus". That's the whole dam problem with our country, we don't want accountability in the name of getting along. Enou...

Re: Speaker Bonnen's betrayal of Texas gun-owners

Face it: Texas is turning blue. When many other states around the country are turning to or entertaining constitutional carry, we’ve ground to a halt.

Pop this thread up two years from now. I got $5 that says we’ll be going backwards by then.

Lord I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think so.
