Re: Please help the White House, SNITCHES needed!

I'm all over this one, here's my response to their call for action at http://www.davidjbelcher.com. I think we should inundate the email with reports of the bad information being given at http://www.healthreform.gov.

Re: Question 'bout Caliber sizes

No problem.

The exhaustive list is beyond my limited knowledge, so I'll defer to the experts.

Re: Question 'bout Caliber sizes

I feel your pain, been there and had to learn them all over again.

First issue is that some calibers are given in diameter of bullet and some in millimeters.

Next issue is that case lengths differ greatly. And finally the case diameters can also be very different.

All that said, here is a short ...

Re: Casting and handloading - moneymoneymoney

I just joined a gun club today here in Amarillo. They harvest about 200lbs of lead every month out of the sand pit and it's available to anyone who wants it.

I work with a guy that just joined that club. If I knew that I would be around for a year, I would join it too. It sounds like a great ...

Re: Would you register your guns?



So out of curiosity, what would TX need to do? Would a law prohibiting gun registration suffice, or would they need to amend the state constitution to prohibit gun registration?

I realize that most of us aren't lawyers, but I'd certainly like to hear others' opinions

Well, I'm thinking ...

Re: Would you register your guns?

However, how exactly is it unconstitutional?
10th Amendment

And?


I'm going to have to add my "and how does it apply?" as well, as I fail to see (happens a lot to me ;-) ) how firearm registration - in and of itself - would violate the 10th, or the 2nd amendments.

Re: Tea Party Updates

Sorry for the late update.

Amarillo had 2 TEA Parties yesterday - at 12:00 and 6:00 PM. According to the local press there were around 800 people in attendance at each one (overlap of some people I suspect).

Good Question. :tiphat:
I don't believe that a registration, in and of itself, would be unconstitutional. However, what does tracking Legal weapons accomplish? At what price? Unfortunately, history has shown that firearm registration is followed ...

Re: Would you register your guns?

You know, I've thought about this question quite a bit since Hurricane Katrina...and I've come to the conclusion that I LOVE the Constitution :patriot: (as written, not interpreted).
