Re: Being a gun owner in New York


Q: "Big gun, guy?"
A: "No ma'am, big liberty and freedom guy." :mrgreen:

My reply, because the question came completely out of the blue and we near each other for just a couple of seconds was "Yes, m'am." Yours is a much better answer but I had even forgotten that I had a NRA logo visible and ...

Re: Being a gun owner in New York

For me, these stories are less about guns and more about the permissive atmosphere in the Empire State regarding anti-social and criminal behavior. It wold not surprise me to learn that the teenagers targeted the car for harassment BECAUSE of the NRA sticker. And it isn't just there.

I used a small ...

Re: Tired of Cornyn?


Problem is, Cornyn sells well. I don't see Paxton doing anything competitive with this....

I have a two word answer: Eric Cantor

If you looked at Cantor's campaign, he was a shoe-in. But the polling in Texas suggests that, like Cantor, the voters have recognized that Cornyn doesn ...

Re: ICE ambush Alvarado, Texas

And now the quest is whether the rest of the justice system will do anything. All of the BLM rioters were released. It takes DAs and Judges willing to enforce accountability and I have my doubts.

Re: Tired of Cornyn?


I've tried to vote against him in primary every time.

The party itself needs to censure and grow up.

Re: Tired of Cornyn?

The real problem with Cornyn isn't Cornyn. It is complacent Republican voters who go to the polls and check off anyone with an "R" behind their name. Those same voters don't have any idea what the "R" candidates did the last time they were elected and so in the primary elections, they just vote for ...

Re: No place but New York- it could even get worse their in the future

The underpinnings of New York City's financial problems are one of the many reasons for the rise of a Socialist mayor.

Re: Philadelphia Permit Holder Arrested



How bad is Pittsburg? My darned daughter told me today her and my grand daughter were planning to go there for some kind of book writers convention next year. I am really worried.


Among the three biggest cities (Philly, Harrisburg, Pittsburgh), I would say Pittsburgh is the best. But it is ...

Re: Philadelphia Permit Holder Arrested

This situation was stacked against the permit holder before he pulled the trigger. Larry Krasner is a heavily Soros supported DA and it would be unreasonable to expect him to come down on the side of self-defense. That two juveniles with extensive criminal records were walking around with visible ...

Re: State Fair (and elsewhere!) Fix SB1065 Out of Committee

I hold no hope that, no matter what the Texas Legislature and Governor do, Dallas is going to allow legal firearms at the State Fair. I use the same logic for them that I use for Sprouts Farmers Market, Whole Foods and the other store chains that post 30.06 signs. They would rather go out of ...
