Re: Just wrote my Congressman and Senators over IRS

That is well written and on point.

However, here's my biggest concern about impeachment:

Shotgun Joe is next in line.

He's going to be literally right down the road from me today at the local high school. I am working from home and thinking about walking down to the corner on my lunch and holding up a sign that says something like, "Honk if you love AR-15s". Have your local kinkos print up a big poster-s...

Re: What the anti gun crowd is excited about today

Also, a gun is an instrument of killing. Cars are not (typically). Really? Let see, there are some 200-300 Million firearms in the U.S., yet according to your site, in 2010 (for a full year) there were 9595 firearms deaths. Assuming that each was with a different gun (worst case), that means that l...

Re: On Sheep, Wolves and Sheepdogs

This has always been one of my favorite articles, and this is the heart of it for me: This business of being a sheep or a sheepdog is not a yes-no dichotomy. It is not an all-or-nothing, either-or choice. It is a matter of degrees, a continuum. On one end is an abject, head-in-the-sand-sheep and on ...

I must confess. I would LOVE it if the guns turned out to be traced back to Fast and Furious.

Stealing an M16?

I'm pretty sure that's an automatic felony!

Re: 16 Republicans vote to advance Gun Control bill, all B+

I just spent the last 15 min filling out all their contact forms telling each one of them that even though I don't live in their state, their primary opponents are all getting checks from me next election cycle.

Re: Federal background check "compromise"

I'm tired of everyone telling me I have to compromise. Every compromise has resulted in giving up more with nothing gained for my side. No more. Ever. :mad5 In a 'compromise', both sides get something, both lose something. I see NOTHING the 2A community gains from this. And nothing that couldn't be...

Re: RE: What would you do if you saw his gun?

If I saw someone I invited into my house exposing, I would be more inclined to strike up a conversation than tell him to disarm or check him for a CHL. Hey I see you're carrying, what is it? How long have you been carrying? How well does it shoot? Though obviously not foolproof, how they react to ca...
