• Army Training Material on ‘Religious Extremism’ Lists Evangelical Christians, Catholics and Some Jews Alongside KKK, Al-Qaeda and Hamas

  April 6, 2013 at 9:22pm

  In reply to Keatonc333.

  SENDTHEMETEORS – Sean Hannity *SARCASTICALLY* said “….the tea party movement, the people, all these Tim McVeigh wannabes here, as they say.” Notice the last few words “, as they say.” Listen to the clip and listen close… it’s there. Moreover, any true conservative who is familiar with Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, et al, and were listening to them during this period of time know exactly what they were responding to when they made jokes like these. The left was (and still is) trying to paint the Tea Party as extremist when they are very responsible, decent, upstanding citizens. You are either dishonest or lazy – either way, you discredit yourself.

• Concealed Carry Holder Teaches Armed Robber Why It’s a Bad Idea to Pull a Gun on a Dad

  DontDriveSlow: “stop drinking the .45 kool-aid. LE ‘one-shot stop’ studies show 9 40 and 45 all do about the same thing, with the 40 the best for autos, 45 next and 9 next but all are very close and with 9 you can buy and carry more of it for less $ and recoil. why do you all think the rest of the planet prefers 9? 45 is fine but it costs more and can carry less.”

  Agreed, for the most part. Having served in the military and being a hobbyist, I have shot just about every type of weapon and calibur of ammunition known to man and had this same conversation 100s, if not 1,000s, of times with knowledgable people. These experts, of many different types and opinions (police officers, special forces, instructors, salesmen, etc.), bring different considerations to the table and answering this question just gets harder ~ every possible answer is conditional and must be qualified.

  Here’s the only thing I would add to this conversation: if they limit capacity, more people are just going to buy larger calibur weapons for obvious reasons. That’s it! If I cannot carry more than 10 rounds, then I am just going to mitigate that limitating factor and go for more “bang for my buck!” Even I would probably start carrying a .40 or .45 instead of a 9mm subcompact.

  One more thought, no matter what your preferences: get your butts to the range and practice, practice “perfect practice,” keep learning and take lessons for the rest of your life, for yourself or with the ones you love,

• Obama’s Inaugural Invocation Pick Breaks With 200+ Years of American Tradition

  civilwarcometh: “The next time i have to look at him i hope it’s with a tree and rope.”

  SendTheMeteors: “civilwarcometh, what Tea Party chapter do you represent?”

  Such stupid comments. Grow up… both of you!

• This Graphic Anti-Bath Salts PSA Might Make You Want to Take Drugs Just To Forget it

  In reply to blanco5.

  BLANCO5: “eh-hemmm, I heard that same one but just the opposite, wink!”

  In my experience, Marines are *MUCH* more likely to prattle on about what the Marine Corps taught them ~ quite often with a branch related insult tied to the end of the comment. We’re all brothers though, so it’s all good! Give as good as you get!! =P

• Calif. Officials Defend Naming School After ‘Revolutionary’ Murderer: ‘Sort of a Hero to Us’

  ” .. .they are progressive indoctrination centers. That goes double for taxpayer funded colleges and universities .. why do you think Obama wants EVERYONE to attend .. and end up slaves to college loans by the feds also.”

  That’s a BINGO!

• In Retaliation For Human Rights Bill, Russia Threatens To Cut Off All US Adoptions

  In reply to love the kids.

  LTK: Anyway, we have gun rights in America so it’s probably much safer for them to stay right where they are.”

  Are you kidding?! Do you not remember Beslan? The Beslan school attack still has highest number of innocents killed and probably will for a very, very long time. BTW, I have actually visited Russian orphanages and they are incredibly tough and sad places for children. The children I saw were starving for love and attention. It was fun spending time with them, but also heart extremely breaking.

• George Will Says Opposition to Gay Marriage Is ‘Dying’ — Find Out Why

  In reply to tonythefisher.

  M25: “The Blaze is where bigotry, screaming in it’s death throes, meets for their last meal.”

  Here’s another view: the Blaze appears to be a place where people are still freely exchanging ideas rather than just preaching one side and a one-size fits all view, as those closer to the fringes tend to do. I’m interested in seeing a spectrum of ideas and not constantly shouting down or shaming the opposition for simply expressing their deeply held beliefs. I see the entire spectrum here at the Blaze and I ask only that people be honest about their beliefs and political leanings. Yes, many here at the Blaze are passionate social-conservatives, with a few who are more socially-progressive and liberal, but that doesn’t necessarily make them Republicans or demand that they be constantly at odds with Democrats. What did this Blaze post start with? Oh yeah, an atheist big-”L” Libertarian and a social-conservative small-”l” libertarian talking about same-sex marriage; then, the Blaze readers exchanging their comments, their thoughts and feelings on the topic at hand. Good for them! What purpose does your post serve?

• Do Gays Have a Constitutional Right to Marry? Here’s Why Activists Fear Losing Their Supreme Court Battle

  DR60: “I might also argue for the ‘full faith and credit’ clause of Article Four which requires states to recognize the laws of other states.”

  Well, that’s just great, we should try this one out; I’ll be sure to bring along my side arm the next time I fly into in NYC (locked, no ammo, and declared in my luggage) and see what happens! I should be fine because my state allows me to travel with my side arm… right? Right?! o.O

• Lindsey Graham: Romney Digging the GOP Deeper Into a ‘Hole’

  November 19, 2012 at 2:06pm

  In reply to soybomb315_II.

  Kupo: “Actually, that’s pretty much exactly what Glenn did when he started singing Romney’s praises all the time. Romney = establishment.”

  And the anti-establishment alternative w/ an actual chance to win was who… exactly? There wasn’t one and Romney was the next *best* choice. I am a small “l” libertarian and like much of what Ron Paul and Gary Johnson were bringing to the table, but they had almost no chance of winning. Even if RP had won the Republican nomination he probably wouldn’t have won… and I could have told you clear back in 2008 that it wouldn’t happen in 2012. It won’t happen in 2016 either without a more realistic Libertarian outlook on, and approach to, foreign policy.

• Newt Gingrich Slams Romney ‘Gift’ Comments

  November 18, 2012 at 9:41pm

  “‘This would be like Wal-Mart having a bad week and going, ‘The customers have really been unruly.’ I mean, the job of a political leader in part is to understand the people.”

  Understand them and then… give them stuff. So says the populist, Newt Gingrich.
