  • FATJACK: Be careful what you have your wife carrying. Our wonderful federal gov. has made it a crime to use wasp spray for personal defense. The label clearly states, ” It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with it’s labeling.” So clearly, wasp spray is for deterring pests….wait a minute… pests…hmmm. I guess these thugs qualify! Nevermind!

  • Please understand – My comments are my view of the world as I see it. Not as I wish it. I, like another person on this blog, forgive her for what she said. (I’m a Christian, and a lifelong follower of Jesus Christ). I’m not an idiot however, and therefore, while I forgive her, I will never FORGET what she said.

  • I really don’t think the BPP and their ilk truly understand the enormous disadvantage they would have, should a true “race war” actually come to pass. There are around 300 million guns floating around in this country. The majority of them are NOT handguns. The majority of them are in the hands of VERY well regulated (practiced) deer/elk/moose/caribou/duck/squirrel/rabbit/ hunters. These people are very skilled in the art of camouflage, survival, (camping anyone?) fishing, (ok, we’re on probably equal footing on that one). My point is that the 13% minority would fare BADLY against the white, redneck majority who are quite accustomed to killing very large animals. It’s not too much of a stretch to apply skills learned over a lifetime of hunting to a “race war” survival situation. Actually, it would last more than a couple of weeks in my opinion. I know a LOT of guys that would actually LOVE for this to come to pass. (I’m not one of them). I’m just stating facts. People who run in MY circle of friends are EXTREMELY well armed and EXTREMELY well equipped to handle a “civil uprising” situation. Let’s not push it.

    As for me, apology not accepted. You spoke what was in your heart and got busted.

  • The current statistical estimate of annual PREVENTED crimes is approximately 2 million. That’s 2 million instances of crime thwarted simply because of the presence of a gun. The bad guy decided it wasn’t worth it and walked away. I’ve been carrying for 15 years, and I’ve had to present my handgun 4 times in that 15 years. In every case, the would-be perpetrator turned his ass around and walked away quickly. I never have reported these encounters to police, and I would imagine there are many, many more out there who have had the same experience. Now, there are some of you self-defense purists out there who would fault me for “brandishing” without firing. To them I would say that I don’t follow the purist attitude that if you have to clear leather, someone has to die. I’m extremely happy with the outcomes of my 4 incidents. It seems extremely plausible to me that the 2 million crimes that didn’t happen per year is accurate.

  • RANGERP is absolutely right. I put over 40 deer in the freezer in the last 15 years, and I’ve NEVER mistaken one for anything else. As a hunter, you MUST identify your target 100% prior to pulling the trigger. You MUST take an ethical shot in the proper “kill zone” on the animal to prevent undue suffering and pain to the animal. If you’re one of those so-called hunters out there, and you know who you are, that are only interested in the trophy aspect of your target, and must, at any cost bag that animal, then you are the problem. I’ve known people who take shots at moving brush, sounds in the woods, anything moving period. I refuse to hunt with, near, or around people like this. I‘ve missed opportunities many times because I couldn’t properly identify a target and let them walk. In my state, even shooting the wrong classification of deer can get you into hot water. Mistake a button buck for a doe? Oh, well, you’re screwed. Shoot a 4 point (fork horn) in a 3 point rule area? Oh well, you’re screwed. There’s a lot more to hunting than simply shooting at an animal. It takes intelligence and discrimination to properly hunt. Idiots!!!

  • Trust God in every other area of your life except for your finances and you expect him to bless you? Read the following:

    Malachi 3:8-11 “Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, In what way have we robbed You? In tithes and offerings.
    (9) You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation.
    (10) Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this, Says the LORD of hosts, If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.
    (11) And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field, Says the LORD of hosts;”

  • Church Tithing Has Hit a Record Low in America

    In reply to deeberj.

    By not tithing, you are refusing to be obedient to God. You are literally saying to God, “I have faith and trust You in every other area of my life except for my finances. I think I’ll handle this area myself.” How do you expect God to bless you financially, if you are defying him? This is why you struggle.

  • Ok, let’s try this again… (I left out “and to the republic” the first time)

    Yo hago juramento a la bandera de los Estados Unidos de America, y a la republica a quien representa. Una nacion, bajo Dios, indivisible, con libertad y justicia para todos.

  • When I was in Spanish class back in the eighties, we were required to learn the US pledge of allegiance in Spanish. Very different, and still meets the intent.

    Yo hago juramento a la bandera de los Estados Unidos de America, y a la quien representa. Una nacion, bajo Dios, indivisible, con libertad y justicia para todos.

  • JROOK: Your analogy was based on the movie,“The American President” and here’s the direct quote:

    LEWIS
    They don’t have a choice! Bob
    Rumson’s the only one doing the
    talking. People want leadership.
    And in the absence of genuine
    leadership, they will listen to
    anyone who steps up to the
    microphone. They want leadership,
    Mr. President. They’re so thirsty
    for it, they’ll crawl through the
    desert toward a mirage, and when
    they discover there’s no water,
    they’ll drink the sand.

    SHEPHERD
    (evenly)
    Lewis, we’ve had Presidents who were
    beloved, who couldn’t find a coherent
    sentence with two hands and a
    flashlight. People don’t drink the
    sand, ’cause they’re thirsty, Lewis.
    They drink it ’cause they don’t know
    the difference.
