Anyone with a competitive bone in their body should love trap shooting. It's such a kick in the pants.
Undoubtedly!
Actually eyeing a Browning BT99 right now, just for trap. A trap-specific gun really helps for that.
Those perfect runs are hard to come by without the right gun. Or at least that's what I tell my wife when she asks me why I need another shotgun...
Kramerica - help us understand what is so special about the Benelli?

Sorry to interrupt, but this black Detroit police officer succumbed to his injuries today after being shot in May for a domestic disturbance call.

Don't misstate my views, please.

You and I agree on some of this.
No its not, don't misstate my views. You claimed Latasha Shaw would be marching with BLM. Maybe she would if she had not been bludgeoned to death in the middle of a busy street. Her life did not matter to the people who witnessed her murder. Explain to me MD what Black Lives Matter means? Maybe you can take a stab at it? I mistakenly have taken the words at face value. Your a stickler for grammar and proper word structure, tell me what I am missing. Is there a grammatical secret decoder ring here that I don't know about? :?
You're exhausting me, cradle.

I've already responded thoroughly.
I disagree that people didn't care about her, but you and I do agree, as do others, that the "Don't Snitch" problem is terrible. Whether distrust of police or more likely the intimidation, it prevents true justice for her and others.

My 'claim' was speculative, but based on who she is reported to have been I think we can say, with very high confidence, that she would have been marching with BLM.

That movement is about social justice, specifically police abuse and systemic racism.

The issues are complicated and not everyone who agrees with that core mission is necessarily a peaceful and upstanding citizen, but the movement and the peaceful protests for that cause have the support now of more than 75% of Americans.

She would have been among them.
I wish she was MD. I wish she was marching shoulder to shoulder with them. If nothing else happens out of this rotten stinking mess the police have to realize they have to take a different attitude towards their job. That will not be easy, because the criminals will never change their attitude towards the cops. If the cops can change then no snitch has to change. That sounds to me like a win/win for everybody. I did not mean to exhaust you. When I post first thing in the morning after my 2 cups of joe I am ready to take on anybody ;)

+1 I have not dusted any clay pigeons in many years. It is one hell of a lot of fun. I was always very low tech. My brother had his Ithaca deerslayer. That is not a trap shotgun by any stretch but we made do with it. That was all we had.

Here is a massively effeminate nutcase Democrat (why are so many Democrat males so effeminate?!! And frankly insane?) in a tutu yelling at some NYC cops that he's better than they are because of his education. A Democratic yenta echoes his arrogant dimwittedness.

https://twitter.com/stillgray/status/12 ... 19234?s=20

How are you people so proud of your team? Are you like this? Do you tell people you are good because you went to Harvard? How can you not simply hate these people?

These Democrats are the absolute pits of this country. Not having a job and paying people while unemployed is not a good recipe for the lunatics of the Left; they are revealing themselves every day.
I don't believe that that is a tutu, it looks like some sort of wrap skirt.

I betcha the cops had a lot of jokes about that guy after they went of duty.

I guess that murder on Monday finally forced the mayor's hand and the Seattle CHOP zone was finally cleared out.

Protesters With Plastic Pitchforks Just Showed Up to Billionaires’ Mansions in the Hamptons

Including protesting at one of the homes of former Democratic Presidential candidate (snicker) Michael Bloomberg.

We have a perfect storm at the intersection of Coronavirus and record economic inequality. Systemic deliberate economic depression of people, massive unemployment, billion dollar bailouts, meager working class stimulus, hundreds of millions funneled to the elite's interest groups with no oversight and more. While they are NOT all the same, it will be interesting to see if either party reacts as this might have a lot more legs than previous iterations of economic protests such as Occupy Wall Street.

And they found out where she lived, they were heading that way. Got a bit too close for comfort.

Like I have been saying for a few years.....ruling class and peasants. Similar to a lot of banana republics. That’s where we are headed.

Feel like there’s a lot more hot chicks and “diamonds in the rough” in the peasant class, which if so call me a peasant!
Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold
Love my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah

The oldest surviving ship at Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack is undergoing a name change. The Coast Guard Cutter, Roger B. Taney is to be renamed. Taney was the author of the Dred Scott decision. The CGC is now located in the Baltimore Harbor and is owned by the State of Maryland. Multiple Taney statues (all of them) were removed from state property a few years ago.

They should rename it Old Salt in honor of our favorite Navy guy on this forum. I would have suggested naming it the wahoo murph but he has disappeared from this forum. Does anybody know what happened to murph? Love him or hate him he would always tell you his honest opinion.

Mike thought he could buy woke acceptance, but as we keep warning anyone with a functioning ear, the left always eats its own because there is no regulator on socialist demands. Have fun comrades. 😂
