You're a good egg, and I have serious intellectual disagreements with you that we can argue over until we're hoarse, but I'm over the moon grateful for youre 27 (!) years of service, followed by taking alllll you learned, and adding to American's GDP.

Who determines what are " common sense " gun regulations as opposed to knee jerk reactions from people who don't like one particular type of weapon? I'm not a fan of AR 15 type weapons used as a primary home defense weapon. I'm also as wary of someone firing a 12 gauge shotgun with a rifled slug. If you have never fired such a round or been trained on the recoil a 12 gauge shotgun has your a danger to everyone around you. You already know MD how powerful the recoil can be on a 12 gauge, even if your firing a game load shell. I've also put a lot of 12 gauge rounds down range and dusted more than my fair share of clay pigeons. My dads 12 gauge JC Higgins shotgun he used to hunt deer with was a weapon the deserved all of the respect in the world.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 29, 2024 9:46 amYou do you.WaffleTwineFaceoff wrote: ↑Thu Aug 29, 2024 9:11 amI comprehend fine.

Help the "no cost to others" gun owners (99.99% of us) understand.

But go ahead and deny these externalities. You simply aren’t going to persuade others that they don’t exist and you aren’t going to persuade anyone as to your notion of absolute unfettered rights to own, keep, carry and use any “arms” you wish, nor anyone, anytime, any where, any how they wish.
That’s an extreme view and rejected by a vast majority of your fellow Americans.

Re: media matters
Is the press ‘sanewashing’ Trump?
the idea is that major mainstream news outlets are routinely taking his incoherent, highly abnormal rants—be they on social media or at in-person events—and selectively quoting from them to emphasize lines that, in isolation, might sound coherent or normal, thus giving a misleading impression of the whole for people who didn’t read or watch the entire thing.
Sounds about right from my experience. He's been doing this for a while, but it's really ramped up this go-around.
Republicans should have been demanding his removal as loudly or louder than Biden's.

Nothing new here - Rep. Crenshaw cherry picking military factoids is nothing new - He spouted much of this same stuff incorrectly a few weeks ago on Real Time with Bill Maher. Including a blatant misreading of the Constitution.

Apparently, I'm supposed to not give a sh9t about these troops for reasons he's never explained. And if I point out that they're dying for no tangible goal? I'm the ***hole, apparently.

And how many times do YOU need to be told, what value is it to lambast Trump..this place is already riddled with that already, non stop. I'm not upset at all....it's rather comical that you all think Trump was the only one that lied.
If you want to continue to discuss the 10mile diversion you just inserted about soldiers placed globally, we can move to that topic if you'd like?
Otherwise....maybe you can take 1 post, to acknowledge KH also lied at.....or maybe your recent post was your way of saying that, without actually saying it.

Re: media matters
At some point , Orange Fatso is so bad, that you might have to cut the opposition a little slack so as to beat him hopefully for the last time.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sat Sep 14, 2024 7:35 pma fan wrote: ↑Sat Sep 14, 2024 6:43 pmDude. At some point...one day....you're gonna take one week, and call out Trump's lies, right?

Just so we know you notice them, spend a week on Trump's lies, and the lies you spread by "some guy on the internet".
And I thought you guys liked this tough-guy, military bases all over the world stuff, and lost your minds if anyone (gasp!) pulled out troops out? What happened to that stance?
Make up your mind. Either shut up and deal with the body count, or stop bellyaching when we take these troops the F out of these pointless countries.
(pointless in the sense of: it does us ZERO good to have our sitting ducks, er, I'm mean troops, in these nutjob countries)
Ask Old Salt about this: if I get upset about our troops dying for no reason whatsoever in these counties, he gets mad at mean. Apparently, I'm supposed to not give a sh9t about these troops for reasons he's never explained. And if I point out that they're dying for no tangible goal? I'm the ***hole, apparently. I'm supposed to shut up and let them die without complaining.
And how many times do YOU need to be told, what value is it to lambast Trump..this place is already riddled with that already, non stop. I'm not upset at all....it's rather comical that you all think Trump was the only one that lied.
If you want to continue to discuss the 10mile diversion you just inserted about soldiers placed globally, we can move to that topic if you'd like?
Otherwise....maybe you can take 1 post, to acknowledge KH also lied at.....or maybe your recent post was your way of saying that, without actually saying it.
You cannot, in good conscious, support all the BS he is spouting. I have confidence that you might agree.
The choices we have are the choices - take the lesser of two evils for now and continue to work for a more optimal solution. Fatso is NOT any kind of solution to any of the issues we currently face IMHO
Re: media matters
I didn't say that....I said that's minor league by way of comparison. Which is 100% accurate, my man.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sat Sep 14, 2024 7:35 pm

Not a diversion. It's more of Republican "no matter what the Dems do, we'll throw stones." that guys like you miss when you share this garbage.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sat Sep 14, 2024 7:35 pm If you want to continue to discuss the 10mile diversion you just inserted about soldiers placed globally, we can move to that topic if you'd like?
So which is it? If Biden leaves these countries, he's weak. If the troops he uses to slaughter terrorists (and collateral civilians), that's bad.
I'm sick of party first, country second. You've forgotten that we didn't use to play this game, and supported the opposition when they did the stuff we wanted them to do overseas. This garbage is wrecking our nation, and you know it.
I did. Not my fault you missed it. Called it minor league. Which it is.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sat Sep 14, 2024 7:35 pm
