If only there was something we could do...

I agree that discussing anything with him is futile but we should be able to talk shit about him. Ridicule and scorn is the only way to deal with scumbags.

Well sure, but quit fuckin' quoting them.

I recently bought a used dirt bike from a guy in the Reno area in one of those hastily puked out walled in developments near the highway with closely stacked big homes that aren't quite nice enough to be called mcmansions, but wish they were.
$4k used dirt bike off craigslist, nice enough guy talking to him. I had 4k cash in my pocket like I always do as I buy and sell a lot of vehicles and motos for fun.
Halfway through our interactions I notice he stands awkwardly, I'm thinking maybe back or hip injury, then I realized he has his hand rested atop a pistol that has the butt of the handle sticking up from inside his pants sn the side in an obvious display.

I give it a good hard look, then look him in the eye with a big smile and an obvious chuckle.
Wtf man.

If you think a CL stranger is going to rob you, over 4k or invade your home, maybe don't invite me to your home to meet so you can shoot me if you feel a bit threatened.

Just be glad you're not Black!

What the overliving fuck are you talking about? I still ski 3-4 days a season and drive 3 hours each way to do that.. But carry on with your bullshit narratives..

As for the delete, it had the wrong recipient quoted.

But we're talking about chickenshit ammosexuals and the problems they cause not properly storing their guns here. Try to keep up..

i never understood until now why people on here who agree with you politically still put you on ignore.

You must be confusing me with someone who gives a shit what other people decide to view. I do think it's hilarious to see people posting the exact same shit I posted like nobody else already said it. You get to see it multiple times! You're welcome!

If y'all want to stop bitching about who's more of an internet twatwaffle, the NYT posted a long but interesting piece on the NRA's transition from sporting organization to gun lobby behemoth:

Wow - that is an eye opener

Actual journalism…imagine had that article from a more baldly partisan outlet: howling about divisive fearmongering clickbait

[Cue the #bothsides distraction arguments anyway]

Same source..

The Largest Source of Stolen Guns? Parked Cars.

And yes, I will keep stumping on this same guns in cars rant until its highly illegal for anyone but an actual cop or professional security guard to roll with a loaded handgun in their car. It should be just as illegal for me to have a gun in my car is it is for the punk who stole yours from your car..

Just to clarify... are you saying it should be illegal to leave an unattended gun in a car, or just for anyone to have a gun in their car? Like you can't leave home with a gun except on foot?

That can't be what you're saying right?

A certain long winded someone has been bemoaning the state of society for like the last year in this thread while promoting gun ownership and carry by all.

Seemingly oblivious to the fact you pretty much can't interact with people in public anymore without having at least a glimmer of the thought "this person might have a gun."

Spouse and I have both had interactions with road rage drivers this year where we had conversations with each other after that fact that went "remember, we have kids and people have guns and it's important to not engage with these people".


That poor guy at the boat ramp got shot over what? Boat ramp etiquette because some nut job felt he needed to pack a pistol to go recreate on a river and couldn't control his emotions.

Sure seems to me that we have an armed fearful society, not an armed polite society.

Shit is fucked.

That incident is the nra wet dream. A patriot defending his freedom at the boat ramp. Congrats, ammosexuals, you guys are killing it.

I'm saying nobody needs a loaded gun in public unless they are doing job where carrying a gun is required and are thus "well regulated" while carrying that gun. People get pissed off, it's human nature.. So everyone shouldn't all be rambling around with guns. Nobody should unless they're "well regulated" and body cams need to be part of that oversight. .

We need to go back to the way handguns (and military stile weapons) were regulated in the 50s.

So let's hear the short version of your proposed legislation for this, because it still isn't clear to me what you mean by no guns in cars. Your answer above just obfuscated that for me.

Serious question. Simple question. Why do you 2A doods feel you have no responsibility for public safety with your Right to Bear Arms?

So you need a body cam just to take a trip to the range?

How does the loaded vs unloaded nature of a gun matter to it getting stolen? If anything, a loaded gun is able to be used to prevent the theft of said gun while an unloaded one isn't.

Can you explain your ideas more than just things that make life more difficult for gun owners? how would they help specifically?

Start by saying serious question. Finish with textboock strawman argument that literally no one is making, directed at no one in particular.

Have fun screaming at clouds.

You don’t like it when other people follow your modus operandi, do you?

If your gun is in your car and accusable to use while driving yes, same rules cops follow when carrying including annual psych exams. ."well regulated" if it's in a car safe out of reach to transport store, range, etc. no.

people still pissed at that last season of Game of Thrones.

Shits fucked!

Pissed at George R R Martin taking 20 years to finish the latest damn book.

Please link me to posts accepting any responsibility with the right to carry.

[nickwm21]

There are plenty of examples of common sense firearm transportation laws from other countries that have strong hunting and gun hobby cultures…

Anyone with an opinion.

I had two relatives who served in the Will Regulated Militia. One in 1777 and another in 1812. Research showed that they had to take on the responsibility of training in the safe use and proficiency with their muskets. So it's been on my radar and has me wondering. Why is the responsibility part of 2A no longer considered necessary?
