 The Pope and Obama are on the same stage in Yankee Stadium in front of a huge crowd. The Pope leans towards President Obama and said, "Do you know that with one little wave of my hand I can make every person in this crowd go wild with joy? This joy will not be a momentary display, but will go deep into their hearts and they'll forever speak of this day and rejoice!" Obama replied, "I seriously doubt that! With one little wave of your hand?....Show me!" So the Pope backhanded him and knocked him off the stage! AND THE CROWD ROARED & CHEERED WILDLY and there was happiness throughout the land!  

I know that she was vetted, well actually picked down to the bone, by the media enough for 5 presidents, The liberals were THAT scared of her.....yet Obama was not vetted at all by the same group. Instead he was shielded and all skeletons were buried where they remain until this day.

Maybe we need to start making a list of all the price gouging shops and websites like Benton's and Cheaper Then Dirt. Somthing like a "Guns & Ammo Wall of Shame"

If the Federal Government would stick to the only powers granted it by the Constitution, and the rest being states and individual rights, problem(s) solved nationally.   If the Federal SCOTUS would stick to and hear only those issues under the Constitution and Bill of Rights granted them, more problem(s) and disputes solved nationally.   If the Federal Government would go back to the foundations of English Law which we modeled after, human God given rights, the foundational morals that separated U.S. resulting in the 1776 quest for freedom and independence, most other problems would be solved.   We are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic which we stand, one nation under the one living God, which we were founded. If God gives U.S. our rights, he will not ever take them back. If a king, politician, president, congress, etc. gives us our rights, they can be modified and / or taken back at anytime, as is occurring bit by bit from our foundation. Man is inherently hungry for power over other men. That's an indisputable historical fact no one can argue, period!   If our nation was founded and based on Biblical law and principals, English law and independence from a monarchy... Look at where we're currently at and heading toward.   Just common sense, where would the human population be as far as population, morals and disease if the world were mostly Sodomites? Next is the question of what's next, "beastiality"? There's a created plumbing difference for a good reason.   Just my biblical and historical views folks.

I donated some funds via Pay Pal for the Seller to help with his purchase, I think it is awesome what he has done with this auction!

Cool video. I always wondered how it was made.  Now they need to update that video to say "4 million rounds of .22 rimfire ammunition ready to be shipped to a retailer before being hoarded and resold for 3 times is MSRP on GunBroker."

  Most people that work at Comcast are idiots.   I prefer to keep them separate. Usually it will cost less. Want to upgrade your home WiFi to the new standard? Buy the router. Want to upgrade to new DOCSIS standard? Buy a new modem.   I use an Asus RT-N66u router and Motorola SB6141 cable modem. The Asus AC unit came out just a couple months after I bought the N66u. Don't have any AC WiFi cards at the moment anyway.

Put CTD at the top of that list!

Unfortunately FB is the easiest way for me to keep in contact with family & friends, else I'd also have deleted it out of disgust for some of the ultra-assinine liberal spew that is constantly posted on there. And don't get me started on all of the inspirational quote posters people seem to spam constantly .... GGRRRRR

Scrapyard makes an excellent knife, anything that is kin to Jerry Busse is some of the best knives that you can get

  I agree that society has the responsibility to take care of those who cannot care for themselves.  However, you confuse 'society' with 'government'.  I do NOT believe that government has any such responsibility except to veterans.    As Christians, we are taught to help others, and to share our time, talents, and resources.  That is a gift, voluntarily given.  when government provides charity, it is not a gift, and is certainly not voluntary.  It is money that is taken by threat of force, and usually used to buy votes from those who oppose us.  Government-provided 'charity' is just a means for politicians to control us, and is not a tool for good.    Just a 'gun control' is never about helping citizens.  It's about helping those in power to keep and increase their power.

So you don't want to know when a truck is coming in? That makes absolutely no sense. I understand resellers are knowing when it is comIng in but how do they have anymore of an advantage than you? You know everything they know. Quit taking your frustrations out on buisness'. I happen to know of a store that has had 22lr on the shelf almost this entire shortage. It isn't even that overpriced. I don't need it,so I am not going to buy it. How is this? You go find it. How fare is that? I wanted 9mm bad enough that I was going to sell my 9mm's and go all 40 if I could not find 9mm this week. I was more determined than others to find it. If you were determined you would have found a way to be there also. As for the resellers I am sure there were some in line but stop buying their crap and buy it before they do.

They no doubt lied about the dog attack. I have owned dogs since I was 4 years old and I have never had a dog break a leash as they claim happened. What probably did happen is the dog was off the leash, which is against the law, when it attacked the seal. But because they are now the political elite they can lie about anything and everything with impunity.   He is a liar and is doing so for personal gain. Funny how a person can go from a honorable person who served in the military to a POS virtually over night. I can think of a couple of space shuttles I wish he would have been on.   Dolomite

Well...  The SCOTUS is currently hearing oral arguments on DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act).  I have made opinion known on same sex marriage in numerous other threads.  I think the government (federal and state) should get out and stay out of the marriage business.  We should have civil unions for everyone, straight and gay.   My intent was not to create another thread on gay marriage.  We have had plenty of those, and nobody ever convinces each other that their viewpoint is correct.  The reason I posted the thread is because this country is going to $hit, that little fat bastard in NK is on the verge of starting another war, and McCain and Graham keep pushing us to go into Syria, and what is everyone so focused on? ****ing gay marriage.  Is this akin to playing the fiddle while Rome burns?     (edit) - took care of my pejoratives :)

Liked yours and commented. You said exactly what I was thinking!

Gas companies have been doing it for years.....and Getting by with it.

When it comes to guns you get what you pay for.  Best bet is to buy a quality used sub-compact over a cheap new one.

FB was a pit before it went public last May. I consider it  the Detroit of social media so I am not the least bit surprised by any content posted there.

Half of that shit is promoted and egged-on by white folks.

I was sent this by my FIL that is a big supporter of the 2nd like all of us. Very interesting video.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/embed/9RABZq5IoaQ<br /><br /><br />JTM<br />Sent from my sending thing

"She is a winner".   If that's the case how come she wouldn't even complete her elected term as Governor of Alaska?   ;)

I submit that if anyone ever wants to see conservatives in charge of this country again they'll let this one go.  Homos getting married effects no one.   The Repbulican party is teetering on the brink of irrelevance and the last I checked they where the represetatives of conservatives.  If they keep on fighting against people's "pursuit of happiness" then don't be surprised if the Dems take the White House again in 2016, and everything else.

I wonder who is getting this ammo?  I talked to a dude today that orders ammo for my closest WalMart and he said he can't get a .22LR rd and if someone said, "If you don't gt me some .22LR I will have to kill you."  He said his response would be, "THen go ahead and kill me because I can't get any .22LR."     My question is, "Who is getting yesterday's 4 million rounds from CCI?"  I ain't seen 1 single round for sale in my local haunts for several months.     I haven't even pulled a trigger on any of my guns since before Christmas and won't on centerfire.  I will start shooting what I have left of .22 soon.  And when it is gone I just won't shoot until I can walk into a big box store and buy .22 ammo, regardless of how long it takes.  I won't even darken the doors of LGS for a year, whats the point, the only way you can get anything of note out of one is to be on a waiting list and then if it is ammo you are only going to get dribs and drabs for what the next year or two?     By the time I get my shooting replacement hobbies ramped up any money I had or would have had for the firearms industry will have and is being used up.  I ain't sitting around waiting for a couple of years to have fun shooting when you can't, so might as well move on to something else - ain't going to live forever. 

Wow.  Assuming that story is accurate, I hope they charge the hell out of him.

JKGlock17, you just gave me an idea that I think could have worked.  Instead of Shane getting killed off, what if he had left when he first said he was going to - maybe took Andrea with him.  The two of them run into Michonne (who joins up with them after saving their hides in some particularly cool and butt-kicking way) and from there the show takes two, different paths.  Unlike the Andrea/Woodbury and the prison storylines, there would be no need to necessarily 'recombine' them.  Let Rick and his group settle at the prison while Shane and his group stay on the move (wasn't there some military base that Shane wanted to head toward?)  That way, it is sort of the best of both worlds - the conflicts that the settled group face as well as conflicts faced by a migratory group.   I wouldn't do any of this flip/flopping back and forth in the same episode, though.  In fact, I probably wouldn't even flip back and forth that much from one episode to the other.  Instead, I'd do at least three or four episodes focusing on one before switching to the other.  In fact, it might be interesting to do the entire first half of the season focusing on Shane's group and the last half focusing on Rick's group (or vice versa.)  Alternately, they could divide the first half of the season into two parts with one focusing on Shane and the other on Rick then do the same with the second half.  To me, staying with one group for multiple episodes would give better continuity than flip-flopping back and forth within the same episode or doing alternating episodes.   Something like that would allow for different storylines, showing different takes on the outbreak and how to survive it, while also keeping one part of the story from dragging out for too long.  Almost like having two shows in one!   It might be interesting to let things go on like that for a while and then, in the final season, have the two storylines converge.  It could be by that point that Rick and Shane are each the leader of a fairly large and capable group of survivors - and the plot driver for the last season could be a clash between those, two groups (maybe Shane has decided that Lori had his daughter and he wants to take his daughter back from Rick.)  I might even end the show's run with Rick and Shane having killed each other, most of the two groups being wiped out, their bases of operation destroyed and Carl (as a young man) leading the combined survivors of both groups as they once again take to the road.   Heck, for that matter have Tyreese and his group join up with Rick's group at the end of this season and then spend the majority of next season telling Tyreese's back story, right from the beginning of the outbreak or at least beginning after they left the 'bunker' their survivalist neighbor had set up (almost like a chance to 'revisit' the kind of action and drama we saw in the first season with folks who weren't yet 'jaded' to the presence of walkers and the whole survival process.  It would also be a chance to kill off a lot of 'main' characters (the ones originally in Tyreese's group) before they run into Rick and co.

Another idea: use plastic drywall anchors for .22LR snap caps.

It's more than just mocking though Links. He's attempting to use his celebrity to influence policy, in an effort to diminish even more of our quickly vanishing freedoms. Some folks just don't find any humor in that.

I see a business opportunity here.... Perhaps a corporation? I'm ready to invest...

I still think the elephant in the room is components to make 22 ammo to begin with.  There can be only so many brass sheeting suppliers and those guys have capacity issues as well, not to mention power, and etc.  The same similiar components that are shared with pistol rounds and 5.56/223.    Here is an exercise with numbers, there are 317,000,000 people in the United States, of this populous, this data source suggests that 30-34% of the U.S. population owns a gun, so roughly 100,000,000 gun owners.   If 100% of this group wanted just 1,000 rounds of 22 from CCI, it would take CCI  25,000 mfg days to provide this inventory, or 68 years assuming 24/7/365 mfg days in a year.  If CCI just quadruple production instantaneously, it would still take 16 years.  This assumes no one shoots up any inventory along the way causing more demand.   Now of course 317M people includes kids and the elderly.  100M gun owners do not all shoot 22.  In the scale of things, I can see that it will take some time for manufactuerors like CCI to catch up. 

If Alex Jones was to report that the sky was blue, I would feel obligated to go outside and verify for myself before accepting it as truth.

i feel like i am short if i dont have 50,000 plus for each size i load

Heston was a good actor.   My favorite Heston movie was The Big Country.   Thanks for explaining your post.   And I like the new avatar.   Belittling people is rarely ever really funny.

Ok raise your hand if you were hoping that kuala would take her top with him. <raises both hands and one foot>

Scalia once again confirms why he is my favorite justice. He is often considered as one of the reliably "conservative" or "right" leaning justices when reality he is one of the most protective of individual liberties even when it comes at the expense of the interests of the state or what are thought of as "conservative" positions.

You guys are cracking me up. Free enterprise and of we don't like it time to roll to China. Some of you are getting dangerously close to sounding like the enemy. There should be a limit, or they shouldn't do this or sell that......you see things change when we don't get what we want. I'm as frustrated as the next person but whining about store policy is BS. I respect the people that built their stores and whatever policy is fine with me. I may not like it and I may piss and moan when I don't get what I want but it is what it is.

He is a hypocrite that wants to infringe on your constitutional rights.    Ban his dog, then sue the breeder out of existance and make him carry insurance and pass a background check before he gets another one.  The seal was an innocent bystander.  How many more seals have to die?

I'd trade a Mosin for it if I had a few extra.  Totally unsalvageable as an M1917 as it's been permanently altered but it probably is fine shooter if you want to get into 30-06.   If you really want to make the deal I would make sure the receiver is not cracked, a known issue with Eddystones during barrel replacement.    That being said, if it was ME, I wouldn't even touch it, literally. If it was laying on a table at a gunshow or behind the counter at a pawn shop I wouldn't touch it or ask to see it.  But I'm a mil-surp snob purist.  :lol:  

It's not me. I can't handle the truth. :)

I may have to start watch Fox again. That's twice in the last few days I find myself in agreement with the commentary on "The Five."

McCain = [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/838/asshate.jpg/][/URL] Wish I could retract my vote from 2008. Did I mention that I think McCain is an [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/838/asshate.jpg/][/URL] ?

Wow, that's the biggest water hazard I've ever seen!

He's a maverick.

Most ammo that is advertised as armor piercing is not actually armor piercing. M855 is not considered armor piercing even though it has a steel insert. Most ammo people call armor piercing is barrier blind ammunition, not armor piercing. And according to those in charge there is a difference.   Dolomite

This isn't surprising at all. McCain is worthless and should be the poster-child for term limits. He needs to go ahead and take the "R" from in front of his name. I respect his war service greatly but at this point in his life he's no better than Harry Reid, Lindsay Graham or any of the other power-hungry dinosaurs in Washington who need to be put out to pasture.

So…. I wonder how these geniuses decided on the number 7, spin a wheel, throw a dart? And it didn’t stop there. By trying to act like he knew something; he continued to show his ignorance.

The point of the thread is correct, we need to "Stand as One" to win ths fight for our rights. The less ammo we give them the better.
