What is selfish and cowardly about a person wanting to spare her family and loved ones the plight of having to care for her while she lingers on in pain ?4 points

My understanding is that this is simply a return to pre-insanity sales patterns.4 points

Unless I need a quick box, I just order ammo over the internet. Much less chance of having to deal with idiots.3 points

Got the kid out of bed early this morning and went out in search of snow. None at our house but a half hour drive into the mountains netted us plenty. This was in Blount County. I've heard reports that Mt. LeConte got a record 16 inches last night.3 points

We took in this four year old greyhound and he instantly became family. With the exception of the sexy loaner jacket he is the least amount of trouble of any dog I've ever owned.2 points

Freedom ammunitions is running their $5.00 shipping special again this weekend. I just bought another 1000 rounds of new brass 9mm 115 gr. for around $208.00 shipped and the remanufactured stuff is even cheaper. Why shoot 22lr with prices like this.2 points

And this is how it gets perpetuated. Even if there were 1,000's of boxes of ammo and there was no shortage this idiot would still be telling people the 3 box limit is federal law. I would have gotten his name and contacted his district manager then follow that up with an email about your store experience through the Walmart website. If an employee looks at me wrong that is what I do now, contact every boss between the employee and the district manager. I know every store manager by name as well as their boss and have all their numbers. I will not put up with minimum wage workers acting like I am some idiot. I have even had a worker call me an idiot when THEY could not find the item they told me was in stock over the phone. The same employee told me they were going to hang on to the game I was buying for my son to "keep me from stealing it". Both times I contacted store managers and followed it up on the website. I have overheard the sporting goods supervisor recommend the best pellet rifle to a customer to kill the neighbors dog. He also said 1911s are designed to maim kids and he would never order hollow points because they are designed to "kill kids". He also said he would never sell military ammo and I have caught them hiding 5.56 under the counter several times per his orders. He HATES ARs and tries everything, including lying to customers, to try not to sell them. He told me all a person needs is a bolt action rifle. And yes I contacted his boss over all those comments. I am spending my hard earned money there and I do not have to tolerate idiots.2 points

Got an email from these folks, great deal on used Italian police trade in Beretta 92S @$297.00. Be warned due to the mag release button, 92FS or M9 mags may not work with out the notch. Link to the deal: http://www.topgunsupply.com/beretta-model-92-s-italian-police-imports.html [URL=http://s963.photobucket.com/user/runco0318/media/Beretta92S_zpsfddde660.jpg.html][/URL] I admit I did not know anything about 92S, this is what I found: In order to meet requirements of some law enforcement agencies, Beretta modified the Beretta 92 by adding a slide-mounted combined safety and decocking lever, replacing the frame mounted manual thumb safety. This resulted in the 92S which was adopted by several Italian law enforcement and military units. The later relocation of the magazine release button means these models (92 & 92S) cannot necessarily use later magazines, unless they have notches in both areas.

That's how this stuff gets started: A young woman was preparing a ham dinner. After she cut off the end of the ham, she placed it in a pan for baking. Her friend asked her,"Why did you cut off the end of the ham"? And she replied ,"I really don't know but my mother always did, so I thought you were supposed to." Later when talking to her mother she asked her why she cut off the end of the ham before baking it, and her mother replied, "I really don't know, but that's the way my mom always did it." A few weeks later while visiting her grandmother, the young woman asked, "Grandma, why is it that you cut off the end of a ham before you bake it?" Her grandmother replied, "Well dear, otherwise it would never fit into my baking pan."1 point

I don't know her, and honestly don't care what her final decision turns out to be. I don't even care if this whole thing turns out to be a complete hoax; I am just glad it has shown a spotlight on the issue. We as a society need to have this discussion and discussions like this to move these issues into light. We for far too long have made decisions as a society that belong to only the individual. And yes, that includes things like abortions. Though I am against it unless its a case of incest or rape, I have no business pushing my beliefs on others. And the more I interact with our broken society, the more I come to believe more should of been aborted before they became the menace that they have become.1 point

A coworker has a new FDE Tavor. The trigger pull is pretty bad. When I was working at Barrett, the Israelis brought a Tavor there in hopes of getting it produced at Barrett. We fired it there on the indoor range. The copy they brought in didn't have that bad a trigger. Wonder what the difference is between the Israeli and US produced version.1 point

That guy has issues. I became a fan of the gummy bears when I lived in Germany, but I wouldn't even eat a small package at one sitting. There is some sort of unique greasy substance oozing out of em, I'm sure the sugarless have of sort of nasty substance that causes oily discharge. To eat 5 lbs in one sitting will probably cause you to activate your ebolacare!1 point

Maybe they should come up with something new. Perhaps their own version of a PMR 30. Maybe a Magnum built on the design of the 22 Ruger mark 1,2, 3 series. Maybe they need to hire me as an idea man. BTW remember this thread if they come out with that.1 point

If you get the trigger fixed and decide you like the rifle.... There is a guy based in Murfreesboro TN that makes custom parts for them. His business is called Gear Head Works. I don't own a Tavor, but have seen some of his stuff and it's top notch. Just thought I would mention it.1 point

Even when the quality of life is so poor that the life being protected is begging for the end? I've seen the pain cancer causes and before I suffer that fate, I will greet death like an old friend.1 point

I am of very mixed feelings on this one. As a cancer survivor, I see it from the young lady's point. Although I in no way suffered what she has and will; it was a devastating time in my life. Not just for me, but for all my family. In fact, the stress I caused them was worse than what I endured. That caused me a lot of sleepless night thinking about their feelings and it was just almost too much to see. I also had a friend, one of my doctors in fact, who had a form of malignant brain tumors that finally took his life after a 16/18 month battle. I saw his wife and sons in such terrible misery. Knowing that time was running out, and his pain was increasing rapidly. This fine gentle soul did resist til the end. It was not in his nature to give in or shrink from anything. It was not a gentle passing. Is it right or not in either case? I feel that we were made to bear a lot. I have been there and can attest to it. But...we were also given free will. To make choices for ourselves. Wrong or Right...we make them every day. And we pay the consequences of those decisions. Will the Lord consider this and the willingness to spare family from more hurt? I don't know. I guess I'm trying to say that I don't know what I would do in her position. Blessedly, I didn't have to make that choice. I won't shame or condone for either one. It's not my place.1 point

Exactly. Back in mid 2007 I stayed with my dad for his last several months, he had in his living will not to be hooked up to any machines or tubes or respirator and didn't want to be imprisoned in a hospital or nursing home. He had emphsema and I drove him everywhere to the doctor and just rides in the country, maintained his oxygen machine and bottles and administered his breathing treatments, made him vitimin milk shakes when he couldn't eat anymore and for the last two weeks it was a 24 hour job. My mom who was 79 at the time didn't have the strenght to do all that. When he died he was in his bed in his own room in his own house with all the family there. He may have lived another month or two in some noisey sterile hospital hooked up to tubes and a respirator with strangers around him but I have no regrets keeping him at home and taking care of him, I know he was happier to have it that way. I would however have a huge regret if I were to make him stay in some nursing home forcing him to live in misery for just one or two months, it tore my heart out to loose him but I couldn't force him to live for such a short painfull and miserable time more, that would have been selfish on my part if I did.1 point

was told Pappy was released in Middle Tn. So if you are there start looking. Hopefully we will have it tomorrow maybe or early next week. No telling really in the logic of their release date plans. Sold out of Jeff's Ocean today. Won't know until next week if we will get more soon. Sold a bottle of Blanton's today. The customer was in yesterday and bought a lot of wine and a bottle of Eagle Rare. I offered him up a bottle of 17 year old Eagle Rare. He turned it down and said what he really needed was a Blanton's with the letter T as a stopper. Another employee dug around and said we did not have one with a T. I did some digging around and found one. Had a T. Got ahold of the customer and left a message today that I had his T stopper. I really feel good after I help someone find what they need.1 point
