The problem with discussion is you need opposing sides to sit down willing to negotiate with an open mind. Do you really believe the left wants to do that? Most people on the right do not. They have heard the same rhetoric from them for eons...we don't need them and shouldn't have them. What makes you believe this isn't the lefts end goal still? I personally don't want to end up like jolly old England where it's almost criminal to own a butter knife and Australia where with few exceptions if you want to own much more than a musket (exaggerated) you are out of luck. Negotiating their rights away for nothing in return had made these once proud people a laughing stock in my mind. -
Well I ain't gettin' any younger so there will be one less conservative oldtimer to put up with. As far as the flu thing I was thinking asteroid impact or world wide blackout due to an EMP caused by a Coronal Mass Ejection. Same thing only different I suppose.

That is absolutely true. Just legally owning a weapon doesn't make you a savior. I firmly believe some people shouldn't be allowed within a country mile of a firearm. Have they done anything wrong? No. Did the harm or injure themselves or others? No....well not yet anyway. But here is the conundrum .....Is denying 2nd Amendment rights to millions the answer? That argument makes no sense to me at all. So what is your solution? Do you have a plan that might work? If you do please share it as I'm sure all of us would like to know. Using kids as a veiled excuse to protest guns isn't the answer either...at least to me. Do they have the right to exercise 1st Amendment rights? Of course they do...people have died for that right. In closing I just have to ask why kids people weren't shooting up schools back in the 60's, 70's or 80's? I remember a time when kids actually brought guns to school and they say out in the truck all day. I have my own ideas why but I don't want to bore people with things like parenting, religion, respect and common decency among other things. It's easier to medicate them and give them a cell phone or laptop instead so people won't be bothered and interrupt their "me" time. This country someday will be compared in history to the fall of Rome and with the leftist behavior and agenda that permeates all 27 genders here or whatever the current count is now I'm sure we are already free falling. God help us all or for the none religious folks....best of luck.

Shovel Kalashnikov (or Dolomite appreciation thread)
Grand Torino replied to GlockSpock's topic in Long Guns
That is stinkin' awesome!! but it weighs a ton but who cares? -
I've been faced with terrible situations several times in my life. I think courage gets confused at times with acting crazy. The reason I say that is after acting in those situations I've had more than one person call me crazy and who knows...maybe they were right. After some reflection I might tend to agree with them. One thing for certain....I'm not standing by and doing nothing. When faced with tough situations the first thing that goes through my head is something my father told me over 50 years ago. "Do something...even if it's wrong". Is this the wisest thing to do? Perhaps not. But in my fathers defense I sometimes thought he was a little crazy as well.

https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/20-year-old-sues-dicks-walmart-over-new-gun-policies An Oregon man filed suits Monday claiming Dick's Sporting Goods and Walmart discriminated against the 20-year-old when they refused to sell him a rifle. Dick's and Walmart restricted gun sales to adults 21 and older in the wake of the Florida high school massacre. The 19-year-old accused in the school slaying bought the AR-15 used in the attack legally. Oregon law allows residents to buy shotguns or rifles starting at age 18. Tyler Watson's lawsuits filed against the retailers in two separate counties claim he faced age discrimination from Dick's and Walmart, The Oregonian/OregonLive reported . The lawsuit is believed to be the first filed over the new gun policies enacted on Feb. 28th. Read more.

Assault Rifles and the 2nd Amendment
Grand Torino replied to DaveTN's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
In my mind the gubberment "I'm from the government and am here to help" has no stinking business ruling on AR15's period. Will they do something or at least try? Probably....but what happens if a company makes something else that works better the following year and then the next year and so on. AR's are not the problem...never have been. How come kids and and other nutjobs weren't shooting up schools and such in the 70's and 80's? The argument by liberals isn't AR15's...it's guns in general. If their stinking toe jam smelling foot gets in the door then they will go to semi-automatic handguns and all the rest. Say goodbye to Glocks with large mags and others. We will end up like England or Australia. This attack on an AR is only the first step...not the last. People will end up with an old Mosin ,M1 or Lee-Enfield. I don't have anything again those rifles but is that the only choice anyone wants? This has to be fought and never surrendered.....this is serious...to me anyway.
