What's The Best IWB Tuckable Holster & Do They Work?
leroy replied to a topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
Do any "round men" use the "supertuck"? If so, how's it workin out for ya? leroy -
Looks to me like the hamas children and Iran have called the fire down. The pesky jews will make short work of hamas and probably Iran as well. I think we are about to see the "gates of hell unleashed" (...to borrow the hamas propaganda....) on the hamas children everywhere; now that the pesky jews have a decent anti missile system, improved smart weaponry, and the assurance that the Nobamaites wont help. I predict that we may well hear the rumble of a few earth boring nukes in the neighborhood of Iran in a few days. I say: "...God bless the pesky jews (...He will anyway...)...". I think this will look pretty much like the Osirak Reactor Raid in the early eighties and the Syrian raid (...alKibar; i think....). The world (...including the great Nobama and his pimps...) will take turns villifying the jews in the UN for being warmongers; but it wont make any difference. The guilty will be dead, incenerated, or just blowed up. The pesky jews will have cleaned up another problem without the help of the rest of the world. They will be villified for it; but the world will owe them a great debt of gratitude. The jews dont need our help; it's just a "nice to have". I say: "....Sickem IDF and IDAF!! Kill 'em till they leave ya alone (...again...)....". leroy

Remember this. It makes no difference what the negotiated benefits are if there aint a business to work at and a job to do. Another case of killin the goose who laid the golden egg and puttin more folks on the dole. Welcome to nobama's workers paradise. leroy

With all of the talk about civil unrest and secession...
leroy replied to Links2k's topic in General Chat
Lester makes a great point there: [quote]....Vermont may have one of the oldest and biggest secession movements-- Because the USA is too redneck and ain't socialist enough to suit Vermont's sensibilities. Going back to that "don't let the screen door hit you" regionalist vibe which might likely accompany actual secessions.....[/quote] I think the "secession" thing is, as Lester so eloquently put it: "...A regionalist vibe...."; and its vibin now. In my mind, the next step of the "regionalist vibe" would like like the state(s) (...individually or in groups....) first going to court over whatever "rule" or federal law they dont like; then "nullifying" any law or rule they thought wuz wrong for their particular state. Think of the "right to work" vs "closed shop" thing. I expect that the logical end of this would be a loose confederation of states; each bound by like mindedness on issues dear to that particular people group --- like personal responsibility, workin for a livin, keepin some of your money ya make, spending it as ya see fit, etc, ect. -- on and on. The federal government would be reduced to collecting taxes (...which they would have to send back to the indiviidual states in "block grants"...) and "providing for the common defense". Just like the Founding Fathers envisioned. A truly novel idea. Think blue states that like everything the nobamanites are doin and red states that like folks to have some control over their lives and finances. It's the ole"....birds of a feather flock together thing...". This time there may not be enough birdseed to go around in the blue states. A good contrast would be what ya see in Kalafornia vs what ya see in Texas. It's easy to see that the states are already doin this. Look at industrial growth and state government fiscal responsibility in the red states vs the blue states. I predict that the "secession' movement is actually the "states rights" movement. The federal government would loose power over individual states (....think federal "rules" here; along with "mandates", uniform program rules (...welfare, medicare, etc...), and enviornmental regs (...think coal and water use permits...) and the state governments would determine their own policies based on the "shared values"of that particular state. I think some "stealth secession" has been goin on for sometime now. That's why ya have growth in the states where somewhat fiscally responsible adults are runnin the show, and net losses of jobs in the places like kalefornia. That is also why this current crop of nobamaites are pushin back in places like wisconsin and south carolina (...think boeing here...) and talkin about instituting "card check" so they can intimidate non-nuion leaning workers in "right to work" states. Its payback and "reprisal" against those who dont see it the nobama "chicago way". It's interestin to me that we now have 33 republican administrations in the states. Food for thought. leroy -
I'm a round man that weighs in the neighborhood of 300 lbs; always wuz. In the "old days" i used to work lots of 12 hour days climbing on red iron, wading in fly ash (...very hard on everything...), water, mud, and coal dust; all walkin and climbing a mile or two a day. I always wore redwings (....the 8 to 12 inch lineman type laceups or the moc toe laceups; depending on the mood...). The redwings were the only boots that i could stand up in all day and that would actually last over a couple of years in that type of use. I always put a pair of spenco insoles in the boots; and my feet were always fine. They were the only boots that would keep their shape and not break down in the arches from the heavy load i put on them. We worked lots of rough jobs in which these boots were worn every day, six (...sometimes seven...) days a week for months. Most any other boot would wear out and get way out of shape pretty quickly. The redwings always held up. When the redwings needed re-soling; the cost used to be in the neighborhood of $35. I've never had a pair of White's packers; but i suspect they are the next step up from the redwings. The problem is that the price will more than double with them. I've tried the "good" Danners. They did not fit my feet as well as the redwings. Redwings are an excellent boot. I think that they are the best of the "ready made" boots. They are well worth the money. Hope this helps a bit. leroy

With all of the talk about civil unrest and secession...
leroy replied to Links2k's topic in General Chat
6.8 makes several good points in his post above (...#72..) here. My take on all this is that im a relatively old coot (...66...) and ive never seen as much divisiveness (...other than the vietnam thing...) and grousing about the sorryness of government than ive been hearing and seeing for the last four years. This current crop of idiots has managed to drive the wedge deeper and drag the issues further down the road quicker with their high handed tactics than ive ever seen before. They have re-opened wounds between the government, the people, and the individual states that were inflicted via the bayonet in the post civil war period. They shouldn't have done that. When these issues are re-visited; i predict that there will not be enough carpetbaggers and thugs to enforce much of what they dream of doing. Further, they dont have an army of occupation to enforce this stuff. I predict (...and sincerely hope and pray...) they will loose bad in court. Otherwise, there could be some trouble. When you have otherwise solid citizens talking succession and have third partys like the Tea Party(s) in various states talkin about the things they are talkin about; with bad words dricted toward both political parties and the government; those in those parties and the political operatives need to be concerned. RE: Violence directed toward those in government. The nobama regieme and its operatives dont need to worry about violent harm comming from the "Rs" and the various freedom loving groups. For the most part, those groups are law abiding citizens who work for a living, and are genuinely concerned about the direction the country is being taken in. The politicos need to be worried about their far left socialist bastard brothers and commie philistine harlot sisters who dont think that they are doin enough to bring the beautiful utopian socialist paradise to the good ole usa. Remember, Jared Loughner aint a right wing nut; he is a left wing nut. leroy -
Puppy Shot And Killed For Wandering Into Neighbor's Yard

David said a great thing here: [quote]....Dogs are probably the one living example of God's unconditional love for us.....[/quote] I firmly believe God created the dog as a concrete, terrestrial example of what He is like. He created the cat as a concrete, terrestrial example of what we humans are like. I well remember when killin a dog for any reason short of attacking you, your family members, or livestock wuz up there with killin a family member. leroy -
Israeli strike on moving target, populated area
leroy replied to Sam1's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
The "Brotherhood" better leave the pesky jews alone. They are much safer sittin around and sayin bad things about them; rather than doin things about them. Every time they spar a bit; they get a bloody nose. There is no one about who can restrain the pesky jews sould they start a housecleaning in the middle east (...which im ok with, by the way...). Its like TMF posted about the "criteria being met". The islamopigs need to operate "below the threshold criteria"; its safest that way for these islamo children to look important to their chained constituencies. I wonder who the next Hamas chief is that is dumb enough to play a bit of "Freedom Fighter and Oppressor" with the IDF? My bet is he wont last long either. Im ok, even enthusiastic about this; as long as we dont help with boots or dollars.. after all, the Heebs dont need any help anyway. leroy -

leroy replied to MacGyver's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I cant stand Stupetta or Kerry either. The military has been screwed over just like the citizenry. Kerry or any of these other sons (....and daughters...) of satan would be no better nor no worse. Havin said all that; think of the most offensive, disgusting character ya can (....outside of nobama, that is....).... I like Lewis Farrakahn or Jeremiah Wright. How about that jackass that heads up CAIR or the great loud mouthed harpy Debbie Wasserman Schultz?. Any other ideas??? wonderin leroy -

I can assure you that there was cheating in pennsylvania, ohio, and florida. The trick is to look for a couple of percentage points difference, max. The pennsylvania state court ruling on the voter id law plus the usual thuggery in philadelphia tilted pennsylvania. Ohio wuz probably the usual union rat thing. Florida. You know the answer to that. Interesting read on state voting requirements here: http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/State_by_State_Voter_ID_Laws. Take a look at the precentages here: http://elections.nytimes.com/2012/results/president leroy

Shane: The ORSA facility has a world class 1000 yard range which hosts shooting matches all the time. The place is manicured and is kept in great shape all the time. They host high power and black powder long range matches. It is, indeed, a world class range. It has a 300 yard (...i think...) covered benchrest range with manicured grounds. A small bore shooting rangethat ooks great. An indoor pistol range. A trap range and a stupendously active trap shooting population. A great action pistol range which is used every week; along with a very active SAS shooting club. They also have a plinking range. That's a bunch of stuff. It is worth twice the $120/year. leroy

Pretty much like Garfua and OhShoot said. Shook the house pretty good. Ya could also hear the rumble. I thought it was some sort of ground wave (....turns out it was...) from a big explosion. Went outside to look for structural damage and to look for any signs of an explosion. The rumble was pretty loud. leroy

Why didn't 94 million Americans vote?
leroy replied to greenego's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I love this great observation from Lester: [quote]....Just wild guessing, maybe the 3 million missing R's, the dog don't like the dog food? Either didn't like the R candidates or didn't expect that the R candidates had enough odds of improving anything, to bother wasting time and gas money going to vote?....[/quote] I think it's dead on. The "R" brand tasted bad to some of us old dogs. Keep up the good work!! leroy -

Why didn't 94 million Americans vote?
leroy replied to greenego's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Greg's question is a fair one. Lots of people used to (....and may still ....) believe in their heart of hearts that ".... there aint a nickle's difference between either political party...". Thinking that, they are turned off by elections. They think that either way they will get bushwhacked and mistreated, and some son of satan will win and continue to do what they all have done before them, without much real change happening. I think that used to be true. The truth, to me at least, is that while lots of their assumption is true; there are bunches of other even more troubling factors that have entered politics in the last few years that may have escaped their casual view of the political scene. They manifest themselves as not only the setting of fiscal policies; but the meddling in, and the outright attempts of the elimination long held notions about the Bill of Rights, the imposition of moral values (....or the lack thereof; depending on your view....) and a "scorched earth" policy against political enemies and those who dont see things the way the winners see them ALA the re-emergence of the old Radical Republican Reconstruction policies after the Civil War. This "scorched earth" policy touches both individual citizens and businesses. Something ive never seen before. In the old days, there were simply "winners and loosers". The "winners" were rewarded with "favors" and prospered; and the "loosers" just kept on doing what they needed to do, without being mistreated or criminalized. Now, the "loosers" are persecuted by the alphabet arms of government (...NLRB, EPA, etc...). Some of them are also being pushed around and intimidated by others (...IRS, FBI, etc....). Ala, "Chicago Style Politics". We are morphing into a "Bananna Republic" winner take all government. That is very troubling. Up until about the seventies; the big difference between the parties was the issue of fiscal issues. The demorats believed in government meddling in everything and "big spending." The republicans were fat cat capitalists who believed General Bullmose business practices and fiscal policies were best. The sixties happened and the political parties started meddlin in social issues. "Entitlements" were establshed and government moved into the arena of long held personal beliefs in the area of religion (...or freedom from it...), moral issues (....abortion, the illusion of equal rights, gay rights....), and political freedom issues (....protected speech vs "hate speech", right to self-protection via the Second Amendment, ownership of firearms, ect....). I believe that lots of non-voters are either oblivious to the assault on their rights or simply dont believe that it is happening at all. I cant understand either one of these notions; but that is just me. Folks here on TGO tend to be political junkies and prognositcators. We are pretty sensitive (...prehaps ultra sensitive...) to what is going on politically around us. There is evidently a whole world of Rip Van Winkles out there who are asleep; or, worse, yet, a bunch of children who simply dont care. I simply dont know which it is. All that being said, the current Nabama administration has upped the ante on the war; and have managed to push this "intrusion of rights" and "entitlements" a long way down the road in a short amount of time. They have pushed hard enough to realize some pretty nasty setbacks in the area of assaults on the Bill of Rights. They will get their way on some things (...givin money away, etc....). I believe they will loose on the assault on the Bill of Rights and States Rights. I also believe at the end of this next four years, lots more people will be poorer, out of work, out of health insurance, etc; and more of them will wake up and vote. The jury is still out on how they will vote; but my guess is that they wont like the policies they voted for (...either by direct vote, or by not voting at all....). Time will tell. leroy -
Wanted to share this great quip from Sam Adams

Jay: Final question(s): 1. You have stated that:"...we're way past the point our founding fathers were.....". I simply dont agree, so we need to agree to disagree on this one. 2. What should be done by the citizenry to correct this problem? This aint a trick or gotcha questiton. I'm vitally and genuinely interested in this one; as im shure that many others are here too. leroy -
