    Music lovers!

    I'm a huge 311 fan, first and foremost. Incubus is a close second. I love classic rock, but most of the stuff I like doesn't get played on the radio. I have all kinds of stuff on my iPod. I can always rock out to some old school Metallica, Motley Crue, and Poison. I like older country. Many artists from the 50s through present with Charlie Daniels Band, Bocephus, Marty Stuart, Johnny Cash, Confederate Railroad, Clint Black, among others. I saw Junior Brown on Friday night at the Frist Center for the second time, and he sounds GREAT live! He is one of my favorites.
  2. What a nice looking dog. I loves me some canines.
  3. Old Mossberg .22 Bolt that was my great grandmother's.
  4. You dodged the question once again What are you talking about? That article mentions plenty about the effect of illegals on health care costs: There is more, but what that translates into is people who are actually paying the bills are now paying more because of the leeches who suck the medical services without paying. I don't know why you keep denying this point other than to keep the thread alive with useless arguments about something that everyone recognizes but you. I'll counter your arguement. How are illegals NOT costing health care providers, and in turn insurance paying consumers more money? I want "documented proof" as you say. I think we all agree that the solutions provided by lawmakers won't work. They have never worked. The only way to stop the problem is to fine and eventually imprison the employers who employ illegals, fine and eventually imprison landlords who rent to illegals, and to fine and eventually imprison those who help illegals who continue to break federal law.
  5. You still didn't answer the question. Is or was someone in your family in this country illegally? True Americans kill Americans driving drunk every day. But why should that number be allowed to rise because of people who aren't even legal citizens of this country? It is just one of the many symptoms and problems of illegal immigration. Trashy houses are all over the place, and a you mentioned a lot of them are white trash types, but rarely do you have groups cramming several families into one house and destroying nearby property values. Would you want to live in a neighborhood where there are 20 people in each house while the whole place looks like trash? My guess is probably not. As far as your insurance argument goes, here's a document about why illegals are increasing health costs for Americans: http://www.jpands.org/vol10no1/cosman.pdf - It comes from The Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons. If you need more studies and articles to read up on, check the references section of that document. They are listed there, but I'm not going to search them out for you Then again do you really need documented proof? Do you need a car to run over your foot to know it's going to hurt? Do you need to see a paper or study to know that wrecks during rush hour cause traffic jams? If so, I guess you lack the ability to understand cause and effect like the rest of us are able to understand.
  6. Rabbi, are you or some member of your family an illegal immigrant? I'm just trying to figure out why you are so pro illegal immigration. I guess we do have things to enjoy about it though. Drunk Mexicans drinking, driving, and killing Americans. Trashy looking houses/properties with 8 cars out front and 30 people living inside. Increased insurance costs, among a few of the great benefits of having illegal aliens pouring into our area
  7. Nice gun!
  8. Mustangs are dreamy.
  9. Well that's sweet. I'll get a couple t shirts and a Flexfit hat whenever this happens.
  10. Will you try to twist their arm so they use Flexfit hats?
  11. He sounds like the type to go in for weekly prostate exams :eek:
  12. It's been discussed a bit, but no one has posted in the thread in over a month. I'd like a shirt. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=776
  13. Hi, I'm in Mt. Juliet. Welcome to TGO!
  14. You might have thought of this already, but I bet if you give Barrett a call, they would help you with some of that information. Plus, when you bring it up a meeting, you will say you got your info from the horse's mouth.
  15. Some folks wanna ban cars Some wanna get rid of Fender guitars Why don't you do your thing And we'll do our thing, too! This is the coalition To ban coalitions......
  16. The reason for this is because the permit is tied to the person, just like the license. The registration is tied to the car, and it's not uncommon to have several people share a car in a family or business.
  17. Well that's a load of crap What it sounds like is that someone who is in the place of "power" in his little gun club wanted to create some kind of rule to enforce so he would feel important. Next up, no Winchester shotguns at your range, only Remington shotguns because his brother's dad's friend swears by them!
  18. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=winchester,+tn&ie=UTF8&ll=35.710838,-86.11084&spn=3.969063,7.525635&z=7&iwloc=addr&om=1
  19. Doh! I just saw this. No he doesn't that I know of. I think work keeps him busy enough.
  20. Well thanks to you guys once again. Mike, he didn't even tell me he was going up there, haha. I'm glad you are happy with it. Mars, yes, I am still be cautious. I'm slowly returning to normal activity, but I'm definitely going to take it easy for a good while. I think I will be up for some handgun shooting soon, but no rifles yet.
  21. Well in case anyone cares, I'm doing very well. It has been three weeks since the surgery. No more pain in my leg, the incision is healing very well, and most of the risidual pain from surgery is gone. I am still very cautious though... I'll probably never lift anything with my back again and if something is super heavy, I just won't bother. One thing I miss is riding four wheelers, but I hope in another year I'll be able to ride again. I almost bought one about a month before all this started, and I'm glad I didn't or else it would be sitting there almost brand new I have been driving quite a bit and it gets easier every day. The parts that suck are turning my body to look around for lane changes etc, and getting in and out of the car. Recovery has been slow, but I guess it's all relative since the biggest procedure I have ever had done before all this started was wisdom teeth removal If it keeps going this well I should be back 100% in about 2 months. I feel about 60% right now. Thanks for all the well wishes!
  22. [Mr. Garrison] Can we get rid of all the Mexicans? [/Mr. Garrison]
  23. Well the thing about that article is that it is comparing this year to last year. Last year, prices were jacked too. Compare the prices to 2 years ago when all this crap started.
