16 months & Shane's in a severe rejection-mode. We don't know yet to what extent - could be just steroids, or another total heart transplant .... we're still not sure & time will tell ..... Broken hearts here for such a huge successs - I canot be more sad .....

Nope, Mark13. It's a waste of time, resources & money - besides a sop to those who think it would be so.

No disagreement, wingman, & more's the pity. We needn't lose our rights, but most likely will & our grandchildren (I've 6, BTW) who will be much less off than even we are - who have lost a vast amount of freedoms due to the encroachment of "for the betterment of mankind." It's all a lie &...

I wasn't missing it, bogie, just pointing out the more obvious. "Armed convoys" of truckers isn't going to happen, any more than a "protectorive service" for every day commutors. "Armed convoys" would be so transparent as to be just silly. The "shoot 'n scoot" scenario would be so likely...

But wingman, isn't that the whole point? Even with an increase in population, we needn't lose control of our rights? I live in a fairly rural area, but still have to deal with a "neighborhood road association." = huge heave factor, & yes, it's a growing problem, but is being addressesed...

" can easily envision truckers refusing to drive except in armed convoys ... " & really what would that do? A lone sniper could do the "shoot 'n scoot"-thing & nothing armed would have any effect whatsoever = undetectable. & I wouldn't be worrying about "armed Arabs," I'd be more...

wingman's "As population increases we require more laws to control the growing numbers." I do hope, Sir, that you are making a tongue in cheek comment. & if I've misread you, I appologize in advance. More laws will do nothing more than increase the wrath of those of us who already know...

Child's play, bogie, & you're not thinking The Big Picture. ;) A "domestic sniper attack," by those who know how to would involve. I don't envision shooting truckers - after all, they trnsport our stuff & aren't real targets of opportunity. What I do see is a selective assassinations...

Cosmoline'S: "Well at least I can keep a cow But I had to move to rural Alaska to be able to do it free of zoning or CC&R restrictions. Frankly the greatest tyranny doesn't come from DC. Never has. The greatest tyranny comes from neighbors who can control not just whether you own a cow...

FWIW, I decided to play around with an "average load" to make it all work in 3X .30-06 rifles I own. A 165 gr Hornady bullet (I like having the "game-getting" capability) ..... In any event, I loaded up a nominal charge/no case prep whatsoever/yada. I fired 'em from 2X bolts & one...

Salient points, your last few posts. I applaud you all. Point is, this country is gong to hell in a handbasket in the name of "security." & BTW, there is no such thing - never was against rape, murder, or any other predation any criminal would perperturate on us - never, except our own...

I'll give you that, ctdonath - for foreign terrorists, but still too, there will be "domestic terrorists" who want only for the politicians/rogue cops to stop their nonsense. These same type folk - 4/19/1775 on the Concord Green are envisoned as heros & some of the best our country had to...

ShaiVong, Wish I could have marked it as my own, but alas, it's from the owner of this site. I cannot take any credit other than to repeat it - worthy as it is.

"shoot & scoot" is exactly what I envsion - either from a "jihad," or from those that have just had it up to here. Just give it time. & again, if there's so much threat of terrorists, why are we not seeing any activity from such? Sure, we've "got 'em on the run," but don't anybody...

Yah!, gyp_c2. Although my CO CCW wil be reinstated this mid-week, I still find it necessary to go for a Florida non-res permit, as it will allow much more latitude as far as reciprocity across state borders than will my CO permit. "because of the fact that someones' kids/families are...
