    Well, it looks like Sotomayor's going to be confirmed. Did anyone who watched the hearing hear about what she thinks of the second amendment? What concerns me here is what was written in, I believe, the Maloney case Implying the second amendment isn't a fundamental right. Has Sotomayor...

    Best dangerous game semi-auto round

    Hey, I was wondering what the biggest caliber in a semi-auto that's practical to carry around is. I might be better using a shotgun with slugs, if I can't get a bigger caliber. I know there's one in .458 winchester magnum, though I think that has too much recoil.

    Arlen Specter has switches sides and is now a Democrat. However, he is probably not your average Democrat, probably more conservative and only switched to avoid a primary challenge. So, write to him and tell him to stay socially conservative.

    So what if you were going to buy an air rifle for under $300

    And you had only 4 requirements : Not PCP, because I can't afford a scuba tank, 1.2 foot or so LOP, .177 caliber, and can consistently hit the 9 ring on a 10 meter air rifle target? Spring rifles might be avoided as I hear they are very difficult to shoot accurately, is that true?

    Which is louder, the .223 or the 7.62x39, and how would these compare to a a riot gun with buckshot? ALthough it's an exponential scale, it would still be good to know the actual decibal level of each.

    Why we shouldn't ban them

    Recently, we have heard calls for "assault weapon" bans, from journalists who will still have their armed security to liberal politicians who let the criminals out on the streets in the first place.

    Townhall meetings

    I heard Obama had a townhall meeting, with questions from the interwebz, being selected by a virtual vote. Unfortunanatly, I didn't know it was going to happen, so I didn't get to vote.
