Also, do you think a criminal is more or less likely to break into your vehicle if he or she knows he or she can be shot while doing so, with the full blessings of the law? Neither . As studies have shown time and time again, the severity of the punishment changes crime rates surprisingly little. W...

Trap shooting pigs over here... :shock: Whats worse, thats its the Strib...or that they're willing to compromise their "journalistic principles" for money? Any decent news organization maintains a strict separation between advertisers and its reporting staff. To prevent advertisers from '...

Anyone requiring "years of practice" to hit a target at 500 yards has some really crappy practice methods.... Regardless of that, the noob-friendliness of this gun is tough to understate: Via Ars Technica : Steve has just delivered a .338 Lapua Magnum round directly onto a target about th...

Yeah accusations of partisanship are nonsense. The fact is that two groups don't agree, and Obama, while claiming a desire for non-partisanship hasn't been any more effective than any other president (left or right). He has really distinguished himself with sleazy and underhanded tactics in attempt...

haha. nice try. as much as you attempt to marginalize, the fact is that the country is pretty well divided down the middle. I don't believe he's trying to marginalize your side. Rather, he's making a reference to your partisanship. But you would have had to have seen a specific Star Trek episode to...

None of this matters. They still deserve " a logical discussion . We aren't allowed to be frustrated with their politics or their antics. If you somehow consider " being frustrated with politics and antics " and " Having a logical discussion " as mutually exclusive, then yo...

It doesn't actually appear that EA has paid any license fees in the past. Just a charity for wounded veterans that asked for cash from gun manufacturers, and then promoted those that donated with links. But as far as license goes, nothing has changed. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/05/no-ea-wont...

Alll of the above, plus, you just got in bed with those advocating subsidies for windmills, solar panels, organic food, and whatever else makes just one child safer. Enjoy your troughmates. Seriously, this. After all the small government griping I've seen on here, I'm horrified to see people get be...

That's weird. I bought two new guns this last month and had to show my drivers license both times. I cannot think of a time when I didn't have to show my drivers license to buy a gun. Every time I've filled out a Back ground check I've had to show my drivers license. I'll admit one time I didn't, h...

While we are debating the "Voter ID Act" Let me ask how many legal citizens DO NOT have some sort of photo ID? It is nearly impossible to do many daily tasks without producing a photo ID. Cashing a check, buying alcoholic beverages, buying tobacco products, securing a loan for a house or ...

I see. So whenever some a$$hat says something you agree with, it's proof of something. Got it. How you interpret it is definitely colored by your existing beliefs. But the fact remains that voter ID laws will have a significant impact on who can vote. Both sides agree on this. And Heffay was correc...

That is correct. Just about every box of primers taken off the store shelves at regular price winds up on gunbroker, I'd be willing to bet. I know of a couple guys that know cabelas stock schedule like clockwork. Just clear the shelves and double+ their money. The "panic" will not end whe...

What are we looking for? I don't see it :? The magazine is upside down in the middle AR. Ohhhhh, nice catch. I totally missed that...even had to look really hard after you mentioned it. I own an AR, and still missed it in the picture. How bad should I feel? However, I just went and tried it out phy...

So.....Kerri Salazar is livid over the truth? ... 'near as I can tell, she's livid that no one consulted her ... to use her Indianness?! Exactly. " How dare you not ask my permission to mention the fact that the federal government treated my ancestors like crap?!? " And I suppose to be th...

The Republican governor of Pennsylvania specifically said that voter ID laws are designed to help get Republicans elected. True, but only because the Democrat Party has been engaging in widespread election fraud for most of its history. Actually, it couldn't be further from the truth. Mr. Heffay is...
