Re: Rep. Erhardt to Rothman (GOCRA) "I'll blow your head off!"

Rep. Erhardt responded, yelling, "Give me a double F! No more surveys! You come near me, and I'll blow your head off!"
With what? :?

Re: Obama: Time to review local police militarization

Why hasn't any one called out where that personal / radio carryer is parked? Hint blue lines, thing on wall? Come on where's the out rage? They must be special. :shock: It's clearly marked "Macomb County" which is in Michigan, matching the state logo. I would presume that's it's parked in...

Re: Obama: Time to review local police militarization

Civilians should be able to own anything the police can. They should also be able to obtain the same military surplus. Seems reasonable, since police are civilians ... Quite awhile ago on the MN Carry Forum, I asked whether in fact this could be the basis for a court case challenging laws restricti...

If it situation requires armor and heavy machine guns, isn't that what the National Guard is for?

Physical Courage training?

I haven't been in a physical confrontation since high school, and frankly my first reaction to assault is to cry like a little girl. Situational awareness is vital to hopefully not get blindsided in the first place; but if it does happen, how do I not freeze up or go into shock? If one punch puts me...

Re: 1000 'Children' Fleeing Violent Honduras to Violent Chicago

I really wish the word "children" was reserved for minors under 13, and 13-18 were called "youths". Calling a swaggering young buck capable of raping an adult woman a "child" is imbecilic.

Re: Cite needed

False alarm- I finally chased down the incident I was thinking of. Thomas P. "Boston" Corbett- more famous as the man credited with killing John Wilkes Booth- while serving as an assistant doorman to the Kansas House of Representatives in 1887 pulled a revolver there. There are conflicting...

Re: Cite needed

No, iirc it was one person, it was after the Civil War, and it was at the state legislature, not Lawrence. But that shows the difficulty of searching for it, there are so many incidents in Kansas history.

Cite needed

I understand that back in the post-Civil War nineteenth century, a gunman with revolvers shot and killed some people in the Kansas State Legislature. But given the history of "Bloody Kansas", I can't narrow an online search enough. Can anyone help with this?

Re: Great Essay!

I finally got around to reading this long winded and at times seemingly contradictory article. I found myself agreeing with much of what the author said, but I also think he could use a remedial course in political philosophy. "the liberal, democratic capitalist welfare/social-democratic state...

Where's the genius that can create an alliance.

We fought with the Russkies, gave them food, trucks, guns, planes and Hitler went down in flames.....

The strangeness of the alliance of Guns/Abortion is intriguing.......
Sorry, did one of the links mention abortion?

Re: Great Essay!

Well the subtitle is "A Left Argument for Gun Rights", so that's upfront right there. Personally I see gun rights as a populist/libertarian cause that blurs a lot of Left/Right distinctions.
