ParticipantRead the posters who know are yelling gun control, it was such a “joke” for them not that long ago. I tried to point out what was happening and read some of the responses, especially from blogstar. Very typical
ParticipantThere are some jobs that can never be replaced:

ParticipantYes, flu the smart people will do fine, but, you need a strong and large middle class to pay for everything that has been promised. If not, you will will see a faster detrioration in the way we all live.
ParticipantFinished my video for this years Quail Hunting. The video mostly shows scenery in Los Padres & Angeles Forests. There is some good footage of the snow storm we got last week. Hard to believe it’s So Cal.
Participant[quote=CA renter][quote=squat300]i would like to be a winner.[/quote]
You’re a much greater winner than Lance Armstrong. You seem to be a great family man who loves and supports his wife and kids, unlike Lance Armstrong. Based on your posts, I’m guessing you don’t habitually lie, cheat, steal, and run over others in your quest to “win.” You appreciate the little things in life and know how to value those closest to you.
You win, Lance loses. Big time.[/quote]
Let’s not go overboard with the praise,
“Douchebag doesn’t even begin to describe Lance…prick is too weak.
I think the word “lance” itself should mean supreme asshole, just like Santorum now means the frothy mix of feces and lubricant produced during anal sex, and i’m counting on you all to start using the world Lance” in common parlance to describe the biggest douchebag imaginable..”
Not exactly “Family Man” material.
Participant[quote=enron_by_the_sea][quote=desmond][quote=enron_by_the_sea]I just donated to Brady campaign.

The good thing for gun (responsible) owners is that the gun control crowd does very little other than type a few words, call people names, and donate a few bucks. Responsible gun owners have been preparing for years, with gun training, gun safes & locks, ammo and gun purchases, etc.[/quote]
Yes keep telling yourself that. Its a free country – everyone has a right to live in denial.
The funny thing is I used to be middle of the road on guns until last month – until I heard NRA. Now I have concluded that NRA are thugs and we need another thug in the town.[/quote]
More typed words- check
More name calling- check
Small (or doubtful)donation-check
Do nothing- checkThanks Enron

ParticipantI did not base my post on either kibu or paul. Get over that and on to a general discussion or do you just want to prove your point? If you want a discussion than discuss what I posted. It will be very difficult to find a real solution, no I do not have an answer. It seems the gun control side, like you, just want to slam gun owners,think your above them and just do no like them or their lifestyle?
Participant[quote=zk][quote=desmond]
This is what I saw coming, the gun control crowd starts bashing the gun owners. Instead of real solutions they just show their hatred of the people that own guns. Finally after so much “LMC” inspired hogwash the gun owners just get sick of it and say no. Gun sales skyrocket the pushback will be harder and the gun control crowd will continue to name call. I was thinking some controls, even though they would not work, would be okay, no large clips, but not anymore, forget it.[/quote]I just read all of KIBU’s posts on this thread. I didn’t see him call anyone a name. And then we have this:
[quote=Paul0373]Hey KIBU, get out of my face with all of your Gun Control Garbage. You know what? I’ve never felt the need to own a personal firearm until you self-righteous, Constitution hating Communists decided to start going after yet another personal liberty. Listen to Feinstein, Cuomo, Emanuel, Obama… and yourself.. You all make me ill. If I want to own 50 ARs and a million rounds of ammunition, that’s my business bud. If you’re so naive to think that this government is disarming us for our good while they(feinstein) have concealed carry permits and armed guards(all of them), you are a naive fool. Please, crawl in a hole until you have enough votes to amend the Constitution and until then I’d be happy to buy you an NRA membership and take you to the range for some target practice.[/quote]
If Paul’s response is to KIBU, which it certainly appears to be, then Paul’s problem isn’t that he’s fed up with name calling.
There’s been plenty of reasonable discussion on this board for stronger gun control. But that all appears to have been ignored. If all Paul has no response to this except to say is that we’re “self-righteous, Constitution hating Communists” and “naive fool[s],” we “make [him] ill” and that we should “crawl in a hole,” then perhaps the problem isn’t our “LMC inspired hogwash.” Perhaps the problem is the Limbaugh/Hannity/Savage/NRA-inspired, foaming-at-the-mouth, reasonless ranting of angry people like Paul.
You (desmond) say that we’ve bashed gun owners and offered no real solutions. That’s only true if you automatically disagree with all the solutions we have to offer. Let me ask you this: What solutions might we offer that you would consider “real”? Or are there none? If, in your opinion, there are none, then your accusation that we’re offering no real solutions doesn’t really fly.
Did you see Paul offering any solutions to the thousands of gun deaths we have in this country every year? No? Then how come you’re accusing the gun-control side of not offering solutions, but not the anti-gun-control side?
I don’t see how you read Paul’s post and come away with the conclusion that the gun-control side is the one not offering solutions.[/quote]
ZK,
I never mention kibu, so I guess you glossed over all the name calling posts by the gun control side, there are many. Now on to the solutions, (btw, I have owned guns since being a kid) I have tried in previous posts, maybe on the other thread, to point out how hard it will be to find a solution for the mass killing episodes. Ban a certain gun another one will be used, try to cut down on the the clip size, smaller clips can be replaced in seconds to continue shooting. It probably will not be banning certain guns or any type of “registering” that will do anything to help (imo). I also fear that if the mental aspect gets more “crackdown” than the people that need help will avoid it. As the post deteriorates into name calling (by both sides) it becomes useless. Unless both sides are willing to work together a cramdown solution by either side will, pardon the pun, backfire.Participant[quote=Paul0373]Hey KIBU, get out of my face with all of your Gun Control Garbage.

ParticipantI have only had one and was clean and have another year before I need another. But, yea, doing it every year would suck and the pill camera, forget it…btw, my brother-in-law ended up passed out in his driveway and they found out his lower intestine was fused (?) to his stomach? He is now in the hospital. Appreciate you health.
ParticipantOne of the easiest procedures to have. Haven’t you done the lemonade diet? It’s worse. After my procedure I was so high all the nurses were laughing at me. I insisted I never went out during the procedure and totally lost track of time and what was going on.
ParticipantShov, don’t listen to the “your losing if your in cash” or “sitting on the sidelines is not where you want to be”. Everybody has a different tolerance for investing. You might want to make smaller scheduled investments into the market and not be so concerened waiting for “something to happen”. I just advised my son to start this years new 401k contributions into the market. (He will keep his current savings in cash). Where you don’t want to be is with losses or no savings at all……….
ParticipantThe difference in salaries between teams is very small in football, so big deal. (I just threw in a cheap shot at the end that you seemed to take as important)
