    Political Ramblings

    We must ask ourselves... Are we governed or ruled?

    Political Ramblings

    Short barreled rifles and shotguns fall under the AOW (any other weapon) category. You can actually take a double barrel shotgun and cut down the stock and the barrel effectively making a sawed off shotgun if you submit an ATF Form 1. They're really just a novelty item.

    Political Ramblings

    It is important to point out that executive orders are not laws but can only clarify or strengthen existing laws. We do not yet know what EOs be issued but based on the administrations disdain for the balance of power between the branches there is a high probability that some will be border on...

    "Yoo hoo. Unknown stranger. I'm sorry but I can't answer the door since I'm home alone with my children." That's a perfect recipe for a statistic.

    It's actually pretty easy to machine out an AR lower using plate aluminum for the magwell. Not as easy as one of the plastic printers but still just a couple of hours work.

    Political Ramblings

    TT, so if we're against additional gun laws, I assume that would be the no-law brigade, then we lack compassion? That's not a generalization that I'd expect you to make. We all agree that people should have the right to go about their lives without getting shot. But we also don't live in a...

    Political Ramblings

    Everyone knows that I am a strong supporter of the 2nd amendment. For starters, I believe that they really need to strengthen the NICS database. Many states don't update it with their felony convictions. And I am also not opposed at all to background checks for all gun sales if it is done...

    Almost everything that is wrong with legislation in this country can be seen in this example of the bill. Does anyone here really understand what they are saying?

    Political Ramblings

    Had the Fed not dropped rates and kept them low, I'd hate to imagine how bad things would be right now. Unfortunately, there is too much uncertainty for businesses to take on extra loans or for banks to make loans that they may have made in the past.

    Darn. That sounds like Capitol City in "The Hunger Games" Like usual. The odds are not in our favor.

    Political Ramblings

    As I've told my wife. It's nothing to get worked up about. They'll keep raising the debt limit and spending well beyond the point of sustainability. All we need to do is focus on better ways to become self sufficient and able to provide for ourselves with our garden and livestock.

    What is funny is that what is coming are not spending cuts. They are just not getting the budget increase percentages that they have been getting every year.

    Political Ramblings

    Borrowing money that can never be paid back to stimulate growth is not the answer. Sure we can borrow more and stimulate a little more, but where will we be in another 10 years. That is not you. This is us. Without massive inflation that hurts everyone, we will be saddled with ever growing...

    I believe that Keynesian economics is a flawed concept.

    It is bad policy to spend what you don't have. My share is $142,648 when i just checked. That is not debt per person which is $52,049, but for taxpayer. These numbers are going up for the foreseeable future with no end in sight. We must stop the spending.

    Political Ramblings

    What is really hurting America is that the middle class jobs are going overseas where labor and regulations are much cheaper. The main driving force for this is that Americans want the cheapest product possible. If you were to set up a stand in any department store with 2 identical shoes on...

    Political Ramblings

    If you've ever been in a third world country, then you'd know just how corrupt that officials can be. I watched a cop in Guayaquil Ecuador at an on ramp to a highway stopping every car. He'd find something wrong and they'd hand him a handful of coins with assurances that they'll take care of it...

    If you live in an NFA friendly state, you can most certainly own automatic weapons. They are title 2 firearms that require a decent amount of paperwork to obtain. The SCOTUS ruled that it is not the job of the police to protect anyone...
