Speaking of AR-15. I'll post up a picture of me shooting an SR-15 if I can find it. HEEE.

As for my view on assault riffles. Fully auto matic things like uzzi's. Small enough to hide....etc...small caliber. I am in support of bans of those types of weapons or very very difficult review process.

But there are many guns on the banned list that I don't agree with.

There are legit gun collecter. There are people that like those and there are people that probably could use one in their home to protect themselves. Though I prefer a benelli M4 or something similar..haaaaaa.

I have friends with guns that are now illegal that weren't when they got the...what about those people?

I say the new law should be:

Have you been convicted of a felony or a crime of violence?

No: OK, have fun with your toys.

Why the hell was some city guy making more than the mayor? No wonder all these counties are in financial chaos. People making way too much money. [/B]
all of these government entity that keep screaming "BUDGET CUTS, BUDGET CUTS..." are just lying...

for example, i work at cal state hayward. you know how bad the budget was cut. so a hiring freeze was put into place.

yet, a coworker recently is moving to another dept on campus. the kicker is that this is newly POSITION!!!!!!! so much for a hiring freeze... this person tells me that one of the higher ups pulled some strings to that job...

it's joke... money is there. everyone is just hiding it...

Remember everyone - you are the governement and YES you still can make a difference. We need to do this soon though, because sooner than later I'm afraid the personification of our government is going to back-fire on us - and we better hope we can fire back!
Werd! (But look out 'cause Tom Ridge now probably has your home bugged)

Sisqo, organic foods are good. Try organic bananas... they are the bomb and yes, you can tell the difference. hehe

Seriously though, good points in this discussion. Let's have our next meet at the town hall and bring this to the table. Participatory govt should be just that

Note: organic :banana:

The odds are against you being shot in Japan.
However, I might advise against riding the subway.

Here is a clear cut meaning of the word Civil.
Relating to the rights of private individuals and legal proceedings concerning these rights as distinguished from criminal, military, or international regulations or proceedings.
Here is a clear cut meaning of the word Revolt.

To attempt to overthrow the authority of the state; rebel.
or
To oppose or refuse to accept something
or
An uprising, especially against state authority; a rebellion
Here is a clear cut meaning of the word Economy.
Careful, thrifty management of resources, such as money, materials, or labor
or
An orderly, functional arrangement of parts; an organized system
Here is a clear cut meaning of the word Govern.
To make and administer the public policy and affairs of; exercise sovereign authority in
or
To keep under control; restrain
or
To control the actions or behavior of
In my opinion a "Civil" war would make no sense. You see, the law makers are taking away the rights we covet. The rights of private individuals. These rights are ours, givin to us by our for fathers. We know it as the Constitution. The supreme law of the land. So the proper type of war would be a Revolutionary war. A Revolt against an authority or Government that systematicaly removes our Civil rights through convoluded political means. So, I would think the way to make waves is to hurt the system where it hurts the most, take away the money. Just imagine for a moment what would happen if every single American tax payer stopped paying his/her income tax. Wouldn't that be a tragedy for the U.S. political machine.

How about a Economic Civil Revolutionary war.

Man, listen to me ramble on.....shad up already will ya....Sorry for the long post. I just had to rant about this. It ticks me off to see our rights going to the dogs.

Japan is a strange case, as guns were banned there before they became at all common. Japan has one of the oldest civilized cultures in the world, and when guns made there way there, those who would have made use of them looked down upon them as dishonorable.
