    Just the beginning. All you ***holes that voted for him please start the apologizing and ****ing back peddling so we can verify who the quislings are. You self righteous, egotistical pricks can shove it up your *** sideways with a roll of cold nickels. **** you :xmad::xmad::xmad:
    Oh goodness

    The guy that didn’t want the thread about him sure seems to be trying to make the thread about him. Ironically he’s also the one who voted for this, and in this exact thread gives rationalization on why he voted for him... after he passes a EO on gun control... on a gun forum... smell the fishy smell yet?!

    It doesn't look like the EOs will be on the Federal Registry for a few more days so I haven't seen them to actually read them yet, but they all sound like feel-good nonsense that they were already doing. Nominating a gun banner to head the ATF and telling him to go ban guns is no surprise to anyone. Even the nitwits that are going to act surprised by it...

    I'm shocked imports weren't on the list. Maybe that's act 2.

    Me too. I'm 99% positive this is coming and they're just choosing a careful time to make it a political punishment against whatever country they want to finger wag at. Imports are very nearly the only thing the president alone can take action on.

    Think critically? You need to study the CDC and FBI crime stats and see just how many are killed by firearms versus knives and blunt objects. Violence is the problem, period! Not the tool. The fact that we have allowed rampant violence against another human being to reach the current level is the true root cause that needs to be addressed.
    He likes to make himself feel he’s intellectually superior by giving his opinion and following it up with “anyone who can think critically”... implying that he’s smarter than you and if you don’t agree with his opinion it’s because you lack critical thinking abilities. He voted for Biden, so i don’t really value his opinion in any way shape or form. Let him stroke his ego however he wants, but it’s best to skip over his posts.

    37 years in engineering and 8 US patents, happy to talk “critical thinking”.

    Common expression but it does bring to mind that Act and Birds (God rest his soul), I will say rarely but without a search, I don't recall either of our resident sailors swearing.


    Well, I can't speak for Birds.
    But I definitely have the "ability" to swear like a sailor, and it is occasionally exercised.

    But, going from the Navy, to a Steel Mill, well I was "exercising" that ability a little too often.
    I became an Assistant Scoutmaster, and occasionally after a meeting, I was thinking, "Did I accidentally curse?"
    So, since I was having a problem turning it on/off, I determined to just STOP.
    It took a while.
    But now I don't curse every other word.

    At work one day, something happened, and a long string of curse words came out.
    A guy that's only known me 5 years or so, looked shocked, and stated, "I didn't think you knew those words"
    I laughed.

    What is this noteworthy difference you claim?
    I thought all abortion advocates were for abortion with the woman's choice.
    Are there really people out there advocating for abortions without the woman's choice?
    A politician says he's personally against guns, but supports the choice of those who want them?

    To put something back on the original topic in play here.



    You may now go back to your shouting match...not that you're actually accomplishing anything.

    While the verbege may be different, I think the effects will be the same if not worse. Executive action to BATFECES rethink what percent a receiver can be before it becomes a gun, you originally said 80%, perhaps it should be lower let's say 50% or that still might be too low.

    I'd be surprised if you didn't have the ability. I had an uncle who was a sailor during WW2, he definitely had the ability but I think I only heard him use it once. My granddad was a mill worker, I never heard him swear. My mom said she heard him once say damn, that was it and he was pissed at the time, it shocked my mom. But at his funeral a bunch of his old co-workers were there, from how they tell it about every other word was a curse word. You being both...

    Well yeah, it is. That's pretty much obvious to anyone who can think critically, and can count bodies. Same thing with cars, tobacco, alcohol etc.

    Your rebuttal should be trying to twist yourself into a pretzel trying to find ways it isn't true. A simple asking why a law-abiding citizen shouldn't own the firearm that they choose should suffice.
    I don't recall the media and democrats tying themselves in knots over cars when deaths are usually approximate or even exceed gun deaths. Gun deaths of all types in a population of 330M is .01%, not a public health crisis. Our gun deaths remain fairly stable over time, there was a spike throughout the 80's, went down through the 90's and 2000's and had an increase in 2014 but it looks like it was starting to come back down. If it was really about gun deaths they would try to tackle suicides.

    FIRST, I’m not saying the same should apply to firearms. We clear? Ok.

    “Democrats” don’t need to ties themselves into knots over vehicle accidents. Vehicles are highly regulated, and that does not appear to be something that’s is going to slow down. Can you think of how much car safety standards have changed in say the past 50 years?

    It’s pointless to twist one’s self about to make it about public health also. It’s a spin to try to get people to think of it as something that they’re more willing to go along with. Of course one could find ways to in which it relates to public health. But is that the most accurate way to characterize it? Not really. If they’re focusing on it as that, will they get to the root of the problem and fix it? I’m skeptical.

    None of those safety standards make it harder to buy a car, or prevent certain people from buying cars. Nor do they restrict features, size, weight, speed, or power of cars (indeed cars have gotten significantly faster and more powerful over the years) They do nothing to prevent cars from being used as weapons, or to commit crimes. They don't prevent a 5 year old from starting the car when he gets a hold of his dad's keys (hell modern cars are even easier for kids to start, you just push a button on the dashboard)

    In fact every single safety regulation is geared toward preventing accidental deaths due to operator error or equipment failure while at high speeds, and that is something guns have never had a big problem with
