POLL: Should Profire Resume Parking Trailers Full of NFA Overnight in the Alley?

[Robjps]

Ill bring it up in this thread again for you to ignore, why do you have a vendetta/hardon for profire on this subject but ignore the fact that leo's across the country from city/county/state/federal all store firearms in the same manner? Including class 3. Not to mention USPS/FedEx and trucking companies in the same manner.

 

[Gluemanz28]

Correct, it's a minivan I paid $2000 2 years and 40k miles ago, I wouldn't blink if someone stole it.

Then go park it behind Profire.

 

[Fargo]

So colored.

I believe there is an educational opportunity here, even though it will likely fall on mostly deaf ears.

Your calls to have Andrew pilloried, however, will not fall on deaf ears; the antis will eat this up as verifiable proof that even gun nuts so nutty as to use an avatar of a child holding an assault rifle (GASP!) think that machine guns are more dangerous than sunbathing next to the cooling pool at Fukushima.

I agree with Que (who, if you'll slow down and read his post, did not advocate anything criminal). Andrew *should* be able to do whatever he wants with his private property. While we may question the wisdom of the actions of him or his employees, it is, after all, his property.

That said, with the laws currently on the books, he has agreed to abide by many rules and regulations as part of being an SOT3 and, if he is found to have been out of compliance, I'm sure he will be held accountable.

It is, however, my opinion that neither he, nor anyone else *should* have to be an SOT3 to possess or sell a full auto or any other weapon, if the Second Amendment is to be respected in full.

This could be, for some, an opportunity to have such discussions and have a chance to get people to reconsider another perspective.

For others, it is apparently an opportunity to, unwittingly or otherwise, serve as crew on the enemy's SAW.

How have I called for Andrew to be Pilloried?

I defy you to show me where I have called for prosecution/boycott/closing/revocation. I categorically have not.

I am in favor of the NFA going away and believe it to be unconstitutional, but at the moment it is here and the reality we live in.

If SOT3's keep leaking machineguns into criminal hands in this fashion, there is no reason to think it will ever go away, much less get much worse.

I am amazed that you accuse me of feeding the anti's at the same time you defend the behavior that led to a national story about machinguns in criminal hands.

YMMV

It's Profire's property and their choice.

If you have never made a decision that in some way blew up in your face, maybe even 20 years later, let me introduce you to my ex-wife!

Did you remarry her or did you avoid doing the same thing in the future?

Nah, traded her in for a new one! Been together 23 years now.

Ladys and Gentlemen, please take a moment and note to yourself what you are doing at this very moment. . . . . . . .I believe another epic INGO thread is in the birth canal!



Or the dooky chute, I can't tell from this angle!

 

[danielson]

I didnt really see, in this thread anyway, where anyone has called for profire or its owner(s) to have any punishment over the matter. Alot of telling it like it is, and alot of coming to friends' defenses is all Ive seen. Unless something is going on in another thread, I would think some people are using the offensive defense tactic.. But I couldnt imagine something like that happening on INGO!!!!

I vote for bacon as well...

 

[RMC]

I think there are far too many people with guns. Therefore, please do the right thing and send your Sigs, Kimbers, etc. to me to help reduce this number.

 

[danielson]

And people call the OP a troll...

 

[RMC]

OK, I'll take Sigs, Kimbers, etc. and some bacon.

 

[danielson]

Well, now that theres bacon, I retract my previous comment...

 

[30calmachinegunner]

Why yes, people are not done shopping are they?

 

[Lex Concord]

Then go park it behind Profire.

Actually, in that area, if you park it there overnight, if you do happen to find it in the morning, there's a good chance the tires will be gone.

pillory: a means for exposing one to public scorn or ridicule

As this forum is public, and you are most certainly ridiculing him....

I defy you to show me where I have called for prosecution/boycott/closing/revocation. I categorically have not.

I defy you to show me where I have accused you of calling for any of those things. Please see the definition of pillory above.

I am in favor of the NFA going away and believe it to be unconstitutional, but at the moment it is here and the reality we live in.

Good to know our only real disagreement is likely to be tactics.

If SOT3's keep leaking machineguns into criminal hands in this fashion, there is no reason to think it will ever go away, much less get much worse.

I am amazed that you accuse me of feeding the anti's at the same time you defend the behavior that led to a national story about machinguns in criminal hands.

I am amazed that you are categorizing me as defending anything beyond the Second. Of course, I shouldn't be at all surprised after you accused Que of supporting criminal activity.

As far as you feeding the anti's, do you seriously think it beyond the pale that they wouldn't love to use some of your posts above as ammunition in their campaigns? Even some gun nuts agree with us? No, they've never done any such thing.

I seem to remember after the Sandy Hook shooting that there were many supporters of the Second who were able to successfully raise salient points about certain firearm restrictions in an attempt to educate. I'm not sure what your stance was at the time, but it did happen

I may be wrong about the possibility of using this as an opportunity to educate rather than to pillory another over his choices with his private property; and event in which, thankfully, the only harm has been to property and ego. At least I'll admit I may be wrong.

YMMV

It most certainly does.

 

[handgun]

I feel they did nothing wrong. But at the same time I would not personally want to keep things like that in my trailer over night they would belong under my bed

 

[Birds Away]

I think this horse died a while ago, fellas.

This poll is nonsense, and it's being presented in a very snarky, self-serving manner. Hindsight is 20/20, especially when applied to the mistakes of others.

I learned a lot from the posts about this topic.
1) trailers are much easier to steal than I previously thought
2) trailers can be broken into with less effort than I previously thought
3) stealing entire trailers is more prevalent than I thought
4) INGO is home to a lot of smug, self-righteous Monday-morning quarterbacks (oh wait, I already knew this)

Get over yourself.
