This is called a hobby for those of us that are good at what we do. Some people still do this as a hobby out of the military. Some are normal civilians that love the sport of shooting whether it be 3 gun, sniper contests, etc. Some avid hunters have more guns then tactical men like myself. Whatever the purpose we have our right to have them. If you were a car enthusiast (which I am as well) then why would you not have several cars that serve a different purpose and provide you with a different emotion each time you drive a different car. If I take out my Murcielago it is a totally different drive than my 580RWHP Camaro...both alot of fun but again a totally different experience. Same thing here. The 50 cal is for touching things out to 2,600 yards. I can not do that with a 300 win mag for example. So for different distances they create different caliber rifles....I hope this is making sense?

DUDE!!!!!!

Your sarcasm meter is broke.

Sorry, im a little pissed now since my son's team is being beat by Rice right now in the Armed Forces Bowl. He will be a 3rd gen AF pilot. He text'd me last night from Ft worth in his hotel worrying about the shit FeinSwine was spewing forth.

He starts at ILB btw....not that anyone cares

Would the citizen's win in a situation of the American government versus its citizens? I don't know, but I don't think they want to piss of even 10% of the 50 million American gun owners with 270 million guns in order to find out.

I don't think the resistamce would be against the goverment, so much as NATO forces. There was a picture floating around from a guy (in America) who was stopped at a railroad crossing and saw NATO marked tanks and apc's rolling by on the rail cars. The other problem is that the vast majority of the American military would immediately become part of the civilian resistance, because most are strong pro-gun-freedom.

Let's please not forget to protect our land from foreign threats as well. I think that gets overlooked, especially now since most people are having shriveling faith in our Congress (lowest approval rating).

I like that thought, that we would have the means to stand up to our government if needed. I fear though, that most Americans wouldn't know where to start, or have the ability to organize themselves. It's one of those things that would need everyone on board.

Well guess what? We didnt fly low, we adapted our tactics and ****ed up some shit!

I was willing at 23 years old to die for the freedom of the Kuwaiti people.

What makes this govt think i wont do the same in defense of the Constitution i swore to God to defend against ALL enemys.....foreign and (most sad of all) domestic.

I hope we come to our senses before this. I have faith!

You know what? I have never shared this with anyone....now i share it in cyberland. It was a life changing event for me all those years ago. I had a 13 month old boy (playing on national tv as i type) and a new wife (still married to her)

America, wake the hell up! Sandy Hook was a travesty indeed but it was an anomally. We need to figure out how to keep the wack jobs from ****ing it up for the rest of us. Its not about hunting, or self defense. Its about guaranteeing our continued liberties against a corrupt media/government. Look at history.....learn from the past....Nazi Germany, cambodia, Venezuala, China.....it goes on and on and on

I will shut the hell up now!

I wonder how many feds are here.

Seems they've forgotten who they work for.

They're going to move quickly, we should be doing the same..... Our best defense is the U.S. Constitution, the Supreme Court Judges, and our Congress and Senate.

If that fails, maybe it's time for a Boston Tea Party.

THE MAN: "Gentlemen, it is time to wage war against our citizens! Who is with me????"

MILITARY ADVISORS: "Oh HAYLL no! You bit it off... now you can eat it yourself!"

If we're needed, willing and able, those with organization and command abilities will be able to find us easy enough.

We need to do this for our children and grandchildren, or my dad and gr gr great grandfathers fought for nothing.....

I hope the fed report reads, "Mr MAN, you are about to find out what Screwed the Pooch means if you try to take the citizens weapons."

:confuse d0068:

God i miss hunting. Just refuse to pay $1500 minimum just to shoot a deer on someone's private land here in Tx.

I spent quite a bit of time in NM, H.S and college, and miss all the public land.
Sure, hunting season sucked, so many hunters out. But very few were willing to hike 2 days to the top of the ridgelines in, then willing to hike the 3 days out with their prize!

Good job! Very nice and congrats

Greetings,

Due to the recent events at Sandy Hook elementary school we now face renewed threats to our Constitutional rights. While I understand how painful the loss must be for those touched by this tragedy, blaming firearms or their owners and punishing them is not the answer to the challenges we face as a nation.

We already have laws that were violated by a man who was likely psychotic and heavily medicated. This man was stopped by the mandatory background check from purchasing firearms. He then decided to murder his mother and take her legally owned firearms to commit this tragedy.

If your true goal is to protect our children, then enact legislation that will do that. Banning firearms that are rarely used in crime (less than 1% of the time) is not going to stop such tragedies, that was proven in 1999 when the Columbine shooting took place under the 1994 ban. Do something meaningful, please. Make committing the insane easier. Put armed security guards in our schools. But do not strip us of our rights and property by passing additional anti-gun laws that have historically had no positive effect on crime in our nation or others.

Thank you.

Bulf, I am thankful you are being sarcastic...as you can imagine I think all of us can agree that we have a short fuse for sarcasm at this point with the severity of the issue at hand. I am sure I can speak for everyone here stating thank you for not only your service but your son's as well!

My suggestion for those not wanting to have to pay a fee for registering their gun, not being able to hand down your possessions from one generation to the next when you die, and now having the government know exactly what you own, what you look like, and how to get the firearms when the next foot falls. What are you going to do about it NOW instead of after it is enacted? This is the time you must act...not post. I am honestly surprised nobody is up in arms so to speak and at the whitehouse standing up for their rights.
