Was it anti gun laws in Connecticut

that kept this family safe ? http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/07/24/national/main3092098.shtml

Or was listening to Al-Qaeda's communications a bigger threat to them?

[acmanko]

I think you might be confused with the concept of safe, unless being dead means never having to worry again. nothing noted about gun laws or Al-queda in the story or is that just a sublime attempt at grandoise headlines.

[James 3528]

The irony may be to deep for you to wrap your mind around.

Spam! Why do the Mods let you spam! wah wah wah, snifle.:rolleyes:

[James 3528]

You may have a point. CBS is right up there with democratunderground. But why would you read and respond to a article not slamming the president?

[acmanko]

You post something stupid and get slammed by me and tink, save us from your sandbox and thinkbefore posting stupidity on the internet.

[James 3528]

Nothing stupid about it.

Slammed by you and tinnk.....LOL ....like being attack by 2 homo rabbits

LOL
I guess the mental midgets missed the 2 questions you attached to the article. :rolleyes:

The only problem with common sense is that it is not always common (as in not everyone having it).

I see a definite connection in James' post and anti-gun laws.

In the case of the article James posted; if the perps KNEW there was a good chance they would be on the business end of a handgun held by someone trained and ready to apply 'deadly force', I bet you a beer they would have not even stopped at the curb.

Folks just do not get it. Criminals are not intellectuals. They operate by the law of the street... and that law is different than the dribble that comes off the Potomac.

Sometimes I wish our resident liberals would experience some life-threatening situation, and realize they have only one hope 'defend themselves'.

But I can see Geer now: His usual passive manipulative conversation tactics trying to persuade the perp to leave. Only thing is, the perp would get tired of it in about 10 seconds and whack Geer up the side of his mouth hard enough to end the conversation... Then there is Tinkerbell: He would probably start crying... and the perp would leave because he realized there was nothing to get.

[James 3528]

Yes, liberals squawk about the patriot act but Connecticut makes it harder to defend yourself in your own home. If you want to know what a invasion of privacy really is, go buy a gun there.

The US Constitution does not make exceptions about firearms. Connecticut does and when you get cut down by criminals such as these, you can see they are free to roam the streets again soon .

Liberals, IMO, are children that are afraid to grow up...OR... they have figured out how to milk the system (legally).

Hmmm, I wonder what the difference is between a liberal that milkes the system (Nancy P comes to mind), and a secretive white collar criminal? Anyone know?

[acmanko]

seems like one can but a shotgutn in Conneticut, maybe not a handgun or rifle, but you can defend yourself if you want

You have a mistaken perception for anal. Anal is what you just had worked on. I think you have contempt for people that can make it on there on. Another liberal endearing quality

LOL you should have read the entire page. It proves my point that you said I did not have. In fact you now have a lot to say about something that you said was nothing. A sure sign of a registered idiot.

Hey, can I help it if I found a good place to live with folks that have real common sense? :D:p:D

[acmanko]

whats wrong with having contempt for people who make it on their(notice spelling)on. most of them should be in jail for income tax evasion.

You obviously have not spent much time at the shooting range... Using a shotgun for self defense in a home with small rooms is kinds difficult. It is a lot easier with, say, a 45ACP with 185 G jacketed HP's.

When your back feels good enough, take a trip to the range and plunk off a box. It feels mighty good to shoot a handgun (unless you have a mental issue). :D

A sure sign of a registered idiot.Idid read the whole page and Al_queada was never mentioned. Besides most of todays gun laws are by products of the Brady Bill.. Personally I believe all of us should be able to carry a weapon concealed or not.

I can't hit the broad side of a barn with one of them.:D there is something about the unique sound of a 12 guage pump that makes folks stop and look around

LOL a wannabe that never was. See that a mile off.

[acmanko]

LOL a wannabe that never was. See that a mile off. You have no idea of what my real position is. But anytime I talk about small business and taxes you shutter.:D

[James 3528]

It sounds like your "position" has been bent over and on your knees.

[acmanko]

It sounds like your "position" has been bent over and on your knees. Now thats funny. You don't know how much I would even like to be able to get on my knees right now. But its like understanding the crap you come up with, mission impossible

Agree on the noise of a shotgun action being 'cycled'.

Also, the sound of the slide being moved on a 45 auto seems to bring attention.

I used to think the business end of a 45 had an ominous look to it... but I believe now-a-days that a perp hardened enough to break into my home with criminal intent, probably does not care and would not be intimidated anyhow.

BTW: how is the back?

BTW: how is the back? I do believe having back surgery was not in my best interest, hopefully another 4 weeks will change my outlook on it.

Perhaps your next operation should be a lobotomy and then you might be able to express what your real positions are instead of changing positions, not being consistent and dancing around a fairy and then getting mad when folks correct you. Give us a break.

AC, I have 4 herniated discs 2 bulging, deteriorated muscle tissue
and some other " dis comforts in the region. area's affected from l5-s1
I was young when I first ijured my back, younger than i should have been to incur such an injury, but Surgery was a major topic amongst the docs , with the ultimate decision made by me to no go thru with it.

now 6 years later, I have about 30% disability, am able to do my job
crawl,stoop,lift etc. granted I really take care of my self and dont do all the stupid things i would have when i was younger.
But I often think about what kind of shape I would be in had I gone thru the operation. and I have yet to see the benifits of it(surgery), having been around and friends with, with people with similar afflictions that did do it.

best of luck to you!! and remember
"Pain is weakness Leaving the body!":D :rolleyes:

Give us a break. You are the one who utilizes the ignore button. I've been having to backtalk to James since the first post I made on this forum. He knows it and As far as I can tell,he relishes anytime he gets the upper hand on any member. so leave us alone:D
