I assume he was kidding with the "dumbf***" line. You must be good pals. Did u buy him a beer or cup of java for his protection? It's pretty much the whole neighborhood. We have Friday night get togethers every other week with a group of about 5-6 families. I did buy refreshments that week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangeSox Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Nobody's really done anything about bump stocks, but the House did pass concealed-carry reciprocity, meaning that if you're licensed to carry in one state, you can carry in any state. It's been one of the NRA's main goals for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar fights should always end in gunfire IMO. Everyone in times square at NYE should be armed. Also if police challenge your right to a CC permit from another state, you can bring charges against said police.

Bob Sacamano Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) As Jimmy Kimmel pointed out in his one monologue after the Vegas shooting, Democrats and Republicans both vote against stricter gun laws. Feel that needs to be said here before people start pointing fingers at one side (although, not having read through the last few pages, it's possible it's already happened).

Dick Allen Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 25, 2018 -> 09:54 AM) What a perverse world you live in. Bump stocks had nothing to do with the vegas shooting and would have almost no effect on gun fatalities in America. You learned what a bump stock was the day after the Vegas shooting. They're a distraction. Huh? And apparently since it would only have a slight effect on gun fatalites, wanting them outlawed is living in a perverse world.

Dick Allen Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 25, 2018 -> 01:36 PM) Those are separate posts. I didn’t say wanting bump sticks outlawed Id perverse despite your conflating. Look at the pictures from the hotel room. There are stands set up and guns propped. You can’t use a numb stock on a stand. They found bump stocks on 12 of his guns. If you google it, you can find pictures in about a half a second. Are you reporting they weren't used? Do you have a source? The guy had so many weapons and artillery in his room, he was breathing through a tube.
