Good - Fanatical Hypocrite
[ In Reply To ..]The gun companies lose their contracts with the largest single gun buyer in the world and the government gets their guns from somewhere else.
At least government agencies will still be able to use the handguns, rifles and shotguns that are used almost exclusively in all situations not involving tactical assaults.
And really, is there any better way to get back at politicians than by trying to get members of the SWAT team killed while they work to rescue innocent civilians? Wait... that sounds suspiciously wrong...
It's called punishing those who pee on the 2nd amendment - Fanatical hypocrites Bloomberg and Cuomo

I just liked your post for using my name - Fanatical Hypocrite
[ In Reply To ..]The 2nd Amendment, I must admit, it's one of my least favorites. Necessary and important, but there are better ones in there for me. However, I would never micturate upon any amendment. Maybe Prohibition. That one wasn't so smart. Besides, why soil the Constitution when I have presidents, congressman and Supreme Court justices to do that for me? Corporations are people and money is speech.
I believe I am keeping to both the letter of and spirit of the Second Amendment. "A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." People can keep all sorts of arms. Handguns, rifles, shotguns, swords, daggers, maces, pepper spray, tazers, a board with nails in it, baseball bats, spiked gauntlets, etc. Just no assault weapons, weaponized Ebola, nuclear submarines or Apache helicopters. I'm even fine with people bearing arms despite the fact that they don't have a well-regulated militia, placing the NRA and its devotees firmly into the zone of violating the Second Amendment they do so dearly love.
Also, the Founding Fathers never envisioned assault weapons, breakdown guns, cruise missiles, nuclear bombs and so many other horrors. They loved both their people and its representative government, so I'm certain they would have done their best to protect the fledgling nation had these been a concern. We'll never know, so we have to decide on our own what to do and the general population thinks that there should be tighter limits. Not too tight, but tighter than this gun flinging free-for-all we have going now.
The constitution survives, guns or no guns, through the will of the American people.
Misread your post - Fanatical Hypocrite
[ In Reply To ..]I read the signature part as "Fanatical hypocrites, Bloomberg and Cuomo" when there is no comma there. Had to amend my post because of it. I better get to bed before I make more stupid mistakes;) Funny the difference a comma makes.

It's a sad day at Old Grouch's Military Surplus and Predator Intelligence.
Old Grouch's LOL! - Fanatical Hypocrite
[ In Reply To ..]Thanks for posting that link. I love these names! Exile Machine, Kiss Tactical, Controlled Chaos and especially Head Down Products are so weird. Exile Machine sounds like a South American paramilitary outfitter.
I went to Old Grouch's website and I like this quote: "We make every attempt to buy from nations friendly to the United States." They make every attempt? Why not just succeed? I don't think I've ever bought something, looked at the tag and it says "Made in Iran."
Oh... now I just went to Head Down Products... wow. Their symbol is a blood red skull fading into the darkness. They actually sell a rifle called the Deceptus that disassembles and folds into a briefcase and it says you can reassemble it in under 1 minute without tools. x2 30 round mags. I shouldn't jump to conclusions about the kind of people that would buy such a thing. I could see how an avid hunter might be in the office, listening to a boring power point presentation, when a herd of deer busts through the window demanding to be shot. Yet you would look like a total nut if you brought a non-breakdown gun to work. Now who looks like a crazy person? Not the guy who just bagged two dozen deer and still had time to review that memo.
I'd admire the gun dealers for this if they weren't already too - low to hop above the muck. nm

As A Conservative And Gun-owner I'm Fine With RestrictingJun 17, 2016
...and I mean ANY guns down to and including pellet guns. There are some other things that I would also prohibit them from owning, such as anything that can be used in making bombs, etc. No timers, no mercury or remote switches, no radio transmitters, no primers, etc.. So sorry, but if you're on a TERROR WATCH LIST there's a reason for it - or should be (see below). This makes perfect sense, so I don't see why Trump's willingness to consider this should be ...
Transcription And Direct SalesOct 22, 2012
I am a transcriptionist and just joined a direct sales company working from home to try and compensate for my low transcription wages. Things seem to be going pretty well. It has gotten me out of my shell. Sometimes I feel like a hermit being at home all day typing, so it give me some more self esteem.

Foreigners Sales Tax Exempt?Feb 25, 2014
My daughter just got a part-time job at a local store that is owned by a group of foreigners that own just about everything in town. They gave her a tax exempt card that they told her was her personal card and she could use it on anything she so chose. They even told her how much money she could save on taxes when she gets ready to buy a car. I am VERY confused. I mean, I thought only state agencies or charity organizations were sales tax exempt. Anyone know what pe ...
Update On My EBay SalesAug 05, 2015
Hello. It's been at least a year since I wrote several posts regarding making extra money by selling on eBay. I haven't been back here in so long, and yet I still see many struggling. When I first started selling, my initial goal was to at least be able to pay my utilities with my eBay money. Then it became paying my rent. My rent is $845. For the month of July (which is the S-L-O-W time on eBay), I had gross sales of $843. Now, eBay and PayPal took their 13.5% cut (combined ...
