My father used to tell me that when he was younger, cars could not back up going uphill. Of course, there's nothing better than distributors without points or fuel ignition rather than carburetors. I won't even get into tubeless tires, power steering or power brakes.
>>>>Ah! Slightly different than the side oiler kit that I had to put on the 312 engine I had because it did not get sufficient lub to the rocker arms Simply due to a common flaw in the block casting. Not really a pretty design. >>>> your observations are all true but hardly germane. The electoral college is weighted exactly the same as is Congress, state by state on everything they vote on. Two votes for each State in the Senate and the house has representatives according to population of each state. I think it was a wise choice, insightful even. However, if you think it is similar to a model T, then there is a route to change. But I only hear the whine, I never see any action to affect a change.
My reply had no "abhorrent" thought implied. If you read your initial statement closely, there is indication you believe the society each of those Marxist/Fascist leaders governed were to blame for actions taken. The point of my posting that image was to illustrate what happens when central governments succeed in depriving the populace of the right to individual preservation and liberty by denying the means to defend themselves.
I’m doing my best to stay out of an unwinnable debate, but of all the words I’ve seen written on the gun argument coupled with the students protesting, I personally thought this was one of the more accurate.....or at least reasonably accurate opinions I’ve run across recently....... http://theweek.com/articles/763469/parkland-kids-have-triggered-conservative-snowflakes
You clearly have no idea what you are even talking about. Educate yourself and make Google your teacher.
Or possibly he is just morally superior to those who had no problem slaughtering strangers in a strange land for Standard Oil? There was a draft, and there were few options for avoiding it. I grew up facing the fact I was going to be forced to kill or be killed simply for a corporation's profit line. My options to avoid it were go to prison or flee the country and never be allowed to return. Trump, Clinton and other rich people had better options and took them. Smart. I lucked out, was never drafted, Standard Oil lost their war big time, the domino theory turned out to be nonsense and the rest is history.
Morally superior? Donald Trump? Now that's one of the funniest things I have heard. I'm not sure if he is even morally superior to Charles Manson. The guy has been a criminal most of his life and has used his money and bullying tactics to screw people over. The guy is an ass with no class.
Just to be clear... You are telling us a Socialist British publication, which cares not about the history and intent of our Bill of Rights, aligns with your feelings on this matter.
I tried to read it and saw snowflake and quit. The only other thing that turns me off more is clap back....ughhh
The right to defend yourself would be protected. You just can't spray the place with endless firepower.
I understand. Unfortunately, I did take the time to read the article in question. The accusations against those in support of 2nd Amendment principles were straight out of Saul Alinsky's book Rules for Radicals. Alinsky was a devout student of Karl Marx and a self proclaimed "Community Organizer"... (gee, where have we heard that before)... that made it his life goal to place our U.S. Constitution into the trash bin of historical writings.
I’m not aware of the Alinsky tie in. I simply believe that as times and situations change, laws and rules should be evaluated accordingly and, if applicable, adjusted to meet the realty those changes have created. Nothing more, nothing less. The NRA doesn’t want to have a dialogue of any kind, and as far as I personally am concerned, that is unacceptable and dishonest. I just felt the article pretty much summed up my own feelings. Having said all that, do I expect anything to really change on “gun control” any time soon? Hell no. Same shit, different day (and school).
That statement is absolutely absurd for two primary reasons. 1. I have every right as a citizen in good standing to defend my family, myself and any other person who may be in mortal danger with any tool equal to that available to the adversary. 2. No where have I indicated that spraying (which is lifted from "spray and pray" in the foliage) unaccounted rounds was a good tactical or prudent operation of equipment. By the way... there is no such thing as endless firepower.
