  1. i'm reading this in my bunk in a truck stop right now. I must say it's been many years since I've seen a lot lizard. You will find them only at truck stops in large cities. Just for the record I don't feel insulted at all.

    I'm saying that you don't know if this is a hate crime or not, but either way, it appears to be by the hands of an angry foreigner and not the "white trash" that you hoped it was.



    I can sort of see the point you claim to be making. You picked a very poor way to make it. It's hard to tell if you did that on purpose or not.

    ***Yes, unfortunately. We are not immune.



    Maybe you guys should be more careful about letting in angry foreigners from the eastern world.


    Go back a few decades. That's what Anglo people said and felt about Jews, Irish, Ukrainians, etc. Are you channeling Despicable Donald?

  8. If you are going to mark them at all, you just need to mark the Ds. The As and Bs are easy to see. Some people have a hard time telling the Cs from the Ds. Black sharpie on the D attachment tapes should take care of that.

  9. In the old days these kind of comments weren't trolls. They were just chirping noises coming from the peanut gallery. Usually with a sideways look at things. A little superficial, mostly irrelevant, but occasionally with a glimmer of wisdom. The Turtle sometimes brings us something worth reading, but mostly not. Which is true of most of us.

    It is those who think as you do who are creating this stinking turd stew we are starting to live in.



    Not only is your glass only half full, it's got a slow leak as well. Sucks to be you.

  12. I'm just learning this stuff myself. We ran some off season Groupons. Thinking that it would only get promoted to people who use the groupon site. Wrong. If you Google skydive in my area, the first thing that pops up is the Groupon deal, or the competitor's Groupon deal. We canceled it, and I think they may have as well for the season. But now people phone and ask when the special is coming back. Even though the deal was only for a short time and is now gone. Customers are now trained to wait for the next deal. I don't think we will be drinking that Kool-Aid again.

    Satan's work in the feminist movement and before that Playboy and Penthouse.




    God told me that She is very happy with the results of the feminist movement.

  15. Thank you. A compliment from you brightens my day a lot. But that's enough for now. I'm off to the DZ to pump some more CO2 into the air now.

    and there is not a different interpretation of the 2nd.



    Not yet. But if the R's keep nominating unelectable idiots like Trump there soon may be.

    ************True, another difference is there is no constitutional protection for canopy choice.




    Yes, very true. I wonder if the extremely intelligent right wing and NRA would support an amendment forbidding Muslims from owning guns? Stupid lefties would probably object though, so I guess you better arm up and keep your eyes open for middle eastern looking men.

    Right wingers, as call them, would support that


    But apparently they won't support a ban on people who are on the threat/no fly list getting weapons. Something about due process and such. Maybe you support the bacon eating test instead?

    Do you know how those lists are generated?? Hell, a sitting US Senator found himself on the no fly list!

    Same for the terror list.

    So, you support banning gun purchases to people who have no current legal recourse to get themselves off those lists!

    The Senate Republicans would agree to the terror list IF the Democrats agreed to a use the bill to provide legal recourse to someone who finds themselves on these lists.

    The Dems refused.

    Did the fall off that sanctimonious high horse of yours hurt???


    No, I would be more likely to favour a different interpretation of the 2nd amendment if it were up to me. I would restrict weapons equally. Just pointing out that a religious test would not follow due process either. As in the current bacon test meme that is circulating.

    And no, I did not fall. I climbed down, drew my sword, slayed my enemy, and got back up on my high horse. Hi-ho Silver....away.....!

  19. I said in another thread that an amendment is needed to deny gun rights to Muslims, but the left would object. It seems maybe the left would support such a thing now. Oy vey, I can't get it straight or keep up. It's so confusing.

    Just to be clear here, the comment about denying guns to Muslims was tongue-in-cheek. No need to flame me for discrimination, save it for the Trumpeteers.

    ***Wuffos, just like wuffos.



    Like Wuffos who want to legislate what type of canopy you can jump.

    Sort of. Except the type of canopy I jump is never ever going to be used in a mass murder. That is one small difference.

    ***This sounds like it has about the same validity as the Chick-Fil-A story posted today, where a right winger makes shit up then claims "look how stupid lefties are for maybe saying the shit I made up!"

    Yup, I just made the whole thing up.

    And you are so clever. Baiting your trap just so, giving just a little teaser info. You are probably a great hunter as well. It must be a thrill for you when you spring your little "trap". I'm very impressed.

    This article has been going around FB for a couple days with NRA supporters poking fun at the NY writer for over dramatizing his experience with the big bad gun. There is some humour in it.

  24. It is a tough read. I got about 5 minutes into it and stopped when I realized that this is a religious scholar giving a lawyerish take on whether or not it is required that Muslims murder gays. According to their scripture. Apparently he believes it is not. That's good, but it is not nearly enough.

    I don't care what the scholars think. I want Muslims and all others to reject murder because murder is both illegal and wrong under man's laws. I will not settle for any less.

    As usual RushMC is .....well, PA's are discouraged here and it's hard to react to him in a way that is not personal.

  25. All things that I'm well aware of. Terrorists are criminals, criminals are for the most part stupid. Pretending you can fight a "war on terror" like fighting a war against a nation state is also stupid.

    Well worth emphasizing from the article is this:

    "In comparison to homicides in America, deaths from terrorism are statistical noise, barely a blip on a graph compared to the 13,700 homicides a year. "
