  1. Doesn't matter much. America has too many guns. A stupid amount of guns. That bus has left the station and it ain't coming back. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  2. Most of us have no clue what laws you are talking about..... Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  3. Not personal experience. watched others die from it. Why are you asking in the General Skydiving Discussion Forum? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  4. That's your problem right there. You did not follow though and consolidate your learning. Because of that it now counts for nothing. The DZ has no real choice but to treat you as a new student. If you had a license they would probably still require many recurrency jumps with an instructor. Possibly nearly equivalent to AFF anyway. Depending on how you did.

  5. Yes, not really all that relevant. USPA could do that. But they believe otherwise, so why would they? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  6. I don't know what your results will be. But do be aware that skydiving has no redeeming social or therapeutic value whatsoever. I know because I read it in a drop zone legal waiver once. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  7. Well....That sent me to Google. Your American French is much better than my Canadian French. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  8. Thank you so much. I've learned so much from you. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  9. Yes, money can buy all the good things in life. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  10. Ha! Who is being alarmist now? Marc is! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  11. If your rigger does not have a better reason than just the age I would look for another rigger. If your rigger is not equipped to do a pull test I would look for another rigger. You are not the first person here who has had trouble contacting Precision. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  12. Do you have any more Tryphorgetin left? In a few short months you will have a brand new President to hate. Tryphorgetin her then! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  13. And, IIRC President Jimmie Carter refused entrance to the U.S. by Iranians during the Hostage Crisis. There are some precedents to Trump's outlandish statements. Even Iranian Christians I suppose. http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/article/2015/dec/17/why-trumps-muslim-ban-idea-isnt-really-same-jimmy-/ • Carter acted against Iranian nationals, not an entire religion. "The difference is that Iranians were citizens of, and owed allegiance to, a country that was acting against the United States," said Kermit Roosevelt, a law professor at the University of Pennsylvania. "The class of ‘all Muslims’ has no similar connection to ISIS or terrorists. That makes the analogy seriously flawed." Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  14. I don't know, and I'm to lazy to research it for you. But i do know that it did not work. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  15. Trump and Cruz, who would have believed a year ago that these two would be the ones left standing? The very worst the GOP has to offer. It is astounding. Rock bottom? We don't know yet just how far these two can drag the party into the gutter. If you study history I'm sure you can find fights as nasty as this is going to be. But not in living memory.

  16. I think I know what you are trying to say, but perhaps hedonism is not the exact word to use. Unless of course you are referring to a particular group of humans as "primordial shit"? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  17. You are equally wrong to denigrate the belief that life is a mystery. Just because someone does not believe in God does not mean they they think life is devoid of meaning. Nothing matters and anything goes is only your interpretation of Atheism. I assure you it is not the general view of Atheists. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  18. The Christ myth is one of humanity's most beautiful stories. Just because someone knows that it is false is no reason to denigrate someone else's belief in it. Everyone has to believe something. I had also forgotten that it is Good Friday. Enjoy your celebration of the life of Christ.

  19. That's funny - you'll sit there on your high horse and say that calling someone a pollack if "fucking offensive!" But you have no problem shitting all over a "prepper". You know Wendy, I think abortion is "fucking offensive," but you don't give a shit about that, do you? - so fuck your little list of offensive words and your self righteous hypocritical bullshit. Do you understand the difference between an ethnic group and a group with similar behaviors? One is born that way, the other makes a choice. As a general rule it's fair game to make fun of people's choices. Wendy has always shown respect for the views of anti-choicers. And I don't see how anyone can not find humour in the whole "prepper" thing. It's hilarious. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  20. That's pretty much the Wahabi view of the modern world as well. Progress is bad, God hates progress. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  21. Coming to a city near you, probably this summer. Coming from a guy who believes the end times are near, you'll have to forgive me for taking your predictions with more than one grain of salt. Maybe I'll start calling you an "alarmist". Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  22. I guess that is the case now with you people. My generation was more clear. There are plenty of normal healthy people of your generation. They just aren't all hiding out in the forest with you. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  23. You are definitely on a roll this morning. Your anger and fear is coming through more clearly than usual. So out of all your comments, I had to choose one, and this is it. When was the last time you were on a DZ? Or by "on the DZ" do you mean here? Either way, ridiculously untrue. Have you been taking lessons from The Donald?
