To vote for a lesser evil is compliance IMO... either way, a NY Liberal will be our next Prez.

His goal was to create drama and get attention... he achieved his goal...
lastly, if I allowed bias to guide the hammer, the landscape would look far different..
he got removed for repeated shitty behavior, not bias..

Look, the guy had multiple warnings for trolling... and opened a new thread to simply create drama with one of our vendors and attacked him personally in the general section. Nothing to do with guns or buisness.. just being ugly "because"... this ain't tumbler. Dude is gone..... forever.. moving on..

daaaaaang, im not tryin to be devils advocate, (or get banned myself) but was he that bad? kinda went both ways, mud from both sides.... i guess the commetns about gettin off to a chick that liked guns was rather inappropriate....NEVER MIND,
this isnt really the place for all that, gun owners are typically rather religious inclined, and have strong feelings about stuff.... mainly guns. hahah holy crap thats not descriptive at all....
basically, i guess reddit or the lke is a better place for him?
you are seeing this from a singular event.. there were several warnings for other mods over time for other disruptive behavior..
(a "scientific" trend if you will) My hypothesis is that nothing good could come from the troll as the the behavior was predictable.
Banning was the cure to a continuing problem..

Democrats saying "Democratic Socialism" is different than "regular socialism" is just about the same as "just the tip, baby!"

I'd like to get a functional sword some day but the ones I see don't really catch my attention. I have become a blade snob over the years. My first really nice knife was an emerson cqc7 that I had when I was 18. the chisel edge on that thing was a whole lot different than my hunting knives and utility blades. It got me into other blades like spyderco, benchmade, then microtech and chris reeves. The madness continued into lile randall lee and many other fancy blades the mostly just appreciated and didn't even get used.
I have yet to find a sword that really catches my eyes. I have seen a few online that I like but apparently, I have expensive taste and requirements due to the hunting and fighting knife addiction.
If I did get a sword, I would want to be able to use it somewhat carefully and hopefully have it retain it's value or even appreciate.
The modern ones swords seem pretty cool. Maybe some day I will find one that feels lucky.

Tachi's stopped being produced in the Kamakura Period... though I'm sure plenty were passed down.. Plenty of kats were used in combat during the Meiji period against both Chinese and Russians..
Kat's sizes varied from 28 inch down to 23 inch and back up to 28 over the years..

My best, functional blade is a Paul Chen Musashi sword. I used to be able to stack 2 apples vertically, slice the top one in half without scratching the bottom one, and have the two pieces fall next to it on the table. That was quite a few years ago, though.
I also have a couple of swords I bought at the renaissance faires, the kind they use in the full-contact jousting. None have sharp edges, but they're danged strong!
Oh- the cheap "wall hangers," if decently constructed, are still good for practicing techniques and katas, so long as no cutting or contact is required, and if you should happen to bang it, scratch it or drop it- who cares?
I really like my Hanwei (Paul Chen) swords.. My raptor Unokubi-Zukuri is my fave to cut with. Tied with my Ronin O-Kat..
I like 'em a little longer as the traditional 28" Kat blade is designed for Japanese men vs a 6'3" Magyar..

the Veteran "Bro" code and Vet owned Businesses
in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
Posted
Time to rewrite the "Bro" code when it comes to veteran owned business.. Vet businesses are some of the most giving people on the planet.. help them keep that trend going.. Dudes need to stop being that guy that hit's applebees twice on veterans day... Just sayin'...
I love my fellow Vets.. I WANT to see them succeed.. When I do Wholesale printing I give my "best price".. I have never turned down a brother in need.. and I often get stuck "holding the bag".. Not a huge deal.. all in to help a brother. You get jammed up on 3 or 4 decent sized jobs in a quarter, it jacks your working capital all out of whack.. . The Bro code gets bastardized.. and if were not careful, the term "brother" will mean nothing more than "whore"... It's all about respect...
I did about 1:20 video on it.. FWIW...
