Power Corrupts.

That sure is a funny-looking SKS.....

Wow, sounds like the drunk bastards were friends of Cop Sooto. Why oh why do police have to be so corrupt. Sorry you good LEO's out there, maybe you should be policing your brothers in blue, I know it's a brotherhood and you really don't want to do-in your own, but you're here to PROTECT and to SERVE, not to COVER UP and KISS ASS.
Seems the bad cops outweigh the good cops in Hawaii, and no, I don't ever plan on going there now. bastards.
LEO are corrupt because they have power over the ordinary citizens. Power corrupts.
"Protect and Serve" is more like a business slogan than it is a factual pledge.
Furthermore, the police have no obligations to protect us.
The Police are State-run organizations, and the Constitution is very clear on the subject of the State interfering with a free citizenry: It tells the State to keep out of our lives.
Kind of interesting when you note all the bureaucrats trying to take your guns away from you by feeding you the line of bullshiite that the cops are there to protect you, so you don't need your guns anymore, isn't it?
I say this: I used to trust cops, but I will never make that mistake again. That badge, for a large part, taints very easily.
This Sooto character was probably related to the gorilla and his friends, so this really doesn't surprise me when I read the original posting.
Sounds like Hawaii is more like Moscowchussetts than I ever thought possible.

Oh, Yeah? I have the right to be a Christian, but I'm either not allowed to or looked down upon whenever I want/do pray inside city facilities.
Go grab a tissue, pal.

No, not 'Cheap' as in cost, but 'cheap' as in quality.
That was my point. Sorry about that; I should have clarified.

As long as they work, I can't see anything wrong with them, "cheap" as they may seem to some.

So I took a chance and bought a $30 Promag 30 rd. Magazine for my .223 and it cycled freely. It seems nice, just a bit too loose in the side-to-side play.
What are your experiences?

Gay protection tacked onto defense bill

September 28, 2007
The Democrat-led Senate yesterday adopted legislation giving homosexuals additional protections under federal hate-crime laws, attaching the measure to the defense authorization bill and daring President Bush to veto it as promised.
"The president of the United States has never vetoed, in the history of the United States, a defense authorization bill," said Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, Massachusetts Democrat and chief sponsor of the amendment. "For this reason and for many others ... the defense authorization deserves to be passed [into law]."
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said the measure only served to jeopardize the entire bill, including military pay raises, funds for wounded veterans and other popular programs.
"Do we want to protect the defense policy matters in this bill that actually matter to our forces in the field, or do we want to debate political and social issues on this measure?" the Kentucky Republican said in floor debate before the votes.
The amendment, which charges the Justice Department with investigating crimes potentially motivated by sexual orientation as it can for crimes considered racially or religiously motivated, passed on a voice vote after the chamber voted 60-39 to end a filibuster. Forty-nine Democrats, nine Republicans and two independents provided the required 60 votes to proceed to final consideration.
Mr. Kennedy and supporters of the measure, similar to three versions that have failed in the past decade, likened hate crimes to terrorism and said the defense bill is a perfect fit for it.
"The defense authorization is about dealing with the challenges of terrorism overseas. ... This [bill] is about terrorism in our neighborhood," Mr. Kennedy said.
The White House said the bill makes federal crimes out of acts that already are against the law and might violate the Constitution.

If you want to hang a different flag, hang it UNDER the American Flag!
It drives me nuts & bolts seeing the fragging Mexican flag hanging all over this country with no respect for the Stars & Stripes.
Makes me want to burn every damn Mexican flag every Cinco de Mayo.....
IF MEXICO IS SO GREAT, WHY DON'T YOU LIVE THERE!????!?

"A pistol grip also helps the shooter stabilize the firearm during rapid fire and makes it easier to shoot assault rifles one-handed"
Oh yes, so all of us can be Arnold F*cking Schwarzenegger from the first "Terminator" or "Eraser".
Give me a break; anyone ever shot an Assault Rifle(Which has a select-fire receiver, something that the semi-autos don't, which still perplexes me whenever the MSM or anti-gun idiots think that it does) one-handed? Have they? Not bloody likely.

go figure... white kids aren't invited

No, not really...

Congrats, Ranger!
I became a Father April 17, 2004, so as a somewhat new Dad, I totally understand.
The cord cutting was pretty interesting, as it felt very much like fleshy rope; even cut like it. I know that there are those of you out there that will say 'Duh' to that, but it still amazes me.
The moment that it was over for me was when my little girl looked at me the first time. All apprehension that I had felt about being a young Father(23) melted away in an instant. I will never forget that as long as I will live, and I hope all the best for you and your wonderful new family.

"....threatening to bomb Muslim holy sites on national TV is not the way to get Muslims to help us eliminate their radical elements."
But it will eliminate their elements. Listen, the rest of the Muslim community will not help us due to either being fearful of the extreme elements of their faith or the fact that their religion is strictly built upon the death and conquest of anything that is not Islamic.
This religion is not on this planet to play nice with the rest of the population, and most certainly not to be particularly picky as to who and where the infidels(Read: YOU) should feel 'Allah's cleansing wrath', so I certainly do not waver when I believe that we should reciprocate.
As cold and inhuman as I may sound right now, there is something to be said about simply pounding the civilian population into dust, which is, sadly--but true, there can be noone to stand against you if there isn't anyone left. These Islamofacists apparently agree; how many times have you seen strictly military casualty statistics from 9/11 or Iraq, as of late?
Would be the same as the terrorists? Not quite. As near as I can tell, we have been assaulted first. We would merely be striking back, favorably with much more lethality.
"....the only thing Tancredo accomplished with these comments is helping terrorists recruit a few more stupid Muslim teenagers to kill themselves."
See my above statement regarding the civilian population. WWII, as much as any war, proved this point.
-
"if you're one of those people who thinks that Iraq was responsible for or involved in 9/11 then you've listened to too many of Bush's poorly-written speeches and I'm afraid I can't help you."
No, friend. But I am quite aware of the fact that he vowed to fight terrorism wherever it was and whatever face it wore.
Saddam was a terrorist; just not one of the 9/11 terrorists, but one just the same.
If you don't agree with that, then ask any one of the Kurds who are still alive that remember the genocide that Saddam delved in with---let's hear it---chemical weapons of mass destruction.
Still think that was part of a poorly-written Bush speech?
Look, I may not be a big of a fan of Bush as I was, say, four years ago, but for the most part, he and our Intel were correct about Saddam.

Reading about Barnaul has me wondering: where is this company's quality in comparison to, say, Wolf.
Would it be worth pursuing this company for ammunition needs?

I find is extraordinarily fascinating that little mister basher-of-all-that-is-Bush-and-Iraq is willing---nay, obliging---to send U.S. forces into Pakistan, in a unilateral military action, without permission from anyone, to go after people with histories of terrorist activities.
Doesn't that sound just a tad familiar? And wasn't there a giant cry of outrage from the people, both political and public, over such an action?
Hmmm.......

WASHINGTON - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, under attack from a rival who portrays him as naive on foreign policy, declared Wednesday that he would use military force against Al Qaeda operatives hiding in tribal areas of Pakistan if that nation did not move more aggressively against them first.
The Illinois senator said he would take military action as president, if necessary, despite the risk of undercutting Pakistan's leader, President Pervez Musharraf, an important American ally.
"I understand that President Musharraf has his own challenges," Obama said. "But let me make this clear. There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again. ... If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf will not act, we will."
Obama delivered the warning in a speech on counterterrorism policy at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, a think tank in Washington.
Obama outlined strong views on a foreign policy issue at a time when his chief rival in early presidential polling, Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.), has sought to depict him as naive in international affairs after Obama indicated he would be willing to negotiate with foreign dictators that the U.S. has shunned.
His declaration also followed revelations last month that the Bush administration made a last-minute decision in 2005 to abort a special forces raid to capture senior Al Qaeda leaders in Pakistan's tribal areas amid fears the operation might jeopardize relations with Pakistan. The disclosure stirred criticism of the White House, and in his speech Obama called the decision to abort "a terrible mistake."
A national intelligence assessment recently made public concluded that Al Qaeda is reconstituting itself in the remote region of Pakistan and gaining strength, including setting up training camps.
The Bush administration has followed a delicate strategy in Pakistan. The White House has prodded Musharraf, a key ally in the struggle against the Taliban, to take stronger steps against terrorist havens while also taking care not to undermine a leader who maintains a tenuous hold on power and faces an internal challenge from Islamic fundamentalists.
Events this summer have underscored Musharraf's shaky position. An attempt by the Pakistani president to dismiss the Supreme Court chief justice stirred violent riots and moved the court's full membership to overrule the president in a politically damaging rebuff. Islamic fundamentalists took control of the capital city's Red Mosque until they were ousted through a bloody military raid. That raid in turn prompted a series of suicide bombings against the Pakistani government.
Obama said he would make continued military aid to Pakistan conditional on a more aggressive Pakistani army offensive against Al Qaeda followers who have retreated to a region along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in which local tribes operate virtually free of central government authority.
"I would make our conditions clear: Pakistan must make substantial progress in closing down the training camps, evicting foreign fighters and preventing the Taliban from using Pakistan as a staging area for attacks in Afghanistan," Obama said.
White House defends strategy
White House spokesman Tony Snow defended the Bush administration's strategy in Pakistan. "We think that our approach to Pakistan is not only one that respects the sovereignty of Pakistan, but also is designed so that we are working in cooperation," Snow said.
"Gen. Musharraf, President Musharraf, is clearly somebody who has chips in the game here," added Snow, who noted that the Pakistani leader has been the target of multiple assassination attempts.
Still, in an action that many observers read as a tilt by the Bush administration toward a military strike, White House homeland security adviser Frances Townsend pointedly declined to rule out the option in a television interview in late July, stirring a chorus of protests in Pakistan.
Clinton said in a radio interview later in the day that she also would not hesitate to attack Al Qaeda targets on Pakistani territory.
"If we had actionable intelligence that Osama bin Laden or other high-value targets were in Pakistan I would ensure that they were targeted and killed or captured. And that will be my highest priority because they pose the highest threat to America," Clinton told American Urban Radio Networks.
But two of Obama's other Democratic rivals expressed skepticism at his pronouncements Wednesday. It's understood that the U.S. might have to go into Pakistan under some circumstances, said Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, but that is not something to discuss publicly for fear of undermining Musharraf.
"The way to deal with it is not to announce it, it's to do it," Biden said at the National Press Club, suggesting Obama's comments reflected inexperience. "It's not something you talk about; as president, it's something I would do."
Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.), also a longtime member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, echoed the criticism.
Analyst: Blow to Musharraf
Teresita Schaffer, a former State Department official with responsibility for the region and now director of the South Asia program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said that an overt U.S. military strike inside Pakistani territory would be a particular blow to Musharraf, who is a military leader, and could well lead to his ouster. It also would bolster leaders hostile to the United States in both the struggle for national leadership and local control of the tribal areas, she said.
"Once you have made that kind of operation, everything connected to the United States, even more than before, is believed to be the enemy," Schaffer said. "You've probably created a safe haven that works even better than before."

"It's pretty simple," Gerard said. "Fireworks are incendiary in nature. If we were to not allow any fireworks, we'd have fewer fires."
Oh please. What next? We ban lighters and matches? There sure would be less fires then too. What idiots.
Yes. And, while we're at it, let's ban Heavy Thunderstorms, too. Then, there will be less flooding.

That sounds like Kelsow from 'That 70s Show'.......
By the way, I feel for you, man. Every time I go to Wally-World for 9mm, the same long-haired douche behind the counter looks at the 100 rd. pack and asks: "Is this for a pistol?"
Once I even humored myself by replying that it was, in fact, for my AK-47.
Boy, that suspicious sidelong glance is enough to want to brick the bastard in the head with the ammo.
