What have they done that was illegal? Simply protesting and showing their signs isn't illegal. They are just using their free speech, the same free speech that so many American's (and some who weren't) have died to protect. If they do something illegal, then yes they need to be held accountable for their actions. I wholeheartedly think they are lower than scum and what they say is absolutely disgraceful. But how can you say "We should slash their tires, burn them at the stake, etc, etc" when it is okay for someone else to say "Bush/Obama is a freaking idiot and ruined the country"? Both are using the same freedoms to voice their opinions. Use your freedom of speech to defend what Westboro speaks out against. Go counter protest where they are protesting. Cool. But to lower your standards and perform illegal acts makes you worse then them. People talk about making it illegal to protest military funerals. You don't think that is a violation of their rights? That's just being hypocritical and shows you don't truly understand what is going on. This is why I like the Patriot Guard Riders. They don't agree with what they do but they let them do it. They just make sure they stand guard between the protesters and the families and guarantee that they will keep them safe. That's an awesome feeling; a true showing of love, understanding, restraint and honor. François-Marie Arouet (21 November 1694 – 30 May 1778 /rant3 points

First off let me introduce myself my name is Kyle Armbruster and I live in Grove City, Ohio. I am 24 years old and am currently a 5th year senior at OSU. I am one of those DIY car guys I used to have a built RSX-S with 420whp I have have been into cars my whole life and I have learned most of what i know from my dad and friends from forums. Previous Project http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/107.jpg http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/096.jpg I currently have a 2002 Subaru WRX that I am currently modding and is my current project car. I bought it about 2 months ago, and it had already installed: Walboro 255 fuel pump, STI Injectors, and a Turbo XS down pipe, with a TurboXS UTEC piggyback ECU System and Tein coilovers. When I bought it http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/111.jpg What I have done to it since then... I have added a FMIC with a Tial Q BOV, relocated the coolant, battery, and the windshield washier fluid, added oil temp/pressure gauges and a boost gauge. The FMIC was from CXRACING and a huge PITA I had to do A LOT of fabricating which took me about 4-5 hours by myself, but also saved me roughly $600. In the end I think it turned out very good and works very well. The original boost gauge was in bars and I did not like trying to read that. So I replaced it. Relocated Battery and Washer Fluid http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/129.jpg http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/127.jpg http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/128.jpg Gauges http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/131.jpg FMIC came in! http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/130.jpg Installed http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/134.jpg Engine Bay http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp346/sportsking80/My%20DC5/IMG_0338.jpg Going to be doing some wire clean up tomorrow all day to clean up the engine bay since the install. There are many future plans in store for this car that I will keep updating as I go. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I am looking forward to meeting lots of people on here. Thanks, and if you ever need any help or have any questions please feel free to ask anytime I can normally answer them. If you need someone to come out and help with a project, I am always down.1 point

this thread is ridiculous. i disagree what these people say so lets slash their tires, shove them off a cliff, set their shit on fire, and stone them.... seriously? i dont agree with anything about WBC in the slightest, but christ people, this is america, not some backwater third world country where we stone people we don't like. this is just the kind of stuff they WANT to happen. stop feeding the trolls. kawikid seems to be the only one with his head on straight.1 point

The video is reason #6,493,583 why Tom Selleck is the man. Also having now read through the entire thread, we've not learned anything except some people have been in some shit, and were glad they had guns. Some were in some shit, and didn't need guns. Some people avoided the shit, and we all agree that a little black on black lesbian 69 is the shit. My two cents: When I was 18 I collapsed both of my lungs, one and then the other. A few weeks after I got out of the hospital, I was out seeing a movie with some friends. We were walking to our cars, and some guys started giving me shit. So I flipped them off, they circled around and tried to block my car in, but the spot in front of mine was open, so I flipped them off again, pulled through and drove over to the restaurant. They followed me over, and started circling the parking lot. One came in and threatened to kick our asses. But then they left when they realized how many were in my group. When I told my dad the story, I mentioned I was worried about being unarmed and still recovering from the surgery, he stopped me and said: "You've got any number of things you can use as a weapon. From your hands and feet to your keys to the tire iron in your trunk." That stuck with me; that I'm never unarmed. And if I am, it means I can't reach something, and I have no arms, legs, teeth or a head. Dad also told me, I should never get into a fight, but if it happens hit first, hit hard and hit to win. In those situations, there's no reason to fight fair. Second story: I'm a bartender, and a customer asked me what I would do if someone got out of hand. "Keep them from getting out of hand" was my response. "But what if they freak out? And they come after you?" "Then they get a liquor bottle to the head." I've only had two fights almost start while I was bartending. I stopped both of them before they could happen because I was paying attention to what was going on. I've had one guy get in my face, and he wouldn't back down until I quietly asked him if he was willing to go to jail over a $2.00 beer. He walked out after that and I've never seen him since. Most of the time nothing happens, because I'm always watching and making sure everyone is having a good time. I had one potentially bad situation, when there was only me and one customer, and he had that "look." 1000rrrider is right, some people just have a look. Whatever it was something bothered me about him. So I started talking to him as much as possible, maintained a lot of eye contact, and made sure my body language didn't say "please, murder me in a grotesque satanic ritual of some kind." He had a beer, and then left. I can't remember if he tipped or not. I guess all I'm saying is this: Being aware of what's going on around you is a big part of staying safe, whoever said they don't listen to anything when they go walking so they can hear what's going on around them is smart. Staying calm and confident helps quite a bit as well when you need to diffuse a situation. But sometimes things just go wrong. In those situations, you have to act. If that means using a gun, then use the gun. But be prepared for the consequences, and more importantly be prepared to accept them. To the OP, you're doing the right thing though, just thinking about why and when you might need a gun. You have to figure it out for yourself. On another note: Supposedly, Siam warriors had a perch on their armor for a cat. When they rushed an enemy they would fling the cat at an enemies face. Either the enemy had to swing their weapon at the cat, which left him vulnerable or he caught a face full of pissed off Siamese claws and fangs. Either way, they were distracted long enough for a Siam warrior to close the distance and then kill the distracted warrior. Again:1 point

Probably not the comment you want to hear, but part of the issue is your attitude; after reading your comments on youtube its obvious you are expecting people to drive correctly including yielding when they should. When riding a bike, you need to ride with the exact opposite attitude, if you want to stay alive that is. Your comment here is what I am referring to..."I saw the cars coming, but I knew they had to yield" An attitude like that will get you killed! You have to ride with the expectation that.... - the car will NOT yield - the car WILL come in your lane - the car WILL turn in front of you - the car did NOT see you I am not condoning the actions of the drivers in your video, just my thoughts.1 point
