  1. Federal workers have had collective bargaining taken away from them for over thirty years, yet they seem to be doing okay. It may feel good to take away the collective bargaining agreement for Ohio workers but I would guess it gets perverted into something that makes no significant difference just like it didn't with the federal employees. When you have complicit politicians giving away money they don't earn and don't have to answer to a bottom line government contracts will always give away more than a responsible business owner would who cares about the longevity of their company. Hell we can leave out a business owner and just make it a person responsible for a household worrying about its budget. There is no way they are going to overpay for services as well.
  2. I have let a buyer ride a bike I was selling. I showed him the title and he showed me the money, that way we both knew that we were able to do business with each other. I then got a deposit from him and put it in my pocket that was enough to cover my deductable if anything went wrong. I knew from talking to him prior to him getting to my house he had ridden a bike before and the gear he had to take the test ride only assured me that I was right. I was selling a ZX12R and at the time I had a ZX6R as well so I took him for a ride around my area. I didn't think he could get away too far from me being in an unfamiliar area.
  3. If you are okay with lowering a Ninja 250 and are okay with the power one puts out I would suggest a scooter for an alternative. We went the Ninja 250 route and I enjoyed it but she didn't. She rides the scooter without issue and is confident in what she is doing. A scooter takes away most of the new rider overload with the clutch and gear changes taken out of the equation. The 250 scooter we have will keep up with a Ninja 250 and handle so close to its capabilities that we gave up nothing. I understand that you are a Kawi fan but if you are too cool for a scooter I would suggest taking a serious look at the Honda 250. It is easier to adjust the ride height and will not affect the handling as much as it will the Ninja.
  4. I quoted what I heard you say and apparently was correct. Your definition of a bad representative may not be someone else’s. This may be why people keep getting elected to represent those same people who keep voting for the bad representatives.
  5. So you're okay with your guy staying in office forever but you don't want someone else’s guy doing it. Or is it okay as long as we don’t pay them too much?
  6. Just out of curiosity, if it doesn't really clamp currently and is functioning what issue will be solved by redesigning one that clamps? I don’t doubt you expect to see an improvement but what are you expecting to gain?
  7. Ron Paul doesn't agree with pay raises and he doesn't agree with term limits. Which is more important?
  8. Most 1/4" cutters that you can get any speed and rigidity out of only have 3/4" of flute. I don't know how thick your part is but you may want to increase your minimum radii to a standard cutter with a flute length long enough to cut through the part if that is your intention.
  9. I would run a horizontal 1/4" rib in the middle of the enlightening cut outs. Finite Element Analysis.
  10. I agree that's why I feel sorry for the old lady. She was tricked into making the commercial in the first place by some shady people who had their own agenda and used her to promote it. Others have used her words to show the truth about the consequences of being lied to by the shady people.
  11. Aren't you already used to being a second class citizen?
  12. Where has it been determined that what was done is illegal? I see it as just correcting a misconception that the old lady had with the correct interpretation of the outcome.
  13. In very rare instances can someone capable of believing in a fairy tale for their reality also have the ability to engage in a rational discussion but you already know that. Have fun trolling the delusional.
  14. Forced into it at risk of being put out of business. It was a poor social experiment that didn't work. People who had money were forced to lend it at a risk they weren't going to accept so they packaged the risk and sold it to others. Smart money on their part and the results were very predictable. All of this could have been avoided if the government wouldn't have had the power to interfere with business and make sure poor people who shouldn't or couldn't afford a house got one. The risks shouldn't have been forced onto the banks and the banks end running the risk was the only option they had to protect themselves. In the end the government had to bail out a problem they created and we paid for. Had they been up front about their social experiment and subsidized the loans up front the political backlash from that decision would have prevented the whole mess.
  15. Beat me to it. Wait until you see their new model for Glocks they are coming out with.

  18. I'm trying to talk one of the other black guys on here out of his 27 for some leathers and cash but I really don't want it, I would prefer the 26. You need that 27 to match your 23 if I can get it away from him of course I will take the 26 off of your hands for it.
  19. Not a chance. They were made for the best handgun platform out there. You second class citizens don't matter.
  20. I have prototypes in my hand as I type. Finished product will be for sale in about a month. I know you are owed one and it will be on its way as soon as the product launches. Safariland makes a very nice retention holster but I find zero need for one if carrying concealed. Look at Raven Concealment if you are looking for a nice holster that won't let your sidearm loose on a bike, they can add positive retention as an option but not needed for non LE. Made me laugh! Is re-holstering hands on part of the instruction?
  21. Didn't he say he was looking for a full size firearm? Friends don't let friends use a Serpa. They are only good for, well I can't think of anything they are good for. If positive retention is a must I would suggest a safariland. For most people who carry concealed and don't intend to detain anyone retention is retarded.
