    Trigger cranks

    That one is easy, use the existing system. So if I sell you a gun we just walk into the local gun shop. The background check system needs to be changed, you get a license every five years or so to buy a gun...just like a CHL. Hell, the CHL can serve both purposes.

    This guy got his guns legally. So yes, your second sentence works. But getting a mental health evaluation to get a gun is going to be a very hard system to implement. I agree we need to do something like this but it is going to be tough. All of this is a symptom of a much larger problem. America has lost it's way. No one cares about anyone anymore. You see it on the roads, all the road rage..truckers are insane anymore. 10 years ago they were the White Knights of the highway. Mean people everywhere. See it in politics, you either agree with me 100 percent or I hate you. Poverty in this country is off the charts, and no one cares. 'It's your fault, get a job loser.' People that think @Casper should be killed. It's horrible. No idea what the fix is, but it certainly is broken.
  3. They opened the 9th to everyone. Well, everyone that didn't total their bike.
  4. QFT Its a pile on offense. How many infractions can I pile on this guy. That is what happened to Mark.
  5. Changed the oil, couple of big trips coming up.
  6. That's not what they are bitching about. But you knew that.

    New bike

    WTF, dude stole my alter ego screen name.
  8. Less HP, no traction control and would have to buy a new one to get abs. And it wasn't one of the listed choices.
  9. I was really leaning towards the CBR 600RR, then the ZX-6R caught my eye with a slightly larger engine but not too big. 13 and up for the CBR 600 RR because of the better rear suspension and a few extra ponies but I could be talked down to 2009. And that may make sense, save a few bucks and spend it on suspension. Also 13 and up for the ZX-6R, that is when ABS started on those. To be clear, ABS is still mandatory. Slipper clutch will be added to the CBR if I go that route. The Zx has one I believe.

    My kid on TV

    My kid on MTV. Zoey Dollaz and Chris Browns song Post and Delete. Briefly about 45 seconds in and longer at about 245. Not safe for work.
  11. I took an arrow to the knee once. Does that count?
  12. Damn right, cops are trying to kill them.
  13. Blacks are 2.5 times more likely to be shot by police than whites, and half of them are unarmed. Are those the stats you were looking for? And yes, the 2.5 times is adjusted for population.
  14. Damn is that awesome.
  15. Wow, so many supposed conservatives that claim to be all about the Constitution yet ignore it when it doesn't align with their beliefs. The US Flag Code was declared unconstitutional quite some time ago.
  16. And would someone please explain to me when all our Vets turned into Snowflakes.
  17. Sorry you misinterpreted my post, but not surprised.
  18. Perhaps you should read my post again, out loud and slowly.
  19. Exactly. And for them that symbol is starting to represent generations of repression and abandonment. A government that accepts their service in the armed forces and then lets cops walk when they gun them down. No, not as often as the say, but far too often. A government that would rather spend money on tanks or studies of the mating habits of bees than help parentless children. I really think most people's stand on this issue boils down to whether or not they agree with the claims of the black folks. The rest is just justification for their view.
  20. They need to revisit the oath they took when they enlisted. I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; It doesn't say, defend the Constitution when I agree. In fact, they of all people should be condemning Trump for using his office to try and shut this protest down. That is clearly a violation of the First Amendment, at least from a moral standpoint. We should have a beer with my kid, he is a Vet. Thinks the players have every right to do this, and he is one of the more conservative people I know. And I have a question. How exactly should these people protest. If the march they get yelled at for blocking traffic. If the kneel they get yelled at. They can't hold office at least in Ohio because the R's have rigged the Congressional distrcts Theyhave a legit beef on some issues, they have a right to be heard.
