  1. welcome to the site. post up some pics
  2. kris kyle would be rolling over in his grave right now if it were true that a company he set up, was providing 'mercenaries' to assist with acts of terror on our own citizens. that would literally go against everything that guy stood for.
  3. i don't give out a ton of medical advice, because if i do, i'm held liable for it. who knows if the same applies here, but it could certainly be made worth a lawyer's time to find out.
  4. Nope just a younger brother. Thanks for the comments guys.
  5. Huge upgrade with the new wheels. Diggin in.
  6. Thanks guys. This thing is not going to see the type of usage a pro puts it through, but I won't get hung up if the top scratches. I'll have to get sme pics of the gtr next to it. Maybe a couple of the wife
  7. ever have a wife that has stupid ass designer clothes parties?? yeah, my wife goes to those all the time. i decided to have a tool party. i know the two snap-on guys in town and we ended up inviting about 30 guys over for beer, cars, pizza/bbq, and tools. they told me they had a toolbox to match the color of my gtr. before i could get my hands on it, someone else bought it. they gave me some story about how they couldn't get another. turns out my wife bought it for me its a snap on epic 76" tool box. the top two drawers are full width. can't believe how heavy this beast is. anyways, here's the pics http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/1424/dsc00599b.jpg http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/8353/dsc00601ao.jpg http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/9075/dsc00600au.jpg http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/933/dsc00603ie.jpg
  8. My wife was in the exact same area with a huge backpack the whole race. If her picture was posted, we would quickly cooperate with authorities, and clear her name. No lawsuit necessary. And everyone would know how hot my wife is
  9. Meh. It's not going to ruin his life. Any forum I'm on knows it was a mistake. Sure, the media sucks from time to time. Yeah, they try to 'jump' stories and be the first to report. But it's the only way we're going to see a picture of the suspects. Unless we go around putting 'have you seen these two?' Pictures on every telephone pole in the u.s. Everyone is sue-happy. I've already forgotten about the falsely accused men, and so will everyone else in a matter of hours with the newly released pics
  10. understood, and agreed upon. i'm likely to see a thread like this, watch the video, and go out and look up what an AR is and educate myself. i actually just finished the book 'american sniper'--chris kyle's autobiography. pretty great book, and a good look into firearms and what it takes to be a seal and a sniper. aside from that, i grew up in a very anti-gun household. my father has probably never even held a gun or seen one up close. more americans are like this than not. so when i'm in rome, i do as the romans do. the general public is not likely to educate themselves regarding which weapons are autos, and which are not. the general public will likely never be 'cool' with people just plopping their ass down on a public park bench/playground with an AR15 slung over their shoulder. even if it is completely legal to do so, it is utterly fucking unnecessary. taking a hike in the woods with a shotgun in tote, or seeing a gunrack on the back window of a pickup---yeah, i can see that, and so can most americans.
  11. I am by no means a gun expert. The first one certainly appears to be one. And I'm sure you're trying to make a point that the average American doesn't know what a machine gun is, so I imagine that the second gun has some sort of automatic firing capacity, right? Because the second one appears at first look, to be a non-auto rifle, but what do I know. Hell, the first one could be a paintball gun, for all I know. The point is, when you see someone walking around in public with that, you're going to call it in. You're not going to go up and inspect to see what type of gun it is, or check the person's ccw papers, or inquire as to why they're carrying that type of gun
  12. There are several possible reasons. Many people can pass all the necessary background checks, yet make a bad decision with a firearm in a very public place--putting others at risk. What are the chances of getting in a physical confrontation in your adult lifetime? If you carry all the time, you're going to pull out a firearm every time you feel physically threatened? Back down every time? Automotive forums are a very skewed population. Virtually everyone on these forums is an advocate of conceal carry. Many carry on a regular basis. Yet when someone posts a video of some altercation/fight/etc on YouTube, there's NEVER agreement on what constitutes a threat substantial enough to use deadly force. When I see a person with a gun in public I immediately have to make a decision based on gut instincts:: Is it for protection, or violence? Do I know they're carrying legally? Is the gun loaded? If they slip and fall, is the gun going to discharge? Crazy, i know--but i see some of the dumbest possible injuries in my line of work. Assuming someone with a gun knows how to use it and is going to be 100% responsible with it is an assumption I will never make, unless I know the person. That being said, I own a shotgun for home defense, and am slowly getting into hunting. But the idea of walking around with a machine gun in public (just because you can) is asinine, and not helping any 'pro-gun' campaign.
  13. +1 I see someone in public with a gun like that and I will call the police every time. So would anyone with half a brain. If you're deep in the woods hunting, different story. People like this are activists/extremists. He's not carrying that fucking gun to shoot a feral pig. He's carrying it to make a point, to be noticed carrying a gun by the public, and to challenge anyone who tries to take away his rights. For people like me, who are still somewhat on-the-fence regarding conceal-carry laws, this is a huge turnoff. Disagree with me all you want, but that is how the general public feels.
  14. The citizen was being a fucking cocksucker. Plain and simple. He's shocked the police station got multiple calls of a guy walking around with what looks to be a machine gun? Of course the police are going to investigate it. Cockbags like this do nothing but hurt the cause for conceal carry laws.
  15. crazy. was it just me, or did it seem like some of those cars just went grocery shopping before racing?? crap flying everywhere from the interior of the car when they rolled.
  16. +1 my wife is an ICU nurse. she could have easily run to the scene to help out. my advice::: get the fuck out, now!! its not like you're the first responder to a car crash. there's a huge likelihood of further bombs/etc. there were plenty of police officers, paramedics, first responders there to manage the situation. no need to risk dying. the reporters---they're doing what they're trained to do. gather information, document everything, and basically stay out of the way.
  17. i'm sure you can imagine from personal experience. back when i was a medical resident, i would have killed to make in a year, what i just paid.
  18. wife just landed in milwaukee. thank god she's out of there. she was standing right where the explosion was 5 minutes before it went off, and left to see her friend at the finish line.
  19. Fucked up. My wife was less than 100 feet away at the finish line. Thank god she's ok
  20. 2 cup holders and 3 times the hp. No first aid kit included. No tampon included. :fuckyeah:
  21. But it's sooooooo well balanced. Perfect width and turning radius for Starbucks drive thrus Sounds cool. Until they said 180 hp.
  22. DR. rick calling all the way from hawaii to crack your back?? lol
  23. LOL. next vehicle for me is going to be a toy-hauler. probably going to get an ecoboost f-150 and then wait until the next zr1 comes out. i've always loved the way these isf's look. even the exhaust tips, which most people hate
