  1. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/mar/19/obama-drops-disputed-vet-medical-plan/ Why was this ever even an idea to generate money?
  2. I guess it just depends on your point of view, I listen to one headphone on my bike at a reasonable level. Most cars are more soundproof now, and individuals listen to their music way louder then I listen to mine on the bike. The level I listen at allows me to still hear every thing over it.
  3. My right eardrum was destroyed in Iraq, so I wear my headphone in my left ear when riding....
  4. From what Kawi says the gasket is to thick and that is why thay now have a smaller one. The thick one does not allow for the proper expansion tolerence of the head.
  5. So the gasket started leaking AGAIN!, Kawi is going to fix it again, with a new part. The old gasket was to thick they say... no recall just a factory auth repair. So now the bike is down at the beginning of the season...
  6. Welcome and I'm in Grove City, so we will have to hook up when the weather breaks.
  7. If ur at work you might want to turn the audio down.. the vid is safe. OMG I'm never playing any shaking Wii games again.... pssst wheres my Wiimote? http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Night_Live/video/clips/wii-guys/1018727/
  8. Any bullet fired from any weapon can kill someone, it takes alot less skill to kill someone with a shotgun then it does an ar-15, if you ever want to test this at a range just let me know. Pick up J. public off the street and give him a shot gun and tell him to hit a target and he stands a better chance then with an ar with no training. Your points are moot, "designs the weapon knowing what it's primary directive is." You tell me what hand guns are designed for, and how come the stats on this are overlooked, hand guns and rifles are responsible for many more deaths than assault rifles. So as far as mental stability goes... that can never be know of anyone, so why not take all guns.
  9. Your still missing my point, why ban something that is proven less dangerous then something else, regardless of how you "think" its used. That just is stupid and shows poor leadership. Those small decisions lead me to wonder what and how this man will decide on the bigger decisions. People fear what they don't understand, that is why I brought up the bike analogy, I love my assault rifles. You love your bike, who gives a fuck why I love, them I do, and I bet, for what ever the reason, you would be pretty pissed off if someone told you that you couldn't have you bike anymore because its too dangerous. Ben Franklin had it right, "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both."
  10. I can tell your intelligent and your do your homework... how do you not see that the assault rifle ban is just a social ploy? Based on purely fact and stats. Everyone is like "we don't need them assault rifles as long as I gots me a glock" well we don't need super high powered sport bikes like your Busa. What happens when someone says you can no longer have your Busa but are allowed to own say a 250? My problem is that it is just too much govt control on the tax paying, law abiding citizens of this country. What happened to the citizens of the WW2 era? The ones that would stand up and fight for what they believed in, now the populace of this nation is nothing but a bunch of push overs (not directed toward anyone in this thread, just general statement).
  11. Well when all that's said and done that's when you will need them the most... :lol: And obviously our president is worried about it. For some ungodly reason, I'm not sure why. My point is why mess with something, in your points and case's, that is irrelevant in the big picture. When their are even proven more dangerous weapons out there. I don't get the logic in the man?
  12. You can get a class 3 license? What about the rest of the stats and facts.. are you that hung up on Dems?
  13. what more pressing issues... like him sending 900mil to Gaza?
  14. But why take them? Whats the reason... are they dangerous? If thats the case then take all the guns cause the hand guns and shotguns are more dangerous as per the stats. Neither of the two worst shooting sprees in U.S. history involved assault weapons. * James Huberty, who killed 20 people at a McDonald's Restaurant in San Ysidro, California, in 1984 used a shotgun, a pistol and a hunting rifle. * George Hennard, who killed 22 people at a Luby's Cafeteria in Killeen, Texas, in 1991 used two ordinary pistols. Over the past 50 years, no civilian has ever used a legally owned machine gun in a violent crime. from : http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/guic.pdf The FBI's Supplemental Homicide Reports show that 57% of all murders in 1993 were committed with handguns, 3% with rifles, 5% with shotguns, and 5% with firearms where the type was unknown. The 1991 Survey of State Prison Inmates found that violent inmates who used a weapon were more likely to use a handgun than any other weapon; 24% of all violent inmates reported that they used a handgun. Of all inmates, 13% reported carrying a handgun when they committed the offense for which they were serving time. A study by the Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services reviewed the files of 600 firearm murders that occurred in 18 jurisdictions from 1989 to 1991. The study found that handguns were used in 72% of the murders (431 murders). Ten guns were identified as assault weapons, including five pistols, four rifles, and one shotgun. Pretty much if you want to keep us little people safe Obama... you might want to start with the Handguns...
  15. Then you should delete it because that is all that video, funny or not, is about separation of the races. So whether you use either word it is in the same context because of the manner it is used.
  16. I like this quote from my current CEO Jamie Dimon, "We have some banks that aren't going to make it," says Dimon, adding that the government should let them go out of business "rather than put them on permanent life support."
  17. ..... don't pursue.... I saw you eyeballing me... from afar... don't lie
  18. does this mean I can sell my body since I have 50+?......
  19. Bush is an Idiot and didn't run a damn thing over there. There was never any push for religious domination there. You of all people should know that what ever Bush says you have to just decipher and take with a grain of salt.
