  1. They can propose all they want. It takes a vote of 3/4 of the states to ratify them. Good luck there.
  2. I remember that. The left used it as a vehicle to push their agenda. Out of respect, McCain suspended his campaign during that time, and some say that it cost him the election. The main difference between us and them is that we are willing to let others do what they wish, while they want to cram their lifestyles and views down out throats. If they were to just leave us alone, we'd be fine. I hope that they do.
  3. It doesn't pizz me off, it tells me where the other person's mind is. What does it say about THEM if they don't consider it patriotic to vote for their side.
  4. I doubt that any report of substance will be made public. If and when Trump gets back in, they will be so focused on Orange Man Bad stories, that they won't bother with it.
  5. Not being a lawyer, I can only say what I've seen on T.V. and movies: Whenever a witness is called back to the Stand, he's always reminded (by the Judge, I think), that he's still under Oath.
  6. Ask yourself this: How often has the government investigating themselves EVER found anybody responsible for any wrongdoing? And if they did, it was always politically motivated.
  7. Unfortunately, those doing the investigating will be those that have the most to lose if such an investigation were to actually find anything, just like always. The DEI head of the USSS has resigned. it will stop there.
  8. Another favorite. An Uberti, (I think) imported by Intercontinental Arms, which in the late 60s became Interarms. So this one has some age on it. I got it cheap at a pawn shop looking like it'd been a stunt gun in the movies. I stripped, sanded, and refinished the grips, cleaned up the gripframe, and cold blued the barrel and cylinder. When I do my part, it shoots one hole groups at 10 yards.
  9. I'd like to have my 25 year old body back. I sure don't want to go back to work for another 40 years.
  10. Seen it before, still love it. Fun story. I was stationed at NAS Atlanta in Ga. back in 1988- 1990 with the Marine Air Group Reserves. We were doing a Toys for Tots event at Miss Kitty's there. (Travis Tritt filmed his first music video, "Country Club" there about a year before, and he was actually performing there that night). There was myself, a Captain, and a Corporal from my unit there, and a Color Guard from another unit. When the event started, the Color was to March to the front of the club, do their turn, and present the flag to the audience. We were then to march up and salute. The plan was to have them march up while the Star Spangled Banner was playing. Problem: The club didn't HAVE the Star Spangled Banner on hand. Now remember, this was before smartphones, or the internet for that matter, so we couldn't just pull it up. I asked the club owner if he had Lee Greenwood, and being as it was a Country Nightclub, he did. I told the Captain, who didn't know Country that this would work. Not having any other option, he agreed. When it was time, the Color Guard marched up in silence. When they were in position, we marched up and saluted. The club owner started playing the song, softly at first. A little louder for the chorus, then back down some for the next verse. He did this for the entire song, until the final verse was thundering. The crowd went nuts! The applause was deafening, the cheering even more so. We dropped our salute, about faced, and followed by the Color Guard, marched back to the back of the club And didn't pay for a drink all night. We took in enough toys to fill a van to the roof, and raised about $600 on top of that.
  11. I don't have a dog in this discussion, but I have an observation. From what I have read, here and elsewhere, I would say that The specific military designations only apply to those military pistols: The 1911, and 1911A1. If the pistols in question are NOT military, then they might be best described as 1911 TYPE pistols. Most of the 1911 makers have a military reproduction 1911 or 1911A1, like the one shown here. The rest would be 1911 TYPE pistols, since there are hundreds of different versions available. Even my own 1911 I would call a 1911 type pistol, even though it started out as a Norinco 1911A1 reproduction, since it has been somewhat modified since I got it. We usually call our Cowboy guns SAAs, even though they aren't made by Colt, they're reproductions. I understand that collectors have very specific nomenclature for those collector guns, the rest of us, not so much, I would say. Just enjoy our 1911 TYPE guns.
  12. I haven't got the chance to shoot the Buntline yet, but I like it. The other is an old favorite, my 625 in .45ACP.
  13. I've always wondered about the first guy to think "I'm gonna eat the thing that comes out of that chicken's butt."
  14. Agreed. They are both puppets for somebody else. Obama maybe. But what I'm talking about, is that since that letter from, Biden came out, I think that there is a decent chance that when we DO actually hear from him, he will resign due to some medical reason, and let Kamala heroically take over AS President so that she can run as an incumbent. I hear that there was some medical emergency in Las Vegas last week. He might actually be dead, so it could actually turn out to be a "Dave" type scenario, but letting her take over instead of replacing him with a look-a-like. But all that might just be the storyteller in me coming out to play.
  15. The kids were probably paid off by the CIA to stay out of it.
  16. What the H?!?! Are you TRYING to ruin my reputation?!?
  17. I don't have much of a problem with that. The employee is just doing their job.
