Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770

I don't think that most people even know what Jury Nullification is.

The best of them can time it so that everybody at the table has their mouth full.

I certainly don't disagree there! But Jeff Cooper wasn't one of those.

Remember that old saying: "95% of lawyers give the rest a bad name." Not saying they're all bad, I used to shoot with a lawyer whose alias was "Solicitor General". I'd trust him any time.

Must one be a time traveler to teach History? Or an astronaut to teach Astronomy? A deep sea diver to teach Oceanography? A physicist to teach Physics? I think not.

Then there's this... Maybe the wheelbarrow is out of gas.

Not if he wants the lines straight.

See my comment in the Elmer Keith thread.

In my case, it's not moving very fast.

I'm guessing that it's because I worked out in the sun in short sleeves and no sun block.

Maybe I should say that I'm a borderline Luddite. I think that most modern things are overly complicated and computerized. I'll start with Cell Phones. I do like the convenience of having a communication device with me, but that's really all I need it to do. Make phone calls, take pictures of accident scenes, and maybe "Text me the directions", so that I don't have to write them down and then try to decode my own scribbling while driving. I DON'T need email, internet, or games on my phone. Since the advent of "smart" phones, I've found nothing happened in the world that couldn't wait for me to get home and deal with it there. Obviously I don't mind computers, but I don't see why my refrigerator or washing machine might need one. While modern cars ENGINES benefit from computer controls, it makes them far harder for the average consumer to work on them if needed. And the whole "infotainment" screen makes me wonder 'Why wasn't a radio enough?" With a CD player. I also have to say that I absolutely LOVE my DVR and my 55 inch TV. So not everything was better 100 years ago. In the firearms world, I am definitely a Fudd. I carry a 1911 or a NMV as my EDC, with a Taurus .38 as my CCW. As a Marine, I DO have an AR, but it has Carry Handle sights, no scope, no optics, (as a matter of fact, NOTHING I have has optics), and the only thing I have on the rail is a bipod. (Yes, there's room for a light, but it doesn't live there.) The only plastic handgun I have is a Ruger LCP, first Gen.

Nobody can insult me without my permission. They can't offend me either. Fudd, luddite, whatever. I answer to all the above.

If he were to run as a Democrat, stoned or drunk would usually be a resume enhancement.

It started with the railroads. They used signal lights by the tracks to inform their Engineers of track conditions ahead. They started using red as a danger signal because red light has the longest wavelength We can see it from farther away, so the engineers had more time to act on it.

Don't you mean thank COD?

When you're rich, you don't NEED to go out because you can afford to have everything you want comes TO you. (I don't know this for a fact because I'm NOT rich, but I imagine that it would be like that.)

In Naval and Marine Aviation, they're always preaching about not wearing rings around the aircraft. At one time, they had a Safety Poster that had three guys showing upraised hands with missing fingers, captioned "We solemnly swear to be safe".

I do too, but if they're trying to track guns, by whatever means, they're NOT well meaning.

I tend to question the validity of that description.

I knew a guy once that said he was going to start farming. He'd just bought a strip of land 6 inches wide and a mile long. I asked him what he was planning on growing on a strip of land like that! He said, "Spaghetti."

I have the same problem. Every time a picture of me is taken it LOOKS like me.

THAT is a good reason to have high capacity.

AARP already doesn't think Old People should have guns.

Believe it or not, each finger means something different. That being said, I doubt if most people know what they mean, they just think a bunch of rings is cool, or whatever.

These signs have the Law behind them. I doubt that will change.
