Just as an aside for those who believe some of us are attacking freedom of religion, Islam is NOT a religion, it's a Theocracy! To save some of you the time to look that up, that's a system of government in which priests rule in the name of their God or a god. Some of you are very adamant about the separation of church and state in America, but don't seem to protest when it comes to Islam, whether it be in the US or anywhere in the world.

True. Ever since special interests were able to get enough elected hacks to vote that into the rules, they can. That wasn't part of the original law. Politicians will always look to commandeer public monies to buy votes. That's what happened to PR funds and that is what the anti's are trying to do with this propaganda paper. BTW, even if money is used for thrush research, the anti's didn't put any money into it, so I still say they have no say in it's use.

Thank God for upstate NY Sheriffs http://dailycaller.com/2015/01/20/new-york-sheriff-on-handgun-renewal-permits-throw-them-in-the-garbage-because-that-is-where-they-belong-video/

I would go with the Leupold on that .243. The Nikon would also be good, but I think the Leupold is better.

I pray you get the short straw junkie.

OK then. You're forgiven.

"I do not credit any atrocities to Islam but instead credit them to the sick twisted mind people that committed those crimes." It's a shame you don't give Christianity the same courtesy. "Except the Christians embarked on holy wars during the crusades and Christians they tried doing that in Bosnia and Kosovo in the 1990's." I see a double standard here.

AT, Whatever, or whoever, is teaching you about Islam is pushing propaganda on you, based on the posts you have entered in this thread. You better find a tutor that doesn't have a bias and isn't a bigot regarding Christians.

The paper is a propaganda piece that tries to say everyone contributes to conservation, so everyone should have a say in it's application. Well, everyone pays taxes, but only sportsmen pay additional fees to specifically fund conservation. Just paying taxes into the general fund doesn't give anyone the right to be on any committees that run the military, education, commerce, etc. That is what taxpayers have representatives for. The anti's have representatives in government, just as sportsmen do. There is already a system in place for them to be heard on conservation issues. They have no right, and no authority, to request anything, regarding any monies contributed by sportsman alone. Let them pony up equivalent funding and then they can ask for a seat at the table. I doubt they will be able to do that though. I believe they know it too. The current desire is to be able to achieve power and control over the issue, and that will be the ruin of effective conservation in America. Letting any type of "activists" have a say in anything that currently makes fact based decisions, is a recipe for disaster. The history of gun control proves it.

Then it should be very easy to single them out and pick them off, solving the whole terrorist problem, shouldn't it? Tell me how we do that.

No, it's totally relevant. If you've read it, you're not correctly presenting it's violence in your posts. Here's a great question I would love to see a Muslim answer honestly. But the Koran also states lying to infidels is what you must do as a devout Muslim.

AT, you've never read the Koran, have you?

This is all very interesting as far as debate goes. However, the truth about that compound outside of Hancock is very simply verified. Any of you guys who believe it is a peaceful place should go there and approach the front gate. See what happens when you do. Then get back to us with the truth about what happened to you there.

FRC president Tony Perkins: "Terror swept across Africa and Asia over the weekend, as radical Muslims set fire to churches, smashed glass, destroyed villages, and brutally murdered innocent Christians in protest of France's Charlie Hebdo. ... Meanwhile, the media seems quick to rally around Charlie -- but what have they said about these Christians? Will there be protests and newspaper headlines across Europe and the U.S. for the tens of thousands of Christians brutally slaughtered, tortured, or forced to flee their country for their faith? While it's important to stand up for our freedoms, we cannot ignore the one from which all others spring: the freedom of religion. President Obama is particularly guilty of this, as his administration continues its own march to sanitize the public square of faith. Yet on occasions like Friday's Religious Freedom Day, words hardly matched up to the White House's actions. 'The First Amendment prohibits the Government from establishing religion,' the President proclaimed. 'It protects the right of every person to practice their faith how they choose, to change their faith, or to practice no faith at all, and to do so free from persecution and fear… Promoting religious freedom has always been a key objective of my administration's foreign policy…' Could have fooled us."

AT, what you don't seem to know is that the crusades were actually self defense after decades of Muslim attacks and attempted genocide of Christians, not unlike what the Muslims are trying to accomplish again. Besides, that was centuries ago. Tell me about genocidal killings Christians are doing today that we should be worried about. Then tell me how all of the killing done by Muslims in the last decades are not a crusade.

Fear not, oh paranoid one. The only thing I notice revealed to me is whether someone has a brain or not. I couldn't care less about anything else.

The insidious encroachment of Islam in America has been going on for about 2 decades now. American's are being lied to by the PC crowd. Nobody knew anything about Islam in America 30 years ago. Today, they are all over the place and nothing they do is making America a better country as far as freedom and liberty are concerned. This is a culture that refuses to assimilate in America. Worse, they prefer to make us change to suit their beliefs. Yes, that camp by Hancock, NY is real. There have been many reports of it's existence for years by local media. The details of the camp cannot be verified though, because they let nobody in to see what goes on. They are on all sorts of government assistance too. When the local sheriff began to investigate the camp, the FBI told him to "stand down" because it was under surveillance by the federal government. They claim it's useful for intel on radical Islam. They offer no assurance however, the camp will not cause a major issue in the area eventually. They'll show up to draw chalk lines around the dead when it happens though. Radical Muslims want to kill you. Moderate Muslims want a Radical Muslim to kill you. That's the only difference between them. Anyone who tries to compare devout Christians to Radical Muslims, simply has a hatred for Christianity and is showing their bias and intolerance for it, while excusing the evil that Radical Islam preaches daily.

I'm going to see it today. As an aside, this stuff really makes me very angry. Anti-Gunners Snipe at a Patriot "American Sniper," is a film based on the true story of Navy sniper Chris Kyle and his book of the same name. Kyle served with the SEAL Team 3 Sniper Element Charlie platoon and was the most lethal sniper in U.S. history. He accumulated 160 confirmed kills and another 95 probables, and was known to his enemies as Al-Shaitan Ramad (The Devil of Ramadi). Though he survived numerous harrowing encounters in Iraq, sadly, he was killed by a vet suffering from PTSD here in the States. That story is, in part, why the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence has provided a Facebook forum for anti-gun jackasses to swap spit over the movie and Kyle's death. "Good Riddance," jeered one. "What goes around comes around," derided another. Chris Walker, executive director of 2nd Vote, said, "Americans' voices don't end on Election Day, they continue with the dollars they spend every day. The companies and groups that are financially supporting outrageous comments like these need to explain why they continue to receive their support or risk a financial backlash as consumers might choose to take their money elsewhere." Indeed, such hateful sentiment deserves scorn of its own. The Patriot Post

The Ruger American rifle is a lower priced Ruger rifle, but has proven to be a very reliable and highly accurate rifle none the less. It has a unique V-block bedding system that really promotes excellent accuracy in this rifle. Chambered in .308 Win makes it a great deer rifle. Using bullets of 150 grain will produce light recoil. Premium bullets , or all copper rounds, can be used in 130 grain weights, but they are almost twice the price of 150 grain soft points while felt recoil differences between the two are hardly noticeable. All reviews I've seen so far praise the rifle in all respects. I don't see any reason your father will not be completely happy with it.

This is pretty funny.....but so true.

On a beautiful deserted island in the middle of nowhere, the following people are stranded: 2 Italian men and 1 Italian woman, 2 French men and 1 French woman, 2 German men and 1 German woman, 2 Greek men and 1 Greek woman, 2 English men and 1 English woman, 2 Polish men and 1 Polish woman, 2 Japanese men and 1 Japanese woman, 2 Australian men and 1 Australian woman, 2 New Zealander men and 1 New Zealander woman, 2 Irish men and 1 Irish woman, 2 American men and 1 American woman. One month later, the following things have occurred.... One Italian man killed the other Italian man for the Italian woman. The two French men and the French woman are living happily together, having loads of sex. The two German men have a strict weekly schedule of when they alternate with the German woman. The two Greek men are sleeping with each other and the Greek woman is cleaning and cooking for them. The two English men are waiting for someone to introduce them to the English woman. The Polish men took a long look at the endless ocean and one look at the Polish woman and they started swimming. The two Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are waiting for instructions. The two Australian men beat each other senseless fighting over the Australian woman, who called them both “bloody wankers” and is checking out all the other men. Both New Zealand men are searching the island for sheep. The Irish began by dividing the island into North and South and setting up a distillery. They do not remember if sex is in the picture because it gets sort of foggy after the first few liters of coconut whiskey, but they are satisfied in that at least the English are not getting any. The American woman keeps on bitching about her body being her own, the true nature of feminism, how she can do everything that they can do, about the necessity of fulfillment, the equal division of household chores, how her last boyfriend respected her opinions and treated her much nicer and how her relationship with her mother is mproving. The two American men have committed suicide.

An army major visits the sick soldiers, goes up to one private and asks: "What's your problem, Soldier?" "Chronic syphilis, Sir" "What treatment are you getting?" "Five minutes with the wire brush each day." "What's your ambition?" "To get back to the front, Sir." "Good man." says the Major. He goes to the next bed. "What's your problem, Soldier?" "Chronic piles, Sir" "What treatment are you getting?" "Five minutes with the wire brush each day." "What's your ambition?" "To get back to the front, Sir." "Good man." says the Major. He goes to the next bed. "What's your problem, Soldier?" "Chronic gum disease, Sir" "What treatment are you getting?" "Five minutes with the wire brush each day." "What's your ambition?" "To get the wire brush before the other two, Sir"

Bill Gates is hanging out with the chairman of General Motors. "If automotive technology had kept pace with computer technology over the past few decades," boasts Gates, "you would now be driving a V-32 instead of a V-8, and it would have a top speed of 10,000 miles per hour. Or, you could have an economy car that weighs 30 pounds and gets a thousand miles to a gallon of gas. In either case, the sticker price of a new car would be less than $50." "Sure," says the GM chairman. "But would you really want to drive a car that crashes four times a day?"

A group of men go up into the mountains to go bear hunting. The first morning out, jjb4900 goes out on his own. He comes to a clearing on a hill overlooking a field and sees a bear slowly strolling across the field. He gets the bear in his sites and fires. He then looks all around, but he can't find the bear. All of a sudden, he feels a tap on his shoulder. He turns around, and there's the bear. The bear knocks the gun out of his hands, and jjb4900 stands there shaking in his boots. The bear yells at him, saying he's sick and tired of being shot at and gives jjb4900 an ultimatum. The bear tells him that he can either drop to his knees and service him, or the bear will eat his face. jjb4900 immediately drops to his knees and obliges the bear. The bear walks away contented and jjb4900 find his way back to the cabin. The next morning, jjb4900 takes an even bigger gun with him and goes to the same place he saw the bear before. And sure enough, there was the bear strolling across the field again. jjb4900 gets all excited, gets the bear in his sites and shoots! He looks all around, but there is no bear. All of a sudden he feels a tap on his shoulder again. He turns around, and, surprise, there's the bear. The bear looks at him, knocks the gun out of his hand, and says,''You know the routine.'' jjb4900 drops to his knees and obliges the bear again. When he's done, the bear walks away smoking a cigarette and jjb4900 stumbles back to his cabin. jjb4900 is all pissed off now. He grabs the biggest gun he can find and heads to the same spot again. And sure enough, there is the bear strolling across the field again. He gets the bear in his sites, and says to himself, ''Now this bear's gonna get it!'' He pulls the trigger and, "Ka-BOOM!" He looks all over again, but no bear. Then, just as before, he feels the same tap at his shoulder. He turns around, there's the bear standing there with a big smirk on his face. He looks down at jjb4900 and says, ''You're not in this for the hunting are you?'''
