WTF are you talking about? "A failed welfare system that creates single mothers? ( ETC)..single mothers are created by low life scum who run away from the responsibility of having a child. Women do it too! From all walks of life, not juts the poor, and it's NOT race oriented! I know plenty of white DB's that ran away leaving a single parent behind. NONE! But don't worry, the NRA and all the other organizations people pay to stop this from happening will make this all go away! Soon, so they promise. You can try that, but many states from I have started to learn, won't sell long guns to a NYer. I could be wrong on this one. WTF again! All military looking rifles have to be registered? Please define "Registered" and "Military Looking". My M&P 15 22.lr didn't have to be registered, just the basic NICS. It looks and acts dead on like those 'scary black guns' in the higher calibers. The "root cause" of gun violence is stupid people doing stupid shit with guns! No more no less! This isn't going to stop! Threads like this make no sense unless you look at the whole picture, not just being narrow minded. I think I need to post something in the beer thread now, at least that thread has people who make sense.

I also want to add, that part of that ad made a "generalization" that all men are sexual predators and violent. I firmly believe that Clinton b*&^% is behind this BS.

Is a shotgun date what happens before a shotgun wedding?

Depends for me. During the week I stay on top of it, shoveled twice already, and may go out again in a few minutes. Weekends where the wife won't have to drive, I look at accumulation and make the call. I do have a snow blower, but for this light snow and the small area I have to deal with, shovel is faster. My back hates both, so I just get it done how ever the storm calls for.

That's just it Culver, I can't, I just get more and more infuriated. I get that the outdoors isn't for everyone, and by no means do I imply that you are not a man if you don't enjoy the outdoors or do outdoor activities. I'm just so sick of this new age movement that has really gone off the rails since Trump was elected. It's escalated so fast in just a few years it makes your head spin. Because I love to hunt, own guns, shoot guns, sometimes I don't shave for a few months, fish, and eat wild game when I talk about that I'm toxic? AUFKM! What's toxic are the male's who are buying into this BS! What's more toxic is those 'men' and younger generation are being brain washed and influenced by the real venom. Just remember who the original sinner was.....EVE!

I WANT TO START OFF BY STATING, NOT ALL WOMEN ARE OVER SENSITIVE, BUT THE LEFT SURE PROVE MY POINT AT THE END. I just brought this up because the term "Toxic Masculinity" is a joke IMO, and while the add never comes right out and makes that distinction, it's in the undertone. If this way of thinking continues, we may very well see an end to all outdoor activities like hunting, trapping, or fishing related. This is a snowball the hard core feminists started that is seriously out of control. Remember this one: The Little Rascals Club was called 'The He Man Woman Haters Club". It was a joke about how as kids, girls thought boys had 'couties' and boys thought girls had 'couties'. That shit won't fly today. Even as a joke. Why, because many men have become women in their head, and women are over sensitive.

True. It's been said that the refs are starting let them battle it out. I'm OK with that, big boys let them play. But blatant needs a flag. I'm not pissing and moaning or crying, just stating the refs need to get their shit together. Bad calls are becoming the norm, and acceptable. I just can't agree with that. That Pats need an * next to the games they cheated in, but that won't happen either.

What are people thoughts on this controversy? Are you boycotting Gillette products?

I agree. Over this crap. The Saints are my #2 team, and I was pissed off with that "no call", still am, but I can't change it, so I moved on. I do have to add though, if this happened to any ones #1 team, they might react the same way, I did say 'MIGHT'. What if this was your sons team in a championship game? Would you be so easy to just let it go? I doubt it. But shit happens! But, I also still can't let go or forgive Andre Reed taking off his helmet and throwing on the ground and stopping up and down like a 3 year old who lost his cookie on a bad call in a frikin' Superbowl! Yes, it's just sports, but at times, a cut stings for a long time.

Is it? Is it really? Think about some of the posts on here. It's not a challenge, it's a statement. LOL!

I'm betting if a hot woman was swimming in the Hudson or Mohawk, showered and offered her "special clam" you guys would eat it.

I have to wear gloves when it's cold. I've had frostbite a few times, and my hands don't function right when they are cold anymore. The older I get the more clothing I put on.

Tacos. This is my wife's plate. Due to her new diet she made her own taco shells from cheese. Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk

I'm headed out again tomorrow. Not killing anything I can't eat.

Are you suggesting that, ehem, "WNY" is responsible? I've lived out that way twice. Heard some things.

Not trying to be a dick, but do you have links for the previous vessels floating freely down the river?

Anyone else hear about this? https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Breaking-Bridges-closed-after-boats-get-loose-in-13560816.php The Captain JP III and a few other tugs and barges got set loose to drift down the Hudson due to ice. I'm thinking more like they were un-moored by vandals. This just my opinion, but seeing this hasn't happened before makes one question how the vassals got loose.

Well, a wall around the Texas-Mexico border......... Lets take a look at that being realistic! There are air planes that can fly over that wall, there are boats that can bypass that border altogether, this new drone craze can bypass that wall as well. Bad people and drugs are brought in from Canada, CA, NY, Florida, and a few other states. So sure, lets build a wall around just one area to solve the issue. Not to mention this wall BS has this country at it's most vulnerable in history. TSA not showing up for work, even the CIA and FBI aren't getting paid. All because of a pipe dream. I cannot live a pipe dream. Bad people and drugs are coming into this country, and not just from the TEX/MEX border! But trying to explain that is like shoving your hand in a wood chipper and wondering why people start calling you "Stubby". As for MS-13 getting in, you best take a real look and not rely on Alex Jones! They get in through all the areas I mentioned. So go ahead, support Trump on a pipe dream, and then don't pressure him on defending our 2A rights! Because gun rights don't matter, a wall does.

And next up from the Democrats, how to feel good about yourself. JUST KIDDING! JUST KIDDING! We live in a tough world, trying to make everyone around you happy is hard. I try to be a nice guy, but it doesn't always work out how I envisioned things. So basically, I come off as a prick! How to live: You do what you can to help those less fortunate! Donate to worthy causes! Don't bash people who can't afford your lifestyle! I've never had money, if I did I would just donate more to origination's that deserve it. But in the end, YOU have to be comfortable in YOUR skin! It shoulder matter what others think. YOU decide your destiny, not some website forum, and not friends or family!

I want to start by stating, to many, this is an outdoor site, so most don't bother with the banter that goes on in the "Political Section". They would rather talk about, well, being outdoors- hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, and everything related. It's not that they don't vote, or have strong feelings about certain matters, they come here to talk about the outdoors, and primarily hunting and fishing, not politics. Yes, there are some forums about beer, food, using a smoker, etc. .But they are fun, and enjoyable to people, because those forums allow people to be themselves on a human level, to bond, to maybe make a friend. Not like reading about conspiracy theories in every other post. I hope you understand my meaning here. As for people agreeing with you. Most of us do. If I don't agree with something, I state it. I don't agree with the wall! It will do nothing to stop illegal immigrants, it will do nothing to stop drugs from entering this country, it won't stop the vile acts being committed by US citizens already here and that were born here, and it certainly won't do shit to counter-act the scum already here. Just a waste of tax payer money, just like giving free loaders welfare. Not sure what answers you are looking for, but I gave an answer. This is how I feel. Like I said, I agree with on all you stated in your first post for this thread.

Well, both championship games were a disappointment. I think this was the first time in history both games went to OT. I wanted the Saints all the way, bad call on a PI killed that game! I was even rooting for the Chiefs so much I BBQ'd ribs. IDGAF about the Super Bowl now. Of course I will root for any team that takes on the Pats.

I guess the ribs I made are going to waste. Tried to send KC some karma. Hoping this game turns around, but it's looking like KC is no match for the cheating bastids.

You got that right! That was blatant, and no flag! I was pissed!

I usually carry all my gear in pockets. So a pack was seldom used in recent years. Maybe those really cold days where bringing a thermos to have something hot to drink were the exceptions. I also needed something to now fit a tripod and camera for filming. I wanted light weight, durable, and just enough space for the interior. This just fit the bill for me.

This is what you make for dinner when hoping the Chiefs route those bastid Pats. BBQ ribs! Wife's on a no carb diet, so also burgers, and a tomato mozzarella salad with EVO and balsamic vinegar dressing. Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk
