First off, read the article yourself. The guy is suing because he claims he was trying to get away when he was shot. In my prior post, I said that could get you sued. Secondly, he is currently suing. He has not won anything at this point. I'm betting he will not win the case either. Nothing in this article, or your post, contradicts what I posted above. It does not make the point that you can be sued, and will lose, if someone gets hurt while breaking into you home, or stealing your property. You cannot win a lawsuit if you get injured in the process of committing a crime. If someone is caught committing a crime, and tries to escape from his captor without posing a threat to the captor, and the captor injures him with malice aforethought, the captor can be sued. It's that simple.

I like it, but I'm sure it is quite heavy. The SKS is heavy to begin with. Laminated stocks are about the heaviest choice when choosing a stock too. But I bet it has no recoil anymore. Should help accuracy too.

There may be cases, but they won't win. You can not sue for injury, in any state, while you were in the process of committing a crime. A homeowner can only be sued for shooting or harming someone when they stopped trying to commit a crime and tried to flee. Otherwise people would be breaking into homes and hurting themselves for a living.

Presidential Sabotage?
Rattler replied to Doc's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
And the Dems said the GOP were obstructionists!! LOL!!!! He's not hated by everyone who voted for Hillary either. Many have already said they'd give him a chance, even Oprah! And state AG's will only be able to cause a problem if he does something illegal, which he won't. He's not a stupid man, unlike his haters. Imagine if people had this attitude and put it in writing when Obama first got elected. These people would've been arrested and jailed for racist threats. Of course a white male in America is still legal to harass and show prejudice for. This is why nobody with a brain pays any attention to the haters. -
Presidential Sabotage?
Rattler replied to Doc's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
That's because they're HATERS!!!!! Tolerance is a joke. -
I got my first hunting license in October of 1970. Even though those prices seem low, the dollar was worth a lot more back then. About 5 times more than it's worth today. So multiply those prices by 5 and that's the amount of discretionary income it was costing people at the time. I know, because I bought a Mossberg $500 in 1970 for $80 and was only earning $2.10 per hour at the time. That's was a week's take home pay for me then. One good thing about buying firearms though. They tend to increase in value as the value of the dollar drops, so you really should never lose money on a firearm when you sell it if it's not abused and maintained well.

More like monkey see, monkey do. He plans to do what the Clinton's showed could be done when the US DOJ allows it to happen. -

Well, Obama is not one of those 57%. You guys need to realize Obama thinks exactly like Uptown does. That's why his entire 8 years has been a disaster. -
FREE COLLEGE !!!!
Rattler replied to growalot's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Just about every SUNY school around here. Do a check and see how many students at SUNY schools have an average lower than 2.5 GPA and get back to me. -
FREE COLLEGE !!!!
Rattler replied to growalot's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Uptown posted this: "Why would ANY troubled city kid want to leave the city for some backward upstate town when they could stay home and attend a CUNY school also for free?" I don't know, but the counties in the Catskills are loaded with kids from the city, Staten Island and Long Island who attend school here. Many are doing and selling drugs, (opioid abuse is huge) as well as getting arrested for crimes like robbery, assault and rape. Before you claim to know anything about it you should come up here and see for yourself. Go to any of the Sheriff's offices, in any of the Catskill counties and ask for info on crimes committed by downstate students who attend any of their SUNY campuses. These kids are burdening residents of this area with tons of expense for law enforcement manpower. They contribute nothing to the area while they're here and we look forward to any college break where they go home for awhile. It's not a delusion, it's a reality, of which you seem to have an avoidance issue. -
Cuomo vetoes knife rights bill
Rattler replied to Rattler's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Yeah, but he's too conceited too see it from the people's point of view, just like Hillary. -
FREE COLLEGE !!!!
Rattler replied to growalot's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Today a 2.5 GPA is handed out to every student as a reward for just coming to class. Tests, if they are even given, are not used to affect the final grade unless they earn the student a higher one. A lot of upstate folks are of the opinion this proposal is a way to get troubled kids out of the city and put them upstate in community college. Of course, they bring trouble with them and it becomes an upstate problem. So, we will pay higher taxes to the state AND the local tax office, which will have to absorb the cost of dealing with the trouble. -
Cuomo vetoes knife rights bill
Rattler replied to Rattler's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
I would think the latest election would indicate gun control is a losing agenda for a candidate, at any level of federal office, and being extreme enough to go against knives would surely indicate a fanatic, with regard to rights violations. The "free" college agenda will be thoroughly trashed as wasteful wealth re-distribution and socialist too. Cuomo is showing what a moron he really is, not that many ever thought he wasn't. -
FREE COLLEGE !!!!
Rattler replied to growalot's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Government has no money that it hasn't taken from taxpayers. Taxpayers absorb the cost of anything the government claims is "free". We will pay the costs. It also needs to be known that anything free is often perceived as worthless. Many students will just go to college to avoid getting a job. Do they require a "C" or better grade point average to continue, or can kids, and even adults, attend for 10 years without graduating? Will they get food stamps, welfare and other taxpayer funded benefits at the same time? Will those who don't qualify for "free" tuition get gouged to cover the cost of those who need not pay? Will colleges inflate grades for these students to keep the money flowing in? Will employers consider a county college education to be worth anything in the future when anyone can get one for free? WHAT IS TO BE GAINED FROM THIS PROPOSAL? Is it just a way to get taxpayers to absorb the cost of political indoctrination of the state's youth, so in the future they will vote for the hand that fed them? Considering what colleges today are doing to our youth, that seems to be the most logical explanation. -
Cuomo is a tyrant and wanna be dictator. Lots of good folks will continue to get screwed by the current anti-knife law, thanks to Cuomo's veto. Perhaps an override of the veto will happen since the bill had so much support from both sides of the legislature. http://www.readyforanythingwire.com/story/392491

2016 was a bad year for Christians
Rattler replied to Rattler's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Something I saw in a comment section Those that are interested in the truth, will find it. Those that interested in PC will follow blindly. Christopher Allard Repost 23 hrs · Edited · I don't typically go on rants or express my political beliefs here, but I just have to get this off my mind. As some of you know, I'm active duty Army. Aside from that, I am a medic. I've spent 3 years of my life overseas in both Afghanistan and Iraq. I've seen some pretty atrocious sites caused by war, from both sides. I've picked up blown up body parts of friends and I've saved the lives of guys who were trying to kill me and my guys right before I was keeping them from their 72 virgins or whatever they believe awaits them on the other side. Here is an unbiased truthful view to the Syrian refugee situation. My first deployment to Iraq, in 2006, my unit voluntarily ran a childrens burn clinic outside of the FOB. It was a constant target for attacks. You would think that people wouldn't shoot mortars or rockets at their own children, but you would be wrong. We saw hundreds of children, from infants to 18 year olds. The overwhelming majority of the kids we saw (90% or better) were clear cases of abuse. These parents were literally dunking their kids in boiling water, or throwing hot chai at their kids faces... Yes, we're talking about babies, toddlers, kids not even old enough to understand why their parents would do these things to them. HUNDREDS of kids... We saw quite a few of these kids that were sexually abused, both girls and boys. Their parents acted if nothing was wrong with this, even when confronted by our doctors. This is the mentality of their society, not the viewpoint of a few individuals... these beliefs have been accepted to the vast majority of these people. Many were educated, well dressed, well spoken men, but yet, they still raped their own children, and kept chai boys (if you don't know what that means, google it.) During that deployment, we also captured the 3rd largest EFP cache that had ever been captured. There were hundreds of copper plates, homemade explosives, fake curbs to house the EFP's, hundreds of mortars and rockets and howitzer rounds, even an anti-aircraft gun. All of these things came from one place, Syria. Almost every single IED or EFP we found or hit could be traced back to Syria... A lot of the terrorists we captured were from SYRIA... Imagine that. Fast forward a couple years, and I find myself in Helmand Province, in Afghanistan... We had a group of Afghani's that were paid to help guard our little mud hut in the middle of an Afghan village (I wasn't on a fob) These guys also kept a "chai boy" A boy, about 11 years old, who was there to serve these guys sexually. We heard him being sexually assaulted many times, but there was nothing we could do about it. We asked the police, the Afghan Army, and we were told the same thing every time.... it's their culture, and accepted as the norm.... Once again, we captured Syrian made explosives, weapons, and other items... We found Syrian passports during raids... And people out there want us to let these people into the US, with our kids, and near our wives. Near our schools, near our churches, synogogues, malls. Places where we should never have to fear being blown up, shot, kidnapped and tortured... Don't forget what they did to the Egyptian Coptic Christians, or the Jordanian pilot... Don't forget about what they do to rape victims! They stone these women to death for being raped! They behead their own people. Do you think they will show mercy to you? Look at the rape statistics in Denmark, Sweden, Belgium. Facts don't lie... 97% of rapes committed in Sweden were committed by Muslim immigrants... And you want 10,000 of these people here? Even if just 1% of these so called "refugees" were ISIS supporters or active ISIS terrorists, would that be acceptable to you? Chew on it... think about it. Take a good look at your kids or your wife and decide if the risk is worth taking. Feel free to share this if you want.

Presidential Sabotage?
Rattler replied to Doc's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
So, in the future, we will be able to point to how the Clinton's left office screwing the taxpayers and all Americans, and prove it was not an aberration by pointing out how Obama did the same thing, only worse. That should prove to all Americans, it's idiocy to ever elect a Democrat POTUS. Let's hope we never see another one. -

Only because P.T Barnum was correct. "There's a sucker born every minute." You won't see any intelligent folks listening to his fairy tales.
