    Gun issue aside - this, folks, captures the essence of cat mentality and those of us deemed worthy enough to wait on them hand and paw.

    :lol: Well I woke up alive, but she's still giving me the stink eye :wtf: :? It probably helps that there is no gun in the house.

    Moral of the story - keep guns away from cats 'cause guns don't kill people, cats with guns do :|or something :oops:

    Or a monkey...a monkey could so pull a trigger. And my cat has mastered how to turn on the tv and open the door, so I'm betting if I had a gun she would have killed me by now and eaten the body :shock:

    :shock: I think my life just flashed before my eyes. She's been looking at me funny all night :wtf:

    Cats are so freakin strange...some of 'em. DId you see that clip thats floating around the internet of that black cat who tosses a bottle of the dresser and then hisses? (it was maybe a yawn, lol)

    :lol::lol: She does that! She used to do that with tomatoes to watch them go splat. She knocked a cup of coffee off the counter the other day and then sat there and watched me clean it up. Better keep the spoons and curly straws away from her too :?

    like when our old founding fathers wrote the constitution they wrote it around black powder mussle loaders. i for one have never had a mussle loading black powder gun and have never fired or loaded one. anyone else not experienced in mussle loading black powder guns? anyone ever have or currently own a black powder mussle loading gun?

    Love the answers, well when on topic,
    and seeing hearing people's experiences with guns.

    ever handle a black powder mussle loader, pandora? the 2nd amendment speaks on these guns. i've only ever held one and watched folks load & fire them. it is quite the process that does & doesn't exist within the modern armory of today, however they still produce them, they have a mussle loader season for deer hunters.

    My state doesn't have a rifle season so a lot of hunters take advantage of muzzle loading season and the power of a .50 cal shot. I don't hunt so I've never messed with them.

    there is no logic thats why

    guns dont kill people, its the bullet travelling through their eyeball

    spoons dont make people fat... its the 40g of fat in the ice cream that does.

    Speaking of black powder mussle loader, which I have not seen in person...
    Big year for the Civil War Reenactment ... 150 years, next month here in GA

    Some PJ fans might be hanging around that weekend...

    I saw a bit of that one year in our little town of Jonesboro, a tribute to history.

    simple questions...

    1. have you ever owned a gun?
    2. have you ever picked a gun up?
    3. have you ever fired a gun?
    4. do you know how to load & unload most guns?

    yes or no answers and maybe short descriptions will do fine, thank you.

    these things i learned at an early age. my family hunted when i was a kid. i learned gun safety from my grandfather and dad. grandpa (dad's dad) was a WWII army veteran who fought in the south pacific.

    i think many believe a gun & bullets lying in the closet is insane and only asking for death and in a hurry. when in fact this is not the truth by any stretch of the imagination. safety, safety, safety.

    after my swim i'll add a few more details. enjoy your days, fine people!

    at this common department store they sell these way badass pellet & bb guns. they have a bb gun that looks exactly like a .357 magnum. on the label it says, "shoots as fast as you can pull the trigger"

    i thought, "wow...cool"

    $80 some bucks & it's yours. this thing looks just like a bulky ass .357 magnum all huge & even has killer hand grips. the thing shoots bbs. frickin sweet. wonder if it is gas cartridge powered or whatever? they also have the traditional piece of shit Daisy brand lever action bb guns which are a frickin hoot to mess around with.

    i see a bb gun in my future

    anyone else not participated in our gun poll? i'd like as many replies as possible. thank you, folks. this is helping us learn more about our societies around the globe & our differences. as well as our knowledge of firearms or the lack there of and what our different & very unique countries say about us as a people.

    and no i am not saying that if you cannot operate a firearm that you are a fool. no no & no.

    If I were in possession of a firearm and didn't know how to use it (or weren't prepared to, if for protection), then god help me. Fuck knows I couldn't help me.

    everyone might wanna try & load the clips for the rifle used by the u.s. in WWII & korean wars.

    300px-M1_Garand_rifle_-_USA_-_30-06_-_Arm%C3%A9museum.jpg

    the m1 garand is a piece of american history in your hands. dad had one & it was a solid hoot to shoot & a miracle to load the clips for. thousands of people smashed their thumbs in the chamber when loading it giving the gun the nickname m1 thumb.

    it takes a few days time to get the hang of filling the clips. i am amazed we were even capable of fighting in those wars & having any kind of success at killing another human being.

    these rifles fire with bucket loads of sand & dirt dumped in them. they are very accurate & go for very long distances.

    the clip holds eight .30-06 rounds.

    every single 10c member and every single u.s. citizen should (for their own education on this subject) take a firearms course at their local firing range. it is for your own good. i feel you can add better & clear to a debate if you no more about the topic.

    i can't add to a topic on 3sums because i have not ever participated nor wish too. i cannot debate fully nor elect to throw it out if i have not had a homosexual experience.

    i firmly believe many here would be better off fully knowing they can defend their loved ones 29 minutes quicker than the cops who are over 20 miles away. maybe the lawmen are actually only 1 minute away. in 1 single minute or second bad things happen.

    at this exact moment i feel like a doorknob for not owning a gun.

    I think opinions can be thrown in the ring though (hell knows I've got more than a nickel's worth to toss in on various subjects, menages a trois included!)

    A shooting lesson is likely in my future - something I'll probably try at some point - and while I don't feel bad for not owning a gun, I see no reason for me not to, should I choose to do so.
  • No to all..But I have handled a rifle..an M16A2..load and unload, break it down and put it back together..Was in the Marine Corps and earned expert marksmanship.

    here is your safety course

    1. always treat a gun as if it is loaded
    2. never point a gun at something you don't wish to shoot
