Another story isn't really mine, but will give you an idea of our lifestyle.
In the late 80s many of us had muscle cars. There was a quarter mile strip on Baker Street in Busti NY where we raced. Sometimes there were a dozen cars there.
One time Pete in his built 1970 Chevelle, challenged Tony...
Ohh, there was a lot of car racing. From 86-89 I built and raced dirt track cars with a few friends. But that's not what you meant of course. In 1987 I worked at Ponderosa Steakhouse JUST to have enough money to build a street car. I bought a 79 Camero and joined it with a 427 crate motor a...
I wasnt the best kid growing up. My parents were absolute saints. My dad was extremely strict. They were both school teachers. My dad taught 6th grade for 52 years, he didnt take crap from kids!
He was the most requested teacher for over 30 years. Former students requested he be their kids...
Times sure do change. I went to Cornell in 1993 and graduated in 1996. There were a lot of liberals, but almost no snowflakes. They bitched about the environment and foreign wars, but there were no "woke" people like today. I was a very conservative/libertarian guy, but nobody yelled or...
Nope, SC are rarely violent. They simply believe that as free people, they shouldn't have to follow arbitrary laws, or abide by laws pertaining to victimless crimes.
They are absolutely wrong in every single way. Many blacks claim to be indigenous Moorish Sovereign citizens. The whites have just...
Thank you, but she was very sick for a very long time. It was honestly a blessing. But my parents were married for 60 years, now hes in our big family house alone. They always planned to travel the world when they retired. Now my dad goes alone, its kind of sad. In January he went on a 2 week...
First of all, it will not happen.
Second, "assault rifles" are not banned in NYS. You can go buy one today. Unless the court addresses the "features" aspect, this would do nothing for NYS.
The only cases ive seen before the courts are full out "assault weapon" bans, like in Illinois...
As a fellow adopted kid, I can say we dont all turn out bad. My brother, sister and I were all adopted as infants. We have the absolute best parents we could have had, and im personally happy my birth mom gave me up. I wouldn't have traded my privileged life for anything. My parents are my REAL...
NERF could really make a lot of cash in England.
A safe and LEGAL way to get out aggression, assault people, commit robberies, use in home invasions......
Dang, I should work in marketing!
"extreme risk protection order support".
This should go well. Emotional 12-17 year old kids can now "red flag" their parents when they get angry.
Remember, a health care professional can have your firearms "temporarily" removed from your home with one phone call.
An angry 12 year old in the ER...
Its pretty clear you have no idea what a "Sovereign Citizen" is. Nothing mentioned in this post falls under SC nonsense. The "I didn't sign a contract" thing isnt something only believed by SC. As "free" people we should be allowed to opt out. Give away all government involvement. Stop paying...
How adorable that people believe this is even a possibility.
Does anyone here know that state reciprocity laws to allow carry across state lines have been being proposed sinse the 1970s?
Yep, every so often a legislator "unveils a bill".....for over 50 years.
Also, sinse at least the early 1990s...
Not going to happen. Anything short of cloning Clarence Thomas to build a permanent SCOTUS of Clarence Thomas' we are screwed.
Ive actually hear him say he wished they could hold politicians accountable for their blatant disobedience and rights infringements. But he is one man. Im not even sure...
I bought some new shoes for my Spyderco Native 5. The FRN scales it came with are fine, but I wanted something different.
These are PLA-CF (carbon fiber reinforced)3d printed scales from Hi-Poly Designs.
Heres the original scales.
Yep, my uncle Rich ordered a bolt action 22lr from a catalog when he was 13. My grandma gave him the check, but the gun was sent to Rich....a 13 year old kid. He is now 90 years old, has owned dozens of guns, yet never shot anyone....or anything for that matter.
On a much smaller scale, that's CLOSE to what we have here in WNY. All my neighbors have the same mindset as me. Our closest neighbors just moved in last year. He is the son of the elderly couple who lived there for decades. Its him, his wife, and 2 daughters. I dont know them well, but they...
Another reason we might keep the line is that when everything is down....electricity, internet...our 1970s rotary phone still works. Im not sure how satellite works if power is out. Unless the line falls, the 70s tech keeps working. :)
Ive heard its pretty good. The problem is that our closest neighbor and I paid a lot of money to get the lines run to our homes. We have no cell service, and no cable access. At the time internet did not go out this far. We paid $2400 to have poles installed and lines put up. The company...
Im pretty sure many around my area wouldn't even notice for a few days. I live in the middle of a Swartsentruber Amish community. No electricity, no plumbing, no cheating. They literally live like its 300 years ago. Our house is ALMOST completely off grid. We have one cable wrapped around one...
I always think back to what Sheriff Joe Clark said about Minneapolis back in 2016ish.
He said if he could "remove" just 30 certain individuals in Minneapolis, murder would drop by 90+%.
He said even though there are hundreds of gang members, its a very small amount of them committing murder. And...
The last time I was forced to go to Canada, it was shocking. We went over the Peace Bridge in Niagara Falls. The US side of Niagara Falls is a ghost town. Very few people, and very few businesses anymore.
The Canada side you are greeted by weed shops, strip clubs, sex workers, bums, and sex...
I might be a bit more agreeable with taxes if more of the money went towards mental institutions and prisons, instead of illegal aliens and social justice.
MAKE LOONEY BINS GREAT AGAIN!
NYS is absolutely disgusting. Not only do you need a NICS check for antique firearms, but you need one for black powder firearms as of Sept 2022.
And, you need a NYSP background check for ammunition. Every time you purchase ammo in NYS, the dealer is required to KEEP YOUR INFORMATION ON FILE...
I believe there is a bit of nuance needed in this conversation. One side, Red or Blue, cannot "overthrow" the government because they dont like how the current administration is doing things. This is where we are now.
But, if the government went WAY overboard and unequivocally started not only...
I mean every able body male capable of operating a rifle. If 35,000 armed fighters with no "rules" go to Milwaukee, the national guard will refuse to stop them. These leftists want mob rule, and anarchy? Well, I personally know a couple hundred current and former military guerillas who can...
Well, first they would have to understand "their ways" of course. Most leftists are so controlled by the media for their views, they contradict themselves almost daily.
Have you seen that most leftists are now super pro concealed carry? After the dude got shot by ICE ONLY because he was CCing...
For someone who snowblows a 120 yard driveway, and in front of my mailbox, and cuts trails in the yard for my puny dog, electric just isnt viable. Its 1.5- 2 hours of constant use. Obviously the ones proposing this have a single car driveway.
Im predicting a huge Red Wave for the midterms. Then Vance is elected in 2028. The illegals will choose to self deport. Then all anti gun laws will be repealed, and replaced with pro gun laws. I predict the left will realize the error of their ways, and vote Red in all upcoming elections. The...
Patel is more worried about making social media posts, and defending his girlfriend from her alleged Massad shenanigans.
The guy is goofy as Pee Wee Herman if you listen to him talk. He's a bozo.
Dan probably sees things going very wrong, so hes getting out.
The problem in Canada is that the government runs the program.
Here in the US they just need to quietly allow it, then get the fuck out of people's business.
I watched a news investigation about Canada's assisted suicide. They actually allow, and almost encourage poor people, and homeless to use...
In Rugers defense, that was Bill Ruger. Sinse then the current owners have said MANY times that is NOT their current stance. Being able to buy magazines of all types, and rifles from Ruger, marketed to civilians is pretty good proof. I have 3 Rugers, so im no fan boy, but fair is fair.
The only thing that makes this sound real is that hes black. If it were planned, wouldn't they make him a redneck white guy with a mullet?
OR, maybe that's what they think we would think, so they made him black to make it seem less like a setup....reverse psychology!
OR, they thought that we...
Hey, ive been preaching this here and other places with extreme push back. I was banned on Facebook because I simply said that NOBODY is refused care in emergency rooms. And that many illegals are using ERs as their doctor. This was in response to a post senator Gillibrand posted saying...
I believe in the previous post from @livingston the poster confused ILLEGAL immigrants with NON CITIZENS, which that data seems to support.

Here is from the National Immigration Forum. Im not sure how honest they are, but here they say it is possible for illegals to get SNAP in certain circumstances. As we know, states like NY and California will bend rules to make "certain circumstances" more readily available.
"Undocumented...
My local guy went from $35 to $50 a couple years ago. But does the $35 if you're transferring more than one firearm.
He's in Frewsburg NY if it helps at all.
I used to hunt deer with my Marlin 30-30 lever gun, it was a lot of fun. I live in a very hilly area full of brush, so shots over 50 yards are very rare. These days I just use my Mossberg 500 12 gauge with rifled slugs through a smooth barrel. Thats where I started 40 years ago, and still my...
You are correct.
I had a pretty bad situation 3 years ago.
Like an idiot, I sat way to close to my neighbors property. I have a LOT of land, but I chose to sit where I did.
First light of opening day I shot a huge 10 point buck. The shot hit a little high, and the deer ran off down a hill, onto...
My wife says in the picture I posted above, it looks like the deer is sitting up. That is just an illusion, but it DOES look like he is alive!
He is very dead, and laying completely flat on the ground. :)
Here is something I found funny while seeing if there were any new hunting regulations. I inquired about using my glock 20 for deer, which I've used before.
This is from the wise knowledge bank of AI. Almost everything is incorrect. :)
