As long as you're not fucking the losers, bro. Have some self-respect. hahaha

If you're taking me sport "climbing", I'm taking you shooting.

Flip side of that is that it is easier to defend yourself as a 72-year old woman when a would be thief breaks into your house at 2 am (actually happened).

Friends that have lived overseas have been happy to return. Friends that have moved here from other countries don't want to leave. Think about it. Personally, I want to leave. How utterly shocking is that? I must be an anomaly in the stats. So go. I will help you pack, seriously. I'd love to; if you're not happy here, I'd love to help you get to where you would be.

Are you a man or a mouse? He sounds like a greasy cheeseburger... SOme people love a good 'greasy' burger. That would be implying there is something good about trask. Maybe just greasy ! Hey, I'll stick up for the bastard. He's good people. This comes from someone who's actually met him, sat across from him and shared a beer. Those of you spouting shit can bite off.

Yes yes yes - thanks - I love that song! I was in love with bananarama... Especially the one in the red patent leather bodysuit for the video of their cover of Shocking Blue's (a 1-Hit wonder that we left out of last week's discussion) "Venus". Uh, weren't we all.

chivo!?!? I have no idea what you said, but I'm guessing you disagree. Fact is, the most likely cause of death for black youth in the U.S. is gunfire. If there were no guns, this would not be the case. The NRA promotes gun ownership and thus helps to propogate gun ownership, and the slew of disheartening statistics that follow said ownership. Don't misrepresent your opinion, or someone else's editorial comment, as fact. If it wasn't guns, it'd be bats or knives or such. Because the NRA promotes RESPONSIBLE gun ownership does not make them responsible for the actions of individuals who obtain guns in a less than legal way. Besides, Great Britain outlawed handguns but there are plenty to be had in the hands of the criminals over there.

Wrong, fucko, I've been there. Worry about how you would react and I'll ponder how I will. Don't concern yourself with what I will or won't do; it's none of your business.

For your information, Charleton Heston has stepped down as President of the NRA due to his diagnosis with the onset of Alzheimer's Disease. Kayne Robinson has been appointed President in his stead. Further, the "pro-gun rally" you purport took place, in fact, DID NOT. The NRA Annual Meeting (which was scheduled at least a year prior) did take place in Denver or C.S., I can't remember which. Get your facts straight, MR. Gowans Greg

Because I said so, now go to your room. (Not too shocking that I got that a lot as a child)

Or the breakins at Exit 38 (wherever that is).

'Cause it's proper fucked, that's why.

I never go anywhere looking for a fight. "Discretion is the better part of valor," as they say. use some then. i have a gun blah blah blah..i am american blah blah blah....i'll fight annd kill and win.blah blah blah.. Behold...the male version of allison/marylou...just as annoying, nonsensical, and just as pointless to talk to. You are fucking ponderous, man; I don't get your brand of shit.

that is why people will continue to attack... if people had enough backbone to stand up for themselves, none of this would happen... pussies like this dont want to fight... they just want to intimidate... and popel like you let them... take your beating like a man and stand up for yourself and end the violence by using some Uh, moron, if 20 guys approach your scrawny ass I'd advise running. In that situation, it may be the best thing to do.

I'm sure this is a troll for me, but I don't care. NOWHERE in this article is the NRA mentioned. This is a terrible tragedy. Why politicize it? The loss of life in a senseless manner such as this is nothing to use as a springboard for your gun-hating diatribe. Have some fucking respect. I'm serious. I am not going to enter a huge drawn out debate on-line about this. I will be more than happy to talk about this incident and gun rights at tonight's pub club...armed with only my wits and brain...spray on that, bitches, go ahead. Greg_W

I never said that your above quote isn't the posture I take. Read my post about being low-key. OF COURSE situational awareness is paramount in everyday life; something I practice regularly. What you read as bravado is only passion for life.

You're wrong, Erik. I just don't roll over like you. I passionately believe in my right to protect myself and am willing to stand up for that. Why be a victim? We are NOT exactly what we are talking about because we are not going looking to do harm, only defending our lives.

Mine take work, too. Plus, how fucking boring of a thread would that be? We're all here to be entertained. To quote Oscar Winning performance of Maximus, "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?" Baby you are so right! It would be rather boring and harmonious... So leave the others for home,eh. Maybe you need a good beating! LATER Spray on - you do a damn good job of 'getting the goat' - poor trask might lonely! Tease.

Neither of your Petzls work for shit, man. Everytime we go out they don't work. I saw the Tikka Plus recently and it looks like an improvement of the Tikka (which I like). If I get another one, I'd look at the Tikka Plus; PMS has them, I think.

greg- i think everyone agrees with you on the self preservation thing what people might take exception to is your tone which seems to advocate violence as a means of controlling juevenile delinquency. we'd rather see these punks spend some really boring time in reform school than having bullets flying at all hours at the local campground. flying bullets don't always find their mark on the appropriately guilty parties (collateral damage if you will). and then there's the noise. Can't take guns into Canada, numbnuts. I am pretty low-key when I'm out and about, as friends will attest. I don't look for trouble. However, when it comes there's no point in fighting fair. If they come to dance, then they get what they deserve; juvenile or not. Apparently they are old enough to make the decision to prey on strangers. They get no sympathy from me.
