Tee hee! "Be warned this forum is not for the thin skinned." This means you.

Dear KKK, For once, do us all a favor and quit being such a pussy. Thanks! -Superman

Jeezus Christ. Speaking of douchebags, this thread reads like a who's who of alpine vagisils. Starring: Frenchy as Mr. Reacharound Pete_H as The Gratuitous Tailgunner and in the starring role, Rob as King Dingleberry, ruler of the Chutney Ferrets. An all-star cast to be sure.

In a world chock-full of shitbirds, an eagle is born. Micah, you are a definite standup dude.

Sweet pics, and nice hike! Giving due credit to the original Ptarmigans, however, it's important to note that they actually climbed 10 peaks on the original traverse. Not to take anything away from your speed record, but I think that's where the meat of the trip lies. Did you guys climb anything, or was this just a hike?

Whoa, slow your roll brah. I think Off_White was taking your side.

Josh, do you ever have anything to say that isn't completely idiotic?

blah blah global warming blah blah

Sweet! Could it have been a Fisher that got the porcupine? After all, you were in Fisher Creek. http://www.nhptv.org/natureworks/fisher.htm http://www.geocities.com/bobarnebeck/ppines.htm

Have you seen the forecast? Bring an umbrella would be my advice.

Rawkus, brah. Fuckin totally tubular!!

Surely you can't be.

Are you serious?

Yes we've established that only law-abiding and sane citizens should have guns, so I'm still trying to figure out how you've contributed to our discussion mr mace?

Batteries for your headlamp aren't considered a separate essential last I checked.

Maybe there should be eleven essentials?

Let's not confuse the issues, Gary. Although I agree with your statement that you should only carry a gun in the woods if you are carrying the ten essentials as well. I'd take it a step further and say that you shouldn't be going in the woods without the ten essentials, regardless of whether or not you're carrying a gun. I feel safer with a gun. It's great to be American.

So your argument is that since it's not likely to happen, then you're wrong to carry a gun in order to prevent it? If so, I gotta admit, that's a stupid argument. If that's not your argument, then what exactly is your point?

No, he's just confused. Carry on.

Yeah, because everyone knows that anyone who owns a gun would do just that. Buncha right-wing whackos!!!

It's weird ... the last time I got a speeding ticket my car wasn't fined. It didn't even have to appear in front of the Judge! Crazy.

Exactly my point.

I could never understand why people lock their doors at night. I mean, maybe if you have a restraining order out on someone but sheesh. What a fearful society we live in.

I guess the NRA doesn't speak plain English? But alas, there goes that liberal logic again. Take away all the guns from people and make the world a safe, cozy, quaint little place. Wrong. We'd all be safer if all law-abiding citizens owned a gun. Do you think the meth addict might think twice about breaking into granny's house if they know she's packing heat? Hint: Yes. If we ban guns, only the criminals will have them. I don't know about you, but to me that sounds a little unfair. Swimming pools are dangerous. Babies are dying every year by drowning in swimming pools. Never mind better parental supervision, we should just ban pools to make things safe. Climbing is a dangerous sport. People are dying every year from falling. We should outlaw climbing to make the world a safer place. If it saves one child...

I, and millions of other Americans, say you're wrong. Regardless of your interpretation of the Second Amendment... the fact remains that I carry a pistol every day, and I am allowed by law to do so. Not only that, I can and will use said pistol if I am in fear of imminent bodily harm. No amount of semantics can get around that.
