Should Cyclists Pack Guns?

If in doubt, shoot!
"Bill" wrote Nuking Tehran is something I have been thinking about. Baghdad too. This Viet Nam in the sand **** is getting old. Good thinking. So far your list looks like this: First: invade the wrong small mid-eastern country for fabricated reasons. Second: declare "Mission Accomplished" several decades early. Third: act puzzled and hurt when the people you've just ground into the dirt refuse to lick your boots and form the stable puppet government you had in mind. Fourth: refuse to admit that you ever made any mistakes, but keep changing the reasons you claim we're there. Fifth: attack anyone on your own side who dares to disagree with you in any way, claiming that they want to surrender to the terrorists. Sixth: after everything else has failed; contemplate making the whole thing 100% worse by nuking Baghdad and Teheran without provocation. Bill, you're wonderful! I can't imagine how President Bush missed getting you onto that crack White-House team of strategists that have made the world into such a wonderful place in a mere six years! |

Nope it's AF / Hemmingway's 1 every 4 hours and one of that nasty looking backwoods every hour. Throw a brisket on the smoker/grill relax with some Celis wheat or Foster Bitters and MotoGp on the satellite. -- Keith Schiffner History does not record anywhere at any time a religion that has any rational basis. Religion is a crutch for people not strong enough to stand up to the unknown without help. But, like dandruff, most people do have a religion and spend time and money on it and seem to derive considerable pleasure from fiddling with it. Robert Heinlein |

Sixth: after everything else has failed; contemplate making the whole thing 100% worse by nuking Baghdad and Teheran without provocation. WITHOUT???? provocation??? Bill, you're wonderful! I can't imagine how President Bush missed getting you onto that crack White-House team of strategists that have made the world into such a wonderful place in a mere six years! I voted for Gore in 2000, and Kerry in 2004. If the rest of the voters want Bush, then we have a messy war on our hands. I remember the whole Viet Nam thing too and heard rumors that Johnson was getting so frustrated he was contemplating that kind of force. Viet Nam was such a mess that he chose to get out of the white house in 1968 and we got Nixon. Nixon, Bush, same kind of animal. Bill Baka |

Uh, speargun? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speargun Al Moore DoD 734 I've got one of those things! Came with the last boat my dad bought. Tough to get the band back & plenty touchy once you do, but a grand toy all the same. I spent an hour in the yard with it when he first got it, not too inaccurate once you get the hang. I've yet to have the need to repel any boarders, but I'm ready! I do think it'd be tough to handle on a jet ski, however. Glock makes a couple guns that are supposed to fire underwater, so I'm sure they'd take well to firing above water after being wet. I read the HK Mk 23 SOCOM is designed for special ops where it's liable to be swam through salt water before being used, and is resistant to said salt water. This would be a good choice for sal****er use. Remember, one in the chamber with safety off at all times, and only shoot when the gun is sideways and you can't see down the sights. |
