Not me brother. Scallops was dangerous enough for me. Those dudes are crazy. I've put up with makos and marlins coming into the boat wanting to mess us up, cobia trying to break our legs when brought in too green while tearing the deck up, but what those guys do is nuts. Mike

I worked pound nets for years and did a couple of trips on scallop boats. Blue crabbed during the season and oystered in the winters. Ran a deep sea boat for a few seasons. I loved it all. If I was younger I'd go back to some of it. Didn't have the luxury of hotels, just hard, but to me fantastic, satisfying work. Mike

Can be done without the belt loop too. Takes a little practice and it's not very accurate but like you say, a ton of fun. Not sure I'd want to do it with a .308 or 6.5 creed but .223/5.56 works fine. Mike

The snowflakes are wailing about the amount of NRA money in politics, it's dwarfed by the UNIONS!

"The Supreme Court is about to hear the biggest labor case of the century"
- The Washington Post


It's crunch-time, Friend.

The oral arguments for the Foundation's "biggest labor case of the century" are this coming Monday at the Supreme Court.

And the stakes couldn't be any higher.

If your Foundation is successful in our Janus v. AFSCME case to free every government employee from the shackles of forced unionism, it would strike a blow to Big Labor's forced-dues empire.

One of Big Labor's websites even suggested it would usher in a "Right to Work nation."

Of course, Congress still needs to pass the National Right to Work Act to ensure ALL workers enjoy the same freedom to work without being forced to join a union or pay union dues as work requirement.

But granting MILLIONS of public sector workers the same right to voluntarily choose to join, or not join a union, without fear of being fired as workers currently in Right to Work states enjoy will be a massive defeat for union bosses and their forced-dues-funded political powerhouse.

The fact is, Big Labor uses forced-dues dollars to fund a massive political machine that reaches into Congress, every state house, most city halls, police stations, firehouses and school districts across the country.

So it comes as no surprise that Senators Elizabeth Warren and Chuck Schumer have joined union bosses in attacking your Foundation's Janus case in the press and on the Senate floor.

As AFSCME union boss Naomi Walker wailed, "The progressive infrastructure in this country, from think tanks to advocacy organizations -- which depends on the resources and engagement of workers and their unions -- will crumble."

Of course, our fight to free workers from the chains of forced unionism transcends politics.

The Foundation has been eliminating coercive union power and compulsory unionism abuses through strategic litigation, public information and education programs since 1968.

LJ, if you go back to the different shooting, all the way back to Waco and Ruby Ridge and check the weeks headlines, what do you see? I have a tendency to trust smart women's intuitions. Mike

Mueller is the hired gun no doubt.. There for damage control and nothing more.. They do not have a case Against Trump, the DNC even admitting it earlier on..

I don’t think even Mueller knows what Obamas real intent was when in office and what it is now out of office. Now that man is pure evil!

I heard a rather sick innuendo that just as things were getting very heavy over the dossier and the charges of only the Russians that some speculate the travesty of the shooting of all those children was another ploy used to divert attention away from the daily hits the dems were taking.. At first I thought it Preposterous.....As I have thought of this I can not as readily dismiss it.. ????

Penny, I think in the end Mueller has so damaged himself that he will be thrown under the bus and may end up taking a sledge hammer to some rocks. He was up to his neck in the uranium one thing as well as all of the Russian collusion thing. This stuff goes back to at least 2014. President Trump didn't even declare until late 2016, early 2017. This whole thing is on BHO and company. Mike

There is just so far that he could go without people taking notice that he was commissioned to find our President guilty of wrongdoing and have it so severe that impeachment was the only choice. If too many people caught on to him, he would be in danger of losing his livelihood, so having no evidence against the President, he had no way to save face if he continued the Russiagate. So, now he will attack from a different angle and chase another dead end to appease the Democrats. If that fails and I have no doubt it will fail, he will still have his job. If he can sling enough mud at our President, they they think they have a chance of regaining the White House in 2020. Another "guaranteed" winner, just like k**lary. Again, they are not counting on the people who do recognize a winner and will v**e to reelect President Donald Trump....

Is Mueller evil? I don't think so. I believe that he works for the Democratic agenda and still holds allegiance to obama. Does that make him evil.... no, it makes him obama's "hired gun." And that puts him at odds with the oath FBI agents take when they are hired.

My daughter's high school had 4 temporary "Assistant Principles" who wore side arms but in civilian clothes. One was stationed at every door in the morning. After classes started all but the main entrance doors were locked, BUT could be opened from the inside in case of fire. That in it's self was a weakness but what are ya going to do? Anyway, her school was run with an iron fist and all of the kids and parents knew it and appreciated it. Mike

Hey, Petey, did you hear the Florida kids speaking today? I felt sorry for them in that I don't think they wrote the speeches they read. I really didn't like hearing them blame the NRA for that shooting, but somebody who wrote their speeches didn't like the NRA. One of those kids intimated that those kids would defeat some of their legislators, but I doubt that enough of them will v**e in 2018 and by the time of our upcoming e******n people will have moved on looking for the next "gun free zone" shooting. Till today I hadn't realized that the coaches who were k**led were also hired to take care of things like this. Yep one of the kids said this very thing.

I think that the best way to react to this shooting would be to equip some teachers with guns and regular practice with them and training for taking care of shooters. I really don't think most of those "mental cases" are so out of it that they would take a chance if they knew that those teachers would be out shooting at them.

Not so. Anyone can possess a fully automatic firearm provided they have the prerequisite federal license. Same for explosives. It's the same old story of government denying an inherent right to the populace then selling it back for a fee. For instance, ever go fishing?

Check this out, an Uzi full auto into watermelons:

Wow, so you really don't need anything more than your semi automatic and learning to keep your finger stationary.. A bit of adjusting from traditional fire..

I would have to learn to readjust but do believe I could.... liked the shoulder position just don’t use the shoulder or it won’t recoil~~

Thank You I book marked the video so I can check more out about it.. like not beating myself up when shooting, just to perfect the ability..

Just read this article~~ thought you and the rest may want to see what it says??

Donald Trump ordered US attorney general Jeff Sessions to “propose regulations to ban all devices to turn legal weapons into machine guns” today. He was referring to so-called bump stock devices which can modify a semi-automatic rifle to fire as many as 800 bullets per minute.

Trump’s statement comes amid rising calls for gun control in the US, after 17 students were k**led last week in Parkland, Florida by a former classmate armed with a semi-automatic weapon. But the change Trump is proposing wouldn’t have had any impact on the Florida shooting, which didn’t involve a bump stock.

More broadly, the Department of Justice can’t just ban such devices, its own officials have said in recent months.

Trump laid the responsibility today directly on Sessions during a press conference in the White House. “I expect that these critical regulations will be finalized, Jeff, very soon,” Trump said, speaking to the attorney general:

The Department of Justice’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) has been reviewing whether adding a bumpstock makes a gun a “machine gun” since last December, after a gunman armed with multiple weapons outfitted with bumpstocks k**led 58 people and injured over 800 in Las Vegas. Fully automatic weapons, or machine guns, are illegal in the US, but semiautomatic weapons like the AR-15 used in the Florida shooting are not.

“We will go through the regulatory process that is required by law and we will be attentive to input from the public,” Sessions said at the time. Of the over 36,000 public comments the ATF got on the proposal, 85% were against reclassifying bumpstock-modified weapons as “machine guns,” The Trace found.

Since then, DOJ and ATF officials have said publicly and privately that banning bump stocks could note be achieved unilaterally. They argue that Congress needs to pass legislation in order to reclassify bumpstocks in the US, the New York Times reported (paywall). The ATF “could not find a way to classify it as a machine gun,” in 2010, a former official told The Trace.

After a mass shooting in Las Vegas last year, a bill to ban bumpstocks was re-introduced in October. However, this stalled after speaker of the House Paul Ryan said the ATF, not Congress, should be responsible for the issue. It’s unclear whether Trump’s support for the idea would be enough to get legislation passed in Congress this time around.

Meanwhile, Florida state legislators today v**ed down a bill that would ban assault rifles, as students from the Parkland high school looked on....
