Expected, but nonetheless disheartening:

I think I'll take my lady up to the mountain cabin and anesthetize myself a bit with a single malt beverage of considerable age.

Good idea. Going to High Falls and maybe do the same thing. See if I can find a big container. :)
-
Very disheartening.

I have actually heard people say "why vote? one more or less isn't going to matter", or in the case of the NRA, "one more member isn't going to make a difference". They're wrong of course. But when we allow this complacency to set in, then we end up with people like Obama sneaking in to steal our freedoms. The bastards don't let up for a second. So, we had better not either. Gene

I think Alexander Hamilton said it rather well:
"The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed."
-
He was certainly well armed.

Jesus said it well: He that hath no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. Luke 22:36
Thomas Jefferson: We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home.

If I sold enough of my garments to buy a Rohrbaugh, I may be arrested for indecent exposure. :o ;D

Yes, but he would have been well advised to put in a little more range time before that duel with Aaron Burr.
-
That is good advice to this day.

John. The verse says, sell A garment. :)
-
Since when could you buy a sword for a garment?
-
Read your Bible, there tracker! :)

I don't have any Armani's, and garments made in sweat shops in India for WalMart and have little or no value. So I'll have no Rohrbaugh or sword that way. ;D

Say amen.
-
OK, John. I hear ya! ;D ;D
-
I think that the true meaning of that scripture is in the spiritual sense instead of the physical exchange; an excellent thought. Kind of like "Onward Christian Soldiers."
-
I thought you may find the meaning there, tracker. Excellent.
-
Thank you, o learned one.
-
Anytime there, Tom!
-
You have the final word.

The gentleman from Texas. Thanks.
