A public forum is no place to talk about such things. Do what you think is right.

Carry on.

30 round mags, grab one or two every time you walk into the gun shop, it'll atleast make you feel better until they send in terminator4000 to drag you out and send you to reeducation camp.

Nope, I have never even seen one. They were designed to be as cheap as possible and to be used to kill an enemy and take their weapon.

I think if you don't own a 22lr suppressor yet you need one. run the subsonic ammo and well I think it will make you smile when you realize how quiet it is.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

^^^^…. You give them people any kind of weapon… they’d likely just use it against the people next to them that don’t wear their turban just right or something

… we have no business being involved in those holy wars over there

…. In fact we need to spend that money on sending the ones that are in the USA and in Europe back home

Yep, I heard the bullets my son's shot thumping the squirrels today more distinct than the shots when I heard anything at all.

Somewhat true, but those that don't have a chance to fight, might apricate it.

It's coming here, and any day now those of us ready are going to make the difference.
We won't go down like the Persiaran's did in 1979.

Think about it, we are taking our own side, if we don't , who's going to?
Europe is almost all Muslim now, All that's left is a couple countries like Poland .
So who is going to do anything?

Wait and see? If a threat is at your doorstep , are you going to fight or run?

Anyway some white boy just got stoned and almost beat to death for being in a crowd and saying praise jesus or some such thing. The cops pulled him into a cruiser to save his life as someone was beating him in the head with a stone. Seems like that would be a pretty standard self defense position. Plenty of cameras rolling. Three four pistols maybe, extra mags. Sure seems like a guy could get some work done should he have to go about defending himself. Nothing says you have to be alone when you defend yourself. You can have friends. They can defend themselves as well. Maybe its time for a good lesson in american civil rights. Self defense is important. Especially when supporting your second amendment right which of course follows forum guidelines.

…yeah we just talk about it these days … it was a good run I guess

.. we’re so divided at this point there’s no future… it’s gonna be what it’s gonna be I guess

There was no turning the other cheek when we won our independence.

…. I was at the fair with my girlfriend and one of them grabbed their crotch and called her a “puta” for no reason whatsoever

… of course I split his eyebrow open and he dropped

…. But they followed me… and he squared up with his white tank top and tan dickies soaked in blood

… I just tackled him and went to wailing on him at that point

… but his hombres didn’t jump in ?

…. I’m still not sure if they scared of me or worried about law bearin down in em

… but anyhow… I protected my girl and walked away victorious lol

So did I , but they could care less about the workers.
Who are you talking about, not me.

Why work the same job, and get the same pay, while another does nothing and still get the same pay?
Maybe you worry about other people too much. I just got things done and worked whenever I wanted to.

Why are companies going to Mexico, or other countries ?
I setup the plants in Saltillo Mexico. Flew through Monterey. Theres three plants there now. 1.5 time after 40 double time on Sundays and holidays. 13 paid holidays.

Why did you have to pay someone to get into an automotive job?
What are you talking about? I built millions of automotive parts. I probably made the radiator or HVAC in your truck.

Unions were a good thing until the mafia got involved.
I never had any back room deal anywhere nor did anyone I know.

Unions never did me a favor, just made me a pawn like the rest of the people in it.
If you made OT that isn't true. You made that OT b/c you were in a union. I can't speak ill of them like that. Raised my kids.

Made my job harder because I had to carry those that wouldn't do their job.
Then go work somewhere else.

Most were out on workers comp, and as soon as they came back, got hurt again.
Our plant was plagued with FMLA. Thats federal, not union. People missing work for fake health has nothing to do with a union.

Yes unions were good for the workers until the mafia got control of them.
I think we covered this already.

Instead of carrying your own weight, you had to carry 3-4 people on your back.
I worked in an actual LEAN plant. We turned a failing big 3 auotomotive company into a well ran worldwide German automotive supplier.
Had you used you LEAN production board correctly all you had to do was write tasks on it, assign people name to it, get things done, and move people out of your way.
People to stubborn to change got left behind.

Why have a union when you can talk to your employer , and get raises on your own merit, and not have to carry the dead beats!
I worked in a 1.2M sq ft facility with 1200 people. My employer was an old lady in Gernany that inherited one of the largest automotive suppliers in the world when her husband died.

Not sure what you are talking about. I worked in a plant for 20 years six and seven days a week 10-12 hours +. I wasn't allowed to work without a manager on site. The managers did not make overtime. I have no idea why you think they did.

Because the managers are salaried and waiving their right to OT was part of the contract they signed when accepting the job. All hourly workers MUST be paid overtime for any hours worked over 40.

Mathmatically you are correct though. They pay OT workers less an hour bc they are going to make OT. 4 hours on sunday is a 20% raise.

Here are the laws. https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/overtime

Yes I know all hourly workers in a union shop are union UNLESS it's a right to work state.

I turned down the most money I'd ever been offered when I found it was a union job. No thanks.

Contract, acceptance of offer paperwork, call it what you want.

Love ya. When we brought him home from the hospital it was our first night staying in that house. On the way to the hospital the Mrs was b-ing about not having a refrigerator to keep breast milk in. I told her I'd take care of it. She had no idea how. She was from Philadelphia. She went to HS with those JackA** kids that mad that movie. She'd say well they didn't really go to school. Their senior prank was putting cows on the roof of the school. They had to use a crane to take them down, they wouldn't go down the stairs they went up. They came to school and cow patties were in the hallway. Anyway we pulled into Sears where a guy I went to HS withs mom worked. She picked out a fridge and I had them deliver it and told them the door was unlocked and when we came back from the hospital there it sat.

I worked all night the night before he was born. I fell asleep in the waiting room. They took us back and I laid on the floor against the wall on the other side of the room and slept. The nurse kicked me and said it was time to get up. I went over and caught him coming out. The Dr was like are you good and I was like I think I will be fine and I was down there on the business end with him and he was impressed. When she woke up I was eating biscuits and gravy from the cafe.

You know... making that awful union OT. smile

I have no idea what any of that has to do with the conversation but glad you were there for the birth of your child I guess? Just like any non-union worker would have been? You know, like CSK?

Ps they never asked if i wanted to be in a union. I didnt know i was in a union. I was in a union bc of the position I filled. Engineers there were unionized. I didnt have any say in it and i didnt have to sign a contract either. There was a contract between us and management and ibwas just automatically part of it.

Not once. I spent millions of dollars a month they could afford to pay me ot after hiring an electrical engineer for less than 80k while managers were making 150. Maybe if you got that job youd be able to afford that house you talk about your generation cant afford.

IUE CWA 755 758. You can probably google our union. Dayton was the inly automotive town that was automotive not in the UAW. GM was grandfathered in UAW. Or maybe said better my Chrysler plant was grandfathered IUE CWA.

I don't recall what I said about housing?

I do think housing prices are ridiculous and glad I don't have to buy one today.

But don't remember what exactly I said or even what thread it was on.

Some contractor pulled into the plant grounds between the buildings at the chrysler plant and when he came back outside a forklift had put it in a dumpster. I drove a ford and had to park in the back lot. Company policy.

Back to gun control. Firearms are not the protection against tyranny they once were. Whats your AR or even 375 going to do against drones or robots?

Danny...the voice of reason!, lol

Guns are great, love em, but in a real SHTF scenario, you ain't got a chance... not when there's no back up, Govt will just call you a criminal and eliminate you, and don't count on the police , they're the eliminators....

Best you can hope for is to take a few with you.

We need shotguns that shoot nets for drones if you been watching the videos. A swarm of drones your hosed as far as i can tell.

Locally we had drones here back when all the chicken houses were burning down. It was kind of wild.

Not sure about dogs. But I can say without a doubt, my cows in the pasture can hear and see the ones they use around here to spray crops way before I can. They will be out eating then one by one they stop eating and start star gazing. Shortly after I will see and hear what they do. G.

I had steel workers working for me. Contractors. Hard workers. They were my grunts getting things done. One of our operators called a short guy with a mullet a wussy with a p passing him in the aisle and the steelworker turned around and chased him down. I had tobjump in between them and explain to our dipstick that he wouldnt walk passed a construction site and call everyone that bc youd get beat down and these boys dont care that they are in our plant visiting. It diffused but was pretty funny.

2nd amendment talk? I have an idea. An executive order declaring selling you hard drugs is the same as attacking you and threatening your life. Imagine the sons fathers and brothers effected with family members addiction and how that enables them to take care of buisness. Just go to their dealer, buy, get it on tape, have less drug dealers. Alot of people less willing to sell then. Wed have to work out a few details.
