I want to congratulate my good friend Lawrence and say that this honor was earned not given!
Okay, so I don't really know him but hoping for an invite to the BBQ at his mansion when he sells EO to Google. Can I bring a friend?? :D
Taking a current snapshot of Chicago right now is meaningless without looking at it's long history of violence.
Trying to correlate gun laws with levels of gun violence over the long term may give you results that are the opposite of what you are implying in your post.
Chicago homicides...
Let me get this straight.
You post an article that says this:
Then you ask this:
So it is your conclusion that the new stricter gun laws are responsible for the 23 percent drop in gun casualties? :confused:
As much as I disagree with the shooters decision in this case, I have come up with a valid defense.
My advice to the shooter, make the following statement:
I was merely following a directive from the Vice President of the United States who stated:
". . . If there is ever a problem, walk...
The AR is my choice for home defense as well. Repeat "Defense"!
We have a defensive plan in place which does not include a warning shot!
My rifle will not be fired until someone breaches the threshold and approaches my position after many verbal warnings. I will be positioned to fire with...
Yep. First time through I got punk'd by that sign. Had an afternoon drive through Brooklyn. I used every cuss word invented and even made up a few. Live and learn I guess. :(
Do any of you Peeps really believe that Obama "tumbling" would change things for the better??
If so, you are like a naive audience member at a puppet show that gets mad at the puppets and forgets that there is someone else controlling them.
There always will be.
The strategy for moving the...
As do you.
It is disappointing to hear a fellow veteran compare an honorable hand selected special duty position to slavery. Anyone who has served in any branch of the military knows that there are many "special assignment" positions where the soldier serves in a personal capacity to a...
Just a couple of updates:
The largest percentage of the blueprints were downloaded in Spain where gun control is very stringent. I guess a plastic one shot pop gun is better than nothing when your Government demands that you go unprotected.
A majority of the plans were believed to have...
Let's do the math and put the demands of these workers in perspective:
$15.00 x 40 hours x 52 weeks = $31,200.00 per year.
These slugs are demanding to be paid at the Assistant Manager rate without earning the position. Living in America sure makes some people feel entitled. :(
We have had months where we maxed out the miles and the legal hours and it was brutal.
I guess if we did that month after month it could be difficult to sustain.
We just take a short recovery break during those times and reset. Are they not allowed to take a break? Sounds odd to me. :confused:
Exactly, that is why I qualified my statement as the "dumbest FINANCIAL decision"
I then enlisted in the Air Force and have lived life as one adventure after another and have no regrets.
Uhmm, okay, make that "few regrets" :cool:
Wow!
That is a sad testimonial and I hope parents don't teach that attitude to their children. It is only "brain numbing" if you have no ambition to work your way up the ladder.
My first "employment" was with Domino's delivering pizza at age 16. I was a Store Manager during my senior year in...
