Don't get me wrong, Hoboken and Washington St. was a great place to party while hanging with my TKE bros. Then again, anywhere seems fun when you're drunk.

I'll be sure to tell my wild and crazy party neighbors, Eli Manning and Jon Corzine you enjoyed our little town.

We will have to agree to disagree then. I'm of the mind that every time we allow the anti-gun crowd a victory, regardless of it's size, it emboldens them to increase their efforts.

The only way to stop them is to stop them cold and begin to reclaim the rights they've already compromised.

LOL, I am not sure if you realize how much you have embarrassed yourself in this thread. But it has been fun.

Judging from the number of conservative folks owning you on this thread, I doubt that as much as I doubt you ever making six figs.

It's only a small impact on those that don't own guns, or are against gun ownership in general.

Talk about it. I used to live in Carbon County and that place is being invaded by New Yorkers and New Jersians. THose 2 groups of people, like summers, are trying to escape the high cost of living brought on by Democrat policies. Is it any coincidence that the most expensive states to live in are all Democrat controlled?

In school I was taught that the Founders instituted the Electoral College and our Representative Democracy system solely because they recognized the dangers of fleeting emotions that can play during a certain period.
