Truth....and every single charge is reduced to some minor misdemeanor, no matter what the original charge. Like VT, NY is a haven for criminals. Oh well, you get what you pay for.

This post isn't about paintball or eating contests. But trying to equate them with reenactments and think they are equivalent is probably one of the bigger stretches I have seen on these forums for quite a while.

Many people don't find them obscene. In fact, many see the historical value in them and want to carry that history down to future generations. If a few people shooting blanks from replicas of 100-200-year-old guns upsets you, then I suggest you probably don't go to these events. You may also want to stay away from Coney Island on the Fourth of July.

Just remember, to paraphrase...Those who try to erase history are doomed to repeat it...

Visit a battle field or look at pictures of the carnage. It may change your appetite for reenactment.

I've been to reenactments. Didn't change my appetite ONE BIT



Stop being butthurt - Life isn't about your Feelings.





Libs want to erase everything and change to suit their feelings. Look what's happening.

It was that (carnage) that led the way to our freedom and kept tyranny at bay. So having reenactments help to remind us of those who laid down their lives for all of us. And to help us to remember and honor those heroes who did so.

Only lefty loons consider carrying a rifle in open view, falls under "concealed carry"!

You can't make this stuff up!

I thought the left considered muskets the only acceptable firearm.

Sounds about right, Leftist installed DAs and Judges allow repeat violent Offenders to attack Innocent Civilians again and again, but Re-Enactors are bad

That's a good question. Based on some hard-left people who I used to work with, the answer seems to be: they talk about politics. I used to wonder, do these people ever do anything? Things like going to a ballgame, or a picnic, or a concert? If they did, I never heard about it. All they ever talked about was politics, politics, and more politics.
