National Rifle Association. Very active in defending the 2nd Amendment. Although I have had discussions with people like Tanya Metaksa, they have slowly become more and more radical and unbending in their perspectives. Think Donald Trump squared. They are probably the most effective and powerful lobbying force in Washington. Very few politicians, neither Republican or Democrats want them against them, unless your in New England or California.

Aah. I wondered since they're the only NRA I know of. That's a good thing right? I mean defending the 2nd amendment. The anti-gun lobby (who are suspected of being backed/manipulated by organized crime) are hell bent on disarming America citizenry.

But I digress.

It was a factory produced caliber for the Ozzy market for use on 'roos. Mine has a long skinny barrel and is (was?) scary accurate. Sexy looking too. No fire-forming, simply sizing the neck down. I have some factory cases with correct head-stamp.

OOps. We're slipping a little off topic. Better get back on track unless there is a religious or spiritual connection. Actually, for me the experience oaf walking in the woods and hills with is indeed a spiritual experience. It refreshes my soul. Which is why I get so upset when some idiot goes and damages the sport with accidents and criminal use.

Here. I'll put it back on topic. Aromatherapy is a form of believe, isn't it?





In all seriousness, this place is about 15 minutes from my little house on the prairie back in Alberta. I know EXACTLY what you mean.

Wow! I envy you. Yeah, that's what I mean. Our hills and forests are different but the effects are the same. The gun is an excuse to go into places like that. That photo made me take a deep breath. Thanks.

The caption is very appropriate.

Aromatherapy - yup!

As far as left being bad and right good, during the last Canadian election a friend of mine had a STOP HARPER sign on his car and it was keyed. Three times the NDP signs were ripped off our lawn and in Calgary some liberal and NDP signs were removed from display. I am sure that right wing supporters could find examples of Conservative signs vandalized as well.

I would bet that examples of Democrats and Republicans being either the perpetrator or the victim would be easy to find as well but one might only remember the ones where their party was the victim.

Charging a much higher towin fees because the customer supports a different party is still being a jerk. Why do so many think that being a jerk or scumbag is not only legal but is a honourable action? If I ran a towing service the distance of the tow and perhaps the size of the vehicle would determine the fee, not the gender, political stance or the religion of the customer. No different service for a Trump supporter with the Christian fish than a Sanders supporter with a Darwin fish.
