ICE-Raver

I had to do a big job in Texas a few years ago and my company was based out of Harwich GB. They sent a bunch of engineers over for the job for about a month and the first thing they wanted to do was have me take them to a gun range on their free time. We spent at least one day a week letting those fools shoot guns at Big Johns Shooting Range. They couldn't get enough. Big John even brought out some special stuff for them to shoot. Like kids in a candy store.:D

Not being able to have guns is crazy to me. What may be crazy to you is that I can go down to the gun store and have an AR-15 by Monday, yet I don't own a single gun.:p

The tavor is sweet if your right handed and like bullpup rifles. I play milsim-airsoft regularly and they just came out with a TAR-21 airsoft version recently. It's pretty cool but pricey. http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=5289 The gun was also featured on future weapons.

The HOA caved to the pressure. The old Colonel won 1 last battle!:D RICHMOND, Va. — A 90-year-old Medal of Honor recipient can keep his 21-foot flagpole in his front yard after a homeowner's association dropped its request to remove it, a spokesman for Democratic Virginia Sen. Mark Warner said Tuesday. The Sussex Square homeowners' association likewise has agreed to drop threats to take legal action against retired Army Col. Van T. Barfoot, Warner spokesman Kevin Hall said. The association had threatened to take Barfoot to court if he failed to remove the pole from his suburban Richmond home by Friday. It had said the pole violated the neighborhood's aesthetic guidelines. Neither Barfoot's daughter, Margaret Nicholls, nor homeowners' president Glenn Wilson immediately returned telephone messages. Dropping the issue effectively ends a request that White House press secretary Robert Gibbs on Monday called "silly." Warner and Sen. Jim Webb, both Virginia Democrats, had rallied behind Barfoot, a World War II veteran. In a letter last week, Webb urged the association to "consider the exceptional nature of Col. Barfoot's service when considering his pride and determination in honoring our flag." Barfoot's fight also has lit up veterans bulletin boards and blog sites supporting him. Barfoot won the Medal of Honor for actions while his platoon was under German assault near Carano, Italy, in May 1944. He was credited with standing up to three German tanks with a bazooka and stopping their advance. He also won the Purple Heart and other decorations, and served in Korea and Vietnam before retiring from the service in 1974.

Ok, so you get your stupid opinions about the US from TV shows. I guess thats TYPICAL thinking for a Pole. Maybe I should base my opinion of Poland off of all the Dumb Pollack jokes I've heard over the years?

Somebody has. It's been all over the news here this morning that part of this conference is devoted to getting cash from the US to help developing countries clean up. If we had money that would be one thing, but we are over 10% unemployment.......in debt to our eyeballs and on the brink of another great depression.

You know, I've been reading your posts on these forums for sometime now and quite frankly I'm a little sick of your Anti-USA jabs you throw out on a regular basis. You think we are arrogant because we question these scientists that are spreading lies and propaganda? Well, you are ignorant for not questioning them. Some of these "Experts" got busted mere weeks ago when their emails were hacked. These hacked emails showed a blatant manipulation of data and supression of data that went against the crap they are trying to shove down everyones throats. Yet you want to sit here and try to criticize our education levels because we don't fall in line and follow these con-artists like good little lemmings should? gtfo. This Copenhagen conference is a farce. They are already trying to get the US to GIVE billions of dollars to developing countries to help them go green as a punishment for polluting over the years. I'll tell you what. If our government gives one red f'n penny to ANY country over this matter you will see a backlash in the US like you have never seen. You can count on that. ---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ---------- The "MAIN" issue is that they expect the US to dole out billions in cash to China, India and others to help them go green. Sorry, our economy has enough problems now and China has stolen all of our jobs. Tell them to pay for it there damn selves. ---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ---------- Maybe thats because half our citizens don't live like they are still living in the middle ages. How many Europeans have electricity and live in a house bigger than a shoebox? Hell my living room was almost as big as my buddies entire apartment in Italy. I've been to Italy, Germany, and Denmark and seen how many people live. Tiny houses, Tiny cars and most ride bikes and use public transport. How far do you commute for work? I travel minimum of 40 miles per day hauling equipment and supplies. Sorry that don't work on a bicycle. The US infrastructure isn't set up for that. The US is too large for public transport and bike lanes to be used anywhere but big cities mostly. That said, I don't drive huge cars. My wife has a VW jetta for what it's worth. But for me I have to have a truck for work.

The scientists with "degrees" are the ones making up false data, and trying to bury any data that goes against their propaganda. Leaked emails were a huge black eye for these guys.

You know.........alot of people make fun of the Amish and their simple lifestyle but they are alot happier people (overall) than alot of Americans I think from everything I've seen. That said, I don't think they let you become Amish very easily.

Let the oil run out. I'm ready to get all woolly and go back to the tribal ways. Modern life has some cool stuff and all, but I don't think man was made to live like we do...........worrying about bills, taxes, work, bullshit, yadda yadda yadda.

Spare us the politcal correctness please. We live in the United States. Not the homosexual states, or the abortion states or the communism states for that matter. Any citizen of this country should have the right to fly the flag of this country if they choose. Anyone that has a problem with that needs to get over it.

This game is a running joke on my squads forums.

I posted earlier that I was in agreement about climate change. Now I want to retract that stance. Since "email-gate" has surfaced I have changed my opinion about this farce for the most part. Furthermore if you are overly concerned about global warming, you need to get off the net. Do some research about how much energy you are using surfing the web, doing emails and stuff and realize you're a major part of the problem you are railing against. ---------- Post added at 12:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:24 PM ---------- LOL @ all the people trying to change the name from global warming to other things now.

Never ever buy a house that forces you to join a homeowners association unless you know damn good and well what you are getting into. It seems like every year there is a story like this where some stiff upper lip having neighbors get miffed over flags or Christmas lights or something of the sort. When I bought my home the first thing I asked was if I had to join a homeowners covenance before I bought it.

It has to be something specific to MW2 as others have stated. I don't own MW2 so I can't test to be sure, but I can disable my lan completely and of my entire library of steam games I can start all of them up without being connected to the web.

X2. And even if your internet goes down you can launch games in steam if you logged in before it went down. I just disabled my internet and checked to make 100% sure and I was able to launch several single player games with no connection. ---------- Post added at 10:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:08 AM ---------- LMFAO..........ok thats the dumbest thing I've read on these forums all day. I'm killing PC gaming because I prefer digital distribution over buying hardcopies and keeping up with discs. Whatever man. DD is the future, adapt.

What a bunch of bologna. Almost every game I own is on steam and I have yet to try to play one and not be able to because steam is down. If your gonna bash steam at least be honest about it. Maybe it's just you. I have never had an issue like this with steam. Neither have the guys in my squad and there are loads of us using it for that matter.

X2 I don't own a single game on disc anymore.

I think that score is being generous.

They have no souls.

No wonder IW laughed at the boycott. They knew all the FICKLE pc gamers would buy it anyway. We sure made alot of noise though.:(

Nice! I'd like a Magpul Masada myself but hey, whatever works right>?

I'm surprised at all the pc gamers back-tracking and buying this game after all the fuss. I've seen guys on the IW forums that swore to death they would boycott now posting over there saying they went out and bought it anyway. For me, I'm still boycotting. It's the principle of the thing.

Hehe. It cracks me up when the onion throws people off. You should read some of the you tube comments on different Onion videos. People get all worked up on some of them and go off on a tirade believing they are real.

Never, I just like to point out hypocrisy. ---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ---------- Modern Warfare 3 footage leaked! http://www.theonion.com/content/video/ultra_realistic_modern_warfare
