That's a very good idea. I think that I can get a six-inch component package to handle that.
Thank you, sir.

Like those who are routinely depressed or suicidal. They go from being protection by the bed, to a 'promise to end the pain'.
Geez, there are a few relatives who I don't think should use pop-gun much less something that could hurt someone.
Arm those who are healthy and can shoot straight. And be very grateful that the rest of us aren't armed! ;)
Similar to the requirements that millions of modestly paid workers must repeatedly prove drug-free while Congressmen are apparently exempt from such mundane rules.
Are we to force everyone to publish a newspaper or otherwise make public their opinion on every issue? What happened to privacy and mind your own business? If someone doesn't want to have a gun(newspaper)(car)(eat meat)(vote)(----) as long as it doesn't involve their actual attack on another person then it is their right. They do not have a right to demand I conform to their way.
The warning sign is to protect the children.

Yeah, it should take at least an hour to try and estimate. {;o)
It's okay. I know most of the FR crowd uses a Windows OS.

Well, as long as it's for the children it must be good.
I understood over the years that each Swiss "soldier" had 200 rounds in his possession. Accounting for them was strict - as with any thing Swiss
I used to spend lots of time at the house of a neighbor with lots of children and even more guns and ammunition. All were easily accesible and all the kids knew better than to touch any of the guns without permission.Those were for huntin' squirrels,'coons, and not for play. It's the kids that were never exposed to guns that are most dangerous due to ignorance.
Hmmm, -- you find our naturalization oath repugnant.
I repeat, -- I think it should be mandatory for all citizens, prior to them first exercising their right to vote.
No oath, no vote.
Again,these people had a choice to come here or not;a person born here has no such choice.
They would have a choice. Swear the oath above, or no vote. They would retain all other rights of citizenship.
But a person born here is assumed to be loyal because of his birth,neither has a person born here a natural allegiance to any foriegn entity which would need to be foresworn. Additionally,the person swearing the oath to the U.S. and renouncing his earlier oath may be considered a traitor by his former nation. The Bible tells us not to swear oaths because we have not the power to so much as change the color of one hair on our own head. Refusal to swear your oaths does not automatically mean the person is intending to do you harm.
I notice you failed to address the impressment question,probably because to do so conflicts with your idea of forced service.
I gave no proposal for "forced service". Try reading my first posts here on the issue.
Is it that forced service for the causes you support is a good thing but forced service for causes you oppose is a bad thing?
Dream on that I've proposed "forced service". I fully support the principle of a volunteer military.
It seems the members of Congress and the federal gov't place little value on their own oaths of office based on a half century of viewing them weaken the Constitution, U.S. economy and defense.

Do you have some point to make in the last two comments?
190 in the box,8 in the magazine,2 in the home invader.All bullets accounted for ,sir.
As far as Wounded Knee goes it is my opinion that the whole damn US Army was spoiling for a fight. They had had enough after 50 years of Indian Wars.
Massacres over the years were mostly caused by turf wars or religious wars. My home, the State of Nevada has the slogan "Battle Born" I am proud of that. This country was built be white men with guns. Just a fact no opinion.
If there were no guns then it would have been done with spears and knives - plain and simple. Roman style, manifest destiny is a powerful thing.
A Firearm? My thoughts too.
Not giving up a dozen of my guns just so I can own A Firearm.
The foreign born do have a previous allegiance to renounce,the native born should have none to renounce.
Ultimately,I believe people who truly believe in a cause have no need to swear oaths except to calm the fears of those of weak or suspicious minds. It is far more important that the persons actions help the cause.
IF the oaths really meant anything to Congressmen and the rest then those who work so diligently to deny our Constitutional rights would find themselves censured and their bills voted down in short order. And more Congressional scandals would result in censures and declarations of vacancy.Congressmen may be under the influence of various drugs especially alcohol while passing laws that affect everyone yet they have no requirement to prove themselves "clean" as do ordinary citizens who can scarcely affect anything.
It is not the oath,but the character ,that is important. I am unconvinced the mere act of swearing oaths improves character.
Hey do I know you? You were in my house!
lol
Each is issued with an assault rifle and a box of ammunition.
That box is sealed, and it is against the law ro open it.
The box is to be returned unopened at the end of a year, and a fresh box issued. The returned box becomes "military-surplus" and available for purchase.
It's a military readiness thing.
