Yes, but aesthetically I never really took to that handgun. I like the looks of the Baretta 9mm, and the distinctive look of the S&W design on a .38/.357 revolver. Somehow they are more intricate in an artistic sense, yet still quite menacing. However, I am beginning to take a liking to the Glocks. Perhaps one in a .40 Caliber?

This ad just makes me angry. The Hallmark Card words in the image of the savage blow perpetrated against America..is disgusting.

Americans have been amazing in restraint. In the months since that day, most of the hate I have heard or read has been coming from Islam toward America...not the other way around.

Do they think justice is nothing but revenge?

Monkey...given the proper situation they (the bad guys) won't have time to fully appreciate the aesthetics.

Not only is self-pity about all they express, I believe only our success in OBLland keeps the worst of them from openly exulting about the attacks. "The whole decent world is watching."

Psalms 55:21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.

Ecumenicism, Pluralism, Ceasefire, Disarmament, Flatteries, Tolerance, Multiculturalism, Diversity, Compromise, Unity, Cooperation, "Peace and Security" are all tools of the devil used to defeat Israel, America and the West.  It is imperative that we return to God's rules and not play by the devil's.  More here:  #45

Scary and hateful. Inhuman and cold. Mocking. In your face.

When I think of WTC, I don't think much of the buildings, but the people. This script barely mentions them. In fact, representationally it focuses on the loss of the building. It doesn't sound like an American wrote it, but an Arab winging supposed American themes. First mentioned are our alleged loss of "innocence" and the "sense of security." This emphasis could be taken right out of an Osama speech, telling us we will never be in security, we're soft, we're innocent - and the emphasis on tall buildings (Freudian on the terrorists' parts). They seemed to have a particular obsession on the WTC. Definitely the mentality in this piece is disturbed, maybe evil.

Imagine all the other things that could be done, said and represented. Again, no flag waving, no emphasis on common Americanism, just victimology with a few stabs at community.

Twisted.

I would laugh at them, and tell them that if they think they've seen "hate" now, just wait until after a few more brutal terrorist attacks. That's when they'll see hate -- pure, unmitigated, unremitting hate -- hate that none of us will be able to stand against with any words of calm, peace, wisdom, etc.

We are a nation of almost three hundred million. The vast majority of us are in control of our emotions, and will not yield to our "hate" no matter what these animals throw at us.

That just leaves a few tens of millions who will no longer restrain themselves.

I do not count myself, or anyone I know among that number, but I am enough of a realist to accept that they exist, that their anger will be seething, and palpable, and beyond their ability to control if the islamists strike at America again as they did in September.

"for what it's worth, I've not seen a single mosque in any trouble"

Yeah, but you probably didn't see all those black churches burning in Arkansas either. /smirk

"Do they think justice is nothing but revenge?"

From what I've heard from their ranting "leaders", revenge is exactly what they think "justice" is.

Considering the awesome strength of the US military, that idea should give them some pause. That it evidently does not is a poor reflection on their collective intelligence.

"I didn't know Arabs were crack users."

Oh?

Then why do you think the camels always face them when kneeling down?

OK, that was in poor taste, but frankly, I don't care right now...
