I don't know with any level of certainty but I think I saw somewhere that it's going to start with 430. Ill see if I can dig something up when I get back from vacation

Tell that to the Italians...

No no no, think about it. If, and I mean this is a big IF, PMMC really does think of the anti-gun lobby as "baggage", but he's beholden to it, then the best thing that can happen for gun owners (other than a CPC majority), would be a LPC majority so big that he can start to ignore or even shed...

So if he resigned his seat...

Just look right here. -->| |<---. Did you see it? Enforcing criminal law on the high seas is the jurisdiction of the flag state (in this case, Panama), but there are exception. Things like counter piracy/slavery can be done by anyone on the high seas. Sanctions can be enforced on the high...

Your response got more disagreement from EagleLord then IKnowNothing, so... yes!

I think they were expecting you to be completely anti-gun and are now unsure of how to respond. :LOL:

But now it's both ways; not only can you more easily "engage", but you can more easily/readily receive/witness other people's (often loud) "engagement". And, people are emotional, uninformed, and stupid.

I don't think the Venezuelan military is stupid, or at least they're front line personnel aren't. If Venezuelan leadership ordered their navy or (extremely limited) Air Force to interdict, I'm willing to believe they would ignore the order or else fly somewhere neutral and seek asylum. I could...

Its a very ruff first draft, but I see a 57mm, a RIM-116 RAM, 2 quad NSM box launchers, and what looks like an SG-AMB radar. So, a anti-surface warfare platform that can do some very limited point defense AAW. I can't see any torpedo tubes. Curious if there is enough space for a CAPTAS.

It's doesn't roll of the togue like PC does. Ergo, the party is doomed to failure.

That is an awfully MASSIVE presumption. I don't know, nor have I ever met, a Canadian who was both "pro communism", or even just extreme socialism, that was also a gun owner, hunter, shooter, and believe guns (some guns) should absolutely be legal for civilians to own.

Who said they are selling any one out? Jarn implied that such a person with the opinion I stated would be an unpleasant person in general. I didn't say that this person was a vocal proponent of banning guns or who was actively supporting/helping to implement a ban on anything but the weapons I...

Really? Why? If you met someone who both hunted every year and loved going to the range to plink with his friends, but had the opinion "the only thing civilians should ever need is a 4-5 round bolt action rifle and break-action shotgun. No semi-autos, no levers, no pumps, and no pistols...

Yes, that's what he's saying. Sport shooting is a societal benefit, to wit, "fun".

Y'all will probably enjoy this. I had a really good chuckle:

The US lots its credibility to provide any kind of logical and informed decisions regarding gun laws when they banned Kinder Surprise because they are deemed "too dangerous".

Not an equal comparison. The vast majority of the gun ownership in Switzerland is for sport shooting. They have a HUGE culture of sport shooting. There are thousands of gun shooting clubs. Children at a young age attend camps on gun maintenance and safety. They take responsible gun ownership...

No. Like I said it's hypothetical. But I abhore "absolute" statements, and as much as I think arbitrary laws are frustrating, are they truly "unethical" if there is potentially a real benefit to society writ large, even if its effects are entirely "perceptual"? (i.e. if a new gun law never...
