Just a thought

Now might be a good time to start collecting short pieces of steel tubing (say, 20″-30″), nuts, bolts and other scrap steel. Maybe toss in some scrap aluminum and brass too, maybe some copper….just to make things fun.

So when you bury that PVC tube, you can “salt” the surrounding area with enough false positives that it’ll make the job more difficult.

Just sayin’.

I wonder

You gotta ask yourself, what ELSE is the current administration planning to do to us while we are all up in arms about the gun control thing?

Seriously. While we are all paying attention to the gun control boogeyman, what other mischief is the rat bastard  weasel  President and his henchmen doing when we aren’t paying attention?

Enquiring minds and all that.

INteresting….

So I called the local plumbing supply store which I do business with for my business yesterday, looking for some specific parts .

While I had them on the phone, I enquired as to the price of 10″ schedule 40 PVC and some other items…end caps and cleanouts for a….. err… project I have coming up.

He knows me, and laughed out loud.

“We should raise the price on 8″ and 10″ PVC pipe and such… It’s going like hotcakes”.

He told me that their sales of those two pipe sizes have increased greatly, and it is the “Harry homeowner” type guy who is buying it, not the guys who would “normally” need it for drains and such.  

Interesting, innit?

Yep

Exactly like this.

’cause most people (non gun owners) have no idea as to how much regulation there is on guns. Especially NFA items.

And after all, more people are killed by automobiles than guns every year.

Thought for the year:

“LifeTip: If someone’s accomplishments make you feel small, there’s
two things you can do. You can get mad and angry about it and let it
make you feel really insecure OR you can use it as a challenge and
inspiration to do something yourself and step your own game up and start
telling a better story yourself. I recommend the second option (after
all, that’s why I started everything I’m doing).

Back story HERE

Part two HERE.

You really should read it. 

 

It occurs to me….

That if everyone who purchased an AR style rifle or a “high capacity magazine” for either a pistol or a rifle in the last year bothered to call their senators and congressmen, the gun control legislation would never, ever, come to the floor.

So call.

Be heard.

Now she knows what’s in it

Obamacare prevents any gun registration.

Amendment 3276, section 2716, part C. supposedly says that there cannot be any collection of “information relating to the lawful possession of a firearm or ammunition”.

So until the Senate and house change the law, registration is, for now, illegal.

This doesn’t, of course, prevent confiscation or limitations on magazine capacity, nor making guns with certain features illegal.

Have you taken the time?

If you are a regular reader here, you are likely a Second Amendment supporter.

You likely own more than 1 firearm, and you likely shoot more than once or twice a year.

So if you haven’t, it is time to get off your ass and make sure that your senator and representative knows where you stand. Yeah, I know you told him/her last year, and the year before that, but you need to tell them again. They may be new also. They have really really short memories. They live by polls, and if the pollsters (with an agenda) tell them that the majority of their constituents want more gun control, then that is how they are gonna vote. Tell ’em otherwise.

Take the time to tell them what YOU think. If enough of us bother then they get a real view of their constituents needs and wants and desires. They understand that people who bother to call or email or fax (don’t do a snail-mail, it’ll take too much time getting to them after being inspected for anthrax and all that) your views. If you write an email or send a fax, be firm, but polite. Be clear. Be single issue (it seems to be all that they can understand).If you call, be polite to the staffer who answers the phone. Clearly state your opposition to any further gun control laws. Be respectful.

Remind them that you vote and that you will actively work for or against the Senator’s/Representative’s reelection depending on how they vote.

You can find your congresscritters HERE.

If the continued exercise of your Second Amendment rights is important to you, then get off your butt and make sure the folks sent to DC to represent you know your views. 

If you don’t then they’ll guess. Likely incorrectly.

Don’t make ’em guess.

Tell ’em.
