Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Now, is this a violation of Rule #2 or Rule #3?

I'm sorry too for having strayed from the rules and then got my britches tied up in a knot when this was brought to my attention. :oops:

Hey no worries, we stray off into it a bit from time to time especially when it pertains directly to gun ownership. We just try not to get to deep because it's just to sensitive a subject and starts arguements with some people.

Heh thanks Weldon :)


Guess I don't have to go on about it, past the initial explanations...and may serve a useful purpose of acting as a warning of some kind.

US politics are where the problem lies. Calling the current pres. a rat or one of the former ones a scumbag tends to rile some folks up. We "Yanks" tend to be highly partisan.
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

:lol: it's mostly US politics we don't want to hear about, Australian politics fascinate us as we would otherwise never hear about it and we have no dog in that fight :lol: At least until anti gun ideas hit these shores, and it's good to know what's coming :shock:

OK so its probably like a 'red flag service' I can help provide. If you have no problems with that, great!


Its a bit difficult for me to avoid the subject in any case, so just as well heh. When you have to wade through so much bureaucracy all the time it becomes a significant topic of conversation. You should see the aussie boards :lol:
