Thanks for the replies. The Do Equix (sp?) guy is obviously full of hooey.
For the record, I don't consider myself progressive, my takes earlier were more from a materialist perspective. I'm not sure why Marx still continues to be lumped in with the 'nards in the center. I don't vote Democrat, for that matter, if there are not more than two two choices I don't vote at all. It's a silly waste of my time, and just keeps up some farce that I have any say in my government. I don't buy it.

I wonder how long will you last and if you do then what kind of radical will you become in the end ?
I'm only a hippie in a vague sense. I'm not wild about some of that stuff. Plus the pot is actually, really, only once in a while... and now that it's legal it's like it's mainstream already! GO 10 states! Go Canada!

Ah well, one can hope.

I don't have a problem with a lot of their platform, I'm just not sure I'm much of a fan of the liquidating and the vanguard this and that. The rest of that stuff makes sense... I think anyway.

I really consider myself more of an Anarchist... but, w/e? That's cool too.

Biddy, really? Do people still say that word where you come from? Huh. Ok. I'm not sure what the male equivalent of that is... "old... coot"? Or something?

I never really have understood why men who otherwise really aren't part of the problem (re not wealthy), always take such offense at women attempting to work together as a group. Sure there are pitfalls, and there are women who go off the rails with it, but that's not even a little different than Trump, Putin, or any of the other so-called "Alpha Males" floating around.
Anyway, w/e dewd.

Wow. You're like that? That feels... um... vaguely insulting and condescending or something. Huh. Cute.
Zamuel wrote:Ok, what's your favorite piece?
I mean, you know anyone can google anything right? Sure I'll tell you anyway though. I have a concealed carry handgun that is just a 'lil Smith and Wesson .380, but it has a fancy laser so I know I look good, and sexy, when I hold it! *tee hee*
The most enjoyable pistol I ever shot though, was a friend of mine's Kimber .1911. The thing shoots like a tank or something, and it was really heavy but with practice I got to be fairly accurate with it. I hate shotguns, though I learned not to bruise myself with them. I've shot .20, .12, and a .410. Not impressed with the small one, and the .12 gauge was waaaay to much boom.
I have also fired both an AR and an AK. I have come across several other wierd military style civilian rifles but nothing actually automatic.
So tell me stud, since I showed you mine, show me yours.
(No, not THAT, God...)

I spend $20 every now and again. If this Red Army guy comes up and asks, I'll just share.
*BTW- You can never do these two together, that would be dumb, and still illegal due to some wierd conflicts with state and federal law.

Thanks, but I'm not really worried, if I don't like it I'll just do my thing. I'm more curious about a few specific topics than anything else. Beyond that, we'll see. It is a nice enough looking place though... so, I dunno, whoever put up the drapes did well.
The widespread use of Permaculture and the elimination of lawn grass would offset global warming but then Capitalists couldn't sell you food excess.
