I read all of the ones I posted. Oddly enough, I did post that one on the list (it’s the third one down), which maybe you would have known if you had actually read my post.

I’m simply amazed at the copious bullshit being piled on Wes by reactionary right-wing nut job websites:

No worries, it’s a tough thing to explain on the internet without the benefit of demonstration so I needed to be a little clearer. A lot of comments here are focusing on whether pointing the gun back over his shoulder is appropriate and/or safe, which is a tough thing to explain as well. Intrinsically, the rule is…

I get the being super incredibly anal about gun safety because I understand the importance but at the same time I can tell the difference between a firearm that is made safe and is in a position where the barrel is nothing more than a hollow pipe and where there is even the slightest chance of it being able to fire.

That’s not what I asked, and you’re being purposefully obtuse about it. A broken open shotgun is less than a second away from fire-ready, the same as your AR would be fully assembled with the bolt open.

No, this rule applies to hunting as well. If you’re just walking around with no intention to shoot (walking to or from a blind, on a trail, etc.), then you should have your action open and your chamber clear. If you’re flushing game, then of course you should be locked and loaded, but that’s because you are actively…

I’m just going to copy this from another reply I made above:

Your broken-down AR and an O/U shotgun with it’s action open are two completely different things. Would you point your assembled AR straight back over your shoulder at a field with houses and people if there was no mag inserted?

When carrying a shotgun you should always keep the action open until you are ready to shoot. In addition to keeping the action open, you ALSO need to maintain muzzle control at all times. This means you must know where the gun barrel is pointing at all times, whether straight up, down, or in another direction…

If you came to any of the clay courses or skeet ranges that I visit and did this, you would get a stern talking-to by other shooters at least. If you didn’t take the criticism well and shape up, you would be kicked off premises and told not to return.

Posted the same video in another thread below! These ignorant a-holes think just because they’ve shot a gun before, it makes them experts. They’re just making the vast majority of responsible shooters look bad here, which is a goddamn shame.

I do see people with pump or semi-auto guns rest their muzzles on their shoes, but it doesn’t raise the same kind of blatant alarm in my mind as someone waving their muzzle around willy-nilly. At least I can look at some with a muzzle on their toe and think, “If they aren’t unloaded, they’ll only shoot themselves that…

Correct on all counts. I shoot clays a decent amount, and a too-large percentage of O/U owners carry over the shoulder with the barrels pointed back, not down. I always feel more comfortable seeing someone handle their gun properly, it shows they were taught proper etiquette at least. It’s a small thing to do it…

It seems like your main criticism is that you don’t like movies with Bill Murray as the leading role. At least that’s what at least 8 of your 5 points emphatically state, so I’m taking that on face value.

Nope, that’s what the cost of living increases are for. As inflation reduces the purchasing power of SSA recipients, their benefit amount increases.

This is a poorly researched and designed sales tool created and distributed by a private tax consulting company. There are many examples of the US budget breakdown in graphical format that are more accurate and informative:

Maybe there’s just a handful of Accords that are stolen many, many times each?

He and proud racist Luke Scott should be running mates! As an O’s fan, I’m so very proud of both as former players.

You may not have a paycheck in retirement, but you will still need to support yourself. Those funds will often need to come from sources that increase your taxable income, and will therefore bump you into higher tax brackets. Pensions, annuities, passive income from investment properties or partnerships, and even…
