  1. Interesting article on North Dakota:
    “North Dakota is considering a permitless, or “Constitutional” carry bill”

    Thar’s yer sign… that we’ve wrapped around the bend with so many useless laws that we have to pass yet a nuther one to enable our Constitutional rights!!

  2. @Radio, I knew a man who came home drunk and smelling like pussy.
    His girlfriend shot at him 5, emptied it, times with a .38, he was passed out on the couch.
    He got up and put her THRU the side of the house, I saw the broken 2x4s.
    He was out of the hospital in 3 days, collapsed lung, she was chained to her hospital bed for a week, then went to jail. Let him off because they recovered bullets from the couch.
    In fairness, he was 6’6″ and 300# of chiseled granite.
    I’m not a bad ass like Brad, have known a few.
