    Cool. I'll stop by my friend's place in NM and stock up on ammo. We can weld a pintle mount to the deck and have some fun.

    FWIW I lived in Arizona for a while, don't think I wouldn't love the chance to play with big boy toys again.... didn't realise Florida also allowed private ownership of full auto firearms.

    Fortunately, that is not my problem, seeing as I'm not a US citizen. So perhaps you might like to take any 2nd Amendment arguments to some forum where somebody might care instead of polluting this nice, pointless, funny thread with your dreary political rants?

    Particularly, in light of your (El_Guero) absolute lack understanding, of the laws in the USA and distaste for most of them.

    My favorite part of our laws is our Bill of Rights. I don't care for the laws which infringe upon those rights.

    My favorite thing about our constitution and bill of rights, is the clearly intentionally vague and seemingly innocuous nature they're written. They knew they'd need to be altered, modified and added to. This foresight was astounding and quite open minded, particularly considering who they were. Social growth and an evolved interpretation was built in. There are some that think it's an absolute set of documents, but plainly they're not, nor have been, since inception and justly so. Our little experiment in democracy has needed to grow in just about every direction, so these documents have also needed the flexibility to adjust with social and political changes. This is the beauty of both of these land mark documents.

    I don't think they were meant to be altered or watered down in any way.

    Can I bring a bunch of crooked lawyers and home owner management crooks instead?

    :p

    NEVER BUY IN A HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION. The law is against you. As long as they can milk you of money (taxation) they will tolerate you. But, when they no longer tolerate, they will send their attack dogs after you.

    HOA experience is a nightmare. It is like legalized strong arm robbery. Never again. They are neighborhood Nazis.

    Well ....

    IF your family WAS there, I could have sat down with them and had a great conversation.

    Amazing how easily you can project your hatred of America upon others.

    Simply amazing.

    Hoytedow,

    After trying to pay my association dues, the management company, and their lawyers refused the payment .... then sued .... now want an extra $5,000 in lawyers fees.

    But, they say there was no 'intent' to do me harm .... $50 would have been harm ....

    I guess when you think the Founders (my ancestors) were not serious men, and women, then it is easy to think you can change the laws and attack those you chose to attack.

    I should have been a lawyer?

    Nah, I hate liars and crooks.

    Your most recent posts bare out my exact point, El_Guero. You've never seen me bash the USA in any regard, though you on the other hand, tend to misrepresent it, with any opportunity, often with clearly less then concise levels of understanding, of the subject(s) you suggest you know. You wouldn't sand a change with me (or likely any educated person) in any debate on the USA, it's history or it's underlying principles. Maybe I'm the only one here that's noticed this trend with your posts . . .

    You wrote that, not I.

    Take a chill pill.

    Get over it already.

    PAR,

    You know what, I do not get your anger. Doesn't seem to matter what I write.

    BUT, you wrote about shooting people with a machine gun, not I.

    So, I tell you what, I apologize for your being offended that I breathe.

    Now, I am placing you on ignore.

    Later.
