OC and drinking in a Class B

[Herr Heckler Koch]

So, 4 pages and this has nothing to do with law. And everything to do with the evils of alcohol and how you want everyone else to act. Here's an idea. Mind your own [ ... ] business.

On this we agree.

Many yap about Robert Anson Heinlein and his polite armed society. He also embraced this idea as MYOB! (perhaps from the Moon is a Harsh Mistress.

You started the thread. You baited everyone. That's what a troll does by the way.



You are telling us how to live our lives.

But then again, if someone is willing to have one, who is to say that someday that might become two or more. It is better to never drink while armed than even flirt with that slippery slope.

Apparently you? Who died and left you boss again??? Must be nice to have your sh*t so squared away you can dictate life for the rest of us. Might want to think about a self help book or something.

Alcohol and firearms mix fairly well actually. I've shot some of my best trap after a couple 16oz cans.

Back in the day, I've shot some of my best pool after a few. I understand that could work with shooting trap aswell.

There's alot of people I would trust handling a firearm at the range or on private property after a few, But that is not the same as open carrying in a bar and drinking a beer.

There most likely wouldn't be a WAVE Ghoonie with a camera phone at the range or on some one elses private property.

Yes, I started THIS thread. But I baited everyone? Please! Like I put out some Doe-In-Heat or something.

You know what a troll might do? A troll might take a thread off topic, team up with a buddy, volley 20-40 off-topic post’s in a frickin’ row. That’s what a troll might do, my friend.

You are telling us how to live our lives.

Not at all.

Let me be clear.

I don’t care if you drive a Sherman tank or a Prius. I don’t care if you’re a vegetarian or a junk food addict. I don't care if your a couch potato or a fitness junkie. I don’t care what religion you practice or don’t practice. I don’t care if you like guys or gals, or even farm animals, I don’t care. But, some things I have convictions about. For example, if you raised a hand to a woman, I would be inclined to make you my b!tch.

Apparently you? Who died and left you boss again??? Must be nice to have your sh*t so squared away you can dictate life for the rest of us. Might want to think about a self help book or something.

Noone had to die, I assure you.

I don't smoke, smoke dope, chew rope, dance, prance, romance, fight, fart, throw darts, shoot a shiite or drive a truck. I've been to Janesville, Maine, Spain, Spokane, around the world three times, seen two world fairs, and seen a man shot into space. I'm a Shellback and a Bluenose and have seen goats screwin' in the market place, BUT NEVER NOTHIN' LIKE THIS!

The Al Gore interwebs is on. All can read what you post.

I also hope... But I don’t... I will not... I agree... I understand... I just cannot understand... but in my opinion... I feel... I am confident... I feel... I don’t... I just want...

 

[Captain Nemo]

Yeah! and "tequila makes her clothes fall off".

I would guess that if I had 32 ounces of beer and could shoot better all that would prove is that sober I was a terrible shot.

I also feel that if I have a privilege to drive and obey all traffic and equipment laws that alcohol should not be a restriction, just as the right to self defense should supposedly disregard the consumption of alcohol. In fact in my younger days there were times I had to drive, walking was too dangerous to my physical being.

Maybe I said this before. Correct me if I'm incorrect "Alcohol and gunpowder don't mix".

I'm disappointed in you Capitan. You being a sea faring man and all... Spreading lies.

It all began when people in the British Navy came up with the brilliant idea of mixing alcohol and gunpowder. When the sailors did this, they noticed that gunpowder in alcohol would ignite — but only when the alcohol was not too watered down. Always on guard against deficient rum, the sailors learned to mix in gunpowder, and try to set fire to the lot. The flame was considered the 'proof' of the alcohol content. Only a keg, cask, or bottle, with sufficient 'proof' was purchasable. From this imprecise and ancient method came our current system.

I like to openly drink, whilst carrying a beer...does that count???

 

[BROKENSPROKET]

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Actually, I think that would be a major OSHA violation.

Up here in everybody has a bunch a guns country, I have never seen anyone open carry in any hooch joint, ever. If someone did, they would be butt kicked out and laughed out of the county.

You are taught at a very young age that kind of gun carrying behavior is not tolerated.

Yawn. Where I come from if you stick your nose where it doesn't belong you get your ass kicked.

Time for a drink.

Up here the person doing the nose sticking would be the hooch joint owner, and you bet someone would be getting butt kicked inside or outside the door. They do not discriminate and if needed they get a lot of help from their regulars.

Don't forget to watch all those people drinking alcohol products and when they leave the bar/tavern/etc...to call the police with descriptions of their vehicles and which way they were headed! Remember...a non drinking society is a safe society! We all know that no one can be responsible if they drink alcohol!

Hey...I wonder what happened to msusnVET? He/she/it seems to have disappeared.....

The guy who thinks he speaks for everyone in his county...

I'm gonna have a drink. Even though the evils of alcohol might ensnare me forever. The Horror.

You visit all 17,000 class B joints and have a beverage at each one? Sounds like someone may have a drinking problem. Or a world record.

As Adolph would say..."Watch everyone...." and when the time is ripe...."Turn them in!"

Has anyone seen msusnVET lately? Huh....wonder what happened to it/him/her???

msusnVet had 90 posts, but 'find all posts' returns "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."

I'm reading Olivia Manning's Fortunes of War: The Balkan Trilogy about the development of WWII in southern Europe. Oh, poolside in Kihei, Maui, N20 46.414 W156 27.509 The parallels with contemporary social politics and political rhetoric are discomforting.
