It's hunting season here. We have no problems getting ammo. Sounds like a silly rumor to me. NT

Holiday Season
Christmas time is so great in NY..In CA, with no snow, it is sure different. There is a ski area about 40 minutes from me, in the mountains that surround the desert..In order to get to the freeway and downtown LA, you have to drive through the mountains and ski area..All my CA friends ski. I have never..Heck, I have never even skated..Tried to skate a few years ago and kept falling, figured I better stop before I break a hip. One of my friends has offered to teach me skiing on the bunny slope where she takes her 4 year old daughter. I said no thanks..I would probably be a fool. Ah yes, I love this time of the year..Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hannukah, Christmas, New Year..So much to look forward to.
DUCK SEASON!!!
well, 43% are out buying ammo and
43% are going over their past emails and organization memberships and the other 14% are undecided which way to go and are sitting here handwringing.
Yeah we did too. There is going to be a tax on ammo and also SM
I read that ammo manufactures bought the stuff they need to make ammo from the gov. Now under Obama,Fedzilla did not renew that contract. Ammo will be priced even higher. This is clearly an attack on the second ammendment.
Personally, I think this campaign season
is just getting more and more exciting. Imagine if an old man gets the Presidency, and his sidekick with absolutely no foreign policy experience ends up as President....very exciting....cannot get any more uncertain than that scenario.
BTW, the 'nationwide shortage of ammo'
seems to be coming true. Checked the cabinet at Walmart the last couple of weeks. Empty as Mother Hubbard's cupboard. Glad I got mine last fall.
The conversation took place during the primary season
If they had a casual conversation on these issues before any official selections were even possible, they would have been purely speculative, dontcha think? During the heat of the primary compaign, HC would have been the last person he would have had in mind for either position. Sounds like a fairly innocent chat between friends to me.
Hunting
We would have an overpopulation of deer. Plus, it's not like they allow you to legally hunt all year long. Everything is well balanced. God did give us animals for food!
It is not so much the actual hunting that I
am truly opposed of, it is the tactics used. If you are going to hunt them, then truly hunt them. Don't sit in a plane in the dead of winter and shoot at a defenseless animal like that. Get out of your friggin' plane, get on the ground and hunt. I come from a very long line of hunters and none of them would ever consider that truly hunting.
I am vegan, so I yes I am against the slaughter of animals. But, I do realize that sometimes it is necessary in certain circumstances to thin out a herd so they don't suffer in extremely harsh conditions.
I also realize that people hunt so they have food, that there are still people who get their primary meat this way and cannot afford to buy it in a store. I have had many different kinds of animal flesh before I quit eating it, and I do not pass judgment to those who hunt for food. I do oppose using the term "hunt" for the mass slaughter of animals. If you are truly against cruelty, like you say you are, then you would realize that aerial hunting of these wolves is cruel. Did you watch that video and see how the wolf is suffering? That is cruelty defined.
I bet you oppose deer hunting too...huh.
I highly doubt that this would be allowed if there were few wolves. It is like deer. When people opposed hunting and the deer population grew so big that the deer couldn't find enough food and they starved. I think I'd much rather an animal be shot and killed and used for leather, fur, or meat than starve in a low painful death. These animals rights people amaze me sometimes. Just like stating we can't use windmills for energy because something about the pressure would explode bats' lungs. Okay...so lets just keep using oil from other countries and paying out the @ss for gas instead of allowing windmills because of those poor bats. Give me a break!
I'm not for killing just to kill, but if an animal is used for meat and fur....I have no problem with that.
Just like the killer market. When a poor quality horse was auctioned off, it could be bought by the killer market and used for meat and other things. The animal rights people did away with this and now the horse market is full of junk horses. The value of horses has plumeted.
I'm not one for cruelty but there is a difference between killing an animal and putting its meat, etc. to use than just torturing and slowly killing an animal and then letting the carcass go to waste.
Enjoying hunting as a sport
is not a crime the last time a checked. Sometimes I think animals have more rights than use human beings. Sheesh.
It is weird to post this on a board "im black and i have guns and ammo" wth?
That's just plain odd to post on an MT board. Looking for trouble.
Palin supports aerial hunting of wildlife
Even if I preferred McCain (which I don't) I would use my vote to keep this thug out of office.
Author of this link is an acid-mouthed witch hunting hate monger
has made a career out of spreading division and hate. She makes Michele Malkin look like a Marxist comrade. She is Anti Obama, Anti-Hillary, Anti-Democrat, anti-liberal, Anti-McCain (he's too "liberal", Pro-Palin and (gt this) Pro-Bush. She positively worhips the guy.
I reviewed the titles of her newspaper articles and WITHOUT EXCEPTION she publishes these types of articles. Some of her more notable titles:
1. Obama's Contempt for our Constitution.
2. In Palin-Gibson Throwdown--Gov Get A, Media F (I am SO SURE).
3. Where is Obama's TESTICULAR Fortitute? (little trash mouth).
4. Ding Dong, the With Is Dead...referring to Hillary's defeat in the primaries.
5. Barack Obama's Snake Oil.
6. Is Hillary Mentall Ill?
7. Hillary's Slapped-Around-By-Men Problem Bodes Ill for the Presidency.
8. The STELLAR Legacy of George W. bush.
9. The Rest of the World Loves President Bush (this woman needs some serious antipsychotic drugs).
10. Liberals Don't Support Our Troops. If she were in the same room with me, the only way I could control my urge to deck her would be to remove myself from her presence over this outrage.
11. Pathology of Liberalism.
12. Hillary: Typical Actions of an Abused Woman.
13. The 7 Deadly Sins of Liberals.
You see, this is why citing sources matters. Credibility....NOT. She is a fanatic hawking a hateful agenda. No surprise there that she would be onboard with this BC lunacy.
Maybe the rumor was right
When I saw the news I remembered my earlier post here regarding my friend's son (who is on active duty in Iraq) predicting the next war would be in Pakistan. Interesting coincidence causing my half-awake brain to fill with paranoid "was this staged by our own govt as a new excuse for a new war" conspiracy theories, LOL. I better get some caffeine and clear out the cobwebs.
That is a rumor, and did you ever think...
what effect it is going to have on that 16-year-old when she hears that kind of thing, finds out she has been made political fodder?
rumor has it
has malodorous feet... can anyone confirm this? 
I heard a rumor
From a friend with a son in Iraq, who supposedly told her that Pakistan is the next targeted place for war. Supposedly it would be considered a "new" war and as such would give Bush a loophole to stay in command of the armed forces as "commander in chief" for an extra year....I'd never heard of this so I don't know if my friend is nuts or what. Is there such a provision that if a president starts a new war in the last year of his term he gets to hang out an extra year to supervise it?
Unfortunately he did say it - not rumor - and not funny!
This is not rumor or heresay, this is fact. People who dislike Obama so much will not want to believe it, but as unfortunate as it is, it is true. And yes, it is true that Hillary called Bill many names equal to the "c" word (and right in front of Chelsea and others as they stood on the stairs in their mansion), and on multiple occasions used the "F" word toward the secret service. These were not unsubstantiated rumors you seem to think are funny (lol), these are hard facts, and nothing worth laughing at. It is also unfortunate that in this day and age too many people let the swear words fly out of their mouth as their everyday language, and worse is when they don't respect their peers or spouses enough not to use that kind of language towards them (especially in front of other people). As for McCain admitting to it? Give me a break...of course he's not going to admit that especially in light of the election coming up. Also don't you think it's a bit odd that if it wasn't true she (Mrs. McCain) sure is not denying it and if it were untrue both he and his wife would be coming out stating these were rumors they are not true, lies put out by my competitors, blah, blah, blah. But they are not denying it, they are doing everything they can to keep that out of the news and avoiding the issue. So leads one to assume they wish it never happened.
As for people speaking in anonymity....it has come out that people will not go on the record for fear of retaliation. It's similar to this board here. People will remain anonymous because they get attacked a lot.
You have no proof that this is a rumor!
Hoping something is not true doesn't make it so! Did you see the pictures? Her daughter looked much more pregnant that Palin did!
Prove to me that it is a rumor!!!
.
Because the rumor factor has taken this to mean
nm
There is a rumor going through the press that........ sm
Rahm Emanuel turned him in. I'm not reporting this as fact because I haven't checked it out yet, but I have seen that mentioned.
Apparently yet another rumor
Update: The McCain campaign hasn't heard anything about the report of a bus being attacked. This makes the following report seem highly unlikely. Neither Raton police nor state police have received reports about such an incident.
The blog item below was posted by Mark Williams, former talk-radio host turned spokesman for Our Country Deserves Better PAC, a group committed to working against an Obama quest for the presidency. He has been on the group's Stop Obama tour, which arrived in Raton about a day after a McCain/Palin bus came through, he said. Williams said he heard the story from several residents of Raton, who said the bus had a shattered window when it arrived in town, and that it had been shattered by some kind of shot during its trip up from southern New Mexico, but he never saw the bus.
A Raton Police spokesperson, who said he's been on his phone all day long with reporters, said if the incident happened, it happened far south of Raton. Several calls to offices south, such as Chavez County Sheriff's Department and the Roswell Police, however, turned up nothing. Looks like this one is firmly in the debunked rumor pile for now, and not likely to move anytime soon.
A report from New Mexico:
We learned at this morning’s Stop Obama Rally here that the McCain/Palin Straight Talk Express came through town yesterday. It arrived with a window shattered by a .22 caliber weapon. It had also been hit by an unknown number of paint balls from a paint ball gun or guns. There were reportedly no injuries and neither candidate was on board.
Get ready for the media saturation! The wringing of hands, the concern about "incitement," the indictment of Obama and Biden for daring to criticize McCain and Palin in such a way that would drive their supporters to this.
This is a false rumor
Check out emails like this that you get on snopes.com. If you go to snopes website and type in AIG bailout congress pension you will get the real truth. So many emails I get are totally false I never forward anything until I check it out on snopes.
My point is, like Clinton's it is a rumor.
Why put so much stock in these rumors......because you want to believe the rumors.
I do not believe anyone is trying to start a rumor. Just something we noticed.
and hopefully it is nothing serious. but it was noticeable.
Hey, the rumor mill is back!! (sm)
Here's a question for ya. If Bush is tried for war crimes and is found guilty, does that mean that Obama has *palled around* with war criminals? He has been to Bush's house recently....LOL 
This is an unfortunate email rumor that is actually a hoax
nm
Heard the same blather from the Oreilly rumor factor
the NY Times, Rasmussen, Gallup, etc., all in response to his dive in the ratings, taking third place behind KO and RM on MSNBC and AC on CNN. "They MUST be rigged," he blustered in protest. You don't like polls? Fine. Check out the electoral map.

Care to post the right fringe rumor rag conspiracy theory link
I am not into solving prevarication puzzles. Further comment might be forthcoming if you spit out precisely what you are trying to say here.
LOL, how silly
I know, he he he he, LOL. My gosh, blame the liberals for everything in this world that does not go the right wingers way, OMG, LOL.
Oh, you silly. nm
That's just silly.
Where do you get such ideas? Afraid of him...hardly!
Now that's just silly. nm
That's just silly.
God's salvation is really not that hard to gain. He is not a cruel God, but one who expects those on earth to treat each other with kindness and compassion. Your equation is all wrong, but I will pray that you will see the light before it is too late. God would welcome you into heaven.
That is just silly!
Anyone who makes less than $50K--and who says that we do?--must be racist if they don't support Obama? Thank you for the laugh!
It isn't silly at all.

This is silly
Why would I post anything here only to be attacked. And you guys call us rabid? I have my reasons for what my vote will be that I have tried to explain, only to be called numerous names. I believe that we have saved many more innocent lives in Iraq than we have taken, but we are not going to agree and I have finished defending my stances. Liberals talk of how intolerant conservatives are, but have not even noticed their own intolerance.
Silly? I think not.
It started below with Kaydie saying NO ONE gave their reasons for voting for change, etc. etc. How about your REAL reasons for voting for McCain. Abortion is a legitimate issue for some and not for others. I meant how about giving some real reasons for voting for McCain? Do you think her will raise taxes? lower taxes, end the war? What? Don't ridicule those of us who would like to see WHY you are really voting for McCain. We've been ridiculed enough for voting for Obama. If wanting to know your personal reasons is silly then so be it. Who knows, if you posted enough REAL reasons you might change some of the undecided voters but constantly hammering Obama is not going to do it. Well....maybe it will for some but not for people capable of thinking for themselves.
Silly! That is because
if O can apologize for us and smooch enough butt to make everybody really LIKE us, we won't need national security. One world, world peace, whirled peas, whatever. We'll all sit together and sing kumbya with the world court to keep everything fair. Who could object to that?
How silly. Who cares what
she goes to the bathroom. Why don't you focus on something that matters?
Just trying to show how silly all of this is.
Why not think of ways to make the world better on your own instead of cooking up stuff. That's all I am saying.
Lol. That's silly but funny! nm

You silly woman
Where on earth do you get your so-called news? Moveon, Kos, or DemocraticUnderground?
If you care to ignore the teachings of Saul Alinsky, what do you think about his "church" associations?
Bill O'Reilly will be doing "The Obama Chronicles" on his show this week (or however long it runs), starting with Wm Ayers & Bernadine Dohrn.
If you're looking for documented accuracy, Rush Limbaugh is certified 98%-ish right. I hear it so often that the way it's said escapes me, but the libs know it, too. That's only one reason they hate him so much. Of course, the first is that he's got over 20 million listeners. Nobody can touch those numbers. Incidentally, I'm one of them.
Silly fact
McCain blinked over 3000 times during the debate. Somebody actually sat there and counted.
Ya know what, Silly Goose.........sm
You're not such a silly goose after all.
I agree that, as a public forum, we should be allowed to post what we want (within the realms of human decency) without meeting with ridicule and namecalling.
It may be that, come tonight or tomorrow or whenever the results of the SC decision are posted, I will be wiping egg off my face in order to eat a huge plate of crow (smothered with onion gravy, if you please), but I think the matter does need to be investigated and every person posting here has a right...yes, a constitutional right...to post his or her opinion.
Thank you for putting into a cohesive and coherent manner exactly what I had been trying to say earlier but seemed to have failed so miserably.....that this is still America and that we still have a right to our own opinions.
it's silly with a capital "S"
x
I know - how silly that we should know whether he is qualified.
x
You silly girl
I'm getting my claws sharpened. HA HA HA
I know your posting to try to get a "rile" out of people (is rile the right word?)
So all I'm going to do say is this.
Thank you for the advise. I turned off my TV yesterday (well actually I did watch some DVDs). So thank you for the advise.
Silly me, I forgot...
... Oklahoma City in 1995 too. The good news just kept on coming during Clinton's presidency.
