Is it me or does Obama sound like Bush when he told us about the coalition of the willing in Mar 2003?
I agree. I'm not changing anything I think, say, or do in my own country, under our own laws, just because the latest group of assholes out there don't like it. When we start doing that, they win.
This is what the back of my car looks like right now. Not only am I not taking any of the current stickers off, I'm considering adding another in reaction to this latest threat from ISIS. Probably this one.
Expect your winch cable to break next time you really need it, for referring to said mechanical conveyance as a car...
I don't know dude, I'd probably take the Yale shit off so not to piss some goat herder off.

Yeah, I've got a set of Glocks, an M4 and an 870 that will dictate the circumstances should some Islamic fuck see that tab and scroll or <2> as an indicator I some sort of target. (Weapon systems may vary depending on the vehicle that day).

A, cunt.
B, see below...

The other reason is I don't want to alert some asshole cop that I'm a vet and have him pull me over to search for weapons (yes I know I should move out of this state but here is where I'm at (for now at least)), and I don't have and cannot have* a CCW here.
*No such thing, either a house/range pistol license, or a pistol for work i.e. home and work. Outside of those locations, you may only carry to and from and also to a gunstore.
I would LOVE some snackbar to attack me when I am close to a weapon, dream come true, but I'm realistic and I've also found myself alone surrounded, without backup and facing death before, it's not fun, and the odds are hugely against you getting out. I don't want to encourage that again. I guess I'm maturing somewhat, I want to even the field as much as possible. At least go down fighting to a bullet rather than having my head sawn off on youtube (Hi Mom!).
ETA, I should also say that I do like to see vet stickers etc... on a car, when I'm on my Harley especially, I like to give a nod to people who have them.
Full disclosure, I do have a vet plate on my Harley. But fuck you, I'm on my Harley and ready to die anyway
In NYS (IIRC) for $10 you can get the address from the DMV for any plate number.

What did those tires set you back?
In Alaska they cost $1200 for a set of four 35's...lol We ran them for a few years on the Silverado, nice for on and the bit of off roading we did (we used the Blazer for most wheeling). We were thinking of getting them again when we replace the Jeep tires.
They were on the Jeep when I bought it. I dread the day I have to replace them...

My friend, Texas is my dream state. The only thing holding me back is finding a job there.
My 35's cost about 280 each. Not much cheaper than what you paid.

The House passed a budget continuance yesterday that includes aid to Syrian rebels. It's expected to pass the Senate and be signed by POTUS.
So, in a cross threads summary, it:
1. Will keep the government from shutting down and sending everyone into furlough again (provided it passes by September 30).
2. Gives aid to Syrian rebels (which the administration has pushed for it since at least last year to oust Assad).
3. Appears to be earmarked for fighting ISIS, but in reality Gen Dempsey says it will take up to a year to train these rebels.

Oregon has more sheep though.
God Bless Texas. We may all end up there. Get rid of the Leftist weenies in Austin and it'd make a great country.

Obama's "strategy" is apparently a hard pill to swallow for Dempsey et al
