Title: Hard to believe it's been 19 years !
Post by: DenStinett on September 11 2020 04:05:04 PM MDT
Almost like it was just this morning
The scenes of the two Planes hitting .... then the Towers collapsing in, on themselves
We all stood in complete shock, and awe
"This CAN'T be real ? ! ?
Worst hoaks since Orson Welles', "War of Worlds" Broadcast, we kept telling ourselves
NO .... it WAS real .... 2,996 US Souls lost !
THEN .... 11 years later; the Benghazi Consulate under attack, and we are force-fed the excuses as-to way, 4 more US Citizen HAD to die

Cherish what we have today .... make your Vote COUNT this November ! ! !

I plan to! I'll start by NOT voting for someone who never served, but insulted and ridiculed a true American war hero, even after he was dead.

Trump and John McCain. One was a war hero and statesman, and the other is a worthless gasbag who's only contribution to the military has been to insult it. Heads-up, McCain is the only one of the two who ever served...

Yeah.  I can't stomach Trump either.

I am lucky in that I live in a state that I know will be Red no matter what I do, so I can vote Constitution to try to get some credibility to the idea that we have a two party system only because of psychology, not law.

At the time of 9/11 I worked nights and remember my wife waking me.  Still unbelievable.

I mean Trump only signed a $738 billion defense bill for the fiscal year 2020. While the libertarian in me cringes at the amount of spending, Trump has certainly done more positive for the military than harm.

If Biden becomes president we can add a new topic call "Recently Banned"

Back to 9/11 - I worked on the top of the twin towers installing communication equipment in 1999. Visiting the memorial was a surreal experience.

this election is not a popularity contest. THINK!! do you favor capitalism or socialism? do you believe in the II A or gun confiscation? do you want a strong working  economy or more Gov't handouts? do you like freedom or political correctness? I could go on but won't. that's what's at stake. as much as I hate the two party system, that's what we are stuck with. I learned by voting for Perot that voting a third candidate only helps the worst candidate to win. (Bill Clinton in that case) Donald Trump may be a flaming asshole in person but he has done more good for the Country than ANY President that I have seen in my 70 years.

blaster - agreed

While my pipe dream of a 3rd party win would bring the country together, this is never going to happen in my lifetime.

Yes to capitalism over socialism, and liberty over oppression - Trump has done a very good job at removing harmful regulations (Executive Order 13771).

If every gun owner voted for Trump, it would be the biggest landslide victory in the history of this country.

A lady I was seeing called and woke my third shift ass up to tell me an airplane had hit the first tower.  I sat up in bed, switched on the TV and saw the second plane hit. "Yep! We're in the shit".  Seems like yesterday, but seems like a lifetime ago.

As for DJT, he's rude, crude and effective.  He is not the model politician but he is the cure we need.  Michael Moore summed him up best, a hand grenade the voters tossed into Washington.
I get why he disparaged McCain because he was a RINO and obstructionist.  I often don't approve of DJT's tactics and wouldn't want to sit around and drink beer with him.  I believe he loves himself, his family, our country and strippers.  I'm OK with that.

Totally agree with Blaster, DT is totally a loud mouth, loose cannon, and needs to stay off Twitter, however, he's not a wimp if push comes to shove, domestically or abroad, and has helped this country in many ways we have not seen in many years. Additionally, his strong 2A stance is huge...considering the possible upcoming alternative

I sent in my ballot already. Trumps name wasnt checked. I wrote in a dead guy. I figured if dead guys could vote, then a dead guy could be elected.

Somebody needs to read up a bit on McCain and listen to some of the people he served with.

Ummmm yeah, John McCain was a war mongering piece of shit. Agree with Mike. He is NOT the person the communist news network paints him as. I am all for my rights. I mean this page is about guns for gods sake. If Kunt-Allah Harris and Biden get elected, this page might as well be renamed 10mm-Firearms.com remembrance page as in "remember when we could go shoot guns and talk about reloading and whatnot"....

Trump is a douche. BUT he isn't a politician. He's a businessman which this country is a business. Money in and Money out. I'm 46 and since I've been alive, the Dem party has shit on Union's and Union workers. I'm a Union employee. Naturally I should be a Demoncrap and vote as such correct? Sorry but not sorry. Anymore your voting for the lesser of two evils and I'll vote for Trump EVERY day of the week and twice on Sunday's having the peace of mind my 2A right's aren't going to be flushed down the shitter if that blubbering retard Biden gets elected. The lines are so blurred between what Demoncrap's and Rupublicunt's traditionally stand for that not even Superman could decipher them with x-ray vision.

Just went and bought another AR pistol yesterday. Just in case ya know while I still can and without to much hassle. Of course with the ATF screwing with tactical braces now I wouldn't want to just be a 1 time felon but a two time felon since this Stag Arms has a SB Tactical brace as well. Go big or go home I say. Wife isn't happy of course but I told her if she didn't eat like she had two buttholes, we'd have A LOT more money for me to buy guns with. I'm making decent money on the side reloading 9mm for people right now since I had so much 9mm crap laying around and I've sold all my 9mm's cause it's just such a weak ass round. Now I'm texting this from a hotel room as I'm not welcome at home right now.... Me and my big mouth.
