Best way to let the cancer spread, stop fighting it.NO! GTFO....
The cancer has long ago metastasized and the patient is on it's death bed. Sorry boys it's a wasted effort and in your hearts you know it. YMMVBest way to let the cancer spread, stop fighting it.
No, it was 54 minutes--Car 54..."No, the answer key is in my car. 15 minutes and I can prove it."
"...CAR-15..."
*everybody panic*
I wouldn't put it past Healey or some other future loon governor to try and put the entire member list of NES on an EPO list for disarmament for being 'gun nuts'.
idiot?? he did say magazine instead of clip, didn't he?.......A fellow a few seats away from me looked over and said, "There is no reason anyone should have any more than 6 round magazines."
I did not respond.
He said, "Well, do you agree or not?"
I said, "I don't talk to idiots."
By designThis is really getting out of hand. The world has gone mad...
No. New Hampshire might need a wall soon.
I'm not really sure I get the "New Hampshire" stuff.
Besides the fact that we all pretty much sink or swim as one, one of the basic tenets has always been fight the war while it's still on the other guys turf, so you don't have to fight it on yours.
I'm actually going to take a contrary view here...
I have a problem with the teacher's statement, not necessarily because he said 'GUN!', but because his response was probably intended to be a threat. The chosen weapon in that statement is immaterial, and the teacher is either a real jackass or mentally incompetent. I'm going with jackass. Why would he say next to my gun? What if he had said, "It's at home next to my barbwire covered baseball bat named 'Lucille'. Context people, context...
Imagine someone responded to your kid with such a statement that includes a similar thinly veiled threat. How would you respond? I don't take threats to my family lightly and would have gone directly to the school to have a serious discussion with the head principal. Oh wait, this involves 'GUNS', which trumps family and suspends logic.

This was high school. Lots of well-liked high school teachers joke with students all the time. They routinely get away with comments that, if they were reported in print, would look outrageous. But in context, they’re just jokes.
This struck me as one of those kind of comments.
I tell my students frequently, when they ask about sea-level rise, Yellowstone, North Korea, or a bunch of other off-topic bullshit, “that’s why I’m hoarding canned goods and ammo.” I say it all the time. It always gets a laugh and communicates to them that I don’t feel like addressing their question right now, but that I’ve thought about it.
It’s also the truth.
But if it was taken out of context? “According to former students, Mr Picton has a long history of referring to stockpiles of ammunition. Authorities are investigating. This is Dan Hausle, reporting live!”
And if his testicles weren't in his wife's purse he would have punched you. But obviously that didn't happen.
Things seem to come around again.....we are almost back to the point where some will say, "you look like a gun owner, burn them at the stake"At some point this garbage has to stop. People are literally being bullied because they excercise a right.
If I was looking to refer to the most secure spot in my house, my initial off the cuff response would be "In my gun safe."
Sort of like guys in Ma. that are convinced that all their hand wringing and teeth gnashing will make it all change. Dream on!Guys who’ve paid to move to NH need to think that the move made sense. So they tend to get militant.
I’m not blaming them, even if they get annoying.
The teacher told the students he had a gun in his car.
You heard this from another teacher who heard it from someone else yet you post it as a statement of fact, that he told the kids he had a gun in his car. Excellent!
If he had a gun in his car we’d know about it by now since there was a police investigation. If he didn’t have a gun in his car why would he open up a nasty can of worms for himself by lying about it? What could he have possibly gained by making up a story about having a gun in his car? If he is that stupid then he shouldn’t be teaching kids. You must think it inconceivable that someone embellished or that the story morphed as it passed from person to person as they often do. Nope, you with your “inside” information state that he told the kids he had a gun in his car.
