"So people like you necessitate such laws... Thanks for that."
This comment shows your true colors. Statist to the bone.
The NRA hasn't been a 2nd amendment advocate for a while now.
Hence his comparing you to them.
Metaphor: learn what it is.
Exactly, because it isn't a farm, it's an animal shelter. That's great if it's your thing, but livestock is expensive to maintain.I bet the real story is that he can no longer afford that place, So now he needs to lay the blame on something else. Just like a F**KING COMMIE!!
That is not what was said. Reading comprehension... learn what it is...
Sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me...
The NRA hasn't been a 2nd amendment advocate for a while now. You need to brush up on your news for the last half-decade. They advocate for private jets, expensive 3 piece suits, and mansions in gated communities at this point. The rest of their effort is being spent on keeping the house of cards that is their finances from collapsing on itself and balancing their bankruptcy in there as well.
This is Epic... It should be a sticky for life...
That's exactly what was said. You, as part of your royal "WE", called yourself a 2A advocate, to which he denigrated the NRA as being "advocates".
You're as bad at this as you are as local Vermont statute processes. Perhaps you should sit this one out.
The NRA doesn't want to solve a problem any more than left wing special interest groups want to solve their problems. Why? Because then no one will need them. This is how special interest groups operate now. There is a claim of an existential threat and only they can solve it, if only they could have some money. So some dumb sheep send money and what happens? Nothing. Because it's about the grift, the houses, the cars, the junkets, the fancy meals and living large on someone else's money. I wouldn't be surprised if at this point the NRA was packed with Bloomberg gun grabbers. I couldn't even bring myself to vote this year. I tossed my ballot into the shredder and watched it turn into confetti. I could be voting to bring the organization forward or voting to complete it's demise. It's impossible to know and the NRA themselves are zero help.
It still is chock full. They vote Democrat consistently.YEah. Because before Trump, Vermont was a bastion of diversity of color.
It's like when Boston tries to talk about how progressive they were with blacks all the way back since before the Civil War. Not lynching them isn't the same as accepting them, morons. Funniest thing to happen to Boston - busing in the 70's. Turns out, Boston was full of racists. Like CHOCK-FULL!
Just a thought to consider.WE are 2nd amendment advocates and gun owners. But hey, if you think it's beneficial to throw people out of that group because they don't align 100% with your own personal beliefs, then hey, it's a free country. But - you're only proving me right... Keep alienating people who don't align 100% with your view and you'll find yourself in an awful small tent.... and getting run over by the will of everyone YOU force outside of it.. I stand by my prior statement that this is how WE lose the fight... But feel free to keep making my point stronger with your comments.
You call my views repulsive, yet I'm not the one here who has turned to name-calling and personal insults.... a tactic that only validates my position by the way since the opposition lacks intelligent rebuttals.
...and you're not doing me a courtesy... If you don't like what I have to say on a forum open to the public, feel free to add me to your ignore list.
You didn't vote for Jim Wallace? That's too bad...
That's concerning...Not guilty!
I didn't even think that voting for one person would even matter. What difference would it make, Wayne still rules the roost and the organization is his personal bank account. Maybe just maybe there is enough dirt in the bankruptcy that Wayne will get dragged out, kicking and screaming for his date with an orange jumpsuit. I can only hope.
It still is chock full. They vote Democrat consistently.
what you want to read to save face at this point
I hear you knocking....
My local club requires NRA membership as a condition of membership. I hope to bring out some change and have them accept a GOAL membership in lieu of... or a Comm2A sponsorship.
-Mr. "I don't accept biased information, meaning I can't even accept what my own lying eyes are telling me"
Absolutely laughable. Been wrong about every single facet of this conversation, and still- he keeps coming.
He should ask his friends why he'd fight people with firearms, presumably murder them, over noise complaints."friends have advised me to weaponize and fight back"
No they didn't.
You use these words, facts and truth. I do not think they mean what you think they mean...
But the FACTS and TRUTH of the matter …
I'm advocating the neighbor with the home range not be a dick and have some consideration for others in his community. That is because his ass-hat actions will eventually lead to more government action which will impact everyone when only he was the problem. It may not be today, but it will happen. But ass-hats gonna ass-hat.
…
False, any amount of noise you make on your own property should be deemed being an inconsiderate a-hole neighbor, as soon as a neighbor dislikes it. It doesn’t matter if the homes are a few hundred yards away or if you’re only making noise during daylight hours as allowed by law. insta-a-hole based on accusations. /sIf the guy doesn't like shooting or guns, he can move. End of story. This idea you get to stop people from exercising their rights is complete bullshit. Noise is not a viable complaint. If you don't like gun noise, buy 100+ acres somewhere or move to China.
You use these words, facts and truth. I do not think they mean what you think they mean.
What facts and truth do you have to declare the guy with the home range is a dick, ass-hat, and without consideration? Or do you only have accusations and one side of a story?
Or, were your facts that VT select boards can’t pass ordnances?
So the article contains facts we can draw conclusions from:
1. There's a noise complaint
2. A "survey" was conducted by a partisan with skin in the game that seemingly concludes only the farmers have a gripe.
3. This survey contradicted by letters received directly from the selectmen from residents, the majority of which say "Huston, we have a problem"
4. points 2 and 3 establish a clear lack of credibility on one side of the issue.
5. the farmers level some pretty serious accusations about harassment and vandalism
6. the farmers substantiate their claims with photographic evidence
7. the other side does not deny
8. facts 5 - 8 establish a clear picture of who the antagonist is
9. the farmers make the claim they have approached and tried conversation to work out an arrangement. The other side is not reasonable.
10. the other side does not deny this claim.
Considering all of the above-established facts and preponderance of the evidence, it becomes clear where the problem is... I don't care for anti-gunners anymore than anyone here. But I'm also not cool with seeing someone's property rights and their pursuit of happiness on their own property get crapped on just because I differ with them politically.
