I Can't Believe They Let You Do That

Is it as "funny" as your special ED grade school grammar?
It's not a great video. Towns and cities in Texas have rules, regulations and building codes just like cities all across America. You can't shoot your gun where ever you want we're not even an open carry state or burn fires where ever you want. Just like any where else if you live outside the city limits the rules are more lax, just like in every other state. And if you're the wrong color or happen to catch a cop on a bad day you're up a creek if you have any legal problems. Texas is a good place with many good people (just like many places in America ) but it's not what the guy says.
I lived in Texas for several years. I know it's not exactly like he says, but outside of city limits, it's very lax - like he says. Outside of city limits in California, you can't do anything like that. That's his point.
Instead of trying to tow the liberal line on everything, BA, just accept some things as gone too far (like legislation in CA, for instance). Then, when you really do have an issue with something and disagree with it on this forum, your credibility will be a lot higher because we've seen you take both sides at one point.
Don't fall into the Ricter trap - where you defend every argument from the left side no matter how silly and stupid.
That's what Leftists do. They are blinded by their ideology... the SAME ideology that lead Europeans to brave the Atlantic and the perils of an unknown/new land in search of freedom!
Anyone who supports Leftist ideology is an ENEMY OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE UNITED STATES. Sad they have become the voting majority thanks to greed. Too bad we have to accommodate/kowtow to them... until the next bloody revolution, that is.
It's would be a stretch to suggest I would ever defend every argument from the left. What I said wasn't right or left. He was inaccurate in his description of Texas. I do not know anything about CA. and I didn't say anything about CA. but I do know about Texas and NM (a more liberal state) and a little about a few other states I've worked in and Texas isn't unique. So it's correct in the state of CA someone living in the country can't fire a gun on their own property?
I consider myself a moderate pragmatist with some liberal leanings and some conservative leanings. And like everybody else I have a biased view point. I'm only considered a liberal on this board by the far right because of the radical slant our country has taken in the last decade. Twenty five years ago I'd be considered a middle of the road conservative.
Dude, help me out. Make your paragraphs a bit easier to follow. I'd like to engage in some conversation with you.
If you understood the spirit of the video presented - which was that over legislation is essentially robbing us of our freedoms, then you wouldn't have gotten to hung up on the CA/TX analogy (which is quite accurate, by the way). Instead, eager to go after anything that is right leaning, you quickly pointed out how the video was inaccurate because, as you say, "you can't do that stuff in Texas" (when in fact, you can, but outside city limits, which you clarified).
I'm not far right, for your information, and I consider you significantly left leaning. I'm a Libertarian. You can't just blame it on all "far righties" that you have drifted left over the years.
If you truly are as moderate as you suggest, then the only reason you argue for the left all the time on these boards is that you are looking for an argument. That is indicative of being a troll. Is that the truth?
Why have you taken up calling everyone a "troll" ? That's fairly recent of you. The guys on the right do much worse than I do and I don't read about them being called trolls. Hell that's all scat does. The guy was wrong and I pointed it out and Texas isn't unique. And I don't know but I don't believe him that guns aren't allowed to be shot in CA. And you are correct you're not a far right conservative Tao, truth be know you and I would probably agree more on how to run the government than the wackos on the right on the board.
I didn't call you a troll. I simply said that a person who is here to argue everything or post just to get responses is a troll, and then I asked you if that was how you saw yourself (just here to pick fights).
You say you're moderate, but there's no real evidence of it. If you really want to be seen as moderate, then how about taking the other side of the argument every so often (when applicable) to show it? If you don't care, and all you are here to do is "work out" and argue, then...well, the troll word comes back to mind.

It extends to BB guns too. LOL.
