  1. I think a lot of people are against the idea because they learned that the whole "Kuwait RV" was a complete lie, if they did an RV, they'd have more money than is even in the world, and that's just if they went 1:1. I am not a hater, and I'm not a denier, but you gotta look at the facts.
  2. I see articles all the time. "Poll shows this." "Poll shows that." Where are these coming from and why am I not asked to vote in them?
  3. Trust me, dog. I understand the slippery slope mentality the government has. I'm not really calling for restrictions on guns. I'm just saying that it wouldn't be a bad idea to background check people who are buying them from you. Friends, family, and such really don't fall into that category because you pretty well know their intentions and stuff. I'm the last person to judge someone, but I'd have to really profile someone if I were selling a gun to them and they were a stranger. You brought up strangers and friends, and that would make things way too complicated for the government to handle. I am a Libertarian, and part of the philosophy is that the government isn't really necessary to keep everything running. It's called voluntaryism. I think maybe in this day and age, we should take it upon ourselves as individuals to really make sure we know who we're selling firearms to. Personally, I'm a self proclaimed gun hoarder so I'm probably never going to sell one, so it's really irrelevant to me.
  4. You mean mass shooting zones? Gun free zones are friggin scary. Here's a tip though. As long as it isn't a government building, you can still legally carry in there. It's just that if they see you doing so, they can ask you to leave, then if you don't, they can get you with trespassing.
  5. Can I get some statistics from Colorado to see if it's actually had an impact on firearms related deaths?
  6. I had a heated debate with a friend last night about the gun show loophole, or so they call it. In my opinion, the phrase gun show loophole is yet another invented term by the left to scare people into believing that we have less regulation than we really have, much like how they call fancy sporting rifles assault weapons. The fact that they call it the gun show loophole puts into your mind the idea that a gun show is a giant arms dealing festival where anyone of any ilk can go and buy any and every type of weapon with no background check and no rules. The real subject is private sales. Now, personally, I've never engaged in a private sale. I do realize that most sales that go on are completely legitimate, but I don't know for sure it's a quality firearm I'm buying, or if it's stolen, etc. Now, here's where most of you guys are going to freak out and spam that downvote button. Why can't we do a background check on the people with whom we're negotiating a private sale? I think that in this day and age, you should want to know you're not enabling someone to be armed as they break in on an elderly person and rob them at gun point. Now, of course, that person has the right to defend them self all the same, but should we really want people to engage in a firefight? I know that unless I am selling one to a close friend, you're passing a background check before I hand it over in good faith that you aren't going to go do something crazy. Is that going to stop everyone? No. Is that going to put an end to murder? No. Does that mean that criminals won't get guns? No. Does that mean people wouldn't sell to others without background checks? No. I just believe that when you have people like ISIS with sleeper cells all over the country, you can't be too careful. Like I said, the gun show loophole in and of itself is a farce, because of its wording. However, I see no problem with going down to the gun store with the person I wanna do the sale with, going through a check for a couple of minutes, and then being out the door. Sure, it's convenient to be able to just buy one, and that's a pretty sweet deal. Private citizens don't have business hours. I could buy one at 11:00 at night on my front porch if I wanted to, but it'd also be convenient for me to drive down the wrong side of the road during rush hour because there are less people on that side of the interstate. The point is that if I sold a guy a gun, then I read in the paper that the same guy had killed a cashier in a robbery gone wrong, I'd feel so horrible. I'd feel like it was in part my fault. I know that most people here are absolutely a million percent against any new regulation on firearms, and I get that. I was completely that way until last night when I did some critical thinking. Again, I want to make it VERY CLEAR that I am not for banning guns. I own an AR15. You guys have probably seen it because I'm a bit of a show off, admittedly. I have no less than standard 30 round magazines, and I own about 14 of them. I just simply don't see why it'd be the end of the second amendment if we had to pass background checks for private sales the same way we pass them for in store purchases. If anything, this would be a great thing for gun shows. If you're a vendor, not only are you selling your stock, but you can be processing paperwork for people, and charge them 30 or 40 bucks since they aren't buying from you. That's free money. I'm on board with that. However, I'm not on board with any kind of registry, which I'm sure the government already keeps illegally. BEFORE YOU CLICK THAT NEG BUTTON, READ BELOW A lot of you guys are already fuming with anger "Oh, Yukon's anti gun. Yukon's a liberal. Yukon's anti freedom," when you seriously couldn't be more far from the truth. I'm not anti gun, and in fact, I'm very pro gun. The three issues at the forefront of my attention, in order, are gun control, marriage equality, and the decriminalization of marijuana. I do not believe we should ban any type of firearm, period. The second amendment is not confusing in the slightest bit. Shall not be infringed is not a hard concept to understand. People don't make a big deal about background checks at gun shops, so why would it be a big deal in a private sale. Answer me that before you press that neg button.
  7. I hope Santa gives you enough coal to power New York City for 8 million years.
  8. Rumors have a chance of being true, based on some sort of facts. Luigi literally just pulls guru articles over here. We bash gurus, but we're the biggest archive of guru opinions in the Dinar world, and the same people who beat the anti guru drum are the ones saying Luigi's junk should stay.
  9. I think you should be tested to see if you're HIV positive, not completely shut out.
  10. Daily routine: 1. Go to Luigi post 2. Downvote 3. Go back 4. Repeat
  11. Luigi should just say the RV is never going to happen. If he did, it would instantly come to fruition.
  12. If you buy me out, I'll knock $100 off. 1.5 million for $1100.
  13. Bernie Sanders is a great guy. He'd give you the shirt right off someone else's back.
  14. Well, you said it, Luigi, so no. How about you say that Hillarious Clinton or Bernie Sanders is going to win the election so that will be rendered untrue and impossible too?
  15. PMs here, Skype (Yukon_Silvermoon) or email at yukonsilvermoon@gmail.com
  16. Don't worry guys. Everything is fine. I still have some left just in case the RV does happen.
  17. 2 million on hold for Andy. I still have 2 million left.
