sorry to stray a bit but now I need to ***** about reporters.

local media was trying to blame the road crew for not painting the wet concrete bright yellow so he could see it
I thought accidents like these were caused by the SUV itself. Headlines usualy say "SUV over turns killing driver, then gets up, dusts itself off and goes on 3 hour shooting rampage." Well I made the last part up but it fits.

Our media is just full of it. One of the best media stories I know of is about komu 8 in Columbia, MO. It's been a while since it happend but they were going to do a story about one of the local parks and the amount of litter. KOMU has the nickname "channel L8" due to not being able to make it on time for a story. Well they missed the cleanup but needed the story bad enough to skatter the picked up trash back on the ground to do the story and didn't bother to clean it back up before they left.

After moving further south I have had to change news sources for local news and such but I still don't have much faith in them. From two different local news suppliers I have heard "it could snow if it feels like it" and "dime sized hail stones or whatever their called, I don't know."

The day the Chechen rebels raided the school in Russia, my local news was telling me about a guy who got into the guiness book of world records for shooting milk out of his eye further than anyone else. While looking just to show the dates as a bit of proof I realized that not only did they skip a real story about children being taken as hostages by islamic fascists they brought me the story about the milk shooter 7 days late.

The news is no better then the random crap that they have on TV now, which is why we have stopped watching it altogether. People tell us that "we are going to miss important world events", guess that guy who carried a black bag full of socks into walmart today is a more important, and world event then the 4,000 people who died from a storm in Asia.

That is what happen when someone mis-handle "gun" shape objects.
Mis-handle is the cause. Orange tip has nothing to do with it.

Havent seen you around in forever! How's the old airsoft collection going? I finally managed to pick myself up some goodies. TM M4a1 HG, which I am getting a crane stock for soon, and a TM GSPEC with mainly lylax internals, and upgraded to 450, w/ a tightbore, and planning on getting a Tasco Titan 3-9x40 4A picket recticle scope soon...which will also fit well on the Tanaka gas Kar98 I hope to snag sometime...if I can find one for a decent price.

But yea...still collecting AK's?

/hijack

Yea...kid's fault. Personally, my airsoft gun doesnt leave the house, unless I am playing in my woods with my freinds, or going to the feild to play. Once in awhile I'll plink off my back porch, but that's only because I can get away with it, since I live on a back road, and the cops seldom travel back here. Everyone kind of shoots real guns off their back porch...

Seriously, the kid should have known better. Bringing an airsoft gun out into public like that...he was asking for it.

"if Police Dont Have Time To Think About It Before They Shoot Someone, Then They Dont Deserve A Badge" What? Thats Just It, You've Got A Split Second To React If Your Lucky. You've Got To Think About, Will I Lose My House, Will I Be Taking A Life Unjustly, And A Million Other Things That Go Through Your Head Before You Squeeze That Trigger. And Hopefully You Get The Drop On That Person Before He Gets The Drop On You. Hopefully Your Faster So You Can Go Home To Your Family Who Prays Everytime You Put That Uniform On. Sorry About The Soap Box. Just Trying To Put In Perspective. Some Times Folks Just Don't Understand. And Trust Me, We Are Educated In The Street. I'd Have A Problem If Someone With An Orange Tipped Gun Pointed It At Me.. If Fake Guns Were All We Had To Worry About It Would Be A Great Day.

So... what's with capitalizing every word? Or am I drunk? Weird.
