Heck yeah! I suck, but I play guitar (primarily to accompany my wife and my singing) and love to here others play. I just play rhythm. Nice playin’! More pickin’ is my request.

As an aside, I just watched “It might get loud” last night. Great DVD! Jack White REALLY impressed me.

:lol::lol:I’m sorry Johnny2, but I couldn’t resist making that fake quote. YES EVERYONE, it’s fake…Johnny2 didn’t really say any of that. It’s slow at work, I’m bored, my mind wanders…:twisted:

I’m not. I said:

and you replied:

Notice that I wrote, “it APPEARS”! I didn’t say, “you are saying….”. I wanted you to provide the list, because it APPEARED, TO ME, as though you were saying that, and I wanted you to clarify, since I figured you couldn’t possibly hold both points of view.

If I really thought you did hold both points of view, I wouldn’t bother debating this with you because you would truly have to be a moron (and you’re not!).

My post at 1:30pm was simply to prod you to still make your list. :lol::twisted::lol::twisted::lol::twisted::lol:

I’m just saying that the heaviest spined arrow may be over-spined arrow with even the heaviest tips. My set-up is a perfect example of that.

That’s simply not true. You’re just not making any sense to me. You are making an argument for what is bad about the NRA with two OPPOSING points of view. I wanted you to make the list so I know what in the world you want them to do, as opposed to repeating the things you don’t like about them over and over! It sure is easy to pick apart an organization. Quite another to have solutions. If voicing your opinion is going to paint you in a corner, well…

Just bring your wife…they have hospitals nearby!:wink:

You still want a list?:twisted:

Yep, and I agree that’s too much, BUT you were suggesting over 3 million…that’s all I’m saying.

Hey now, keep those horns under wraps!:lol: Sure would (like that list).

johnny2 wrote: I’m not tossing rights away, you guys can’t even separate the NRA from your 2nd amendment. You think anyone opposing the NRA is anti-gun. I’m not typing it again, so read my post on up the page about how I feel on the subject of gun ownership

We don’t think you’re anti-gun, we just think YOU have your priorites wrong. Case in point: Instead of getting the list together, you dealt with a MINOR family problem! (joking!)

Back to being serious…for a brief moment:
We don’t think you’re anti-gun, we just think YOU have YOUR priorites wrong. We put THE Constitution first, which just happens to include the 2nd Amendment, and for a VERY good reason. By FAR AND AWAY the most effective organization protecting the 2nd Amendment is the NRA. I’d like them to change many things. I REALLY despise the glitzy buildings, etc. By the way, LaPierre made less than a million. You shouldn’t just pull figures out of your gluteus maximus, as it doesn’t bode well for a debate.

Have you taken my advise (from WAY back in this thread) and read http://www.stephenhalbrook.com/founders.html? Because the truth is, if you’re not willing to read it, you’ll probably never understand where we are coming from.

ALSO, I’m not a Republican. I’m a Libertarian.

That is precisely my point, when your right to own a gun comes before everything else, when your right to own a gun is the very first thing you think of when it’s time to vote, something is outta whack! The NRA is the face of this mentality! It’s a pretty juvenile attitude actually, “I want my way regardless of the consequences” is something most of us grow out of.

I’m still waiting for that list Johnny2!!:D

In the meantime, it appears to me that you’ve been saying:
1.The NRA should stay involved ONLY in gun rights.
2.The NRA is too single-mindedly focused on gun rights.
