There is no rage LMAO! <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Just giving an opposite point of view different to the prevailing opinion I guess. Last time I checked its still legal.

My intent is not to offend honestly just balancing out points of view.

We all need to chill a bit.

?You are assuming all nutcases are known and have a neon sign blinking ?about to crack? "

Funny, in all my years on this planet I?ve never seen a sign like that. But there are laws against criminals and the mentally ill acquiring weapons. One way or another they still get them, don?t they? What makes you think that the self loading weapons ban works any better?

?I am talking about semi autos and any other weapon that a dummy can convert to full auto.?

Well if any dummy can do it perhaps you can share your secret then? <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Sounds like a pretty handy thing to know. Of course there is a law against actually doing that too. Each violation is punishable by 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

?After you pick up your teeth if you ever said that to me after my kids were killed Id explain how your wrong again.?

Yeah. I?m really shaking. You evidently have a rich, full fantasy life.

?I suggest you look up workplace gun violence and school shootings and learn some.?

Sorry. I can?t look any up because there have been no school or workplace shootings in the last 10 years. That?s right, none! That?s because we?ve had the ?Assault Weapons Ban? in place protecting us! Yup. Schumer and Feinstein promised us 10 years ago that the ?Assault Weapons Ban? would stop all gun violence and it did just that. These shootings you hear about must be figments of some reporter?s imagination.

The funny thing is that when I asked the original question I wasn't really even considering defense as a factor. I was just trying to decide whether to carry my RSK, Juice KF4 or SOG Powerlock for EDC. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Defense is kind of a non-issue. I have it ingrained in me from bazillions of hours of training to respond with equal (or even less) force than is put upon me, so odds are that in a defense situation that I can not or will not run from, I'm not getting ruthless and bloody with a knife. I'm either going with hands/feet for restaint or non leathal weapons (if any). If lethal force is actually needed it's coming from my sidearm...not a knife. Like I said... The funny thing is that when I asked the original question I wasn't really even considering defense as a factor. I was just trying to decide whether to carry my Benchmade RSK, Leatherman Juice KF4 or SOG Powerlock for EDC in an effort to be well prepared for an unexpected urban/suburn survival situation. One where I might have to travel 20 miles on foot to get from work to home...etc. I'm sure Flippy will have some comment about how ridiculous this is but I can ignore that as I have done in the past. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> The multi-tools certainly have lots of uses but I can fashion a lot of what I need with a good *strong* blade like the one on the RSK and it is a lot lighter than any multi-tool worth its salt <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Kinda funny how the thread evolved though. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> heheheh.....

Oh and I still haven't been able to make up my mind on what to carry for EDC. I'm carrying the SOG and the RSK right now on most days and having to tighten my belt and extra notch to keep my pants up! With cell phone, wallet, SOG Powerlock, Benchmade RSK, keys and a bandana I have about 1 LB of junk in my pockets or on my belt! I'm trying hard to lighten the load! I'm pretty big on EDC preparedness. My PSK is basically in my wallet and pockets, on my belt, around my neck and on my wrist day in and day out and even as a bare minimum when I can carry NOTHING else (like swimming or tooling around the lake on a personal watercraft wearing nothing but shorts/swimsuit) I still have a a knife on 5' paracord a lanyard around my neck... and take my word for it... I can do a lot with a knife as long as I'm able-bodied. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Ho hum didley dum ..... still can't decide. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
