I feel so sorr... |

I'm done discussing guns on this forum. When someones mind is made up, facts won't change it. The whole issue with guns is a volatile one that never leads to a good and happy ending. I love my guns. I've owned and shot guns for decades. I break no laws with them, I use them to obtain food for the ta... |

I live in the UK and if someone is caught with a knife on them by the police, the knife is confiscated. I watched an episode of police interceptors where they stopped a car and found a knife hidden in the back. The confiscated the knife. So here, I guess knives are banned. Same thing could happen h... |

I took a highly detailed political quiz once. I landed Slightly Left and strongly on the anarchy/anti authoritarian side of of the political spectrum. I was about as far from the Democratic party as I was from the republican party. I have long considered myself a classical liberal...like a true libe... |

While we are not even close to being in great shape, we try hard. There are four of us...and all of us have HFA to different degrees. Living in Idaho and close to the mountains, we live close to the Earth. All my life, I have been a hunter and fisherman. I grew up learning to live off the land here ... |

Depends on the type of alcohol. Beer does very little for me. I would end up getting sick before I bet buzzed. Whiskey will do it if I drink it straight...no ice and at room temp. Wine is different. Wine hits me fast. I have drank on and off for over 30 years. I recently began drinking again after a... |

Hi DCGSage. My huge improvement on GABA continues, and it's been so dramatic that I now think of taking it as being analogous to a type 1 diabetic taking insulin. I would never stop taking it now. In a nutshell, GABA allows me to function as the best version of me. It vanquished crippling anxiety t... |

I live on GABA. I carry they with me to work. Up to several times per day, I pop one under my tongue and it helps me through the tough times. There is also a Valerian Stress formula that I take in first thing in the morning to help me start the day which for me can be the hardest time. One warning: ... |

We all live in different worlds. This is what is wrong with politics....those who live in "this" or "that" paradigm, thinks that which they see working should work everywhere. Here in Idaho, I hunt to put food on the table. I can't run fast enough to catch my food and even if I did, I never evolved ... |

/\ Indefinitely since a ban alone on anything can't account for an act not happening. I have a few of what are incorrectly referred to as "assault weapons". About all a ban on them would do is keep me from taking them to the shooting range and increasing their value on the black market. I guess law... |

Hmmmm...how do I put this? I own guns because I like guns. They are a hobby to me. I commit no violence with them, they have a better safety record than cars, and it is legal. I hunt for food with them and I enjoy target shooting with them too. Here's the deal, I will stay out of your personal inter... |

Thx to all for your advice. We went to the movies last night, then spent the evening talking. She is opening up a bit to us. Therapy is something we don't throw at her, rather strongly encourage it as a method of helping her down this past, especially at this time in her life. There has been some bi... |
