Larry, your whole argument is based on a completely false interpretation of what the FF intended. If you read historians (try Joseph Ellis or any other credible historian) you'll realize they did not even think about the individual ownership issue. They were solely concerned about the states...

And therein lies the problem with your assertions, Larry. They're based on a rigid and literal interpretation of the constitution using a dictionary. If the document was that rigid, it wouldn't have survived. It's "vagueness" is part of its strength and the reason it has not only survived but...

Larry, for some reference, I am a gun owner and support gun owners retaining the right to own and retain ownership of their firearms. I do not support those who want to ban all guns, I think the ban on assault weapons is pointless (about 1% or less of all firearms related deaths are related to...

Rod, you're assertions regarding animals for food are both unsubstantiated and highly highly unlikely to happen this century, same as your assertions regarding the 2A.

Larry, your interpretation is that any law whatsoever is an infringement. That is an extreme interpretation not shared by the executive, legislative or judicial branches of the government. Under your interpretation, felons, infants, and possibly even fetuses would be able to bear arms...

Larry, and yet there have been numerous laws written that modify to some extent the right to bear arms. The SCOTUS has ruled that at least some of these are legal, though not all. Hence, the right is not absolute. You are reading the constitution very concretely, which it was never written as...

Jon, historically, individual arms were felt to be necessary largely for the purposes of raising a militia (which are state based, not federal). The founding fathers had concerns about standing armies and the potential coercive force they represented. In fact, this was a tremendous problem...

Larry, the constitution was drafted and intended to be somewhat vague in many seemingly critical areas. Some viewed this as a weakness. Madison initially felt defeated as he wanted more robust language. In time, he (and most others) came to agree that the lack of clearly defined language was...

Correct! Madison, who was a principle figure in the framing of the constitution, crafted the bill of rights. Many states wanted to refrain from ratifying the constitution until something akin to the bill of rights was included or make their ratification contingent upon the inclusion of a bill...

FMETOO was already taken.

Ron, I have a pair of the Ford mounts Rick is referring to. I went with the Chevy Prothane mounts. The pair I have are the Energy Suspension brand. Here's the link: Motor Mounts Make an offer if you're interested. Steve

Welcome Chris! RBT is tried and true. Quaife was in the market then out, now back in. I can't compare the durability of one vs the other, but I can say that RBT's responsiveness and wait times is challenging.

It seems French Customs must have had a slow day.... https://www.hemmings.com/blog/2018/04/09/french-customs-threatens-to-crush-mans-holden-ute-over-factory-standard-secret-compartment/?refer=news

Jeff, you are intolerant of racism and sexism etc. That's all fine, but you're also intolerant of any opinions different than yours, regardless of what they are. That is the very definition of bigotry. Yes, the far right winger "libtard" "commie" descriptions are bigoted. So how is your...

Oh, and life expectancy is down, diabetes and obesity is on the rise, etc etc. Your assumption that the world is "more dangerous" amongst older white American males is false. It does play to your assertion that all people not left-leaning must be racist misogynist pigs. Your whole last...

Jeff, never promised a first class ticket. It was just a ticket that's all. You change the rules so you don't have to show. But I get it, you're scared. Quite frankly you're not worth it to me to spend $1000 on. I will, however, spend $350 to deposit you in Murderapolis for a day. Might...

Nick, I appreciate your insight and your analogy to Christ's suffering is timely, given the Easter season. If someone can't get over the religious bit, well, he's a stupid wanker. That new V8 vantage looks wicked! I'd take it over an F-type. A friend has a 2008 or 2009 vantage. Beautiful...

Thank God you rescued this site from certain doom and destruction from the "cesspool echo chamber with only...far right...views represented." Where would this site be without you. Such a righteous individual, looking out for those defenseless souls that might wander onto the GT40s site and...

Re: GT40s.com Paddock Politics Thread So you call people names until they comply with your baited question and reply in the desired way? Nice. Not so sure millenials are all what you think they are. Trap shooting is the fastest growing sport in MN. Teen Wayzata trap shooters compete...

Ahhh, thought you were referring to the Ultima GTR, or Evolution as it is now referred to. I know this is off topic, but I was considering the SLC as well for awhile. My fabrication skills are a bit limited so I passed. I know two people within 10 miles of me that haven't finished theirs. It...
