Look out I can buy ammo legally

[1Cane]

Wow I didn't know that this was even a thing. What does the law say about reloading supplies over there in Commieville? Was possessing ammo also against the law if you couldn't buy it at the time? I assume it was. That's not freedom in my eyes. SMH

We keep our brass and a buddy of mine reloads our rounds for us. I seen a long time ago that ammo would be a backdoor to regulate and control.

 Reloading supplies same requirements. If you purchased ammo out of state and was caught $1000 fine not sure on jail time but one year max for misdemeanor here.

wealthy Canadians seek out when they need more complicated procedures done.

I'm going to call hogwash on this one. The number of Canadians going to the US for health care is too few to mention... for that matter all Canadian travel to the US is reportedly off over 33%.

From the Canadian Medical Association:

"While it’s not known exactly how many Canadians go to the U.S. for health care, according to a poll conducted by Ipsos in March 2024, 42% of Canadians would go to the U.S. and personally pay for routine health care if needed. That’s 10% more when compared to January 2023. Of those who responded, 38% said that they would travel to the U.S. for emergency care, a number that's up 9% from the previous year."

I am aware of this and read it prior to my post. But you forgot that this survey was conducted prior to the major change in Canadian attitudes toward the US in general. Also, if you get into more depth, you will see that this survey was conducted without providing those asked with explicit pricing details for various medical treatments.

We're only up to 50 states. We have room for more.

Yeah.  He might want to revisit his "latest attitudes toward Americans" comment.  Not that we give two chits.

I'm pretty sure you guys are aware that this song is like Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" If you listen to the lyrics it's not exactly an ode to America. 

[AKIron]

The song is sarcastic but so what? We're dragging everyone along whether they like it or not.

Didn't even watch the video.

I enjoy the Amerika video by Ramstein. Underlying the protest is resignation.

I shoot about 3 times per month and often more. If you count archery even more. Just fun for me.

Yesterday, my son, his wife, and I went out for a couple of hours. I shot my Henry, 10/22, SR22, and my Remington 20 ga. pump. Had a blast (forgive the pun). Skeet shooting was the most fun. We were hand throwing the clays. So we had no idea where those rascals were going. I do feel it in my shoulder this morning though.

[Shuffler]

Maybe I'm a dreamer, but I wish health care was as easy to get as, say, a gun.

It is. You need to drop insurance so that it is more affordable. Insurance was expensive, after obamacare it is even far more expensive. We are dropping insurance this year in our company and going with a self insurance setup that will cut our cost and create an investment. Our employees will have much better coverage too.

A doctor says to a patient, "We've run every test we can think of and the results show you're out of money."

Its kinda funny that someone thinks a person who spends 10 years of their life and 100s of thousands in student loans basically living in a hospital to become a doctor learning some of the most complicated biology on the planet, should just give their services for free..
