Sure. That would be great. I'm fine with the traffic cameras. So where can I get a look through the cameras aimed at the government officials?

66 feet on each side? forget the SOL, that would fit in a large garage.

At the time of this post, according to the most current update at kitco.com, the spot price of gold has finally overtaken platinum, by about $10. I've been sort of watching for that ever since platinum broke $1000, but it's kind of weird to actually see it. http://kitconet.com/images/sp_en_6.gif

There are a lot of posts, because a lot of people are very concerned. If there were a Con Con, it would be an opportunity to reassert our libertiies, and it would have a risk of plunging us into a communist police state. If you're not worried about it, then you're quite probably an idiot.

I suspect it is strongly related to a cost/benefit ratio. In order for a country to be bound together in such a way that it is clearly recognizeable as a single sovereign entity, it almost has to have some kind of central governing authority, whether that be a council of elders, a hereditary...

Up, and Down.... Be careful what you buy on this assumption. If there is a major call on comex certs, then gold and silver will go through the cieling. Gold and silver certificates, however, will go through the floor when the defaults start happening.

Ok, current numbers are besides the point. If you look at the current numbers(which may be accurate or not, I haven't looked at them, as they are irrelevant), they may say that no one has enough troops to send here. Fine. For the moment. But think about this. There's over 6 billion people on...

I have to concur Indeed. It seems to me that this ruling would nullify both the National Firearms Act and the Gun Control Act. Although, of course, I am not nearly as knowledgeable in these areas as our esteemed legislature in washington. :rolleyes:

Has anyone else heard about this case? It went before the supreme court, and it seems fairly clear cut, but I've never heard of it before today. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Lopez

Arizona... Is there anyone who might be in Arizona around late February/March timeframe who would be willing to give me a quick reloading lesson? I plan on getting some books, but I learn much better from watching and doing than from reading.

If only... One of the things I like about being from Arizona is that, every now and then, we draw a line in the sand. Maybe it's really far back, and you'd have to climb a mountain or two to get there, but it's still a line. http://www.azleg.state.az.us/legtext/44leg/2r/bills/hcr2034p.htm

Awww...Big Brother's so nice! Well, this is a big relief. I don't need to get a gun now. The gubbermint's gonna take care of all those bad guys now. http://www.mlive.com/citpat/opinion/index.ssf/2008/11/why_does_obama_want_national_s.html

Actually... My guess is that it's there so that, in the event that he tries to slip in any gun legislation, nobody can point and say, "But look, the secretary of whatever has an ar-15!"

Heh. Go Army I'm in the army. Getting out soon, but everyone that I work with is reenlisting. Their reason? "The economy is getting bad. I need the gauruntee that I'll have work and a steady paycheck." I try to tell them that a steady paycheck is probably the last thing you want in an...

How sad. If you feel that you're defined by what you spend your money on...Well, whatever.
