A socialist may indeed be academically superior.
And yet, they are most certainly emotionally retarded.

One of the few Arfcommers I've had in my home.

He was a real "Larger Than Life" kinda guy. I will miss him a lot.

I don't interest myself in "why". I think more often in terms of "when", sometimes "where" ? Always "how much" ?

Talked with him this past sar show. I sold him a few strobes over the years that needed a battery or bulb.

Rip Ralph. I'll light a strobe at the next gun show in your memory...

Patriots are ordinary men who rise up to do extraordinary things in troubled times.

Pro-abortion is the radical idea that an innocent life is the only one worth taking.
