    Yet we are not seemingly able to stop the slide.
    Trust me, I'm not opposed to Texas seceding the Union, and at some point it may be necessary for the survival of Texas and Texans.

    But as @easy rider said, I don't see throwing out the baby with the bath water.

    I also don't see shitting on the American flag either and what it represents.

    I am a Texan by birth, and an American by Texas statehood. The United States was created as a federal union for the benefit of it's several states, to mitigate the difficulties of defense and trade and the need for separate treaty negotiation between states.

    In my youth, I still imagined America as a benefit to it's members, though hindsight shows that was then already no longer true, if it ever really was.

    I still love the flag and the Constitution, as symbols for what the United States no longer really represents..., but I no longer see union as a benefit to Texas, and for me,

    Texas Independence can't come too soon!

    That doesn't mean I want the United States to fail, or as an enemy on our border...

    Did any of you keyboard commies even follow the links provided?
    It leads to a group that just wants a non-binding question placed on the primary ballot. Hardly anti American.
    Instead you guys pull a dim0crap move and attack his ham fisted presentation accusing him of what we do on these pages all day. Talking bad about government.
    Our Texas forefathers failed to allow Texans the ability for initiative and referendum. Thusly just asking is all we can do before sucking up to some elected dude.
    I've been reading a bunch of chickens pecking around screaming "the sky is falling."
    Most of us have thought secession was a good idea at some point. This is a chance maybe to see how Texans as a state feel on the subject. Maybe we should support such a move.

    My issues is t there. I never once said anything in my posts about the TNM. I called him out for his tone and contempt for the USA. If you want to call that “commie” then go ahead. But if anyone sounds like a leftist it’s him. Hell, he’s even using commies claims about this country to push his points.


    Sounds more like you didn’t read what we were saying and then made this rant pounding away at the keyboard like the sky is falling.

    At the very real risk of resurrecting a shit-storm (which is not my intention), might I please ask why it was that my page-13 (I think) post was deleted? I really would like to know if it was because I violated some rule or something, or if it was just because I said something unpopular.

    Once again, jack someone else’s thread. If you have an issue with how a thread is moderated, get in touch with a moderator. Stay on topic.

    Not trying to jack your thread. Again, I really am sorry for doing so, if in fact I did. I thought what I had to say was relevant to the topic.
    But I really would like to know why my post was pulled.

    Did you ask them if they go to the houses of communists too? Or just normal Americans?

    This is a good question to ask them too.

    It is just like when you ask a question to a city or county official about the bums, transients, criminals, drunks, dope fiends and so called, ahem, HOMELESS trespassers and squatters who seem to have more RIGHTS and FREEBIES than normal, sane, conservative or moderate HONEST hard working and retired Americans and LEGAL-HONEST immigrants in this day and age.

    God forbid that a person should offend or dare to question the free s army people who are VERY deliberate in their actions (Chosen lifestyle! Usually life long or close to it!) while they LEECH off society's sympathy and taxpayers hard earned money/wages.

    Already here. They're called "Red Flag" laws.

    This is true.

    Disclaimer: I AM TOTALLY AGAINST RED FLAG LAWS, I WAS ALWAYS OPEN ABOUT IT YEARS AGO AND I AM STILL AGAINST THEM NOW.

    I would say more but it would get VERY political (Rs and Ds who can't OPEN THEIR OWN EYES and who may still be brainwashed especially when it comes to the RKBA issue and more!) which is not allowed on this forum from what I gather.

    Y’all didn’t know that the acronym FBI actually means Federal Bureau of Intimidation?!?

    If they actually Investigated anything worthwhile, Obama, Killary Clinton, Biden, and 3/4’s of the DemoCraps in Congress would be serving life sentences for treason.

    This is true too. BIG time!

    Plus throw in a bunch of salami Rs who are NOT old fashioned conservatives and are NOTHING like what the party once stood for when it came to Smaller Government and they were REAL conservatives in FISCAL ISSUES on the local, state and federal levels.

    Just look at the Epstein fiasco. Epstein is dead, from a suicide, yeah, right!

    And they had totally dropped the ball on the investigation of Epstein several years prior to that.

    I'm sorry, but the FBI, just doesn't inspire trust with me anymore.

    And just remember, they sent 14 or 15 FBI agents to investigate a loop in a rope on an overhead garage door, in search of a hate crime because of the crybaby racer, Bubba Wallace!

    Epstein was murdered OR he is still alive and was moved out of the country - made to look dead. Another cover up.

    ZERO will be done because BOTH PARTIES and other national and international CRIMINALS were involved.

    ALL of OR most of the people in high places not only politicians were involved in those NASTY THINGS with very nasty people and they (THE WATCHERS and LE along with all of the spy agencies - USA, ISRAEL, UK, ETC.) knew what was going and ALL OF THEM were being blackmailed and paid off. Typo!

    Barr's FATHER who was a headmaster at that famous NY private school (ALL female or both sexes?) HIRED Epstein and Epstein had ZERO teaching and other credentials to DO a job there or for that OTHER famous man in financial matters but he was HIRED anyway.

    I followed a HUGE AMOUNT OF NEWS on him and the freak criminal woman (PIMP and more - Maxwell.) who had the famous Dad who changed his name, robbed his own company = newspaper - pensions, worked as a spy and tons more. HE was a DIRTY man and another crooked spy.
    People are just as dense when they want the real news about Epstein and tons more as they were and still are about the LV shootings and all of that too.

    I am not speaking about you but how much the public has an attention span of a fly and how they NEVER DEMAND ANSWERS.

    I had to look up the term concerning the OP's issues with the object that he was questioned about from the alphabet agencies.

    I heard about that term if my memory is correct on another forum. I did not understand what it was all about to be frank here.

    Apparently those filters or catchers were used for silencers or hearing protection devices but I never heard about them being for 'machine guns' (Huh?!) or any other THING for a firearm.

    Some man on another forum was talking about those things and another man was talking about the Official Form, Price or TAX to be paid and the LONG waiting list for such objects known as silencers.

    Apparently in some states, people are buying silencers and there is a LONG waiting list for them to be 'officially approved'.

    Plus the tax on top of that to be paid to .gov.

    They are popular in some parts of Europe from what I gather.

    We do not own any silencers but they are legal to buy in our state of Montana. Some gun stores sell them (Bob Wards, etc.) and there is the paperwork to fill out and more TAX money to shell out. I know this because I asked my MT born/raised husband about it and looked up the MT law too. I do not ever remember seeing them in any store but I was not specifically looking for them either.

    I think that they should be legal to buy in all states IF you choose to want one. Plus I think that people should not have to pay more TAXES just to buy them with more paperwork to fill out.

    I don't get or understand the filter/catcher thing. As I stated elsewhere, if my memory is correct, I thought that people were talking about traps/filters on kitchen sinks or oil filters and things like that for cars, trucks, tractors, boats, etc.

    I never used anything to catch gun cleaning fluids (Shooter's Choice, etc.) when I cleaned my guns. My late husband and my MT husband cleaned/clean their guns like I did and do. NO special filter or 'catcher'.

    Maybe I am too old or dense because I never heard of such things before or paid attention to such things online.

    I thought that Trump was going to push hearing protection laws, open/concealed national carry laws = ONE PERMIT OR NONE, etc. too.

    Some of the PNW firearm people really love their legal silencers and they talk about them on some forums. I can understand the hearing protection and that would be an advantage.

    However with that said, we are not buying any or paying extra taxes for them. We will continue to use good hearing protection muffs PLUS ear plugs too.
