What if it's a Diet Pepsi Big gulp?

Dam near everything is illegal in New York even a Big Gulp


The Big Gulp law was 'shot down'.

When you are poor and act like Michael Bloomberg you are considered Crazy.

When you are rich and powerful you are considered eccentric.

Why do any of you think that you need to make a nail gun look like a firearm? Haven't any of you done construction? Take my nail gun, a few pieces of duct tape and, in about 45 seconds, machine gun. Same thing can be done, albeit in more time, by using a wrench to remove two little pieces.

Once, in a typical "macho" fit of insanity, one of my neighbors (building contractor) and I set up a 5/8 hunk of plywood at about 40' and ripped it in two with one "clip" of 2 1/4" nails. Now, I admit that was a "professional" nail gun with 100' of house on a great big compressor, but the same theory applies to the small "home handyman" models.

We have lost control of our government and so have those who run it.

Morning, Big Bear, how are you? BTW, I agree that "We The People" have lost control of our USGov. I'm just not sure that "anybody" is running it! :thumbup:

It's a nice sunny day here in CT and getting ready to either go fishing or take pictures.
If I could figure out how to catch fish with my camera …
How are things where you are ??

I know nobody is running it. It's a runaway cruise missile looking for a target.

Since I'm 100% disabled outta 'Nam and don't have half my insides, I envy you . . . either the rod and reel or the sixpak, not sure which. Things in the Rockies are good, but we don't really have "spring" or "fall" any more; cold, snow, rain, hot takes about two weeks instead of two months when I was a kid.

Enjoy your day, my friend.

We don't have a gun problem. We have a stupid people problem.

Your title reminds me of a very funny episode of "All in the Family." Archie went on TV with an idea for preventing airline hijackings. Issue guns to the passengers as they board the plane and take them back when the exit.

CT outlawed anything that looks dangerous whether it does anything or not.
Also made any weapon holding more than 10 rounds illegal.

As an owner of three AR 15s, it is plain to see that this will not work. It was built for the amusement of the owner.

To go to NY is a big gulp. If you sip first nothing can kill you.
