    Yeah, Larry, we were having so much trouble getting along . Thanks for coming along and making things so much more pleasant. Thanks also for straightening us out on so many concepts that we just aren't equipped to handle without your taurine excrement. We're all back on the straight and narrow now, you can relax now. That's a fact.

    We need somebody/something to keep the government (cops and bureaucrats too) HONEST (by non government oversight).

    Every "freedom" (latitude) given to government is a loophole in the rule of law. Every loophole in the rule of law is another hole in our freedom. When they even obey the law that is. Too often government seems to feel itself above the law.

    We forgot to take out the trash in 2012, but 2016 was a charm! YESSS!

    [The answer in your own words; "Despite Larry's "you can't do anything about twist" perspective" and "That's a good Larryism if I ever heard one!" You asked for the answer, you got it.] Larry Gibson

    So you're going to have a Manure Hemorrage every time your name is mentioned? I thought only Himself got to worry when his name was taken in vain. Oh, I FORGOT!

    I can't even be friendly with RunFive Run about a comment he seemed nervous about making without you exploding all over everything? I can't even quote you without you punishing me for it? Did you get up on the wrong side of the bed? Poor Baby!

    OK, you guys have been bickering long enough. Knock it off. Now.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!
