Look at the tyranny of party -- at what is called party allegiance, party loyalty -- a snare invented by designing men for selfish purposes -- and which turns voters into chattles, slaves, rabbits, and all the while their masters, and they themselves are shouting rubbish about liberty, independence, freedom of opinion, freedom of speech, honestly unconscious of the fantastic contradiction...

What's a basement? -
My parents had a shooting range in our basement, it was about 75 feet long. Mom got rid of it after all the laundry/clothes started to smell like gunpowder and I think Dad zinged one of the sheets hanging on the clothesline.Comment

i was thinking of building one for testing reloads
using some concrete pipes then i realized how heavy they are and there is no way to fit them in my crawlspace
so i guess i'll have to use a spoon and some bedboards like the great escapeComment

I MISS MY OLD HOUSE!!! Granted, I only lived there for two months before the wife and I split up, but I had a 200 yard range off of my front porch. I shot every day. Mmmm... It was nice.

My dad set up a shooting range in the basement of the house I grew up in on Chestnut Street in Santa Ana. I'd get home from school and shoot a half box or so of .22s each day before I did my homework. Nobody ever complained--maybe nobody noticed...People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome.

I'd love to do that. I wonder about the legality of shooting in "incorporated territory" though.Comment

We had a fallout shelter from the 50's under our house I spent many many hours down there with an old Winchester pump action gallery gun and what seemed an endless supply of .22 shorts. Thanks DAD.Comment

"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms, disarm only those who are neither inclined, nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants. They serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
-- Thomas Jefferson, 1764
