I've heard this many times from the anti-gun left. "You don't need a military-style weapon to defend your home." Really? Who made you the boss of me and my rights? So, whether it's you or Bob F., you don't get to tell me what's right or what's overkill for my own defense decisions.

You want to talk about the anti-gun left? Guys like the one in the video are part of the problem. He has all these gun owners thinking they should be doing over analysis of some suburban stalking terrorist group when this is the real problem:

https://ballotpedia.org/Oregon_Ban_on_Assault_Weapons_Initiative_(2020)

I'm sick of this mall ninja tactical training crap. The bogeyman is not in your backyard.

The bogeyman is indeed real and he writes bills.

I'm relieved to find out you're not in favor of gun control. But you're still slinging insults at other gun owners (mall ninja, boogeyman, etc.) because their ideas don't align with yours. Your problem is you don't know at where or what you should lash out so you lash out in every direction. Figure out who's like-minded and who is not and stick to lashing out at who is not. I doubt you'll take the advise but sometimes miracles happen.

Funny.. You were the one talking about taking the "SAW" and going out to see who was banging around in the back yard. I'd just call the police..  :chuckle:

Was sarcasm.

As for training.. Lack thereof is irresponsible and will get you killed. People with real life experiences realize the fundamentals that you call "ninja tactical training" are what keep you alive. Without the fundamentals your pistol and light are worthless.

I don't need a commando school to learn how to operate a pistol and light. 

The guy is running a commando school and advocating rifle training for home defense when AR-15s could be illegal in Oregon within a year. Total lack of awareness as to who the threat is.

We don't need any more tacti-dudes making youtube videos about the Miami shooting or advanced tactics when dealing with suburban terrorist squads.

But nevermind let's return to training for million to 1 scenarios when it is 1:1 that libs want to ban AR-15s in Washington and Oregon. The country has a real problem with identifying enemies within.

Why would you be against anyone preparing for the worst case scenario?  Especially when it comes to a life or death situation.

What is the negative impact to being prepared, or overly prepared?

You guys are killing me.

The best defense is a good offense.

Tell that to the unmarked UPS driver that delivered a package in his shady white van the other day. :chuckle:

Lol. We use UPS now exclusively. You're lucky you got your package at all.

That's one way of looking at it.

Or another way is that I'm better in touch with reality and actual threats to our lifestyle than the 10 thousand mall ninja experts on youtube arguing about which hollow bullets to use on suburban terrorists. These people serve as a distraction to real threats and I'll criticize them all I want.

Mr Commando there will probably have to switch his class to "shotgun tactics" if Oregon libs get their way next year. They are pushing for a flat out ban.

I got some guy driving up in an old lifted beat up Tacoma in plain clothes. I wasn’t expecting a present from him when he unrolled the window. Don’t remember if it was amazon or what.

Not sure he's a troll - possibly. But he certainly is striking out in every direction. I support 2A. I don't support your version of 2A. I should be the one writing the rules for 2A, etc. He just sounds confused to me.  :dunno:

I haven't watched the video.  If we are talking long guns for self defense, it is hard to argue a shotgun with buckshot.

That's my armchair QB response.

Might want to watch the video :tup:

Young and inexperienced possibly? I for one realize a lot of those "YouTube internet commandos" are current/former military/police with good information. Living it is far different than thinking you know. Time on earth teaches you that.
