Hermit: If you read actual information instead of political cartoons you would find ample discussion over the last 2 decades about the increased risk for conflict and extremism as a result of climate change. Don't trust Obama, go read the actual sources.

Once Farook left the country, he should have never been let back in.
His story was he went to Pakistan to find a wife. He left California to look for a woman? And this is what he brings back? To California? And the Customs guys bought it?
It's like he said he went Pakistan to go get Mexican food - and brings back a sack of moldy tamales. To California. And Customs buys the story.
"Moldy tamales? That's plausible. Those are better than anything you can get in California. Welcome home, Seeyed."
The Customs people don't care. Why would they? Pay's the same whether they are on top of things or not. May as well just do nothing, and run out the clock to retirement.

Chaz, you do realize that people are not subject to customs and that American citizens can go wherever they want to find wives, right? I mean are you seriously advocating that the US government begin impounding the fiances of US citizens in warehouses based on whatever bias a random bureaucrat has? Aren't you the guy who is always yelling "are constitution!!!"

I'm confused. You purchased a firearm 'legally' (I'm assuming) and you think it's foolish for you to own one? Then you regret that there is no governmental bureaucracy wasting yet more money and time having paperwork that you own it?
Keep in mind our same government dumps plane loads of real weapons and explosives into war-torn areas of the globe to support 'rebels'. But them having the knowledge that you own a handgun helps who?
yes, legally. But what is 'legal' if there is no record of the purchase, privately or through the government?
No, I like owning it, more like, it is foolish that I can without any oversight at all (registration, insurance, etc).
No, it is really fine with me, saves hassle and money. But, I can see why civilized counties laugh and feel sorry for a country ruled by their hallowed '2nd amendment.'
Fair point.

So let us get this right. You go out and purchase a weapon in order to see how "shallow" the bureaucracy of the government is in order to attain one in your State all to prove a point.
But then after receiving it and taking it home, you realized that it just may be a good wise idea to practice your "hallowed" 2nd Amendment right that has been in place for well over 240 years because you chose to live in a "sketchy part of town" and could one day utilize the protection it may afford you.
Go figure Compton. Just go figure.

My weapon purchase has nothing to do with proving anything to anyone, certianly not on ST or the state gubnant.
and yes, I practice shooting it, that is kinda the point. What is your point?
I'm not like you ammosexuals, who define yourselves through the caliber of your guns, to offset the falling testosterone levels.
Climbing at a grade I want to do, and running a distance I like means a lot more to me than my gun collection of a single gun.

i laughed pretty hard when I was on a rest day in Bishop once and was headed to town and my friend asked me to pick up some bullets for him for rest day entertainment. I thought he was joking because well, I was a visitor from another country, I can't just go walk into a store and buy bullets!! I can't even do that in my own country!
But he said it was fine.
i thought he was messing with me, but when I got to town I gave it a shot anyways(no pun intended), the guy in the store grabbed the bullets and asked to see my license. The best was that he thought British Columbia was in the UK. No problems otherwise. I couldn't believe how easy it was. I almost went back in to see if I could buy a gun.
Then I went to Von's and bought a bunch of pumpkins that were on sale since it was Nov 1 and we proceeded to simulate the war on terror in the Sierra foothills all afternoon. Definitely one of the more "American" days I've had. It was a blast(no pun intended) but I couldn't help but think that it was super sketchy how pretty much anyone could buy bullets. I would not want that to be an option where I live.

Yup... pretty scary to realize that you live a society up in Canada where you are CONTROLLED by your Gov't and do not have the FREEDOMS afforded to you that we down here in the US, have.
Probably why all those "Muslims" from Islamic Sharia Law governed nations are doing all they can to come here. To the US that is.
Priceless.

When people equate the ability to impulse buy bullets with "freedom" but cannot easily afford healthcare, education or retirement I'm pretty sure "government control" isn't the problem. I mean that basically sounds like the plot for a oligarchical shadow government movie.

Yes the chief.
I have no freedom.
Even the gun nuts in Canada aren't frothing like you for less regulations.
If that is what you are frothing about?
It's really hard to tell with all the froth.
Edit- Jeremy, this has happened to me in Utah as well. Must be my accent.

Can we get an Amen for some self-deportation to Gunland?
I'm checking for the coordinates right now. Walt Disney was no help.

Yup... here they come. Doing everything in their power to get to horror fested Gunland.
Even the POTUS is doing his best in helping them.
What in God's name drives them all to want to come to such a fked up "Gunland" country such as the US?
Huh Brown, Ryan D etal. What?
Must be all the murdering by white fanatical gun owners and cops here. Makes them feel right at home from the land they fled from.
Oh, did I mention the already 10.5 MILLION Illegal Immigrants from south of the border over just the past decade that have fought tooth and nail not to only to get here. But so illogically, to REMAIN HERE!
Priceless Brown. Priceless.
