I live in Oakland and I just noticed that my mayor joined the Bloomberg group. I've always found her to be quite reasonable and quite intelligent. My expectation is that she joined based on the the groups name and the  propaganda/lies that Bloomberg uses to sell his group. My question is this:

 

 does anyone know of a website that concisely lists the things that the MAIG have done that are questionable/despicable?

 

 I'd like to schedule meeting with her and I like to have all my ducks in a row.

You should be contacting them and letting them know what you think about that. 

absolutely, especially in small towns and who knows, you may even be able to have a sitdown.

 

my mayor is my neighbor and comes to the range with me

Give them a call, then follow up with an email and then a written letter.  If you can get any others in your town to do the same go for it.

 

We have a group of 6 of us from my town that share similar beliefs and when ever 1 of us sends somrthing in, either at the local or at the state level, we all send it in.

Linda(our Mayor) is very Liberal.A few even claimed she is a feminist. Writing her on the issue will be of little use.

However her election Victory was very close and mostly due to the fact that the Republicans continued to support a incumbent mayor who was ineffective and divisive unless he was doing something self serving.

The town is conservative and gun friendly politically So I would instead write to the board president about your dissatisfaction with the Mayor's stance on guns.

They will make as much hay with it as they can.

Judging by the membership list it looks like every mayor in NJ is a member. 

 

repugnant isn't even the word.   With everything that's come out about this group and their real agenda... there's no excuse here.  They agree with that message.  Those who realized what was going on have left the boat.

Just fired off a letter to her. I know it will get filed in the round bin.But what the hay

 

"

"I was just informed that you joined this anti second amendment group of leftists.
In dealing with you as a client and a voter I must say you never struck me as being way to the left in politics. Therefore I assume you really joined this group without really knowing to much about them. I urge you to become more informed about groups such as these before signing on to join them. They may be fashionable in certain democratic circles. But those circles do not reflect the beliefs and values of most of the people in this town. So I ask that you quit this group till you learn more about there radical agenda.
 
And while I have your ear say NO!!!! on anything for any reason on sewers down main street. If I want a urban downtown I will travel or move to an area that has one.
Lets keep Oakland's small town atmosphere. That's why we moved here and your grandkids will thank you for doing that one day.
Best wishes"

It looks to me that most of the mayors from NJ are from North Jersey and the more liberal areas in South Jersey such as Camden and Atlantic City, but, overall, there aren't that many mayors from South Jersey on that list as far as I can tell.

Thats funny! I'll Put my Congressman Scott Garrett against any other congressman in NJ to see who is more conservative.

And really the whole state is liberal BS as we know.

 

He's mine, too, up in Sussex County.  However, he more or less walks the party line... Definitely not a RINO, but definitely not a leader.

 

He's one of the few.  Most of Bergen County is liberal.

      The Tax Man Commeth

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      Softer Holster

      By maintenanceguy · Posted

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      By Mr.Stu · Posted

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
