As much as I appreciate the work that John Lott does and the statistical analysis he provides, I really don't think he's a good spokesperson for the cause. Do I disagree? No, of course not. But Mr. Lott leaves himself very open to counter-arguments that I could see coming from a mile away and that are easily parried. That interview was painful for not only because of Soledad's ignorance but because of every time Lott gave an answer I face-palmed at his inability to provide a coherent perspective.

Any links to the video? I can't find it. Found it!

I've been trying through 11 pages of comments to try and find a way to express how I feel about this. Only this .gif seems to accurately represent those feelings:

I think Isaac Asimov said it best: “Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'”

It's certainly pretty. I'm looking to grab a little bit of everything and I'd love to add a bulpup to the wishlist. I'm a lefty and I'm glad the Tavor is friendly in that area. I'd buy one...eventually, lol.

I was going to post a response but it's really just not worth it. Civil discourse is clearly not in the cards.

From what I've read my experience is rare and Streamlight is a good brand. I've simply made a personal decision to go elsewhere for my lighting needs. You made good purchases.

I don't think he's a member of the tea-party (What exactly that now means I have no idea. Seems the title is becoming increasingly vague.), but he's certainly right-leaning. Is he trailblazing new territory on the extreme far-right? No, but he's certainly not moderate. On a scale of 0 to 10, with zero being totally moderate and 10 being as extreme as possible, I'd peg him at a 6 or 7 depending on the topic. You're free to disagree. Is he a Republican In Name Only? Certainly not, at least by the literal meaning of the term. Is he smart ("Tide goes in. Tide goes out." quotes excluded)? No doubt, but so is Dave Matthews. I should disclose that I have a personal distaste for Bill O'Reily. I don't like his interview tactics or his arrogant persona. I also disapprove of talking heads on the left for identical reasons for as well, specifically the likes of Piers Morgan and Dave Matthews. I watch Anderson Cooper mostly, with a little Martin Bashir on the side and a little Rachel Maddow on few occasions. David Greggory I like a lot but I don't get the chance to watch Meet the Press as much as I'd want to since I work Sundays. Now I'm getting off topic. 'Doh!

I cried a little on the inside when I heard that news. On the topic of Streamlight products, I've only ever had their less expensive pen lights and had bad experiences with both. One stopped working and the other is still in use but less than water-proof. Neither were subjected to anything close to hard use. I've steered clear of Streamlight since. I'm a Fenix and FourSevens guy. Once Christmas is over and done with, if Santa doesn't bring me a TK22, I'll pick one of those up.

Probably put on their Jimmy Cater memorabilia and then flamboyantly run out the back door with their gay partner to their Chevy Volt while smoking a giant doobie, all the while passing out food stamps and.birth control to illegal immigrants while heading to the nearest abortion clinic to praise satan. AMIRITE!?!?!

This is quite possible. I'm going to put it at a 45% probability.

If I was drinking something I would have spit it out. Really?

I'm going to jump on the wagon and suggest that perhaps you should put off owning a firearm until you're older or more mature. I'm not going to sit here and remark about how kids these days need more responsibility, since I'm only 21. That said, going 75 in a 25 isn't a mistake. As far as I'm aware, the highest posted speed limit in Jersey is 65. You exceeded that by 10mph. You don't accidentally go triple the speed limit. There was no mistake. Even if it were, I don't want a person with that extreme level of negligence in the firing lane next to me. It doesn't matter what age you are. Guns are, by design, dangerous devices. They require appreciation and respect for the physics involved. You need to demonstrate that you have that respect before you handle or own a firearm. If you care to elaborate on the specifics of the situation, I may alter my judgement.

I think there's something to he said about the public's perception. I'll go out on a limb and suggest that if someone is open carrying a handgun, people assume it's because they're allowed to. They most likely assume that it's because of the person's profession. I doubt people who don't care about guns know the laws regarding their manner of carry.

I was quite disappointed with the finale. Andrea wasn't killed off.

Ends 12/2/12 @ midnight (PST). Use code XMAS511 at checkout. Enjoy! Link. This offer is now over.

I'm fairly certain it's in the US. I wouldn't think the FDA has jurisdiction if it were not the case.

Really good article! Thanks for sharing!

Much of Tylenol's product line is under recall. Where I work, the stock is very limited. Next time I work I'll see if I can take a picture of the recall notification we received.

It seems that fear is always a better salesman than facts.

Anybody else not have there orders ship yet? Not sure if they're just under heavy load or if my item is backordered?

I went all green. If they had orange/green sights available for the PPQ I would have bought those, but for the price I'm sure not complaining!

Just bought some night sights for my PPQ! Thanks!
