simply unbelievable. screw holding the judge accountable, sue the whole nj justice system. so sorry to hear this.. its absolutely disgusting that this kind of sh-- happens

my apologies if anyone perceived me as out of line. being attacked like the people from newton is a completely different scenario than possibly instigating an altercation by making contact with an unknown individual who is committing a crime. i've said my piece and obviously its not understood by everyone so i'm going to end it here.

apparently people only read the first 4 or 5 words of every post i write. stupid if you were unarmed, which by your own admission, you were. so you're going to walk up to someone that's committing a crime unarmed and just stop him with your blood sweat and tears?? sorry but me? i'm going to tell him to knock it off and i'll have bullets to back me up if need be.

your right the founders of America had huge balls. but they also weren't stupid enough to fight the british in a nice straight line in the middle of a field where they could all be picked off quite easily. the minute men didn't play by the rules of war, they hid behind trees, staged ambushes and fought with their balls AND their brains.

i consider that a very poor decision if you weren't armed. stupid even. if your balls are bigger than your brain maybe thats another one of americas problems. i understand you wanted to help your neighbor which is fine... but again, what if you were killed? i don't think there is anything wrong with dying a hero, but if you died a hero because you were stupid thats your own fault.

you are right vigilante was not the correct word. i am not, however, saying that one should do nothing, just that actively following is probably not the best idea in the world. i'm sure you understand my hesitancy to say 'call the police' with how some people will respond to that on this board (and yes, i know zimmerman did call them). i'm also speaking as a husband and a father. my family comes before anything - period. there are other things i can do to stop bangers from being in my neighborhood than following them, even if its just to have a location and description for the police. what good does it do my family if i'm killed? for those who are inevitably going to say "what good does it do your family to have bangers on your street?" lets have a simple lesson in common sense: i can do other things to fix the banger situation... i can't fix being dead.

you've gotta be kidding me...

i guess you didn't read my post. i admitted that i didn't follow the trial closely. so maybe there were no laws broken, but i'll expand on my personal opinion in a minute. also, these kind of snide remarks filled with negativity are the reason i don't get on here much anymore. whats the point of sticking together if we keep attacking one another? let me ask you this then. your on the neighborhood watch program and you happen to see a drug deal go down in your little gated community. not your every day thing right? do you follow the dealer? what if you happened to see his piece sticking out of the waste band? still following? ok so lets say you follow him and he gets into a car with 3 of his buddys in it? still following? even with a ccw your an IDIOT if you followed after any of these stages. ccw, you have a gun in case he comes at you... but your being a stupid vigilante if you think following him is a good idea. why the F would you put yourself at risk? keep an eye on him from where you are.. i'm not even going to bother going further some will side with me others won't either way the negativity on this board will not change.

the thing about a ccw/stand your ground state is you have to be mature enough to always keep yourself out of the kind situation that zimmerman so willingly walked into. the trial should never have been about murder or manslaughter or whatever (i really didn't follow it very closely) it should have been about negligence. i AM glad that he was found not guilty for the heavier aforementioned charges but as i say, he shouldn't have been charged with them in the first place. obviously i can't ccw here. but i think about how i would handle situations when i move out of this state. i like to avoid people anyway - but there are the times when some idiot in a wawa parking lot wants to make some fun remarks at me. 5 years ago i would have been making remarks back while walking towards him but you have to grow up and swallow your pride and just laugh at how stupid people are. what if marty mcfly had a ccw? everyone who called him chicken (or yellow) would have been shot

i will second the ultimak/bushnell trs-25 combo

personally i'd go either 9mm or AR (even though i don't have an AR at this time) reason: look up these calibers vs a cinder block on youtube... it takes a few shots in the same spot for 9 to get through and could *maybe* take more for the 5.56. there are almost always firewalls between your side to side neighbors in apartments. of course you still need to worry about upstairs, but i doubt you'll need to shoot in that direction if you are ever in a home invasion situation.

a lot of your standard variants were right around 500 or 600 before all this. WASRs, MAK90s, SAR series etc. "higher end" ones like arsenal, waffen werks and vepr were touching the 800 and up mark. for the record 600 is absolutely ridiculous for an unconverted saiga. i don't care if its a "bargain" in present times, i personally would never pay that much and if they stay that much i guess i'll just never have one.

i wanna know how they even knew she was underage. six leos to take on one girl who may or may not be underage who may or may not have bought a 6 pack. i know we dont have all the info but come on now, this one just seems ridiculous.

i will tell a short story in relation to this one: my wife owns an 08 malibu, i am a mechanic, i HATE that malibu with a passion. ok so its easy to work on for the most part.. just the wierd GM electrical problems that are irritating... and yes i was cussing when i found out the bumper had to come off to do headlights, my old blazer was the same way. next time, she is getting an effing honda lol great to hear that your having some father son time dude... i can't wait till my little guy (2 1/2 now) is old enough to do stuff like that with

rock and metal from the 50s and up. johnny cash, the beatles, zeppelin, hendrix, ELP, rush, yes, kansas, pink floyd, metallica, iron maiden, judas priest, dream theater, pain of salvation, coheed and cambria, tool, .... the list just goes on and on.

no, then the headlines would read "deranged south jersey man hunts PEOPLE!!!" only in NJ

another zinger! lolz

lolz lolz lolz

i am no hunter, but i would imagine there are very few species *walking* on earth that couldn't be brought down with a 12ga and proper shot placement. the questionable ones have been mentioned for the most part already, elephant, rhino, etc. the thing is a lot of these animals may just take a LOT longer to actually die from it. think about how much more blood an elephant has in relation to a human. then take the relative size of the slug compared to both the human and elephant. 6 liters drains out pretty quick but 90 gallons (yeah i looked it up) will take a lot longer. all this being said, i'm pretty sure a 12ga used properly with slugs would make short work of any bear.

more free than jersey.. enjoying any 30 round mags yet?

for practicality - spanish for the cool factor - russian i took 2 years of german in high school... but i only remember enough to carry a very, very simple conversation

hasn't he ever seen looney toons? when elmer fudd looks down the barrel and then BLAM! true stupidity.

i have to disagree with #15 - people are super friendly and polite???? wha? maybe thats a thing on the northern west coast... i've been around a good bit of the country and people ARE nicer in places like wyoming/montana/minisota - and then, you have lots of dicks in NJ/delaware/PA i bet if this guy had moved to jersey his take would be different LOL good read though.

i'm playing in a tourny in delaware park tonight. never played a home game - i suck at dealing lol.

most people will say that arsenals are THE top notch AK. i see no evidence otherwise BUT in my opinion you can get one just as good for a lesser price. it may not be as pretty but come on, its an AK. that being said they do look GREAT, the only thing i would change if i had one is the plastic hand guards. as far as other options at the "top tier" level, i hear good things about waffen werks, and VEPR. and of course, if you are handy enough to do it, a converted saiga is probably as close to the real deal as you can get.
