I love this foum for the people too. I've been on for a while now, but I'm still the New Kid with a lot of my questions!

G&G Forums is great...

...not only because of the interesting and informative gun and game info sharing, and the comradely we share together, but also and more importantly because members at large recognize and appreciate the direct connection there is between our 2nd Amendment rights and all our other rights, liberties and freedoms.

One right taken away takes away from the others...

...until we're left empty-handed and in serious trouble.

Thanks to those who have the courage and commitment to stand up and speak out for freedom...

...and for our rights and liberties.

I think about this quite a lot. (yes, i'm a fairly dull person).
Part of me resents being told I have to wear a seat belt (or crash helmet, etc). Part of me thinks, if some idiot sideswipes me, I don't want their head landing in my passenger seat. It's my responsibility to make myself as safe as possible, I will usually meet that responsibility. It is others responsibility to do the same. unfortunately, not everyone is responsible.

You're doing a great work with this site Chris...

...and, thank you again for so doing.

We need more doers of good in the world...

...just like you!!!

i remember being that newbie too, almost 5 yrs ago. and i still dont consider myself a senior member. i have been deployed and all kinds of stuff since i joined this site. but i still look at every one of these guys and gays as family. they wont steer you wrong. they arent here to screw you. everybody generally wants to help you.

just found this... its amazing what ya find pokin around at 2 A.M. sorry to hear about the first job and congrats on the second job, hope ya come back around some more now... i miss your sparkling personality on some of these posts here at G&G... lmao!!! welcome back buddy!

This is a great site full of great people. I remember being that newbie. the folks here have such great knowledge, and a fantastic willingness to share it with a guy from LA just getting into shooting. Thanks Chris, and thanks all members.

The members here are like family to me and this site has brought us all together.Thanks Chris

It is a great site, and thanks Chris, for the work you put in to keep it that way.

caopai, my kids adhered to the law,and only went shooting with me. Both sons enlisted in the USMC, and one is still in, after 12 years. They are now legal gun owners, and have never had a problem. What everyone is saying is, obey the law, and protectyour future rightto own firearms. If you get caught doing something illegal now, it may cost you the right to own fireamrs when you come of age. Thatis it in a nutshell, along with the fact that the membership does not condone anything done illegally, by minors. Read up on the laws, and follow them. When you reach the legal age, to own firearms, by all means exercise your right. We are simply trying tokeep you,and ourselves out of any possible jam!

PS. When you turn 21, come and see me, and I'll help you with your first purchase! You can get me online!

caopai,that isn't what Chris is saying.Reread his blog.He's not saying all teenagers are irresponsible.What you type on here could get him and this site in big trouble.Think about it........

I honestly don't see what the big deal is. I've learned enough in my ~8 years of shooting to know more than *SOME* adults. Whenever I'm at the range I'm one of the people who points out a saftey issue to the lesser experienced shooters, of if they just made a mistake (I know mistakes can be deadly). Half the time I am more mature and detail oriented than the shooters I correct. I know that it is illegal to purchase firearms and ammunition, but it is not illegal to use them. I guess some of the comments here are based on the assumption that "teenagers" are not able to assume the responsibility of using a firearm? I'm not quite sure, but thats what it sounds like to me.

Nice to hear from you guys.
Running a new branch now. You can't keep a brother down.
Wha hahahahaha evil laughter

Glad you checked in with us.It looks like thrillbilly missed you a lot. LOL
