Goods n Bads

I started trying Seleccio Natural maybe three weeks ago. I figured why not venture up this seldom tried route and see if it were worth trying. Sharma kept suggesting that it was my style and that I would probably like it. My friend Tom Bolger had tried it and claimed the route was awesome, but really hard. The one thing I have learned in my climbing-related life is to always try. If you have the inclination and the time… GO for it. If you have a little bit left in the tank for one more go at your project… GO FOR IT… This is my code these days and seems to be working.

chossymono - West Germany? What is this from the Cold War era?

Paul Dusatko - Preach it Brother!

EEE - Joe%2C%20

It%20wasn’t%20the%20gun%20that%20killed%20anyone%2C%20it%20was%20the%20person.%20

I%20have%20been%20a%20long%20time%20viewer%20of%20this%20blog.%20I%20have%20usually%20enjoyed%20your%20content%20and%20have%20enjoyed%20many%20of%20your%20posts.%20This%20one%20however%20is%20as%20illogical%20as%20it%20gets.%20

It%20is%20obvious%20you%20have%20never%20been%20in%20a%20situation%20where%20negotiations%20or%20fleeing%20a%20scene%20isn’t%20an%20option%20and%20are%20forced%20to%20fight%20or%20die.%20Guns%20have%20saved%20THOUSANDS%20of%20people%20each%20year.%20I%20strongly%20recommend%20you%20do%20some%20logical%20research%20first%20before%20assuming%20you%20know%20anything%20on%20the%20matter.%20Making%20guns%20illegal%20will%20only%20make%20law%20abiding%20citizens%20victims%20to%20criminals%20who%20will%20obtain%20guns%20and%20use%20them%20to%20their%20advantage.%20No%20gun%20ban%20or%20gun%20elimination%20will%20do%20away%20with%20criminals%20owning%20and%20using%20guns%20against%20innocent%20people.%20

I%20find%20it%20funny%20that%20you%20would%20like%20to%20see%20guns%20taken%20out%20of%20our%20society%2C%20yet%20you%20support%20the%20alcohol%20industry%20so%20avidly%2C%20when%20factually%20speaking%2C%20over%2080%2C000%20people%20die%20in%20America%20alone%20just%20from%20alcohol%20each%20year.%20Yet%2C%20you%20are%20interested%20in%2010%2C728%20people%20who%20died%20because%20of%20firearm%20related%20′incidents’.%20It%20doesn’t%20specify%20the%20details%20of%20those%20deaths.%20

For%20a%20college%20graduate%20like%20yourself%2C%20I%20would%20think%20you%20would%20have%20approached%20your%20audience%20with%20a%20more%20formal%20basis%20built%20around%20research.%20

I%20will%20never%20surrender%20my%20right%20to%20bear%20arms.%20To%20do%20so%20would%20be%20a%20disgrace%20to%20my%20innate%20right%20to%20protect%20the%20gift%20of%20life%20and%20liberty.%20Think%20of%20the%20thousands%20of%20Americans%20who%20have%20died%20protecting%20your%20right%20to%20bear%20arms.%20

Very%20disappointed%20in%20your%20decision%20to%20post%20such%20a%20ridiculous%20piece.%20

Mike - EEE, when purely the person and not the gun is the killer, the statistics above does not shed a good light in the US, does it?

Mike - edit: “on the US”

Chuck - Mike, I agree with you. EEE, before you continue to spray your coined NRA gun rhetoric, consider this; if Adam Lanza had strangled all his victims then you could say that guns didn’t kill. However, it would have been very difficult for Lanza to have killed that many so quickly without the use of guns. Guns do kill. Also, keep in mind that when the 2nd Amendment was established, we had muzzle loaders. My recommendation is that we allow folks like EEE to maintain their “innate” 2nd Amendment right with the same weapons available at the the time of 2nd Amendment conception. Awesome post Joe, most intelligent Americans would agree with you 100%
