Look, I am not big on pissing matches, but you can't brush aside the fact that this guy SHOT someone who posed ABSOLUTELY NO THREAT to him. You can paint this pedophelia or whatever, but these are two teenagers fooling around. Wrong, right, it doesn't matter. This stepfather's response was...
:bs:
I cant believe how you spend so much time preaching personal accountability, and then defend attempted murder. Let's use a little logic here. Like it or not, trespassing or not, shooting this kid was entirely unnecessary. Murder is murder, whether or not you think it may be justified...
Mr Ryan,
I don't mind if you disagree with me, but I don't understand what you are trying to say. Can you try to explain your point in a different way? If you've got a suggestion, I'd like to hear it.
THIS!!!!
Personally, I find it alarming the number of internet rambos who claim that they will jump out of bed, half asleep, grab a gun, run out of their room, and start blazing. Some night someone is going to shoot their wife after she drops a dish during her midnight snack. Loud noises at...
Staying back 500 feet isn't always possible. Does this mean that on the highway no one can pass the dump truck? They loose rocks sideways too, not just straight back. Bottom line, IMO, the truck driver is responsible for his load. I took a rock chip from a truck that was waaay ahead of me...
He's very lucky he and his wife weren't killed.
Answer an unexpected knock on the door at 11pm without looking first? Really? You're kidding me, right? ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE.
Only by God's grace is this man still alive. Gun or otherwise, don't make that mistake. It can be, and sometimes...
It's true!!
For those of you who doubt, I can put you in contact with the guy who has over 1/2 a million on a 550. It was over 400,000 when he had it rebuilt. They just don't build 'em like they used to, eh? :D
Time to man up. Go to him and say, "listen, our little fights are getting out of hand and someone is going to get hurt when neither of us really wants that. Lets act like men and not be jerks to each other. I've made my mistakes, but can we just leave them behind us?"
Everybody gets pissed...
Trigger discipline like that, someone is likely to get shot. Hopefully they catch this guy so they have another chance to reform him through our "justice" system.
Oh, BTW, you might consider simply using a set of pallet forks to haul logs in lieu of a grapple hook. We didn't have access to a grapple and the forks worked very well for us. The only problem is that you have to drive carefully to keep the logs from moving if they are very long. Start by...
Rental rates aren't too bad when you start renting by the month. Would 1 or 2 months be enough to get your job done? The rental house can deliver it, saving you the hassle of truck and trailer.
A 700 or 800 series Bobcat will pick up the log you mentioned in your OP. My recommendation would...
I am VERY happy to see that this idea is being supported and I hope everything goes well. Sadly, I recently moved to Pittsburgh so I cannot attend. If in Indiana, I would cancel my plans in order to attend this match, I think this is a nitch with HUGE potential.
This post is solely to...
