What a stupendous, what an incomprehensible machine is man! Who can endure toil, famine, stripes, imprisonment & death itself in vindication of his own liberty, and the next moment...inflict on his fellow men a bondage, one hour of which is fraught with more misery than ages of that which he rose in rebellion to oppose. Thomas Jefferson to Jean Nicholas Demeunier, January 24, 1786.
So, while we fight to "Free" Iraq and Afghanistan from oppression, we here in the U.S. are imposing more and more laws and oppression on it's citizens. Friday night at 7:30pm on Tustin Ave. right across from the Orange mall, the traffic stopped. My son and I talked about how busy it was around this time of year with everyone out Christmas shopping. then I noticed that the south bound side of this road was the only side that was stopped and we saw cars making "U" turns in the middle of the of the blvd. My son then mentioned it must be some kind of accident. So, as I do when I am stuck in traffic I turned on the radio to an all news all the time station in hopes of hearing some news about what we were in for. I didn't hear any news. I listened all the up to where the traffic jam was created. When I discovered what was going on I was really really pissed. It was a sobriety check point. There were I don't know how many motor cops, auto cops, a trailer that was a make shift office people being breathalyzed and one arrogant sheriff asking me if I had been drinking. It was all I could do to keep my mouth from running and insulting the cop and whatever moron thought of stopping all traffic on a very large thoroughfare in front of a mall at Christmas time. Then I realized its all about control. It's all about power. It's all about oppression...oh ya I know they will argue safety like the anti gun liberal nuts argue. Even when research shows safety has nothing to do with why they do what they do. We are in for it folks. Baton down the hatches. The storm is coming and it's ugly. They will have road blocks asking us for our papers. They will be raiding our houses, taking away our guns and shooting us for using the wrong words.

Heavy Metal
Heavy Metal Class shooters are a group of folks who use a bigger caliber gun than the guys who are into the competition just for speed sake. The speed shooters use light load pea shooters for competition. Heavy Metal Class guns are not designed for ultimate speed in shooting. They are designed to be more efficient in killing the enemy. It is a class of shooting competition where folks, that have to go up against evil forces, can compete against one another and hone their battle skills. There are all kinds of shooting classes. This is but one kind of shooting competition.
