IMA looking for a nice H&R Model 999. I'll pay $100. over what the gummit offers. Meet me at the Police Station weapons turn-in point. I'll be the grumpy old man sitting on the tailgate of his F-150. Come alone, and butt first or cased please.

The stories I've heard mention the payout of $2000. Since you can get an "assault rifle" for less than that, people will soon be going to gun shows, buying out their stock, and making a handsome profit.

they way they define them, my 50-year-old Remington Nylon 66 .22 cal would have been an assault weapon - considering my grandma bought it with Green Stamps, that would be quite a profit.....

Chuy = Hitting a brick wall at 120 mph
Emmanuel = Hitting a brick wall at 110 mph
End result will be the same, but with Emmanuel, the city will avoid Tango Uniform a "skootch" longer (maybe just long enough for him to shift blame to his successor.).
[BIGSTORY.AP.ORG] Sen. John Maverick McCain ... the Senator-for-Life from Arizona, former presidential candidate and even more former foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution... announced Tuesday that he will run for re-election in 2016, making official a move that has been widely expected for the Republican as he looks to extend his nearly three-decade career in the Senate.
McCain described his plans to run before an Arizona Chamber of Commerce luncheon in Phoenix, receiving a loud applause when he told the crowd: "With a full heart, I ask Arizonans again for their support as I seek re-election to the Senate. I'm as determined as ever to seek your trust."
His appearance before a pro-business crowd comes ahead of a race in which he will likely face a challenge from the right amid tea party dissatisfaction over his record in the Senate. The Republican Party is currently divided between pro-business and conservative factions, and McCain's announcement location put him in friendly territory as he begins the race.
McCain will be 80 by Election Day, but says he is in great shape and has much work to do in the Senate.
"I work 16-hour days. Look at what I've done for Arizona and America," he told The News Agency that Dare Not be Named. "Make your own judgment."

I'd vote for him if he chose the right running mate for VP.
I'd never vote for this A-hole. Just go away you perfumed prince. If it wasn't for your family of Admirals, you'd have been simply known as a guy ran while his ship burned, the USS Forest Fire Forrestal. You still cant get your story straight about that even after all these years you self-aggrandizing, patronizing, lying sack of shit.

OS, you can say what about McCain the politician, but as a Naval officer, he was a hero. He climbed out of his A4 on the Forrestal, and barely got away. I am not sure what you wanted him to do - put out the fire by himself?
Once he became a POW, he refused the early release he was offered as the son of an admiral. He insisted on no special treatment, and was tortured so badly that even today he cannot raise his arms above shoulder level.

I have read many bad things about McCain. THen I discovered they were written at the time he faced Obama. Obama, you know that guy that every time he is trailing there is a an opportune revelation destroying his opponent reputation. Hey, he wouldn't even have been the Deopcratic candidate for the Illinois senate.

The only thing worse than Obama winning the presidency in 2008 would have been McCain winning. We had a choice between two Manchurian candidates and it was a no win situation for America. Remind me to contribute to whichever Tea Party candidate runs against this old fart in the Republican primary.

McCain will do what he always does - pay lip service to conservative principles in the run up to the election, and revert to Senator McSquishy the day after.
#11
As a Senator he tried to be friends with the left and got taken again and again and again. His political instincts are horrible and he appears to stand for nothing. Why run again John, what new do you have to offer?

The day an Iranaian nuke goes off in America I will refresh your memories
I never heard or saw any evidence of any Republican willing to apply force to Iran the way it needs to be applied if those mad men are to be prevented from developing a nuclear weapon. That includes McCain. Bush had his chance and ended up leaving it to Obama. That was a tragic failure.
We need an alternative to the Republican Party if the best they can do is McCain, Fiorina and Bush/Bush/Bush.
#16
Guys, he was NOT injured. And Navy footage shows him running away across the deck while his crew chief burned to death. He went below, and ended up in the pilots ready room watching the firefighting remotely while others pitched in to make up for the 100+ who died topside fighting the fires.
He flew into wires in Spain, and crashed 2 other aircraft as a pilot due to carelessness and rash behavior.
His family kept him from being disciplined. Ops admiral was a family friend who kept McCain off the mast as a favor to his dad, also an admiral.
So stop spreading the horseshit falsified McCain hero stuff. It's a story that McStain tells, but it doesn't match the facts.
The POW stuff is true and commendable. But his actions prior to that, and afterward are the portrait of a self aggrandize get POS.
#18
He served our country. Fine. He was a POW, a horror no one deserved, not ever Bergdahl, no matter how he got there. He did some great things in the Senate for our nation and for America. He has outlived his usefulness in DC and in Arizona. Like a pro ball player that is too old, he was great in his time, now he has to step aside, part of getting old. I will vote for whoever is running against him.

State Department Spokeswoman Marie Harf said Tuesday that President Barack Obama's wording had been "a little mixed up" and "muddled" when he stated, in an NPR interview, that the deal being struck with Iran would eventually enable it to break out and build a nuclear bomb in "near zero" time.

Yeah no kidding.
Knew what the questions were going to be.
Had all the time to come up with and practice the answer.
Had editorial discretion to edit or even remove, likely even to take another swing at that segment.
Segment was reviewed and approved by both NPR and Team Obama.
And they had to drag harf up and state that the greatest pontifix maximus since Publius Cornelius Scipio Nasica doesn't know what he is talking about concerning Iran and His April Fools Accord.
So then someone thought that was a good idea as well?
[NPR - If you can stand it] Anyone who thinks President Obama will shy away from presidential politics in 2016, think again. The petulant adolescent responds to his union base.
Obama scoffed at Republican Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's suggestion that he would, on Day 1, revoke any nuclear agreement with Iran if he is elected president.
"It would be a foolish approach to take," Obama said in an interview with NPR's Steve Inskeep, "and perhaps Mr. Walker -- after he's taken some time to bone up on foreign policy -- will feel the same way."
There's a full transcript, and here's the full video of the interview -- it is cued to Obama's full answer on this question:
The shot comes as the president tries to sell the framework of a deal between his administration, other world powers and Iran to curtail Iran's nuclear weapons program in exchange for the lifting of some economic sanctions. It also comes months after a trip overseas for Walker, in which he declined to weigh in on foreign policy -- and in the midst of campaign kickoff season with several presidential candidates set to announce their intentions to run for president this month.
