Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

get the picture.
So you're saying because I'm successful and you're not, that I should expect an uprising?

If you're too lazy to succeed, I'm betting you're also too lazy to fight..

I am NOT responsible for your well being.. Take some responsibility in your own destiny for goodness sakes..

Prison? Ha!

If things get so bad they are coming for me, the prisons most likely will have been emptied.

I've got enough ammo to have "all-comers" look like a few cords of cut wood coming up the hill.

But hey, you're welcome to try to make it up the driveway first.

Threatening prison time for defending oneself against someone else breaking the law. That's priceless.

Once again, it is demonstrated, this boards most vocal supporters of war and military action by the government are people who have no reality-based understanding of war and military strategy beyond what they have seen at their local Cinema.

Motion detectors, lol.


Remember that old move "The 'Burbs" with Tom Hanks. I bet you're that Bruce Dern character.

Where did I say anything about military action by government?

You have no idea about the level of my training or ability. Nor do you have any idea about how my property is secured.

I welcome you to find out, however.

I do own a heavy duty meat grinder too, so be warned.

your point is taken but I believe invalid.

My kid would only ever be in danger from a capitalist run amok aristocracy that would limit the resources of a nation to only those few that can afford to pay.
