Can I have the last six minutes of my life back?
"The very purpose of a Bill of Rights was to withdraw certain subjects from the vicissitudes of political controversy, to place them beyond the reach of majorities and officials and to establish them as legal principles to be applied by the courts." Justice Robert Jackson, WV St. Board of Education v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624 (1943)
"I don’t care how many pull ups and sit ups you can do. I care that you can move yourself across the ground with a fighting load and engage the enemy." Max Velocity
Along with contracting Russian helicopters complete with vodka fueled pilots, using Russian howitzers with Russian ammo, Russian mortars, heavy machine guns, etc, etc.
Shoot your ammo-it doesn't care where it comes from. Honestly, I'd say you're overthinking this whole thing. Then again-I shop at Walmart, so I'm aiding the enemy as well.
I am too poor to let politics determine the country of origin of my ammo. I may sometimes steer away from corrosive in some things, but only because I sometimes don't have the time (4 kids) to clean my weapons immediately as much as I would like to.
I say take advantage of cheap ammo while we can...it won't last forever..
Let me ask a pointed question, and no offense is meant. Just to make you think.
Evidently you are at least considering the possibility that having any financial deals with businesses based or that originate in a country that you consider our enemy is immoral.
So if you think that way, why don't you just act on your convictions? What does it matter what anyone else thinks?
Before I injured my back I had gotten my run time down to ten miles in ninety-minutes. I was intending to go to Ranger school, finish another four years in the U.S. Army, and then learn the Soviet National Anthem, and go join their military. I wanted to fight against Chechnya, and Georgian Muslim separitsists and Terrorists. We had our 9-11-01, they had the Beslan incident and the incident at Mocow Theatre. I just want to kill terrorists. I don't care who I fight for. I still contribute what I can in the way of simple propaganda and intelligence, but now that I'm out of the fight, that's the best I can offer. Remember this though, the Soviet people were as offended by Beslan as we were by 9-11. We are united against the same enemy.
In Beslan, Civilians are prohibited from owning Military weapons and ammo, however When the townspeople showed up at the site with loaded AK mags to donate to the Soldiers, nobody said a word, nor were the civilians questioned nor detained. God Bless Mother Russia.
