I agree with that last post on almost everything lol.. Illegal workers are in every ingle state, just how it is.

However I do agree that the border's should be much better patrolled to eliminate illegals from being able to get in.. I mean.. if an Illegal can get in SO CAN the terrorists.. pretty simple reasoning... All one of them guys has to do is fly to mexico.. run accross the boarder with a few other's.. and then go do their thing...


But all the other stuff i agree with.. No point in stereo typing.. just makes you look like an idiot.. there are good and bad people everywhere...

Oh yes.. I also agree we should take the warning labels off everything.. I mean if a person is dumb enough to go against any common sense on what not to drink, eat, ect.. then let natural selection come into play.. might be a good way to start population control....

Cool bring back the good fireworks, and lets get rid of most of the laws against home made explosives and NFA weapons.

explosives have no real purpose... other than to destroy... especially home made one.. the point is is to let people's own stupidity do them in.. not someone elses stupidity do it..

Firework are the exception.. any idiot who hld on to a firework in thier hand and gets it blown off deserves it... same with lighting them with a propane torch.. if it blows up.. then it was thier own stupid fault...

Those people would have been the same one who were eaten by prehistoric animals.....

Uhhh, wasn't it Kalifornia that wanted to give the illeagles the right to vote? That sure would make it more attractive to the illeagles.

Not everyone in Kalifornia is F'd up, it just seems they have more than their fair share. It's not stereotyping, it's just the way it is. You can't see it because you have no frame of refference.

Chances are high that you would find a homo in san fransisco but you probably wouldn't find a cajun. You'll most likely find a red neck in Georgia but probably not in NY city. I know Kalifornia is overly sensitive to this, for some reason everyone there acts like this doesn't happen, to me that's being an idiot. The simple fact is that it's true. You would find someone who wants to be a movie star in hollyweird a lot easier that you would in weatherford texas. If I were to tell you most of the people in Mexico speak spanish, have darker skin and like to take naps in the afternoon would I be an idiot guilty of steriotyping? Here's another one for ya- container ships mostly have german captians and a phillipino crew, if you're so against steriotyping then you better stop buying things that came here by ship. Get off your liberal soap box and quit trying to twist the facts.

I don't have a soapbox, I use liquid detergent.

Geez, where would I start...I think after your last reply I don't need to respond.

But if you must read the headlines, please try to remember what they say and not how you think you remember them.

I sure hope you grow and expand your horizons some, you're obviously not at the point in life to understand real-world issues.

Cheers....BTW, to get back on topic of the thread, my Huntsman doesn't have a warning label on it.

yeah, I read my post and I guess I got a little out of hand. I don't want to come across as some kind of extremist.

You have to admit though, some of what I say is true. Being politicaly correct is undermining being correct and there's just too many people taking advantage of the resulting corruption.

Someone else is being narrow minded here now.

Fireworks are an exception huh ? But wait they're explosives and have no real purpose ? Or do they ? Are they OK or not ?

The saying "when guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns" if you werent being so closed minded would apply to many other things also, if explosives are definetly only made to destroy then you dont need any fireworks at all. If someone wants to destroy things with an explosive device, a law in place saying the manufacture of said item is simply a small bump compared to the trouble that will result from actually using said device for the harm of people and property. There is a such thing as learning and gaining knowledge, testing and a place / time for such things, next you'll be siding with idiots wanting to ban any and all items used to make a car go faster, because those said items can only be used for racing on streets and endangering people.

I like to blow s**t up. I like guns and I like anything that expels massive amounts of energy really fast. I'm very responsible when I do anything like this, just like anything else, you have to be responsible. When it comes to survival of the fittest I believe in Darwin 100% and there are people out there who are trying to prove him wrong. They will fail.

Imagine if stairs and bathtubs were invented like 5 years ago. The inventors would get their a$$es sued until they were homeless. Then the authorities would lump all kinds of saftey devices on them. You would have to wear a harness and tether whenever you used the stairs or bathtub.

Awww...just do what I do...mention that ya had a few colds ones and have mellowed out since then

Ofcourse there's some truth in what you say...how much is very debatable...how much is what causes stereo-typying and the like.

I'll give you a good example...a few weeks I drove off 280 to 19th ave in San Francisco...drove too far, would up at the Golden gate park...went through the Park to the coast and back around 43rd ave to the park again, backtracked to Martin Luther King drive, up to 17ave to a frinds house...did some messing around in the general vicinity for a few hours covering 5-6 square blocks and went home kinda the same way...very heavy traffic in and out (on a Saturday). (mapquest the area I spent perusing...)

Ya know what? I never saw any indication of a gay/lesbian couple anywhere....yes, I'm a "people watcher" kinda a guy....just an old habit from my traveling days and trying to guess if people were American or Foriegn.

But you know what, I could meet you in Pheonix, up off Indian School Rd and find two gay bars within a few minutes of each other.

Now imagine the guy from out of town that walked into those two places in Phoenix...what would he be telling his buds when he got back home?

That's how things start, and snowball.

One thing you have to realize, it's a very, very large state, full of so many different cultures, etc...ofcourse with such diversity, different view points have to be heard....been like this dating back to antiwar protests of the 60's, and has only gathered steam since. That's why you get the so many off the wall things said...ofcourse the news plays it up and so forth...

FWIW, I live in a smallish town in California...there isn't a gay bar here, African American population is probably less than 1% total pop has to be 16-17K now), maybe 3-5% Eastern European...proably 30% hispanic.

Know what? We're still a red-neck town at heart, have a big rodeo each year, etc...not what you'd think of "California"...but probably is the make up of 90% of the towns in the state...and I've driven and been in sooo many...the other few % are made up by the big towns that get all the pub...LA, SF...maybe a bit of San Diego...but eliminate the "big three" market places, and we're no different from upstae New York without the accent

Sorry for the long ramble...ya, I er, had a few cold ones and am relaxing right now....

But back to on topic, checked my dad's Huntsman also....it doesn't have a warning label on it either.

I wonder if we got "bootleg" helmets?

I can't have any cold ones, the pills I take don't mix too well with them. Thanks for the tip anyway.

I'm always cracking myself up. The day I die I'll be in a straight jacket sitting in a puddle of my own **** laughing like an idiot. Getting back to the original topic, I never got cancer from my welding mask but if I turn the **** on the back all the way to the right my head goes numb.

Most likely the cancerous material would be in the lense. The auto dimming function will likely be the culprit. In the Army, the lenses that cover the TADS/PNVS on the Apache caused cancer, no matter what state you were in. Its the film in between the lenses that causes the problem. Something with the way it filters the light. Same as an auto dimming hood. I have Model glue that causes cancer in Cali. But only in pregnant women, so Im good.I think they go a little far on this stuff sometimes. You would probably have to inject it into the blood stream for it to effect you. But given that information, Im sure there is a dopehead somewhere who would try it, and a family at home all to willing to sue the snot out of the welding hood company. " Well there wasnt no warning on it".
