Pah, that's a midget compared to mine, plus the proportions are all wrong, the distance between the counterbalance and the fulcrum is too long and the firing end is too short.Speaker to Animals wrote:Ruh roh..

For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

It's supposed to come with the added benefit of having voting rights while non property owners don't.

Then we let everyone vote, but kept only the property owners on the hook for the bill.

Re: Europe Boring Until it's Not
Well for $1,800 a year they can suck my balls. I would much rather have a little higher sales tax vs property tax. Raise the sales tax, in my area, from 7% to 9%. I would be perfectly fine with that. Put non property owners on the hook for the bill along with property owners. To me it's all about true ownership of land and property.Okeefenokee wrote:It's supposed to come with the added benefit of having voting rights while non property owners don't.

I mean, poxy little fixed counterweight with a 1-1 ratio arm. I bet I could throw a pumpkin further than that useless little steel job without even using my treb'. I'd be embarrassed to put that picture online. The 4x4 is on a trailer too, bet it's not even a runner.GrumpyCatFace wrote:You goddamn majestic bastard.Montegriffo wrote:https://vimeo.com/169732138Speaker to Animals wrote:

PARIS — A gunman opened fire on French police Thursday on Paris’s best-known boulevard, killing one officer and wounding two others before being fatally shot himself in an incident that raised the specter of renewed terrorism just three days before voters go to the polls to elect a new president.
The Islamic State, through its affiliated Amaq News Agency, quickly claimed responsibility for the attack, which sent panicked pedestrians fleeing into side streets and prompted police to seal off the renowned Champs-Elysee, close metro stations and order tourists back into their hotels. The terrorist organization said the attack was carried out by a Belgian national it identified only as Abu Yusuf al-Baljiki, a pseudonym.
