Though I don't have one at the moment, I am planning to get a firearm sometime in the future. Certain reasons and situations have prompted me to purchase one.
I have always supported your right to kick the ass of anyone that threatens you or your family. Unfortunately, I question if we're going to have that right for much longer.
If you do own a handgun, assault rifle, shotgun, sniper rifle (you're fucking awesome if you say "yes" to this), please feel free to tell us about it. Also, could you give a first time gun owner some information on a good weapon?
I'm curious to know if Tendo City has any Coast to Coast fans.
I got acquainted with Coast to Coast back in 2008. Since then, I've become a true Coastian. I listen to the show almost every night, and always make it a habit of catching my favorite guests. Some of my favorite guests are:
-Richard C. Hoagland
-Jim Marrs
-Alex Jones
-Linda Moulton Howe
Even if a lot of what they talk about isn't true, it's still intriguing to open your mind to the research and ideas that they have.
Greetings, Tendo City. The name's Adam, and I'm happy to say that I have Ryan--the founder of this site--to thank for directing me to this place. I'm pretty sure Ryan is using the user name Weltall. If that is you, Ryan, what up, dawg?
A little bit about me:
-Name: Adam (duh)
-Nintendo freak
-Sony fanboy (sorry )
-Victim of compulsive reading disorder
-Individualist anarchist libertarian (yes, that is possible)
Nothing else to really report. If you wanna know more, just ask. Later, peeps.
Bluray for episode 1 came out this week. Basically, the visual style, especially the characters, is a move back to the style that was prominent in the 80's. It's much more grounded and realistic than the look of some of the newer Gundam series. The animation is 2D for the most part with some CG here and there for spaceships and things and it looks like they put a lot of money into because it looks spectacular.
The story kind of becomes a bit standard towards the end of the first episode, but it's so well done that no one should be bothered by that. On the other hand, if you don't really know anything about the Gundam universe, it's easy to get lost because the show assumes that you already knew who certain people and organizations are and their motivations. If you want to watch Unicorn without going through all the series, movies, and OVAs then make sure to keep Google open to search for key names.
The music is stellar as well, moving from sweeping and epic to slow and intimate with ease.
Basically this is the anime that people who have been saying that all recent anime is terrible have been waiting for.
I used to be a total laissez faire conservative. In recent months, though, my long-standing hatred of the patricians and the wealthy and my naturally-occuring humility and compassion for my fellow man have been sliding the notch of my political spectrometer to the left a little.
I know well the difference between capitalism and communism, and IMO the latter cannot practically be employed in society. Even if it could, it should not be, because it allows no room for the hard-working individual to succeed in society. I liked capitalism because, in theory, it allows the hard-working person to get ahead, and leaves the loafers in the dust. But, I don't know anymore. More and more, I see that it leaves everyone but the evil in the dust. To get ahead, you really do just have to be shamefully greedy and self-oriented.
