Well, it depends on how you are using the term. Since, it was used to describe every conservative in the past 10yrs, I would say NO. If you mean (on the financial front) Bush/Cheney didn't turn out to be conservative at all... then YES.

Why would you want the true hive mind? We'd be beating blacks making asians build more railroads.

Wolfowitz is the only neo-con on that list.

Bush accepted some of the arguments and made them policy while Cheney and Rumsfeld tried to make them work but they weren't really neo-con in the traditional sense.

In the non-traditional sense it means... those with views on the right with which the neocon-name-caller disagrees.

Kinda like when I call libs commies. But I do it for fun knowing it isn't accurate. Most people using the term neocon aren't doing it for fun nor do they know it isn't accurate.

^^^^ truth

Bullets cost enough as it is depending on what you buy. I have box of 20 high performance ballistic-tip 9mm round that cost me like $40. Yet on the other hand you can buy a 50 count box of regular 9mm full metal jacket rounds for $17.

I only use the cheaper full metal jacket rounds for the shooting range anyway.

PS: Anyone down to go to Quail Creek Shooting Range on North 35W & 1171 some time? I normally rock it solo and end up hanging out with the Range Officer and end up in long conversations about nothing and everything all at once.

Say hello to a larger black market for ammo.


I'd also like to ask seriously, "Has meth use declined since the caps/limits were placed a few years back?"

Wasn't this a Chris Rock bit? Something about making the bullets cost $1000 a piece and see how many gangsters are out shooting them?

so when was the last time you had to bust some caps?

If a caprice classic full of gangsters has the gas tank half to 1/4 full becuase of high gas prices, do think the bangers will keep their mags half or 1/4 full because of high ammo prices? Maybe instead of being strapped with 4, 1/4 full clips, they have a gun pool and share one fully loaded gun on alternating days?
