Re: No comprehende
If you don't have a lock, hold open the action and verify you are clear. No Tom, it would never happen to me. I have dealt with many many firearms that don't have slide locks. Yeah.

No comprehende
I've been playing with firearms most of my life and lived in the desert where everyone had them- usually sitting around leaning up against walls in rooms. The military helped me clean up my skills somewhat, but not honestly as much as people think. I've known folks that claimed cleaning accidents. I...

Radical self-expression is not a synonym for "loud, rude, obnoxious, unspiritual, anti-community behavior. You do realize that this is all opinion, right?

I get the Temple. Its a bunch of BMORG funded wood that gets burned at a big desert party. Anything beyond that is personal interpretation. By saying that others 'don't get it'- you instantly put yourself squarely in with the elitist Art snobs whose concepts of art are beyond ours. If you are intere...

I question the religious tolerance website. I've heard rumors that its backed by Scientology.

Why good Lord no! Burning Man is most certainly NOT institutionalized. In order for an event to become institutionalized- you would have to have internal commerce of a brand name product during the event, a zealously litigatiously guarded trademark, a highly publicized CEO, T-shirts/hats/calendaers/...
