Duckus Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 I'll be a stone's throw away from Austin in the area north of San Antonio. Welcome. I moved to Austin in 2008. San Antonio is actually pretty decent. Some cool neighborhoods. Spurs games are a lot of fun. Austin is 45 mins away. Today it was 75 degrees.

PokerPacker Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Welcome. I moved here in 2008. Live in Austin. San Antonio is actually pretty decent. Some cool neighborhoods.Yeah, I flew out to San Antonio a month ago to look at apartments. The north end of San Antonio seems pretty nice, and there's no shortage of strip malls. Today it was 75 degrees. Farewell, pond hockey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornaSkinsFan83 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Yeah Austin is nice and I liked San Antonio. Also liked El Paso. Kind of had an Old West cowboy feel. As for the rest, I was stationed at Fort Hood. Killeen (also known as "Kill Each and Every N-word" locally, not making it up) is probably the most miserable place I've ever been. I rented a three room single family home with a garage and a backyard for $450 a month. That's how many people DON'T want to live there. Only place to go was Walmart, the dry cleaners or their lame ass clubs. The only time I went to a strip club in my life, some 1st Sgt, in uniform, hooked me up with a lap dance from some chick named Mercedes. I ran into her about a week later at the gas station and started rapping with her. Started telling her where my house was when I noticed she had no teeth. She defintely wasn't the only toothless ho I met there (how you have no teeth in your 20's, I don't know. And I've been dipping for 15 years). I quickly forgot my address. Some fat chick raped me when I passed out drunk--she physically dragged my unconscious ass into my bedroom, stripped me and started doing...ugh...until I woke up and threw her crying ass out--then when I tried to explain it to her cute friend who I actually liked (think Charlize Theron), who was also sporting a black eye from her husband, she smacked the **** out of me and I never saw her again. All anybody did was get drunk and fight. Then Iraq hit and the whole base shipped out. All the businesses, the dry cleaners, shut down and the only people left in the clubs were their lonely wives (so easy it was depressing. Just yuck.) So yeah, I'll drive around Texas before I drive through it. Thank God I escaped. Also I've always told people that Dallas is basically DC with NONE of the cool **** or people. A big airport and crap else. There's a reason the First 48 films there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tshile Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 You know... If we had a fence, then we could throw some people over it... I don't recall anything in the bill of rights about the right to stay on this side of the fence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokerPacker Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Indoor pond hockey is fairly common....or the wheeled version. I find ice overrated That is not pond hockey There's nothing quite like getting out on the pond and skating to your hearts content, and then some neighbors and some strangers show up and next thing you know, you've got an impromptu hockey game going on that lasts 4 hours. Bring out some beers and then hide them when some other nosey neighbors call the cops on you because technically you're not supposed to be on the ice, but then your friend who's playing with you is a cop and he convinces is fellow blues to look the other way. Fortunately there's still ice hockey as apparently the only ice rink within a 50 mile radius is right in the area I'm looking to live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twa Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I'd much rather play in a pond than on it. add This is a positive walk to protest gun free killing zones and this page will maintain a positive response. You do not like what we are promoting please start your own walk and demonstrations on how you plan on saving lives in your gun free king zones. This is NOT about open carrying, this IS about my/our children’s safety on school property that WE are paying for. http://www.mediaite.com/online/gun-rights-groups-to-stage-fake-mass-shooting-on-tx-campus-to-protest-gun-free-zones/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twa Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 First thought I had. Today's Wednesday. Plenty of time for a couple of nutjobs (of any race, color, or religion) anywhere in the country to travel down to TX in time for Saturday's festivities. I am offended at the notion we need to import nutjobs here, particularly in the Capitol area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I'm just curious what exactly this is supposed to solve/address. So far, all I see is "We love America". I also find it surprising that they hold this on the same campus where the bell tower shootings took place. But hey, can't expect some people to show even a little bit of human decency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 What's going to happen at this staged mass shooting is that no one will fake die except the shooter. He's going to pull out his fake gun and immediately be put down by multiple concealed fake gun carrying civilians. It's going to show us all how having guns everywhere would make the world safer.

Elessar78 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 No one has given me a satisfactory answer of how, in the event of another active shooter, law enforcement arriving on the scene will distinguish between the lawful shooter and the criminal shooter.
