Couldn’t be more wrong. If your gunna post make sure it’s accurate.

hahaha, sorry dad..........whats gunna mean?

If you need some tips for Weymouth, let me know, been a while since i was back, but spent 20 years growing up thar!

This is how i see it? feel free to copy and paste and amend if i missed something.

If we win:

• We stay up

If we lose:

• Watford win or draw-we go down
• Watford lose but lose by less than 2 goals than we concede-we go down
• Bournemouth win by 2 goals-We go down
• Watford lose by more goals or same conceded than we do-We stay up
• Bournemouth must win in any scenario to stay up

If we draw:

• Watford draw-we stay up
• Watford win-we go down
• Bournemouth are out of it

Did anyone watch Watford vs City? Scorelines never tell the full story against them. Did they actually look bothered? 

They looked very bothered - citeh that is. Watford got overran badly. could have been 6 or 7

Am I right in remembering that you recently got the right to vote and voted Republican because of the gun rights?  Would you vote for Trump in November?

I became a citizen in 2017, and i respectfully decline to let anybody (wife and mum included) who i vote for!

Trump and the election, oh boy thats a completely different conversation!

Serious? Why? And if so then sorry but that's just what the media want you to believe, a lot of gun ownership and safety issues etc I think stem from being scared of crime and other gun owners

I personally don't feel like that at home or out and about, definitley not in brum 

Would I own a gun if I lived in the states? Hard to tell, I would almost definitely be part of a gun club and enjoy shooting some serious weapons for fun down a range in a controlled environment that's for sure, I love shooting in the uk but out and about or at home? I just don't have that mentality that I need to protect my family, from what exactly? If crime was that bad and I was that scared of it then its not somewhere I could live, moving would be my first choice over a gun under my bed 

I'm not sat in bed right now with my wife and child with a single grain of concern that someone is coming in to my house tonight so I need a gun, **** that that's no way to live your life 

sorry mate, i was only joking, my cousin had told me some horror stories around certain parts of brum. I would def not carry an illegal firearm on me! my bad!

What changes would you like to see implemented, e.g., Should there be a little on the number of registered firearms per household? What do you think about the idea of having to insure your guns. The obvious gun talking points or anything else that comes into your mind as a gun owner and a CC holder.

I know that's a lot, so I appreciate any thoughts you have. Sensible gun discussion is kinda tough to have around here (mainly in that I don't know many gun owners), and the media is only ever interested in clicks these days. 

I appreciate your willingness to engage in dialog, i think as a gun 'enthusiast' for wont of a better word i do get a bad rap!

The biggest thing id like to see is a ban on bump stocks, these are the things the las vegas shooter was able to use to aid him in multiple killings, no true gun owner has a use for those.

I def am agreement with the no alcohol policy (FL i believe has no such policy paging @Brumerican)

apart from that mate its tough for me as i am responsible gun owner, so i do everything right and by the books. i dont have all the answers but more than willing to answer respectful questions like yours honestly!

Would you carry a piece if you lived in America, Serious question

I do live in the states and have my concealed carry permit allowing me to carry a firearm. Do i carry everywhere? no, as i like to have a beer with lunch/dinner etc.. and you're not allowed to carry whist having a tot.

I mainly carry if im going on road trips (we have reciprocity with other states allowing you to carry).

He sicked up a shard of bone last night and we thought that might have been causing the problem.   Took him to the new vet this morning, who've done a chest xray and he's got additional foreign bodies in his throat.   The vet said they'll try and remove them via an endoscopy but it could go either way.   

With this and supporting Villa,  life can be pretty shitty sometimes. 

suerte mate. Thinking of you.

Maybe a similar question could be asked of @Dom_Wren 

Dom, prior to moving to the states what was your attitude to guns, if any? What was the catalyst for any change, sport? Protection? 
 

great question mate! id only ever seen hunting shotguns in the UK, as i lived in the sticks. 

My catalyst was target shooting. Its my golf, me and the target, intrinsic feedback to make the bully. Then it evolved when i did research into concealed carry, longer range target shooting, and then it evolved more into finding a culture of similar minded people, gun ranges etc...

Yes a big part of it is protection for sure, ive just recently bought a tactical shotgun for home defense as things were looking really hairy here.

Ive always said im more than happy to answer questions, so fire away, pun intended

Didn't know where to post this. ICE (US Immigration) has ordered all foreign students that colleges go to full online courses they have to leave or transfer.

Pure Evil.
