Maybe. Honestly hadn't thought of that. I was thinking of the bullet itself. But yeah, if they find casings at the scene, might be harder to match a rimfire to a particular weapon than a center fire? What would you look at, size of the firing pin, depth of the dimple, any offset from center, etc.???
Speaking of dimpled primers... A couple of weeks ago I was at the range and noticed an unfired 45 ACP round. I picked it up just out of curiosity. In looking at it I noticed the primer was dimpled. Yikes! A mis-fire! I put it down quickly. Anyone know the chances of one of those deciding to go off minutes or hours after someone has cleared it out of their weapon? I just didn't want to lose a finger... That'll teach me to pick up unfired rounds at the range.
Are we suppossed to be supportive of Mrs. Romney, but not her husband?
Matters not that she is one of them - she's married to the wrong side and she's as expendable as a Clarence Thomas. I believe the attention is just another divide/divert/conquer ruse. The more directions they can make for conservatives to "deploy" the more dilute the conservative message and the more intact the Left's agenda.
The left will attack any Republican candidate, and they will attack the spouse of any Republican candidate. If Mrs. Romney had a high-powered job, they would attack her as a corporatist monster and ask why she insisted on working when Mitt was already earning plenty to support them. If their sons were in the military, they’d be attacked as a dynasty of warmongers.
The author is exactly right: leftists go after anyone who isn’t as angry and miserable as they are, and they can never be happy, because they want what can never exists, the theoretical Marxist paradise of perfect Communism.
For many years whenever there was some issue that impacted women, the various female scribes (who were virtually all arch-feminists) would track down Gloria Steinem or some other wacko leftist to get their response. These wackos supposedly represented the thoughts of the average woman. This lie was foisted on the public for decades. Today these same wacko radical feminists can't abide the knowledge that most women aren't nearly as radical as they are.
Homeschooled kids are not controlled by union-led, Leftist-indoctrinated teachers who stress the importance of polar bears and free condoms in middle schools, while ignoring the Constitution and U.S. history. Such kids pose a threat to the Leftist dream of a socialist utopia.
A lady a few doors from us homeschooled her daughter until the girl was high school aged. The daughter is by far the smartest on in her grade and actually know real math. Most kids in HS depend on a calculator, whereas she does most addition and subtraction in her head.
That is what I was taught too. I had problems with algebra because I could not write down the steps on paper, but always had the correct answers.
The left really hates all those lovley white women republicans. They worship the idiots like mochelle.
You are correct, Yoda. I am pointing out WHY she was so shocked by this attack, the left has had this attitude for a very long time.
Mr. Ann Romney was first in line to have his operatives try to destroy Sarah Palin. Somehow, I don’t remember the Mrs. speaking up or stopping at any point.
*stopping it*
They dislike her because her husband has a chance to replace in office the man on whom they have pinned all their hopes for the Brave New World they've worked hard for these last 40 years.
Sure Romney isn't a conservative, but he represents the Republican Party, and if folks go to the polls to vote for him, they'll also be there voting for Republicans in Congress, and the Democrats cannot abide that! They also don't want any Republican appointing new Supreme Court Justices, because they want a full on attack against the Constitution, and to do that, they'll need Justices intent on continuing to subvert it, every chance they get.
