Who Are You?

Well let's see, I'm 14 years old I spend most of my free time playing computer games, mostly first person shooters and flight sims (not that you care).

My other interests are guns, knives, and aircraft. Musically I like ska, punk, and piano jazz Fats Waller to be precise.

Favorite Aircraft: A tie between the spitfire Mk XVIII and the P-47D.
Favorite Handgun: Tough call but I'd have to go with the SIG P226.
Favorite SMG: Easily the MP5N.
Favorite Assault Rifle: Either G3KA4 or the M4.
Favorite Knife: Well since the only "real" knife I've ever owned is an 18" AK that'd have to be it.
Of course it should be noted that the only one of my favorites that I have actually used is the AK.
Well I guess that's about it.

2.
3.
4.
 
Pennsylvania here. My dad sailed submarines for 10 years, so the Navy idea works for me.
 
Avast there ye land lubbers! My home port is Lancashire in England.
(Boring history/mythology part...) Lancashire is supposed to have been derived from 'Lancelot's Shire'. He is said to have defeated a giant here, around Manchester, and won his kingdom here. For 'giant', read metaphor... My contemparies think the giant was a Roman military unit...
Make of that what you will.

Being an ex submariner (SS 352) I'd opt for Navy of Nepal. I'd love to go to sea again.

Im a 32 yr. old cop from PA. Married to the best woman on the face of the earth. (and the only one who will put up with my BS!) I spent the 1st 4 yrs of my career in the ghetto of a large city and have since moved to a medium sized suburban dept. and out of the city to enjoy the good life and start a family. I am a hard core Constitutionalist and no longer consider myself as a law enforcement officer but rather a Peace Officer. My political views are politically incorrect and I am something of a militant radical. Just like the Founding Fathers.
I love shooting (particularly long range precision shooting), hunting and knives. Motorcycles rate pretty highly in there also.
Don't know how I got started with khukuris but once I did that was it. I'm addicted!
I want nothing more out of life than to be left alone by the gvt. and to live my life as a free man. I pray for peace but am prepared to do whatever is necessary to ensure that my children and grandchildren are able live free. The road that we are travelling on as a nation does not currently terminate in freedom.
My father was a Naval pilot who was KIA in the RVN so the Navy of Nepal sits ok with me too.
Christian, I encourage you do do some historical research. I think that you will find that the liberals have done more to harm and oppress the minorities of this nation than any other group you could name. Gun control laws have historically been used to keep guns out of the hands of minorities. (especially blacks) You can't think that the creation of the welfare state has been good for minorities. Do yourself a favor. Clear your mind of all the rhetoric and propaganda that has been dumped on you and sit down and REALLY READ the Constitution and the Declaration of Independance. You may be surprised at what you find.
 
Jaegar,

Actually I am quite familiar with the Constitution and I would also identify as a Constitutionalist. I also am not a fan of the welfare state, as I think that it may help immediately, but be detrimental in the long run. The problem that I have though is that Liberals seem to sympathize with minorities more. I mean here I am getting myself educated, minding my own business and not bothering anyone, when I get hassled because of some stupid racial profiling. Why? And it may surprise you to hear that I am Asian, and can be described as a member of the "model minority" as I graduated from UCLA and plan on going to law school in a couple of years. So if I get hassled even though I am a "model minority," I shudder to think what kind of harassment other young minority males suffer.

Christian, it was not my intent to disparage your knowledge or your opinions. I love our country and that which it stands for. Whether you are white, black, yellow, green, red, whatever, should make no difference. While the liberals like to tell minorities what they want to hear their words are hollow. To be honest with you I am not a big fan of the Republicans either but they are the lesser of 2 evils. If Allen Keyes had a chance at winning I would vote for him in a heartbeat!
We are all friends here and I did not intend to get on my soap box. I am so used to trying to discuss these issues with people and only being met by vacant stares that I am easily riled up.
 
I was raised in Tennesse where my parents still live on the farm where I grew up, but I am now living in Alabama where we lived when I was a kid before we moved to the farm. I ought to be qualified to have dual citizenship.

Jaeger, I know what you are talking about when you say that you are a Peace Officer, not a Law Enforcement Officer. The two are worlds apart. I applaud you for going against what's popular, and for using your power and authority to defend our rights instead of using them to trample our rights. You have my sincere thanks, and all else I can say is that I wish the officers and deputies around here had your attitude rather than their "us (police) against them (population at large)" mentality.

Peace Officer Vs Law Enforcement Officer

I DO NOT CHOOSE TO BE A COMMON MAN

"It is my right to be uncommon...if I can; I seek opportunity...not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stole calm of utopia. I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat. It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid; to think and act for myself; enjoy the benefits of my creations and to face the world boldly and say,
This I have done, and this is what it means to be an American."

--Dean Alfrange
 
What a thread- count me in. I'd like to do a tour in the Navy of Nepal :-)

I am 31 years old and live near Atlanta. I am married to a wonderful Indian woman and I have a daughter approaching the one-year-old mark.

I am a "lifer" martial artist and love the outdoors. When I was a child, my parents used to occasionally take me to a knife store in Gatlinburg, TN, where I would look with amazement at the swords on the wall. I have had a fascination with them ever since.
I have tried some other hobbies lately and still come up wanting to do the same thing- just go train in the backyard for a while.

I am probably a little eccentric. I don't watch T.V. I do like to read and play with my daughter. I try to pray with everystep I take. I am a very peaceful man, but I have a temperment much like Uncle Bill when loved ones are threatened/hurt. I have no regrets in sharing the same sentiments for Chokpa's aggressor.

I love children, and I have a strong desire to pass on old culture to them in a good way-like the Cherokee traditions.

Speaking of bows- I have a 73# Longbow, made by Dan Quillian that I shoot when I have time. Only traditional archery for me. I use a HI WWII khukuri and a Glock 9mm.
