    Cyber security bill has magazine ban amendment (S.A. 2575)

    I'm not sure where most of the site falls in the spectrum of things, but this sort of sneaky legislation is down right bull@*it...:mad: Call your senators and tell them to oppose SA 2575. The usual senate co-sponsors are the typical anti-gun fuc@#ards...but it sure is ballsy of them to try...

    Got my new 29er, first ride impressions
