2. Northern Nevada needs our tax dollars


I'm calling BS.  That should read: "Nevada politicians need our tax dollars".  While I'm sure that the Nevada political economy has adjusted to  the t*t of Clark County, yanking it off would be just fine with me, and many, many rural Nevadans.  Cutting the pork at the state level is something that is long overdue, and extremely unlikely to happen.  Counties, I beleive, run their own independent budgets.

Quite honestly, those of us who were raised in rural Nevada would prefer to keep ALL Clark influence out.  Small Nevada towns do NOT see any major monetary benefits from Clark --- heck, they're hard-pressed to keep afloat as it is.  You see, many of us would prefer to NOT see urban development in rural Nevada.  

The way we see it, our "representatives" at both the State and Federal levels are deep in the pocket of Clark, and thus also are their political priorities.  It might be a hard concept for the city folk, but the care and control of the land is in many ways the heart of any state, and when 98% of the land (and the people on it) is subject to the politics of a tightly-compacted majority that possesses little or no understanding of life outside their urban construct, the will/good/desires of the smaller group are trampled on.  They are outvoted at the polls and outspent in the courtroom.

While this tyranny of the majority is the essence of democracy, it has nothing to do with the republic that America was supposed to be.  


Now, I realize that I'm preaching to the choir, but some of the comments from the LV end forced my hand a bit.  I'm really, really trying to stay away from hot issues like the Reid->Enviros->NN water->LV problem, and the like.  Morally (can you even claim that in Nevada?), the case of North v. South is clearly one-sided.  Me screaming about things to fellow shooters accomplishes little.  Besides, statistics might indicate that most Clark residents came from somewhere else fairly recently, and have no feel for Nevada social or political history.

PS - that Bagdad Bob photo should be captioned "Clark just wants to help fellow Nevadans"

Not all of us like what's going on in Clark County, but three things are for sure:
1. We are the richest county in the state
2. Northern Nevada needs our tax dollars
3. Beckett needs to realize that it's not about sex.... it's about trust. AAANNDDD....... GO!

Joe
OUT



1. Yes, Clark is the richest county in the state but it is also the most fucked up county in the state!
2. Northeren Nevada does not need your tax dollars!!
3. Yes,  MeanSteve is still a douche most of us in the north would like to send him south!!!

ive never seen that top shoe tree but me and the bottom one go way back. Every time i drive by that on the way to austin i have to stop and shoot a few strings of shoes off.  I think what pisses me off is LV complete lack of knowledge of the rest of the state. Its like they are looking down there nose at the rest of NV cause they know we are to small to do anything. Its funny when i think of NV i think of  high mountains with sagebrush over my head with no one around for 100 miles in every direction. When you ask some one from out of state or in LV they think of NV as slot machines and a scorched fucking desert. Not of all the mines, ranches, wetlands, and mountain ranges that make up 95% of NV, sure Vegas is just as mutch of NV as the rest of that but its not the only thing in NV despite what alot of people belive.

Let them think Nevada is a casino, that is just fine with me....  That way I dont have to deal with the BS of the city when I leave the city.  

Here is the bottom line.  A vast majority of the PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD, including the NEVADANS in Las Vegas are not the problem, hell I was born and raised in a smaller town than a good share of the voices on this board (telephone #'s only had 4 digits....beat that!), I have watched my hometown grow 500% in the last 15 years and it breaks my heart.  
When you throw mud, take a second to aim at the right folk cause YOU ARE ALL PREACHING TO THE CHOIR!
I remember when LV was a small town, and I am not that old.  This influx of SHIT we are trying to deal with happened overnight.  

Beckett, it is hard to take all of your death threats seriously, but I am here to say I have had the same thoughts in regards to the breed of people that are responsible for jacking up an entire state. They bitch about all SHITE they have brought on themselves and pick up and move on to virgin territory, only to bring their crappy ideas with them.  DAMN IT!

Anyway, if you feel you must, bring on your little revolution...I would be happy to join in.  Just keep in mind who the enemy is.  If the Northies insist on drawing a line in the sand regardless of values or location, then your loss.  I will still infiltrate your lines, camp in the Rubys, fish in Wildhorse, hunt in the Diamondbacks and ride an ATV where ever the hell I want...I look like a REDNECK cause I ARE ONE! (minus all the appliances in the front yard..) You will never catch me, I blend in too well.

SILESIUS!
That's the last straw! Putting up photos of my home is absolutely uncalled for! Seriously, that IS MY HOUSE!

In all honesty, I wish Southern Nevada wasn't overrun by the you know what's (you fill in the type of person, it'll fit). My Mom lives and works down there (she knows Terryreno) and I worry about her all of the time.
I agree that we are all one state, but I must refute that we are all equally free. I am legally carrying a 4" Tanto Cold Steel voyager in my pocket and a Glock 19 that is not on a Blue Card.
I don't have to smog my vehicles to license them, I can burn a real fire in a wood stove, and I don't belong to a HOMOners association that will tell me what I can and cannot do.
Now we have seen how much money each county makes, how much does each county spend? I didn't take economics cuz they don't teach that in Special Ed, but I reckon that Clark spends a hell of a lot more than other counties. I garauntee that some counties do rely on Clark's money, but they would just fall prey to natural selection otherwise. Diversify or die off.

Rather than fight our Southern Nevada bretheren, I'd prefer to join forces and drive the Kalifornicators from our far sate. The problem is, there ain't ever gonna be enough of us.

And one more thing, MeanSteve is  NOT a douche. Unlike a douche, no woman would voluntarily allow him in her vagina.

i wear a colt bird head on my hip when i ride my horse into town to collect my welfare. when  im feeling real dressy in my bibs and wife beater i might even put a bandoleer of shotgun ammo over my shoulder and take down the old double barrel. not like you city boys down south that wear shoes and underwear.

God, this thread is so fucked up.

First, my friends that I have out there in meatspace where the trees are made of beef and the rivers run thick with gravy, have turned against me (Gunmonkey and Gunsap).

Then the jerks that are on my side (Beckett et al), turn out to be insane.

My life is playing out like a page in the seminal adventure Buttlord GT.



Beckett is Snowflake, the insane madman with a snowglobe for a head. Gunsap and Gunmonkey are Brad and Takahashi, respectively. Whereas I'm the most awesome character in this whole play, Mr. Huge.

Wolfpack and E22CAPT are just the idiot protagonist characters, Glutes and Kevin, respectively.

Everybody that's taken part in this thread are insane, patently fucking batshit insane. What the hell is wrong with all of you?

See, man, it's like this. Bad Mother Fuckers are named Steve. There's Steve McQueen, Steve Simmons (WWI figher Ace of Aces), Steve Summers (fucker single-handedly flamethrowered three Jap bunkers on Guadalcanal, won a Silver Star), Steve-O from Jackass and well, myself and my namesaked Utah homeboy.

The rest of you are super-jealous though that two burly hairy men with awesome handlebar moustaches named Steve got together on a message board devoted to the Armalite Model 15 rifle and found True Love.

None of you can handle what we have together. Which is why you all simply settle with posting replies to this thread with inane animated smileys. I do believe this behavior is outlined in my first semester computer logic textbook, located cleverly enough in the Argumentative Fallacies chapter.    As a derivation of an Appeal to Authority, an argue-er who cannot back up his claims or words with a logical demand or commentary finds himself falling back on name-calling via simple iconographical means, be it flipping a bird at his opponent, or posting a retarded animated .gif of a smiley giving a different-colored smiley the old Hello Sailor Buttsexy Reaction (that's Tasmanian vernacular for 'hot beef injection').

Really folks, this has devolved into the wussiest internet flamewar of which I've ever been a party.

At least Steve-Oh has my six, unlike my real-live homeboys (you bastards)

Look Skinny Belink,

When you stop trying to start a war between Northern and Southern Nevada, I will answer your Crack Dealer Candy question.

Until then, stop acting like a Friggin' kid with an M4 on the Little Yellow School Bus.
