3 years of collegiate spanish plus all of high school. worthless...they should spend half the time actually teaching us how to speak correctly and how to decipher a conversation instead of spending a billion hours on the conjugation forms between past particle vs past subjunctive, etc.
I know immersion is the best way, and that some people that were studying were spanish majors, but the only conjugations i have ever tried attempting is future, past, and subjunctive but then again my prononcation is horrendous so it doesnt really matter if the word has an: a, e, or an o at the end. It sounds them same to them.
im sure no one really cared about that rant, but i hate that i wasted a shit load of time on grammar when its never going help me out, while a little bit of instruction on conversation would have be enormous.
On a .45 1911 Configuration, thats the safety lock position. If the hammer were not cocked you could not engage the safety. So if you were chambered and resting on the firing pin it could easily jar the hammer and discharge the round.
The safety lock is on the other side, you cant see it, but she knows what shes doing.
just fyi.
Dude......Seriously?!?!
Jamaica consistently has had one of the worst murder rates per capita, in the world. I mean, we know that you love Jamaica and all. But would you have us believe that all of those murders were committed with sticks and stones?
Those drug posses carry machetes right?
a lot of people get killed with machetes and knives in Jamaica.......
Kingston is a large part of the statistics there and it's far removed from the tourist areas
if you get caught with a pistol in Jamaica......
you go away to prison for a long time.....no questions asked
and getting a permit there is just about impossible.......
Murder Rates........
Venezuela (65 per 100,000), El Salvador (55.3 per 100,000), and Honduras (49.9 per 100,000) and Jamaica (47.1 per 100,000)
- Colombia: 37 murders per 100,000
- Belize: 30.8 murders per 100,000
- Trinidad and Tobago: 30.38 murders per 100,000
- Mexico: 29 murders per 100,000
- Dominican Republic: 28.56 murders per 100,000
- Puerto Rico (a Commonwealth of the United States): 18.8 per 100,000
- Ecuador: 18.33 per 100,000
- Haiti: 11.5 per 100,000
- Panama: 11.3 per 100,000
- Suriname: 10.30 per 100,000
- Costa Rica: 7.68 per 100,000
- Barbados: 7.49 per 100,000
I was kind of surprised that Haiti's rate was so low....guess they can't afford bullets there

Umm...no. You need firearms to accomplish the murder rates that Jamaica regularly boasts.
Statistically, you're not even close to the truth with this statement. According to the National Security Minister, gun violence accounted for 76% of murders, and 64% of robberies in 2010. And 2011 is on track to be even worse.
I guess that gun owners in Jamaica rarely bother with that "permit" nonsense.
