Yes it's loaded with the safety on, It's quicker to press the cross safety then it is to rack the pump. Truth be told I would not be pumping it first off, it's more likely to be a call out to the darkness to make sure it isn't a family member - then followed by the pump.

Put it this way, if after calling out the bad guy comes around the corner and lunges at me, I'd rather be able to pull the trigger immediately then have to worry about pumping it.

Incidentally since you made an emoji face, all of my guns are kept loaded. That includes my CC pistol while being carried and/or while in the truck. Without being loaded it's just a paperweight!

and Trump talks of praying and evil inside a minute.
.....and walks off ignoring questions after a bunch of platitudes, oddly his empty speech is about the best we have seen from him, a problem because of all the things he didnt say, rather than what he did say.

He's best ignored; it's his standard response to any mass shooting in the US.

Don't you just love the fact that mass shootings in the US are so commonplace, we can actually have boilerplate responses for them ...

tooboocoo

That's it? No arguments, no facts, no debate - just personal insults and the up-front prejudice.

Charming.

The smell of boilerplate #whataboutism in the morning...

SultanOfSwing

Smells like money.

Trump's platitudes are remarkably empty. Now knowing who Trump is and what he stands for, the comforting and faux-cohesive teleprompter words only serve to underscore the meaninglessness of this frequent American pantomime. With Obama (and predecessors) they went through similar motions, but at least there was a sense that they genuinely felt or aspired to the words they were saying. With Trump, that's not the case. Maybe he needs to stick to the tweeting.

This prick had only two objectives (beyond all the WINNING) when he ran for office - to further his brand and to systematically dismantle everything Obama managed to achieve during his tenure.

In his own words: SAD!

I just found your comment ridiculous. I merely commented on the fact that Republicans love to unjustly blame immigrants for everything and often use them to try and distract from the real problem. I lived in Peru for years and find hispanics to be some of the best people I have known. We are all the product of immigrants unless we are native american. The problem isn't immigrants. It's racists and those who fear the countries changing demographics and the Republicans who court them.

kimilseung

When did that happen then?

dakota44

Seems to be just another troll

Technically immigrants too.

Seems Remington would have liked Obama to stay in power:
