Did you fail your background check, or did they turn you down for another reason, like your car looking shitty?


No if you read I just got approval from Office of Homeland Security for a background check. In fact I can buy a gun and not have to wait 3 days. I also can carry it concealed legally. Don't think background is an issue with me. Car wise no I don't think the would deny a 2010 5 series BMW. I haven't applied for UBER for the pure and simple fact I am not gonna stick myself in a position to be sued. Yes if some idiot in america wanted to can sue and would win. Uber is nothing more than an app. Uber Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is nothing more than a tech company. They are not a transport company and never will be. Every "partner" they have can be sued by state, city just for operating with out proper permits and business license. I have no problem with UBER other service because they are only given to properly licensed companies.


Again with the pizza thing. Yes you and I can both twist it around to fit any discussion. I was using a hypothetical situation to put it in layman's terms. Nothing more nothing less.

Your wording is horrible..You phrase it as

This means you are approved to have a check run..?

Not true my friend. I know a guy who has a CC permit and still has to wait. It goes on what the feds say when you are processed to buy gun. He had to fill out proper paperwork and send it off. Now in 6-8 months if he is approved he can show the dealer a card with a pin number on it to override that. Problem is now he can not buy a gun till this process is done. If he does it will reject his request and he will have to start over.

My forecast:

This thread wins a Droppie.

Not sure which one, but it deserves something. How can two people be proven wrong so many times and just keep coming back for more for 60+ pages? Its incredible and deserves recognition.


Yellow Cab is horrendous in Baton Rouge and Uber is going to catch on like herpes in an orgy. It is better than Yellow Cab in just about every conceivable way.

I would say to apply for Uber, but you're too dumb and too much of a dick. You'd get poor ratings and be fired in a week.

Single-handedly just proved to me that this country needs stiffer background checks for firearms. You are the NRA's worst nightmare.

agree, the only time I was ever able to find cabs, was to Riverside towing from Tigerland.
You just don't even see cabs in BR. As bad as NO and JP cabs are they at least have a presence.

This singlehandedly scared the shite out of me... When Richard gets canned from YC, he has guns to take it out on the world. FML.
