    End Beard Oppression!

    There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.

    I'm about 6 months into my beard... love it. Wife loves it.

    One of the best comments on that video:

    If you have a beard and can't change a f**king tire.... cut off your F**KING beard!

    Heh, just coming up on the 6 month fall/winter growth, but alas spring is upon us. In the 70's for the next week. Almost time for the razor.

    I'm still experimenting with length. Mine gets wirey and crazy if I let it go unchecked. I have a bristled brush and beard balm to try and 'get the hairs straight' but it ends up looking like this after awhile:



    What I have now is more akin to this: The "Textured Short Beard" or "Medium Short Beard"

    Your beards are oppressing me. I've been trying to grow one my whole life and can't get more than a little peach fuzz. It's not fair, Mr Animal got to grow his own boobies and they're bigger than mine.

    Mine's short now, court battle for son, about 1-1/2", normally I like to keep it in the 4-7" range, kinda long but not long enough to get snagged in tools.

    I have had it past my nipples when I was younger..

    If yours gets wild quit putting foo-foo juice on it, let it grow and keep a good stiff bristled brush with you. The longer it gets the more manageable it'll become.

    This is truth

    Been a mild winter for me.. I think it stunted the growth. I think I only trimmed it once.
    Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

    I shaved clean at the beginning of January. The only reason is because I found my old straight razor and the only thing that comes close to being as manly as growing a beard, is straight shaving.

    I know I hadn't seen my bare chin in over a decade.

    So I got done shaving, and looked at myself in a mirror, and thought "Well, now I can say I did it".... and resolved not to do it again for at least another 10 years.
    There are no crimes against people.
    There are only crimes against the state.
    And the state will never, ever choose to hold accountable its agents, because a thing can not commit a crime against itself.

    I hate when you guys talk about beards. I find them totally repulsive, disgusting. When you eat, food gets stuck in it. When you blow your nose, snot gets stuck in it. Yucky, yucky, yucky. I would never kiss a man with a beard.

    I shaved mine off a few weeks ago. I literally felt like I was castrating myself. It was about six inches long

    My wife likes my beard but not when it gets too much. It tickles her when we kiss.

    I'll restart it for Lent next week. This time I'm going to make the guys from ZZtop jealous!

    The FAILURE of the United States Government to operate and maintain an
    Honest Money System , which frees the ordinary man from the clutches of the money manipulators, is the single largest contributing factor to the World's current Economic Crisis.

I remember one older guy with a beard who chewed tobacco, and when he came into the store, there were bits of chit hanging from his beard. I have this opinion, that guys with beards, are nasty and probably never wash their hands when they use the potty. Argggghhhhhhhhhhhhh.

    The best part about having a beard is when you go down you can save the flavor for days.

    Yeah, I guess in the military the only people they could have beards were sailors.
