Re: ICE Shooting -Alex Pretti-Sig P320
That is an interesting and well written article. I am surprised that he is only the second person I have seen mention contagious shooting, which is what I believe happened in this case. I think, from what I have seen in videos and read about this case, that the officer who grabbed Pretti's gun and ...

Re: Today in Trump's 2nd term as President- Maduro captured
Wow, invaded another country and captured it's political leader. Setting a dangerous precedent here.
No new precedent at all. We did the same thing in December 1989 (by weird coincidence, the capture happened on Jan 3, 1990 to be precise) when G.H.W. Bush sent troops in to Panama to capture their ...

Re: Australia today, despite gun ban 10 dead in mass shooting
I agree. Now that it has been released the father was Pakistani and the son was born in Australia, they were clearly not average. While owning multiple legal firearms would make them not quite average, the ethnicity makes it clearly different from my earlier statement. I still find it interesting ...

Re: Australia today, despite gun ban 10 dead in mass shooting
Unarmed hero disarms one of the terrorist. My understanding is he was wounded though. If only Australians had the right to keep and bear arms, he could have safely engaged and stopped the threat from his position.

Re: Texas High Court Limits Self Defense Law
In all honesty, I do not see how this is a major change to the interpretation of these sections of law.
Where it might affect us is very rare, I think. Use of deadly force is barred in certain circumstances, so it would be impossible to use the necessity defense in those same circumstances. But I ...

Re: Most Powerful Police Union Disarms ALL Americans - Emergency Release
I am glad I never joined FOP or IACP. This announcement is fear mongering or political partisanship at best, and downright lies at worst.
Nothing in the bill says anything about qualified immunity. It does make the law clear that violating the Second Amendment is a violation of a person's rights ...

Re: United Kingdom: the police state
I got mine through a drug store about 3 decades ago when I was making black powder model rockets. It used to quite common on farms. It was also rumored to being slipped to soldiers in boot camp to reduce libido. I never knew it that was true.

Re: Can the USPS get any worse?
This is at least partly based on the authority of the judge to issue junctions. As per a recent SCOTUS decision, district court judges cannot issue blanket injunctions. They can issue injunctions just for the parties who sued, either individually or as members of a class if a class action suit is ...
