STUPID no better way to say it

This has to be the most STUPID thing I have ever read in my life. I figured it to be the Onion, but nope, this is a real story. :banghead: https://m.theepochtimes.com/activist-claims-woman-who-shot-armed-robber-dead-should-have-let-him-rob-her_2767385.html A liberal activist said that a woman who de...

Re: Aliengear holsters.

I was in your boat back in August, new LTC holder, and I went with AG 4.0 shapeshifter. Glad I did. I see people make comments about this and that, and in the end, it was what felt good to me. I like their IWB and OWB options the best. Appendix style don't care for it, and the paddle sticks out too ...

Re: Online Backup Service ?

I use Backblaze.
It's a yearly fee, it's unlimited, and it does it on schedule.
I do photography, and a hard drive is not reliable.

Re: One more time (defense against animals)

Yes, the Frisco issue is insane. 5 attacks and NO ONE has thought to run with some type of defense weapon on them. This also tells me if they can't defend themselves from a crazy coyote, then they sure can't defend themselves from a would-be robber.

Re: IL:Security Guard holding bar shooter on ground shot and killed by police by accident

To me, being a black man with an LTC this is a scary thing I do think about and fear happening if I am in need to protect my person. But I am sure the responding LEO had a 911 call from someone there about what was going on, and who to look out for. But this isn't the 1st time the PD have come on th...

Re: Pittsburgh synagogue shooting

This is going to be a hate crime shooting. Racially motivated with him yelling All Jews must die.
Horrible crime and just flat out stupidity on this clown.
May these families find peace in this tragic event.

Versacarry - My take

So, a friend told me about the Versacarry brand, and of course, I have holster fever like many, so I got one. I do like to ready about things, like most, and seen some good + bad things said about the holster company. I need simple, not too expensive, and would feel good while carrying. So, I end up...

Re: Shooting In Abilene

Just seen this insane video.
They clearly had the intent to shoot in my mind. The wife said he shot by her head while she was pleading not to shoot.
Far as court, they might as well get ready to check out. They murdered that guy. Period.
