Re: Billie Joe Shaver NOT GUILTY in shooting outside bar

This is exactly why I do NOT endorse an outright revocation of the 51% law. I think you should be able to carry in a bar IF you're not drinking. But if you're going to drink, leave the gun at home or in the car. I would support that. Get rid of the 51% rule but keep the intoxication rule. Even bett...

Has Stevens ever made a pro gun ruling during his time as a Supreme? The biggest downside is whoever BamBam picks is going to be a Supreme for a long time. That's a bigger potential threat to our life, liberty and property.

Re: Two men came at me in the Parking Lot Tonite!

A simple "no thanks" with confident body language works for me most of the time. When it doesn't, it's followed by an assertive "NO!" which works the rest of the time so far. The friendly strangers might think I'm rude but I don't need to make new friends in a dark street or park...

Re: Erosion

Other weapons are good but they do little to turn the trend around.

Re: Fenix vs Olight

Notice a lot of orders from batteryjunction.com and 4sevens.com those who've ordered from those places, satisfied with service? Does either take Pay Pal? I ordered from 4Sevens.com three times and was happy with the service. Shipped quick from GA. They take Paypal but I used plastic. When comparing...

Re: Mexican cartels cannot be defeated, drug lord says

On the whole, Mexico is a tremendous beneficiary of the drug trade. Even if some of the profits are invested overseas, the pool of remaining money flowing into Mexico creates tremendous liquidity in the Mexican economy at a time of global recession. It is difficult to trace where the drug money is g...

It finally happened

I posted a few months ago about people bypassing the security gate at my girlfriend's apartments. I got various responses to my concerns. Well, yesterday two of those people shot a police officer who lives at the apartments. I don't have all the details but here's the short version of what I heard f...

Re: first scare while carrying

I'm not sure what the law was before September 01, 2009 but the law that went into effect now requires a "medical exemption" and "the department approves tint exemptions on a case-by-case basis". Carrying a letter or prescription from a doctor/optometrist is no longer sufficient...
