Re: Oklahoma CHL saves LEO's life
Unending kudos to this CHL for saving this LEO's life.

- don't command him to stop
- don't threaten to shoot
SHOOT HIM. RIGHT NOW. PERIOD ...

I just noticed this article (published today) about the author of HB937, campus carry. He's going to leave the Legislature to run for Sheriff of Harris County:

Re: GLS Safariland. Paddle holster fans?

Re: Voices of the anti-cop movement
First we should comply with Michael Moore's request starting in his neighborhood by disarming the police, and busing in all the black convicts and dropping them off in his front yard. Tell them he's a millionaire that wants to support them.
