Re: Boy Scout dies of gunshot at Boy Scout Camp in San Diego
I'm sitting here trying to think of how to respond to this incident, and can't express anything but sorrow for the the young man who died. As a long-time BSA dad, and the proud father of two Eagle Scouts, I can only say that I wish the young man had chosen to stay alive and stay in the program. More...

Re: Shotgunning for girls
Cool post, thank you. My niece was on the 2003 Junior All-American team and went on to take a couple of womens national championships. I'm humbled every time I get on the skeet range with either her or her instructor (my brother). Even though it's a sport, they lived in Virginia, and her high school...

Re: CA AB 1014 "Gun Violence Restraining Order"
VentMode=ON I'm Not A Lawyer But it seems to me, as a citizen, that the CA legislators pulled a high-order bit of chicanery in getting that legislation passed. The original bill and the end result have NOTHING in common. How does this sort of crap happen? BECAUSE WE LET IT. Wake up call for all. Ven...

Re: "Assaulted Water Girl" Files 40M Lawsuit against State T
IMO, the girls did an outstanding job handling the situation. From what the article said, they got out of the immediate "danger" situation, established contact with 911, and then pulled over when they established it was a real LEO encounter. Exactly how everything I've read says to handle ...

Re: 9mm HP ammo in Dallas
I've seen that Academy has a varying stock of 9mm self-defense ammo on hand in most stores. Its usually a bit (not too much) more expensive than some places, but in line with the store.

Re: Gander Mountain Arlington
But a friend says that they will "price match" if you can show a better deal elsewhere. The pricematch policy doesn't appear to be published, though. YMMV. SIA It's here, directly from their site: http://www.gandermountain.com/customer-service/price-match-policy.shtml" onclick="...

Re: My first carry experience
Congrats on your 1st carry. Mine was recent enough that its still not 'normal' to carry, but I'm getting used to it. I noticed there was a sign at the welcome kiosk "Please check firearms prior to entering". I wonder who actually does this (maybe long guns?). JG They just want folks bringi...

Re: 2 year old dead after dog attack - shots fired
This is exactly the sort of situation which led to me getting my plastic, except I was on the receiving end of the attack. I wasn't bitten, but I was pursued by two dogs which were illegally off-leash in a city park. I managed to put my back to a wooden fence and out-bluff the dogs by yelling and ar...

Re: Are guns killing Piers Morgan ?
Guns did not kill Piers Morgan. His stand on gun rights in America killed his show. His harping and singleminded infatuation with the subject killed his show. His being a Brit harping about American rights killed his show. His suppositions that American laws should be the same as British laws is wh...
