  2. A lot depends on the situation of course but my first reaction would be to turn around and find a different route. I don't see the need to put myself it eminent danger voluntarily. It just seems stupid.

  3. Kinda reminds me of back when OJ got acquitted in a court of law after killing Nicole and Ronald...remember how we all took to the streets in protest, committing racial hate violence against innocent black folk to show how unjust the "system" was, that let go a person who killed people of another race?  Remember?  No, wait, NOW I remember, that didn't happen!

  4. At any given time there is at least an AR15 and 6 fully loaded mags in my car.  If I am faced with a deadly threat from a mob with no more sense than to try and take a person as heavily armed as myself, I will gladly empty every single mag.   Cheers.

  5.   It's a better option than having to shoot poor Trayvon for expressing himself :). If the popo want me to go the right way down the interstate, they need to move the obstructions.

  6. There are times when action has to be taken even without backup or additional officers. Also the use of a rifle is dictated by different reasons. If it is reported the suspect has a long gun I deploy my rifle, I don't want to match a pistol versus rifle. I wouldn't expect any reasonable person to do it so I won't. Also I don't know how many of you have actually dealt with some real thugs or gang members they have pistols pulled on them in their line of work in their rough neighborhoods so pistols don't always have the same psycological effect.

  7. The second one is from the LA riots. The police watched that as well as other assaults and murders take place on innocent people and did absolutely nothing. Proof that taking no action against violent rioters emboldens them and makes matters worse; much like a young child let to run amok in a restaurant without a parent intervening. They will push the limits. When riots happen police should be able to lethal force on all participants. Something we used to say in Iraq, "innocent people don't come running to the sound of gunfire." This meant that when the funk hit the fan, everyone not running away or pancaking themselves to the pavement is a target. Sounds harsh, but it is absolutely true. Referring specifically to these protesters here, they are breaking the law and are causing a hazard by blocking the interstate. Backups like these cause deadly accidents. Ambulances need to get to where they are going. As a citizen, I'll wait for the cops to come and enforce the law. But like I said, these clowns can turn violent in an instant if they are free to roam unchecked. When that happens you can bet everyone in those first few lines of vehicles would be a target. Think there are any young children and babies in those cars, sitting helpless and strapped into their carseats? Parents not knowing what may happen? Having no possible escape as they are blocked in? Yep, anyone comes near my car with my babies in it they will be staring down a barrel of an AK. If they decide to get violent every last person in that crowd deserves to be shot.

  8. Wearing the CCW badge also requires wearing tacticool clothing and using the teacup grip, as well as looking down the muzzle end of the barrel in the event of a hang fire.

  9. I am surprised there aren't laws against this sport! It should be illegal to have that much fun! I shot at ORSA today and I think I'm hooked! I haven't had that much fun in a long long time. I am tired but it's a good tired!

  10. Agreed, what this really boils down to is simple racial intimidation, on a national scale, we are talking KKK at the height of their power sort of stuff, apparently with President of the United State's & his Department of Justice's blessings & even support. It's clear that this has absolutely nothing to do with "justice" or "civil rights" this is a message to white folks, that they are willing & able to take to the streets over any offense, be it real or imagined.

  11. How did one side of this become “Pro Concealed Carry”? I thought this was a black racist vs. white racist issue. Is “Pro Concealed Carry” a new buzz word for white racist?

  12. John McCain is a man who went through hell as a prisoner of war because he chose to defend his country in a wildly unpopular war and we should never forget the sacrifice he and so many men AND women made; especially those who made the final sacrifice.   As a politician, John McCain is a worthless piece of crap who deserves to be ignored and retired by the voters and who is absolute proof of how utterly void of rational thought and principles the Republican party is (because if they were capable of rational thought and had any principles the party would not allow McCain to identify himself or run under the banner of the Republican party).   All that said, I'm so not surprised that he is against SYG laws that telling me that the sun will set in the West this evening will get the same level of surprise from me.

  20. The best way to handle it in my opinion is to sue the shit out of the PD/city, etc. and make these acts so damn expensive that they'll change the way they do things.   AND CONCURRENTLY...   Get enough voters in the town riled up enough that the city council (or however they make the laws for that town) outlaw these kinds of raids...there are plenty of ways to catch bad guys without busting down a door at 6AM which often puts INNOCENT'S lives at risk (assuming they ever got the right address)...sometimes I think these police departments do this kind of stuff just because they think it's cool.

  27. As a law-abiding citizen I have zero expectations of any law-enforcement agency ever serving a warrant on my residence, therefore my immediate instinctive reaction would be to protect myself, my family & my home because it couldn't possibly be law-enforcement kicking in my door, but something much more nefarious. I'm not responsible for any mistakes eithe law-enforcement or criminals make by kicking in my door, nor am I going to risk taking the chance of hesitating to ask for ID when fractions of a second literally could mean the difference between living or dying. *Knock* on my door & wait for me to answer it iffin you need to talk to me or summon me for something, *kick* in my door iffin you want to engage me in a fire-fight. It's really that simple.

  28. No worries man, in the hands of the police, those are just defensive weapons and not an assault rifle.  You're analyzing the situation wrong!

  30.   It is always preferable to have backup when performing a felony stop.  However, sometimes different circumstances require different procedures.  Maybe something led the officer to make the stop right then.  Hard to say since there are many variables.  It probably started out as a "routine" (although I hate using that word) traffic stop, and turned into a felony stop when the guy turned out to have some felony warrant for his arrest.

  38. Stopped by Smyrna Wal-Mart today for some spider spray....because the wife told me I had to. I browsed past the ammo counter to stare at empty shelves, and low and behold they had some .40 S&W. It was BrassMaxx fmj 50 round boxes for $19.99. Grabbed one box and left the rest for others. There were about 10 boxes left if any of y'all need any.

  39. The Feds under Obozo and Holder have set race relations back 50 years. I'm not implying any politician in either party is wonderful but until this asshole took office and appointed his merry bunch of losers race really wasn't in the forefront of every discussion. I hate these bastards....every one of them. Someday they will have so splainin' to do.

  41. For some people, it's not another chore that needs doing, it's a hobby and a lifestyle of choice. Therefore, it's much like a TRUE Christian. If its all for naught, then in the end, nothing is lost because the journey was enjoyable. I actually USE a lot of what some call preps. I rotate food. I actually SHOOT my ammo instead of hoarding it up. I use the oldest and replace it with fresh goods. If this is all for nothing, so what? When I die, I won't care anyway. Maybe after I'm gone, what I've put away may make the difference between life and death to a man and his wife and kids. If I don't use what I tuck away and after I'm gone, some random dude saves the life of his little girl because he happened upon my stash or stuff then my labor was WELL worth my time.
