Which is why the "No Guns" signs having the force of law needs to be abolished.

Or.... (even better) Jesus comes back. Sounds like a good day to me.

I always knew this had been going on a long time. The Bible gives an example which occurred around 600BC. 1 Samuel 13, verses 19-20 "There were no blacksmiths in the land of Israel in those days. The Philistines wouldn't allow them for fear they would make swords and spears for the Hebrews. So whenever the Israelites needed to sharpen their plowshares, picks, axes or sickles, they had to take them to a Philistine blacksmith." Verse 21 talks about the fees (or tax) assessed for sharpening these tools in order to make them functional. 1. Disarm the peasants 2. Limit the ability for peasants, through high cost fees and/or taxes, to maintain any item as personal defensive or offensive weapon 3. Make sure only those loyal to the rulers are armed .gov has been attempting to disarm us for almost 3000 years

Getting away from punishing lawbreakers and becoming a more coddle-the-felons jurisdiction has made things worse in Shelby County.

This followed me home yesterday. I think I’ll keep her.

I fell into the credit card/interest bondage when I was single. I spent a lot trying to impress the young ladies. I finally married a frugal woman who minored in math in college. She watches the bills and checkbook like a hawk. We live modestly and don't go for all the latest and greatest gizmos that lure others into debt. We bought used cars and she is a Golden Gloves champ at negotiating the drive-out price. We do give a good sum to missions and other charitable works, but have never had need of nothing except God's good grace. My advice to young men is to marry a Proverbs 31 woman and keep her for better or worse until you ride the big, black hearse.

I DEMAND CREDIT CARD DEBT FORGIVENESS!!!!!! Sleepy Joe needs to pay my cards off.....or pay me my student loan back.

Interest and late fees are a tax on people who can’t do math.

Don't get me wrong...I'm a Libertarian. I think seatbelts laws and helmet laws shouldn't exist. I think you should wear your helmet and seatbelts, I just don't believe the government has the right to mandate it. The victim is never at fault. Did the victim make it easier for the criminal to commit an illegal act? Could very well be the case, but that act is not and shouldn't be illegal. No crime is committed until the bad guy commits the crime.

Your. Car. Is. Not. A. Holster!

I should be able to lay a gun on the hood of my car in downtown Nashville for 3 weeks. The guy that takes it is the criminal. My car/truck should not be required to be locked. My house should not be required to be locked. A woman should not be required to dress a sertain way to prevent rape. The person that rapes, murders, or steals shouldn't be suffered.

Blame The Victim For The Crime

Our Founding Fathers said our right to bear arms was given to us by our Creator and .gov couldn't infringe upon them. Our .gov servants have chipped away those rights to the point where most of the country thinks we are beholden to them. One of 2 things will happen, we'll be completely disarmed in the near future or a minority of patriots will try to take back our rights by force from a majority elected .gov.

This is my Ruger P95 in 9mm. It's like new in the factory box. It comes with 2 factory 15rd magazines. The magazines still have their factory stickers on them. This pistol has had 200 rds through it. It's in great shape. I have two of them so I'm thinning the herd. These Ruger P-Series pistols are like tanks and I'm sure you've heard about their long life span. Built to last. These P-Series will eat any and all ammunition. I'm letting this one go at $300. I am in Clarksville and can travel up to 50 miles to meet a well established TGO member to buy it. Thanks for looking.

I have little sympathy for financially irresponsible people who get wrapped up in credit card debt. People who suddenly lose their jobs or have unforeseen massive medical expenses are an entirely different matter.

I second Jeff43, I have bought most of my steel from https://shootingtargets7.com They use flat rate boxes so their shipping is reasonable but the mailman don't like their boxes much. If you get on their mailing list they send out all their sales, and they have lots of them. They have nice charts to help you buy the right thickness for what you plan to shoot. Since I shoot a bit of everything on my range I color code my targets Green handle anything I own, Yellow carbines and handguns, red .22 only. If you make everything for the biggest caliber they don't ring that well on lower caliber. As long as your buying targets, I found that just buying what ever paint was cheap didn't cover well and in the long run cost more than good paint. I found https://www.rangestore.net that sells high pigment target paint in a bunch of colors. They cover fast and a can last awhile.

Those that spend irresponsibly deserve what they get. The people I was referring to are the ones who can't afford everyday things & are forced to charge these things & then can't pay off balance. They end up with huge interest charges. We use ours for gas, groceries,etc & are blessed to have the funds to pay off balance every month. BTW-Fjb for putting people in this situation.

Here's a pic of my meager Colt collection. I'm afraid that they only pic of the Python I have currently. That's it at the top. I hear ya about the S&Ws. I have a safe full of 'em and there ain't a single lock in the bunch. I only have one with any MIM parts. S&W ain't what they used to be.

Been there, done that. Once I was drowning in credit card debt. Its especially hard on young people trying to get themselves established in this world. The interest charges will eat you up. But many do it to themselves. They want what they want and they want it right now! I think all of us have had to stand in a checkout line waiting while the person in front of us tries multiple credit cards to make their purchase. Or worse are the people who buy little items such as one soft drink or fast food and pay with a credit card. That sort of thing adds up real quick. I got myself out of credit card debt some 30 years ago. Today I have one credit card and its used primarily for internet purchases. I also pay off the balance every month. For most everyday items, I pay cash. If I don't have enough cash, I just don't buy it.

It shouldn’t be this way. Preventing, or at least deterring this type thing IS a reason for having a government. Since that no longer seems to be happening, what good is a government?

I am not offering an opinion here so back off if you don’t like what I’m about to say. Since the state basically removed all restrictions on keeping firearms in vehicles, car break-ins have skyrocketed, especially Memphis because they’ll steal the stink out of #### there, but don’t you Nashville area or anywhere else folks get too smug, it’s happening everywhere and getting worse. Fact, not opinion.

I wouldn’t have made that trip to Memphis in the first place because I understand the high risk of waking up without the car. Thats the kind of risk assessment I’m talking about here. Did she cause her car to get stolen? No, but I hope she wasn’t surprised that it happened. https://wreg.com/news/investigations/driving-crime-more-than-22000-vehicle-thefts-in-memphis-in-2-years/ In Memphis, the risk of vehicle break in is so high as to be nearly a guarantee. So leaving a firearm in the car is tantamount to intentionally arming a criminal. When I lived in Midtown in Memphis, I had my car broken into 5 times in little over a two year period. If I left a firearm in my vehicle and it got stolen, any reasonable person would say that it was an entirely predictable outcome. This is honestly a very weird surprising take from a group of folks whom mostly carry guns because of the possibility of encountering someone who means them harm. I mean, I shouldn’t have to carry a gun everywhere I go, but I do because I’ve made an assessment of the risks and act accordingly. It’s kinda amusing since the odds of me having to use my gun are waaaaaaay lower than the odds of my car getting broken into in the Memphis metro. Folks can live in the world they imagine exists inside their mind, or they can live in the one outside their front door. I choose the latter.

I’ve got to disagree with you here, boss. I know a girl who went to a New Year’s Eve party in Memphis, stayed the night in a hotel there, and woke up the next morning without a car. Should she have walked from Macon County to Memphis to have prevented that?

a. You should be able to do/not do a lot of things but the bleeding hearts have allowed the ne'er do wells free reign. b. I have a lock box in my car for the offhand case of having to enter a building where firearms are not allowed. c. I try hard to avoid entering said buildings. Most I won't enter without a subpoena. d. With freedom comes responsibility.

Thats all nice and fine, but here in the real world, risk mitigation is a part of life. Failing to take reasonable measures to operate in the world in which we actually live only makes one an attractive target for the criminal element. At some point, it’s just acting as an accessory to the criminals by enabling them. Reminds me of the meme about the guy talking to his neighbor who says “the coyotes keep eating our cats.” ”Where do you get the cats?” ”The animal shelter.” ”Sounds to me like you’re just feeding the coyotes.” Then the guys kid just runs away crying

How about we simplify it-ban all politicians-

My house was missed by maybe a quarter mile - we saw some clouds rotation but not the actual funnel. No damage here, but walk a couple hundred yards north and it changes instantly. Roads out are blocked by lines and trees. I spent a couple hours with a saw helping a buddy around the corner who was in the path and will be back over there when the sun comes up. Hope everyone else made it through safely!

I much prefer the food and prices at Captain D's. Red Lobster is priced to compete with real seafood restaurants, but sadly, that isn't what it is.

Well…. I got it. I didn’t get the wood grips or moon clips that came with it new.I called S&W before I bought it to see what year it was made and if they said it came new with wood and rubber grips and moon clips in the aluminum padded hard case. Made in Dec. 2003
