  1. That is one gorgeous setup!!!!!
  2. Very nice. Neighbor rises to the occasion. No injuries. No shots fired. Dirt-bag arrested. Very, very, very nice!!
  3. Welcome to the forum! Welcome from Smyrna.
  4. Pepper Spray. Red Head: Tazer.
  5. Would LOVE to have Cabelas come to the Nashville area, maybe out in Murfreesboro or Hendersonville. . . . wishful thinking. They have a Cabelas in Buda, Texas just outside of Austin, and people drive from San Antonio and further to get to it. The Hampton Inn and other hotels built up near the store to serve the overnighters.
  6. It's Texas! He's entirely liable to get the votes for the taxes he called for. He's probably just verbalized the sentiments of his County. I wouldn't suggest any force try to invade Texas. It doesn't end well for the invaders.
  7. If I came home with a 20-something blond chick my wife would surprise me with a handgun . . .
  8. Sarcasm on: Not suprised. This was Shelby County. Happens all the time. Weapon was a .32. A bee-sting. Sarcasm off.
  9. Quite possibly. If carrying a weapon makes you "carry yourself" more confidently, than a lot of the badguys can sort of tell and are less likely to pick you as their victim. It's a quiet "I can kick your ass if it comes to that" walk.
  10. Ha ha . . . Buy a car alarm that's noise sensitive and a 12 volt battery to run it. Set it up on your property with the speaker aimed his way . . . when he starts firing, the alarm goes off . . . Whoop - whoop - whoop / ee-aah - ee-aah - ee-aah / beep - beep - beep / reset / step & repeat. . . . Fun to think about, not so much fun to do.
  11. It could come to that. Get a map for the sewers.
  12. All these federal agencies now know they are being watched and that people aren't in the mood for any bulls###. There are enough patriots in these agencies that have multiple lines of communications to blow the whistle if or when the funny business starts.
  13. Noted. Stay with the other thread. Titles didn't match or I wouldn't have posted.
  14. Who Does The Government Intend To Shoot? By Major General Jerry Curry, USA (Ret.) 9:40 AM 08/17/2012 The Social Security Administration (SSA) confirms that it is purchasing 174 thousand rounds of hollow point bullets to be delivered to 41 locations in major cities across the U.S. No one has yet said what the purpose of these purchases is, though we are led to believe that they will be used only in an emergency to counteract and control civil unrest. Those against whom the hollow point bullets are to be used — those causing the civil unrest — must be American citizens; since the SSA has never been used overseas to help foreign countries maintain control of their citizens. What would be the target of these 174, 000 rounds of hollow point bullets? It can’t simply be to control demonstrators or rioters. Hollow point bullets are so lethal that the Geneva Convention does not allow their use on the battle field in time of war. Hollow point bullets don’t just stop or hurt people, they penetrate the body, spread out, fragment and cause maximum damage to the body’s organs. Death often follows. Potentially each hollow nose bullet represents a dead American. If so, why would the U.S. government want the SSA to kill 174,000 of our citizens, even during a time of civil unrest? Or is the purpose to kill 174,000 of the nation’s military and replace them with Department of Homeland Security (DHS) special security forces, forces loyal to the Administration, not to the Constitution? All my life I’ve handled firearms. When a young boy growing up on my father’s farm in Pennsylvania Dad’s first rule of firearms training was, “Never point a gun at someone, in fun or otherwise, unless you intend to shoot them. If you shoot someone, shoot to kill.†I’ve never forgotten his admonition. It stayed with me through my Boy Scout training, when I enlisted in the army as a Private to fight in the Korea War, during my days as a Ranger and Paratrooper and throughout my thirty-four year military career. If this were only a one time order of ammunition, it could easily be dismissed. But there is a pattern here. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has ordered 46,000 rounds of hollow point ammunition. Notice that all of these purchases are for the lethal hollow nose bullets. These bullets are not being purchased and stored for squirrel or coyote hunting. This is serious ammunition manufactured to be used for serious purposes. In the war in Iraq, our military forces expended approximately 70 million rounds per year. In March DHS ordered 750 million rounds of hollow point ammunition. It then turned around and ordered an additional 750 million rounds of miscellaneous bullets including some that are capable of penetrating walls. This is enough ammunition to empty five rounds into the body of every living American citizen. Is this something we and the Congress should be concerned about? What’s the plan that requires so many dead Americans, even during times of civil unrest? Has Congress and the Administration vetted the plan in public. I fear that Congress won’t take these ammunition purchases seriously until they are all led from Capitol Hill in handcuffs. Why buy all this ammunition unless you plan to use it. Unknown to Congress, Does DHS plan to declare war on some country? Shouldn’t Congress hold hearings on why the Administration is stockpiling this ammunition all across the nation? How will it be used; what are the Administration’s plans? Obama is a deadly serious, persistent man. Once he focuses on an object, he pursues it to the end. What is his focus here? All of these rounds of ammunition can only be used to kill American citizens, though there is enough ammunition being ordered to kill, in addition to every American citizen, also every Iranian, Syrian or Mexican. There is simply too much of it. And this much ammunition can’t be just for training, there aren’t that many weapons and “shooters†in the U.S. to fire it. Perhaps it is to be used to arm illegal immigrants? We have enough military forces to maintain law and order in the U.S. even during times of civil unrest. We have local police, backed up by each state’s National Guard, backed up by the Department of Defense. So in addition to all these forces why does DHS need its own private army? Why do the SSA, NOAA and other government agencies need to create their own civilian security forces armed with hollow nose bullets? Were I the JCS, and if I wasn’t already fully briefed on this matter, I’d stop the purchase of hollow point bullets, ask the secretary of Defense why all this ammunition is being purchased and spread around the country? If I got answers like the ones Congress got during the investigation of Operation Fast and Furious – I’d start tracking all ammunition deliveries nationwide to find out what organizations and units are using them, for what purpose and, if it is not constitutional, prepare to counteract whatever it is that they are doing. This is a deadly serious business. I hope I’m wrong, but something smells rotten. And If the Congress isn’t going to do its duty and investigate this matter fully, the military will have to protect the Constitution, the nation, and our citizens.

  15. A coherent, repeatable, understandable message. Flood the Zone, starting with purchased media, especially ads on television. Fully utilize alternative media, especially Talk Radio, Direct Mail, Billboards, and the New Media, to include e-mail, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and such. Online Forums such as TGO count. Oh, and Word of Mouth, with personal, door-to-door contact and public gatherings. It's not easy or cheap, but it can be done.
  16. We read about this. Very sorry for your loss. After a suitable time for your department to mourn your loss, you may be able to request a no-cost-to-the-department K9 officer from the Air Force's Military Working Dog school at Lackland Air Force Base. Law Enforcement Agencies get priority over civilians for Military Working Dogs. There are often dogs available to departments that have either retired from military service and have many good years of police work in them yet, or a young dog that is otherwise qualified but not suitable for military work. http://www.37trw.af.mil/shared/media/document/AFD-120718-079.pdf http://www.jbsa.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123279665

  19. Eagle Scout Manual??!! Why didn't you say so! Prob'ly the single most valuable document on the site.
  20. Armed Home invader shot in face . . . It might be obvious to all concerned, but another name for this is "head shot." Good. It might give pause to other low-lifes contemplating a life of criminal home invasion.
  21. This is laughable on its face. For the 2008 election, the Barack Hussein Obama team took all the filters off their campaign website cash collection machine, and donations were pouring in from everywhere from Albania to Zimbabwe. Oh, and China. Don't forget China. If we're going to go leveling dirty money accusations, Obama the Communist has them all beat. If he weren't such a detestable individual lump of excrement, you could almost admire him for his daring.
  22. Video cameras and motion-sensing floodlights, and what others have written before. Also, get on the Sheriff's list for officer's drive-bys. Have you mentioned this threat to the neighbors? Perhaps they are being cased as well, then you have mutual defense and warning. When we faced this type of trouble, we got my wife a 12-guage and she took it to the range. She selected it and it is hers. She's little, so she doesn't shoot it from the shoulder, she shoots it from her waist, but for short distances she's accurate and lethal. And her confidence went waaaaay up. She fires it with a look of grim determination that scares ME. If you are out of position, I imagine your FiL, trusted friend or professional could administer the training.
