16 Open Carriers vs Several Police Officers!
BrasilNuts replied to a topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Most people carry a "video camera" with them every day, as a matter of fact I'm surfing the WWW on mine right now. I'm not 100% certain that this group went out looking for an incident. If it's not against the law to not show ID then I don't see what the problem is when a citizen refuses to show it. In this situation how does it make the LEOs job easier if you were to show them your ID? If we all really want to make their job easier we should just do whatever they say when they say it? "Mind if I search your car?" "Mind if we come in your house?" "Papers please...... your papers do not appear to be in order." -
Arabic mandatory at New York City public school
BrasilNuts replied to mcurrier's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Yeah, it mostly depends on the economic strength of the countries that speak the language. -

Just because a language has a lot of native speakers doesn't mean it is or will become a world language. -
Arabic mandatory at New York City public school
BrasilNuts replied to mcurrier's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
"Mohamed Mamdouh, who teaches the pilot program, said, “Soon, Arabic will be a global language like French and Spanish." Not in his lifetime. Edit: I'm sure there are more Arabic speaking children learning English as a foreign language than there are English speakers learning Arabic. Besides in 10 years 99.99% of these kids aren't going to remember more than a word or five... maybe a phrase or counting to 20. -
When I click on the link it just takes me to a general Oak Ridger page.

Arabic mandatory at New York City public school
BrasilNuts replied to mcurrier's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I am assuming that they are already being taught English, but i know what you meant. So, if you couple English with one of the Romance languages these kids will have a good base for communicating with people around the world. Also, once you learn one Romance language each one you learn after that is easier. -
Arabic mandatory at New York City public school
BrasilNuts replied to mcurrier's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
The students would be better served learning a Romance language. "The Arabic requirement becomes mandatory in September. But PS 368 is a so-called “choice’’ school and no kids, even those living nearby, are forced to attend it. If the school ever enrolls a student who objects to learning Arabic, administrators will deal with that on a case-by-case basis, Jackson said." As long as their parents don't have a problem with it and it's not forced on anyone, I think it's great that any child might have an interest in any foreign language. As Vontar stated before, "The only way a person will Learn a foreign language is if they want too." I took German and Spanish in High School and College, but I didn't "learn" either of those languages. I did learn Portuguese later because I wanted to. -
New to Tennessee, what do I need to know?
BrasilNuts replied to williamsburg's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
No School No College Campus No Federal Building No Court Room You can have a gun on school property as long as it stays in your vehicle and you don't touch it while you are there. -
My personal favorite. "You blame rich Republicans for destroying the economy, but think a multibillionaire ex-Nazi collaborator with a history of actually crashing actual economies is just a good ally."

Sounds fun as usual... I'll be there.

The title of this thread says it all.

A change of ownership would be a huge plus for CCA.

My wife and I watched this video last night and both thought it looked like it would be a blast. I woke up at 0230 with the sheets drenched in sweat because I had a dream I was being chased by zombies (I never have zombie dreams) and didn't have a gun!

WATE Knoxville News Segment on CCW Tonight
BrasilNuts replied to East_TN_Patriot's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
That guy in the orange shirt needs to be reminded of the rules of firearm safety. Just in that short clip he had his hand in front of the muzzle twice and was pointing his pistol at his stomach while clearing it. -
If that's you in your avatar, I don't think anyone would notice.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking... it was around 90 days for mine way back when. My wife got hers in two weeks.

OC article that everyone could take lessons from
BrasilNuts replied to 98SS1LWEE's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
Until criminals start doing AARs we'll never know how many are actually deterred by OC. "The armed robber (who has his gun concealed) will just shoot you in the back of the head before moving on to take the cash. Or he might do worse…what if he takes your child hostage and orders you to give up your gun? Most people don’t think about that possibility." Is there any proof of either of theses two scenarios ever happening to an OCer? -
Couldn't have said it any better myself. Respect.

I was going to say yes, but then I started thinking and I looked at the divisions and the only ones that I see with optics are Rimfire-Optics and Rifle-Optics. For some reason I'm assuming you're not shooting a rimfire pistol. Just come down and I'm sure they'll fit you in somewhere. My name is James and I'll be wearing a black hat and a dark red t-shirt shooting a M&P 15-22.

Yeah and they got some cool guns too!
