I have not lived in a large city such as Nashville in many many years so I can't speak for the police officers in Nashville. I can speak for the officers in about 5 small towns over the last 20+ years and everytime I have been stopped I have been treated with respect regardless of the race of the officer. They have always been traffic stops for some reason or another. Got stopped a month ago for seat belt violation which once the officer saw that I had my lap belt fastened he asked if I had a reason for not having the shoulder harness connected and I presented him with a letter from my doctor explaining why and he said that was a very good reason and handed the letter back to me and told me to have a nice day. I thanked him and we parted ways. I got stopped about 3 times for that over a period of a year here in town and each time the officer was very professional and each time the result was the same. I'm sure each time I got stopped they ran my tags on my Jeep before approaching my Jeep so I'm sure they knew I have an HCP but it was never brought up so I never mentioned it either. When the officer approached my Jeep I had both hands on the top section of the steering wheel in clear sight. I do wish my Jeep didn't have the after market window tinting and I have considered having it removed. That has been my experiences over the past several years. Oh yea, I do have a window sticker on the back window of my Jeep from NRA and another one that reads "Gun Safety means using both hands" I have thought about removing them but I figure, by now all of the officers in this town can recognize my Jeep by them because there is about 4 more Red Jeeps like mine here in town.

It appears he does not care about his race of he would do something to stop the killings. It also appears that President Obama didn't care about his race either because during his 8 years in office he did nothing to try and fix the problem either. It apeared that he even tried to avoid doing anything when the subject was brought to his attention many times...........JMHO

Funny thing happened this morning!!!! Out of the blue my Daughter calls me up and says, " you have a doctors appointment with Dr Myers (Cardologist) for August 31 at 11 AM. Funny how things like that just happen huh?

I agree greg but when you have a mayor telling the police comissioner where the police are allowed to work and what areas to stay away from you have basically tie the hands of the police............JMHO

Probably lived on the street and now has 3 hot's and a cot so if he was on the street I think you could say he's moving up.

Been there and done that with the needle deal when some doctor that was still practicing diagnosised me with type 2 Diabetes and for about 5 years until this last heart attack when I asked the nurse why I was not getting my insulin she said because your not diabetic so for 5 years I stabbed myself and didn't need to just because of a doctors mistake and then people wonder why I don't trust doctors. A doctor in a hospital made that diagnosis without consulting my GP of 18 years and She went ballistic my first visit to her after being released from that hospital. She had just had blood tests run 3 months earlier and I had great sugar and A1C levels. Once they start you on it they say you can't just stop the meds but the last hospital damn sure did. They also took my BP meds away because my blood pressure was reading very good without them. I test it every day here and it is still good and ever so often I do my sugar tests in the morning at my suger is also just fine. And yea Mike, I know what my Daughter would say is why I have decided to wait till I see my Cardologist about it. Would rather not have her on my case........LMAO

Well I am going to keep taking it till I get to speak with the Cardologist face to face but he better be able to convince me that there is a definate reason why I need 2 blood thinners. I get paranoid using a steak knife in the kitchen or a paring knife to peel potatoes. I was not going to do like your dad and quit taking all of them. Just the Plavix but gonna wait.

I have no doubt it will stop the bleeding. A little story about Black Pepper. It will stop radiator leaks in car radiator leaks too. Back when I was racing small outlaw round tracks we had about 10 large cans of it in the tool box and if we got a leak in a radiator we would dump a can in the radiator and it would stop the leak and it was a lot better and cheaper than the stop leak from auto part stores.

Well let me explain a little more about myself and my experience with this stuff. In 2006 I had a heart attack and they put stints in and put me on Plavix. I was on it about 3 months and cut myself and thought I was going to have to call EMT's to come and stop the bleeding. Next trip to my PC doctor I explained what had happened and she told me to quit takin it and begin a low dose aspirin regimen of 1 a day in the morning. I did as she instructed and it was barely 2018 when i had the next heart attack. Now a little bit more information about this med regimen I am on. The Cardologist ahs me taking both Plavix and a Low dose aspirin. Plavix at night and asprin in the morning. I will continue the aspirin but really think he is thinning my blood down to far and to add from 2006 through 2017 and even now I have no ringing in my ears..............JMHO

Since I had my heart attack in January and triple By-pass surgery my doctor has had me on this stuff. I have noticed even the slightest scratch and I bleed like I have cut an atrery and takes a long time to finally get the bleeding to stop. I'm going to begin taking low dose aspirin and quit taking this stuff till I have a long talk with my doctor. https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/10/10/plavix-health-risks.aspx

I have been a benefactor since I joined the site and don't regret 1 second of it. If I was a yonger man I would become a lifetime member but my lifetime is behind me so I just renew when I get the alert that it's time to renew. I live in Middle Tennessee only about 11 miles from the Kentucky state line and I have driven all the way to Springhill almost in Alabama to pick up a gun I really wanted so people driving to get something they want on TGO happens often.............JMHO

That is one thing you will never as far as I know see a racist gang. They will take in all comers as long as you follow the chain on comand your in. Gangs are not all black or all Latino, or Chinese. If your looking for that kind of life they will accept you into their gang. All gangs look at power in numbers.

Back in the early 70's I had a cousin employed by the Illinois department of corrections. At the time it operated with a segregation program until a bunch of the Jailhouse Lawyers filed enough petitions that the Supreme Court made a ruling that segregation was no longer allowed in any penal system in any state. The state of Illinois try to get around that new order from the court by converting one of the facilities into what they called the SPU Facility or proper name was Special Programming Unit. Once they got the construction completed. They hand picked a complete 3 shift crew of correctional officers to operate this unit and my cousin was one of them. They chose the Old Joliet Prison as the SPU and they began moving prisoners from all of the other prisons across the state. They were stocking the SPU with the worst of the worst from every facilty across the state. All of the biggest trouble makers would be housed in 2 special cell blocks. Each cell walk was 40 cells long and each house had 8 walks so once full there was 640 inmates housed is the facility. All of the head gang leaders from all of the gangs in Chicago. Black P Stone Nation, Black Gangsters, Black Disciples, Black Rangers, China Town Dukes, and many other gang leaders all in one facility made for a very interesting population. It was a 4 step program and as long as you didn't cause any trouble or disrespect any guards for 1 month you would move up to level 2 and so on and so on. If you went 6 months without a write up you were transfered back to one of the other facilities in the state and allowed to remain unless you screwed up and then you were brought back to level 1 and started all over again. My Cousin worked there another year and in that year he saw 2 inmates make it out of the facilty to another prison. Goes to show if they cannot maintain themselves in those conditions just imagine what they are like on the streets of Chicago.

The building it might be a lot easier than the keeping it to yourself part! So you don't think if he lives in Mt Juliet that folks in his neighborhood won't notice the two containers being delivered and depending on the concrete quanity your going to need and gravel your going to need will require cement trucks and dump trucks. I'm sure your neighbors are going to wonder what your building. You might try telling them a Fall Out Shelter for a Nuclear attack and they would come more to believing you than to tell them a storm shelter..............JMHO

I have had dealings with them several times and yep, Need too be very careful when you get ready for fried Bees. I normally wait till it's dark before I go out and soak the hive. I fill every opening I can find with a flashlight and the do the road flare routine rather then lighting it while up close and personal. I noramlly pout a small stream of gas on the ground leading away from the entrance and then throw the flare onto the top of the hive. It always lights up their world and I am far enough away to be safe. I had my carport get infested with Red Wasps about 5 years ago and all my hummingbird feeders stayed cover up in them keeping the birds away. I went and hunted all the nests one night with a flashlight after dark and couldn't believe I had 11 different nests and some of them almost dinner plate size. Made a trip to Lowes the next day and bought 5 cans of that wasp killer that shoots about 20 feet and that next night I waited till about 10PM til I was sure they were all at home and I soaked every one of the nests and took a long piece of PVC pipe and knocked them down. took them out in the drive way and set them on fire Now I keep a few cans on hand and when I see a wasp on a feeder I go hunting that night.

I don't see any problems with it. I just know that there would be a ton of hoops he would have to jump through to get it done in Gallatin and then after all the hoops they still may tell him no.

It would not fly in Gallatin for sure. It is against the law to discharge any type of firearm inside the city limits period except for indoor ranges at Gun stores.

Thats what you get for using a hand with calluses............... Just joking buddy!!!!!

Never had customers. Just Ladies so would not about all that zero numerator thing!

All I'm gonna say is I have never had any complaints!!

They probably sent out survey's and ask to have the person submit their size. Of course there would be no dishonest answers in any of the surveys. After all men don't have to exaggerate about something like that, do they????

Now thats funny right there............................

Believe me I understand why. He is a wonderful young man for sure and his desire to stand was out of nothing more than full and complete respect for his country and his military. As far as I'm concerned they need to show that video at the performance of the National Anthem at every NFL game on the big screen in every stadium and show the damn players what it means to be a real partiot...........JMHO. Evidenly they have a problem remembering what a "REAL" Patriot is!!

Thanks for the kind words and sorry about that Moped. A friend sent me that probably 15+ years ago and he has since passed away and I was going through some files and cleaning things up and ran across it. Thought folks here would enjoy reading it as much as I did.

The only problem with Homan Square is the only people they hold there are druggies. There are no violent offenders held there. The reason for that might be because the ones that are padding the Mayors pockets all have get out of jail free cards. They are holding thousands upon thousands of druggies in there and it has not even slowed down the numbers of shootings in Chicago on any given weekend. Looks to me lke they are arresting the wrong bad guys huh?
