So, if he hadn't been in the car when seeing this, but rather was carrying without a permit from Point A to Point B and walked in during a robbery in progress, he would be covered for the shoot, but prosecutable under carrying without a permit, right?

  Clarksville is pretty much a tale of two cities as I remember it from my time there between 2001-2012.    There is the Clarksville that's in the shadow of Fort Campbell, and has a predominant military community, then there is the rest of Clarksville.  If they had a density map of where the incidents were taking place, I'd wager that part of town would be a bright red.  If gang activity- of any type or race- managed to take root there, I wouldn't be shocked at all.

While I'd like to see more information to test my hypothesis, I think it's simply a byproduct of our societies pussification leading to more guns equaling more problems.     If, as I think, there is a large number of people under 30 in these cases, imagine how many of them have never learned to handle their own problems because of how schools and society in general look at violence.  Having never gotten into any fights at school, or growing up, when things escalate, and the prospect of a real fight is in their face, fright takes over, and they're reaching for a gun if they have one.    That said, the inability of others to manage risk and handle conflicts doesn't matter to my rights under the 2nd Amendment. 

Happy Mother####er's Day.   ETA: Motherfocker's Day in case anybody misses the intent blocked by our PG friendly coding.

Here I was thinking I was all high-speed for having a piece of 550' cord clove hitched onto a keyring and a micro lock s-biner for my car lock remote.

Once again, TGO shows how great a community we have. chances R hooked me up with what I needed. Thanks again, mate.

Part of me thinks there are insurance and liability costs factoring into this decision.       You can set it as a condition of the contract, and you better believe Uber is giving these drivers a "sign it or don't take the work" type of deal.  Unless OSHA safety concerns are involved, whoever has leverage on the contract is going to get what they want.

  Yeah, that would explain why my Google-Fu sucks balls on this topic.   The part on the approved program is pretty vague, what I really need to find is the instructional outline provided by the department.

Looking for the program of instruction from state guidelines on what has to be taught in the HCP class for a class project.  I know that each instructor has a book with this, but I'm looking for it in a .pdf or .HTML source.   Thanks.

Finally had the chance to watch it...meh.  I didn't feel it was a waste of time, but I thought it was only an okay as a movie.   The performances from Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller (a very underrated actress) were top notch.  The strain on their relationship caused by deployments and not enough time between them was well acted, though I think could have been given more time as it is a big theme as you read the book, especially the parts by Taya written from her view.   The action scenes were about what I expected, complete with the Hollywood embellishments: the huge flame with each shot from a suppressed M4, creating Mustafa as his nemesis through out the movie, the final battle in Sadr City ending in a sandstorm haze...all made the movie a letdown after reading the book.

  It'll be interesting to see if Brady Campaign sticks behind the people they propped up and continue to give them money to cover this, or silk away and leave the plaintiffs they used to get standing enough to bring a case on the hook for the money.

When you're sitting on the can, your underwear and or pants form a perfect cradle to secure your gun.  Just take your gun out of the holster, rest it in there.  No way you leave it in the bathroom.  You'll either remember to re-holster it, have it pressed against your gooch in an uncomfortable way.

  If they can wig Lena Headey and Emilia Clarke, they can wig Kit Harington.  I'll believe he's dead when they burn his body to prevent him from becoming a White Walker.

Fixed blade knives have fallen way down in favor overseas from what I saw.  My last trip over was as a contractor to eastern Afghan from Nov 2012- Nov 2013, and I can't remember more than a few.  Just not as much use for for a large fixed blade over there as there is in a woodland environment.  Even when I was a Soldier, all I ever needed in Iraq or Afghan was a pocket knife.  Having a large knife would have just been more space taken up on my kit. 

  Sure, but to say that churches in South Carolina are gun free zones is misleading.  The church has the ability to allow carry, so the decision to allow or not is on them, not the state.    Hypothetical: if the law was the same here in Tennessee, how many of you would actively seek out a church where the Pastor/Reverend/Rabbi/Priest allows carry?  How many of you would avoid a church that doesn't allow it?

Seems good for walking around, camping, and other stuff if the technology works as advertised.  For a weapon light, I want to see what it does to a person on the other end of the light.  My personal battle drills emphasize light discipline, and having the ability to shine an approximate assload of lumen's in a split second to disorientate my target is something I want to keep for home defense. 

  The law in SC has an exception for carry with the express permission of the church.   South Carolina Code of Laws Title 23 - Law Enforcement and Public Safety ARTICLE 4 Concealed Weapon Permits SECTION 23-31-215. Issuance of permits. (M) A permit issued pursuant to this section does not authorize a permit holder to carry a concealable weapon into a: (8) church or other established religious sanctuary unless express permission is given by the appropriate church official or governing body; http://www.scstateho...ode/t23c031.php

Actually, you can carry in a church in South Carolina, if you have the express permission of the church.     South Carolina Code of Laws Title 23 - Law Enforcement and Public Safety ARTICLE 4 Concealed Weapon Permits SECTION 23-31-215. Issuance of permits. (M) A permit issued pursuant to this section does not authorize a permit holder to carry a concealable weapon into a: (8) church or other established religious sanctuary unless express permission is given by the appropriate church official or governing body; http://www.scstatehouse.gov/code/t23c031.php  

  Sensitivity and politics...that's a good one.    Trying to take advantage of emotional highs and lows is how you get laws passed in short order.  How long is a respectful period to give before talking about it?  For those of us that don't want the question to come ever, that's a loaded question.       He could have just be a bad shot, or even putting multiple rounds in each victim.  Easy enough to see someone filled with such hatred doing either, or both, so each victim should account for more than one round.  If it was a .45 handgun, that would limit magazine capacity, so missed shots would necessitate a reload.

  What are the pouches for the mags you are using?

I see we're at the "going out with a bang" phase.

Another site I'm a member of has a sub-forum titled "How Not To Post."  As you can guess, they Admin's/Moderator's take the true gems that come across from time to time and after closing them for overall stupidity move them there for posterity.    This thread would be a great way to start one here on TGO.  :P

  Perhaps read the full text of the rule.   Maintain a good fellowship with others. Members should treat each other as they would like to be treated themselves. Name calling, flame posts, racial slurs, and other insulting remarks meant to cause conflict will not be tolerated. You should always try to maintain good fellowship with the other members of this community and be respectful to your fellow shooting enthusiasts whether they are new shooters or seasoned veterans. Debate is welcome and encouraged, but you must always stick to attacking the issues rather than the person or profession. Personal attacks, and name calling, serve no purpose in the exchange and debate of good information. Keep in mind that in life there is no guarantee that others will agree with your thoughts or comments. You absolutely must try to handle disagreements, criticisms or opposing viewpoints with tact and maturity.       David let the Jade Helm thread go on a lot longer than I would have in his shoes.  I'm ex-military and I wasn't offended, just flabbergasted that the whole thing has taken root.    I get that there is health in debate on things, but you weren't debating.  As I saw it you were just tossing out random links with no independent research or additional commentary provided.  Not to mention the day that thread became a bunch of random music via YouTube videos I would have closed it down for irrelevancy.

Some more back-in-the-good-ole-days'itis.  I've had good doctors, and some not so good ones.  Just like any service provided, conduct due diligence and be ready to move on if you aren't getting what you need. 

  That's just Darwin's consequence, I meant administrative.  Suffering one shouldn't get you off the hook for the other.
