I hope WHEN it gets overriden that every anti-gun douchenozzle in the state simultaneously combusts.

Can't we all just get along? The way I view it is like this, TFA,NRA,GOA,TGO, and every other three letter organization out there do their part. If it gets people to make calls, send e-mails, and get involved it's a good cause. I don't understand why certain people just have to go pissing on shoes. BS macho bravado or little winky syndrome is what comes to mind.

DELAY DELAY DELAY DELAY DELAY! Guess who I am? Hex, good lord buddy relax man.

That is a VERY good idea. I told Kelsey I'd buy him a beer

I don't get it...

Great e-mail Nikki. I wish you best and Bredesen the worst.

Oh excuse me. I guess e-mailing and calling both Brian Kelsey and Paul Stanley everytime a bill has come up and talking to them about the veto override is nothing. I suppose educating people and telling people to contact their reps and senators at my place of employment (which happens to be in the firearms industry) is nothing. Maybe YOU shouldn't jump to conclusions. There are about 5 people here freaking out thinking this won't happen because it didn't go exactly like you wished it should have. The house voted overwhelmingly in favor of this bill. The Senate voted for it and pushed for it WITHOUT restrictions. I'm confident it will pass, so are MANY others. I apoligze for leaving my comment in your thread. I was under the impression that a person starting a thread might want others to post in it. So tell me, what have YOU done to help this bill out besides bitch?

LOL Oh man things you wish you'd thought of at the time ROFL

It'll pass. Everybody relax.

E-mailed Kelsey and Stanley.

It'll pass. Might lose a few votes in the house, but it'll pass. I'm not even sweating the Senate. In other news related.... Memphis to push back against two state gun bills : Local News : Memphis Commercial Appeal

I am. F--- Bredesen.

I knew it! Tell me about it.

Didn't ask, but I'd reckon somewhere between damn cheap and not much lol

Damn son ROFLMAO

Ok by popular demand here is the story so many may laugh, some may learn, and all may enjoy! It was a dark and stormy night and I was leaving my creative writing class... Oh wait wrong story. Well anyway the night was dark. I was in bed and received a call from our roommate. She had broken down in a bad part of town and could not get a hold of her boyfriend who was at work. The wife and I get dressed and armed and head to see if I can fix the car. She is parked on the off-ramp with her flashers going and pretty freaked out/pissed by this time. She is from the midwest so Memphis still freaks her out. After sometime with the car I deem it unfixable on site due to the radiator. It will still drive, but runs hot so we decide to take it as far as we can out of the hood and leave it until in the morning. I tell her to get anything she doesn't want stolen out of the car. Now, it gets interesting. As she is unpacking the car a shadowy figure starts approaching us from the interstate. She is slender, wearing a leopard print skirt, stiletto heels, and a see thru top with lace bra. She is also carrying a large black hard plastic case slightly bigger than the average brief case. She approaches and proceeds to tell me that her "date" had kicked her out on I-240 and could she use a phone. I told her none of us had cell phones and that I was sorry, but the gas station just down the street should have a phone. She then asks for a ride to the gas station. I tell her no due to the fact we are having vehicle issues. She does not comprehend. I assume this is from the drugs that were making her eyes dart around like she was trying to watch two flies fight and the large amount of liquor she must have consumed to smell like a vodka factory. This continues for several minutes. Finally, having had enough I told her in a firm voice that I felt she needed to leave before she caused any more problems. She then starts to cuss me. I step back and basically bark out an order for her to walk away. She takes two steps towards me, raises her suitcase thing and swings. I jump back, hand goes to gun (didn't draw or even present) and I tell her if she doesn't walk away I'm going to go get the cops. She then walks away cussing me out and calling me names. I wait a few minutes to make sure she's gone, then we leave and go park the car. I contemplate calling the cops and making a statement, but decide against it as it is 1 in the morning, I'm tired, she was wasted and because of the line of work I'm in I wasn't too worried about the cops in this jurisdiction as most of them know me anyway. So I let it be and I went home and went to bed. Now, the reason I never posted this before was I thought about quite a few things after the fact and didn't feel like being told what I already knew on here. That being if I had shot her I'd probably be in jail. I realized that as soon as I touched my gun through my shirt. I'm 6'4 175 pounds, work security, and am ex-military. She was about 105 pounds, 5'4, and swinging a little case. It's funny now, but at the time it freaked me out a bit on a few levels. Something about a crazy, Samsonite case swining, screaming hooker that unnerves you.

LOL Wasn't even close to that, but when I did tell a friend about it he said "Ah. The Grand Theft Auto refund eh?"

PARRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTYYYYYYYY!!!

That mean he's gonna vote for us to roll our sleeves up??

It may not name a single person, but there is a reason it is referred to as "The Castle Doctrine", hence coming from the phrase a man's home is his castle. My overall point was that while you may be, in the definition of the law, in the same overall view as an altercation on the street you will probably be afforded more latitude in YOUR home or dwelling. It's much easier to make a case that you were attacked by a guest or attacked when you asked someone to leave than it is to be involved in an altercation on the street and say "Yea i started fighting this guy, but he started beating my ass so I shot him in the face 3 times."

Holy crap.

That's not 4th of July...that's a Saturday lol

We usually do a cookout, little pool time, watch fireworks. Used to be a big thing when I lived in a house and a county that didn't ban amateur fireworks. Hopefully next year we will have a house and be able to do a bit more.

AAAGGGGHHHHHH!!!

While that may be true on the street in YOUR home YOU are going to be the King of what goes on. King/Castle Point being if you invited someone in and they became violent or confrontational and it went to the level of deadly force you would need to be able to relate why you used deadly force, but I doubt it would be near what you would have to relate if you engaged willingly in a fist fight on the street, decided you had enough, and blasted the guy.
