  1. This is also a good read, and holds that in some cases the school may restrict speech. And in fact, mentions your case as well. https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=17128657354823960354&q=Morse+v.+Frederick,+2007&hl=en&as_sdt=6,43&as_vis=1
  2. I had touted their stance when that Mom group tried to get them to change their gun carry policy so this move kinda surprised me. But now I see there was a change at the top: http://www.supermarketnews.com/executive-changes/kroger-makes-additional-changes-top So soon we will see no-gun signs pop up I bet.
  3. Welcome to the neighborhood, this really is a nice place. Don't take the "change" comments personally, it probably doesn't apply to you. Many do move and try and change things to what they left, strange but true. I find that if you move to a place you like, leave it alone and all will be well.
  4. My debit card kept getting unauthorized charges, my bank would catch it, cancel my card then send me a new one. Mostly it's inconvenient, I've not lost a cent but now I use a credit card and haven't had an issue yet, but I keep an eye out just in case. My info has been stolen a few times so I have credit monitoring, but that hasn't stopped the debit card stuff.
  5. I would think that during an incident, the last thing LEO or management would want to do is cause trouble for a CCW permit holder, specially one that helped.
  6. Not me, again we see mass punishment for those who wouldn't even think of breaking the law. You think this will stop those that want to establish a hunting sounder? No, they'll just be out hunting while the rest of us are stuck paying to hunt them elsewhere.
  7. Most NATO brass is thicker, so less capacity. Many of the NATO rounds are around 2 MOA rounds unless you get the Match rounds.
  8. I work on base so unfortunately I can't carry most days since I am subject to search when I come through the gate. The thing is most of the buildings have lock boxes for our cell phones because they're forbidden inside, I wish they would install some so we could put our guns in so we would not be unarmed to and from work. When I'm off, I carry, at home, I have a gun close enough to get to in a hurry, I don't know where that puts me, percentage wise but it is what it is.
  9. Probably related to his pardoning all the drug related convicts. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/01/19/obama-grants-330-more-commutations-bringing-total-record-1715/96791186/
  10. Congrats, it's great to hear real people actually win these things
  11. She has no concept of irony does she? I guess they were going to cover Greek during that 17 minute walk-out. μολὼν λαβέ molṑn labé
  12. Welcome to TN, if it is fishing and hunting you want, you have come to the right place.
  13. Yes, good to see this, Fudds finally paying attention because they are targeting them. We need more gun owners to stand up against all unjust gun laws, not just the ones that affect them personally. I'm just as guilty of it sometimes, like today, I should have went to that dang rally, even if it was that far away..kinda ashamed of myself right about now.
  14. That's what they said when they passed the NFA, where was their compromise? All this talk of discussion fails to point out is that they will only be satisfied with us giving in. Sorry, but not just no, but hell no . When they get serious about addressing the real issues, then I'll listen. Without meaning to be so callous; a relative few kids get killed, by one of their own mind you, and it's us they want to disarm, the very people who would of risked their very lives to stop him?? If gun violence is such a big issue, why are they not sending in the National Guard into places like Chicago? Why are they not (yet) targeting pistols? Why are they not going straight after the highest percentage of people that are commiting violent crimes? Why, because that is not in their agenda, they want control, and the only ones they can control with laws are those that are law abiding. No law, ever, stopped a violent criminal, none. So, let me know when they are ready for a meaningful discussion.
  15. Why, he's dove hunting of course.
  16. Not the way I read it; the monetary portion is to have states report those that are ineligible to the NICS system, not add new classes of prohibited persons, that is still a possibility but not until HIPPA and FERPA, ERPO get modified (a whole other fight). If those that were supposed to do something would have, many of these events would not of happened, the LEOs could have arrested that kid for multiple felonies but didn't.
  17. The only issues I see are the raising the age limit, which I'd support if it all when to 21, not just guns, the Restraining Order area, that must include a much stronger Legal involvement, Background Check, same much more legal involvement. When someone takes out an Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO), there must be a way to have the accused be able to defend against it. Too much leeway for someone with a grudge to file for one. And it should not be permanent loss unless the court deems it so, many who have guns confiscated never get them back, the owner should be given a chance to sell them if he loses his rights to have them, not LEO. Background Checks, I would like for the court (due process) to be involved when someone is placed on the "do not buy" list. Again too much risk of losing your rights arbitrarily from a simple paperwork/judgement error. There must always be a way to correct errors, quickly and as inexpensively as possible. You should not have to pay to correct an error, the people that made the error should have to pay.
  18. Same area where all that vandalism happened?
  19. I don't know, this past election showed many remembered. The center/right has started to become more aware of what the vote means and I think they will not forget as easily as all that. Sometimes you have to vote for the lesser evil, but that is why Primaries are where you need to fight the fight.
  20. I would go 3rd party if he won the Primary, but I would definitely work to make sure he didn't get the Primary.
  21. I believe he wants to go to DC, so getting a low NRA rating may go against him. I know if I was a Florida Gun Owner I would not send him to DC to do more damage.
  22. How would you NFA guys like to pay $500 instead of the $200 tax, that's what, a 150% increase? First this, then they'll stop allowing Trusts to force tranfers... While agree this will most likely never fly, it's best to fight tooth and nail just in case, because the .gov will never drop these taxes. Mr. Davis, Danny K. D-IL, for himself, Mr. Pascrell D-NJ, Mr. Johnson D-GA, Ms. Kelly D-IL, Mr. Langevin D-RI, Mr. Blumenauer D-OR, Ms. Bass D-CA, Ms.Norton D-DC, Mr. Cohen D-TN, and Mr. Lynch D-MA introduced the bill. §5811. Transfer tax (as of now) (a) Rate There shall be levied, collected, and paid on firearms transferred a tax at the rate of $200 for each firearm transferred, except, the transfer tax on any firearm classified as any other weapon under section 5845(e) shall be at the rate of $5 for each such firearm transferred. Proposed Changes: (1) IN GENERAL.—Subsection (a) of section 5811 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is amended— (A) by striking “$200” and inserting “$500”; and (B) by striking “$5” and inserting “$100”.
  23. Now that is one effective looking hog hunting setup. I wonder if you can have one out here, with 16" barrels and semi-auto of course.
  24. Looks like the walkout is in the morning, then the rally in the evening. So a walkout breaking the rules, to protest other students breaking the law, all the while blaming the guns, and gun owners??
