Phoenix homeowner shoots, kills burglary suspect http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/02/09/phoenix-homeowner-shoots-kills-burglary-suspect   http://www.myfoxphoenix.com/story/21085043/2013/02/08/shooting

Righto, got it now, thanks!  Doesn't work on tablet.   Yeah, I didn't think that the news camera had a good angle on what happened shooting over the crowd like he had to.  I wonder who provided the still photo to the news which had a much more clear angle.   Shots were tight, made it look very crowded.   Reporter chick at the end of the report said, "...was a concealed carry permit holder, this is his first offense" in a way that, too me, sounded like she was alluding to there being many more in his, or any permit/carrier's life, as if it were a given or something.

  Thanks.  Saw that exact page on WSMV, but I guess the video would not show up on my tablet.  Works fine on desktop though.   What a tool!  Thanks a lot Reggie Robertson!  Dingus.

Probably no new information, but -     California Senate Democrats roll out big gun control package http://www.gopusa.com/news/2013/02/09/california-senate-democrats-roll-out-big-gun-control-package

That almost sounds like the illegal alien that was arrested some astronomical number of times and killed a woman (pregnant?) while driving drunk here in Nashville again for like the hundredth time.  I think that was 5-8 years ago maybe.

  LoL!  You said "Apple". ;)

  Looked, couldn't find anything.  But that's about all I thought they got if anything.  The cops had the gun at that point, so they never got a shot of him carrying it, and I'm not sure you could really see much as they took him inside, just a couple of guys walking.

  Yeah, I had to turn Rush off yesterday, he was really pissing me off!  I sent him 2 or 3 emails.  I'm listening for politics, not for him to be a damn weather man.  He just carried his sarcasm wayyyy too far.  After checking back like 20 times over 90 minutes and he was still talking about it I just switched over to DelGiorno and Huckabee.  And I can't stand it when he wastes an hour on sports.  I DO NOT CARE!  Unless he would be talking about shooting.

Another report, not sure if it contains any new info -   http://www.gopusa.com/theloft/2013/02/09/councilman-asks-man-to-turn-in-his-weapon-look-what-happens-next

Sorry guys, I don't get/watch local news (2, 4, 5), so I couldn't see the report.   Did they actually show video footage of the guy is what I'd like to know?

Oh, and ironically, they had plenty of .380 if anyone uses that anymore. Couldn't findvany 5 years ago.

Well then, I will say Thanks.

Did they have any actual footage of the guy? From where I was standing I don't think the news guy made it over there in time to get anything.

News report said, " A peaceful gun protest at Legislative Plaza was disrupted Friday because someone showed up holding a type of weapon the protesters were trying to protect." Disrupted? I don't think so. I was on the side where he first came down the steps and can say that 90% of the crowd didn't even see the guy or what happened. Whomever was speaking at the time didn't even miss a beat. Unless someone saw any video on the news, it happened so fast, I don't think the camera guy even made it over there in time to get anything.

  Not sure if you mean me... but... I'm semi-retired and am an information sponge.  I have been involved in what I call "Investigative Politics" since 2000.  I read a TON of stuff and subscribe to some very obscure newsletters and such.   I have too much time on my hands.  I should probably be out shooting or something, BUT... I love this country and those who try to destroy it or the rights of it's Citizens REALLY PISS ME OFF!   To be honest, every now and then some crap slips through, but I try to only serve up the relevant stuff.

Rep. Sarbanes: Some Gun Makers Build Sales Models on Assumption 20% 'Will Get Sold Illegally’   This guy is a nut case!   http://cnsnews.com/news/article/rep-sarbanes-some-gun-makers-build-sales-models-assumption-20-will-get-sold-illegally   "CNSNews.com repeatedly contacted Rep. Sarbanes office asking for the source of the information the congressman used in making his statement that some weapons manufacturers build sales models assuming a percentage of their weapons will be sold illegally. There has been no response."

Armed citizens force officials to back down   "A group of 160 citizens, many if not most of whom were armed, confronted government officials Tuesday who had attempted to have a wounded Army veteran kicked out of a meeting due to the fact that he carried a gun. The veteran has a state license for concealed carry, which means that he was carrying the gun to the meeting within the boundaries of the law."   Read more at: http://www.examiner.com/article/armed-citizens-force-officials-to-back-down

  I actually counted heads.  Same last time.  144 people counted at peak time (10:30am).

  N. Korea might take care of that.  Just saying.

  Just got some at OHB/Nolensville Rd.  $11.97/50   They would only let me have 3 boxes (I wanted 5).  There were about 15 -20 boxes left 30 min. ago.

Call it what you will, but an executive order by the Governor prohibiting travel is quite extreme.     http://boston.cbslocal.com/2013/02/08/patrick-declares-state-of-emergency-announces-travel-ban-in-mass/   "If you don’t have an exemption and you’re caught on the road, the penalty could be as steep as a $500 fine or, at worst, a year in jail."     I lived near Albany, NY as a kid.  We could have 3 feet of snow and STILL had to go to school.  No b.s.  These people are acting like they've never even seen snow before.  It's New England morons!  It snows.
