MPD Officer killed - Mayor instantly attacked 2A

I'd recommend doing research before just joining the Oathkeepers. Make your decision wisely. -
I use a vicks ultrasonic humidifier and love it. My sinuses dry out causing nose bleeds so this helps decrease that greatly. The higher the moisture level is set the more I notice the nearby area has moisture. I would never go back to an old school humidifier after using an ultrasonic.

Haven't messed with cards since I was little but they use to make those Beckett magazines with values of cards. Is that an option for the cards alone? There was a sports card store in Goodlettsville never been in it but next time I work I'll drive by to see if it's still there and operational.

The .08 level everybody refers to is just a limit TN has passed that says you presumed intoxicated by alcohol for a DUI. This level is never mentioned for any other intoxicated related offense such as poss. of handgun under the influence or public intoxication. That .08 is just a level of intoxication but any alcohol in your system is considered under the influence of alcohol, it doesn't mention drunk. It doesn't even have to be alcohol many prescriptions are controlled substances and will put you under the influence level. Everybody here is an adult so you make your own decisions but I don't see a gray area alcohol in system = under the influence.

[quote name='Lumber_Jack' timestamp='1354997782' post='856943'] In all reality. You can carry AFTER having a beer, just not WHILE having a beer in a restaurant. but that's a personal choice. [/quote] That's incorrect. TCA 39-17-1321 (a) covers possession of handgun under the influence. 39-17-1321b subsection applies to drinking while in an establishment while armed. You can't be in possession of the handgun while under the influence. There is no per se influence level for this statute like DUI has a per se level of .08 BAC. I don't even risk it. If I'm going to have a drink the gun stays at home.

Disarmed in a traffic stop
Pain103 replied to tennessee01tacoma's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
You and many people jump to assumptions about this situation. None of us where there except the OP and none of us know what the circumstances where in this interaction at all that is a fact. The Monday morning quarterback comment is for people who want to tell others how do their job after the fact. If you can do it better then get hired and do it. Just having a HCP doesn't make you a saint or even a good person believe me I've seen some people who should be in prison and gang members with a HCP. While at the same time I've known several good people and even family members that are HCP holders. I even have one myself. If you are disarmed and don't believe there was a justification then complain. But don't jump to conclusions about someone else's situation unless you where there. Now in my experience I have never disarmed a legally armed HCP holder. I give them credit due to my experience and interactions with the many I have encoutered. I don't want to disarm them just like I wouldn't want to be disarmed. But if in a situation I have articulable facts to explain I may have been in reasonable fear to disarm the person during our encounter it will be done. Hopefully that never has to happen but if it does I will do what I am legally allowed to do to ensure the safety of myself and the other person and conduct the business at hand. Now I don't assume automatically HCP holders are threats due to that fact alone they are treated like anyone else I encounter and will continue to do so unless they make the situation change. -

The joy of Monday morning quarterbacks. -
Some computers can send text messages through their wireless broadband cards. The computer is assigned a telelphone number. I have a laptop hooked up to to verizon wirelss broadband that does this. But I don't know how or if it could make actual phone calls.

ticketed/towed away for parking in front of a garage?
Pain103 replied to Sam1's topic in General Chat
With it being private property without being handicap or fire lane violation the company will have to do the towing the police won't be able to touch that. Talk to the management about who is there designated towing company for violator vehicles. They may be already told/authorized to tow the vehicles of people who are in violation of the complex's parking rules. -
Which sister... lol

I wouldn't recommend carrying without one ready to fire unless you have done extensive drills with your firearm. I mean so many it becomes pure muscule memory because when it hits the fan and you lose your fine motor skills it could be deadly.

It never fails if I just dry cleaned and pressed my uniforms and put a nice shine on my boots I end up tromping through woods or mud. Even worse is when someone fights and I get rips in my uniform or a broken nameplate. I can't stand my uniform to be nasty so I change fairly quick if possible. I've always told the new guys sometimes it's those small encounters that make big impressions on people.

I've done simmunitions several times and love the training. You learn from your mistakes quickly. The only issue here I don't like is having the people bring their own firearms in to use. I would have to use only the range sim guns. If there is a way for somebody to screw up, it is going to happen.

Nice knife but don't waste the beer! How much does that thing weigh?

[quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1352432913' post='842258'] There is no federal speed law. The last one was repealed in '95. - OS [/quote] Good call. I stand corrected.
-
I'm sure that's a state highway so that wouldn't suprise me but you will never see a raise of the speed limit on the US highways or interstates until the Feds say so. They would probably lose federal road money if they raised it without approval or whatever they do. I think 70 is a decent speed people already can't drive and do 85+ so raising the speed limit also raises that threshold people think they can do before getting stopped.

Suggestions on home defense shotguns
Pain103 replied to jwinter's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I've had both Mossberg 500 and a Remington 870 you can't go wrong with either. I carry my own 870 daily in my patrol unit so I'm really used to it. But I would trust either in protecting my family for home defense. Just gotta take care of them and they will last forever. -
Marine Corps helicopter pilot sues over Wyo. traffic stop
Pain103 replied to a topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
[quote name='Flatwoods Forge' timestamp='1352249852' post='840467'] I'm not like most people on this forum. I think that the law enforcement profession is 90% power tripping wanna be heros, and 10% decent people. [/quote] That's a pretty ignorant statement unless you know all 100% of the law enforcement officers in the world and could prove that. You are entitled to you opinion but it would be like me saying everyone in East Tn are crazy. I can't prove this and don't believe they are but it's just a blanket statement like yours made of discontent and opinion rather than fact. Oh well the world moves on whether you like the police or not but the cop hating bandwagon gets old. -
Having worked many of deer crashes and avoiding them nightly my advice to anybody is be aware and look ahead. Look beyond the short distance immediately ahead of your vehicle. Sometimes you can't avoid it just slow and don't swerve off the road.

Mom leaves HCP class, takes gun to school

The link JHC posted says she took the class the night prior. Even worse. -
What is this thing? Mobile big brother?
Pain103 replied to Hi Point Hooligan's topic in General Chat
There are no camera speed enforcement units in Davidson County. That is a camera trailer placed in certain spots occassionally due to crime. I see you mentioned Nolensville Rd some crazy stuff happens on Nolensville Road. Probably only be there a short time. So much for the revenue generator ideas. -
Metro Nashville amendment 3 - Sheriff
Pain103 replied to monkeylizard's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
It was their solution in response to the lawsuit that the Sheriff's Office doesn't have the power to enforce 287g. Ozment sued saying it should have been Metro PD not the Sheriff doing the program because they aren't LE. The County won the lawsuit but proposed this change to avoid future suits. I believe Don Hall just terminated the 287g program, i may be wrong but that's what I heard. But they will probably taking over courthouse security and maybe some other functions they haven't done before. -
I couldn't find any statute about killing domestic animal other than poisoning. If the dogs weren't on the guys land I would have went afterwards and sworn out a warrant for allowing a dog to run at large. TWRA shouldn't have been involved unless they were hunting dogs.
