Democrat Senator Evie Hudak responded: “I just want to say, statistics are not on your side, even if you had had a gun. You said that you were a martial arts student, I mean person, experience in taekwondo, and yet because this individual was so large and was able to overcome you even with your skills, and chances are that if you had had a gun, then he would have been able to get than from you na possibly use it against you …”   http://youtu.be/zl0MS7Z-Sjc
  3.   So you feel it is also ok to be blindly charged for something that most people would deem as pretty much free since the 70's? At least back then you had to pay before you entered. Maybe they need a bathroom menu so they can charge you by selection and you can compare rates with other bathrooms in the area? Even a sign that says "patrons only" would at least be half way acceptable.   Giving out the information so openly is more of the issue I agree, but this is pretty much stupid all around.
  4. http://www.wsmv.com/story/21310627/woman-receives-bill-after-taking-a-restroom-pit-stop Woman receives bill after making restroom pit stop Posted: Feb 22, 2013 3:56 PM CST Updated: Feb 22, 2013 7:21 PM CST Reported by Kimberly Curth - email   ERIN, TN (WSMV) -              A license plate gives police a whole lot of information about you, and law enforcement is supposed to protect those details. However, one local sheriff admits he gave a driver's name and address away, and the reason he did it is downright bizarre. The story all came about when a woman stopped to use a restaurant's restroom and then left without buying anything. A few days later, the woman checked her mail to find a bill from that restaurant, asking her to pay for using their restroom. And it turns out the sheriff, himself, helped the restaurant's owners track her down. "I just feel like I've been violated," Patricia Barnes said. Barnes received a handwritten letter that asked for $5 because she used the restroom at The Flood Zone in Houston County. She and her husband said they aren't upset about the bill, rather they are outraged at the sheriff's involvement. "People don't have the right to just run your tags and give your information out to just anybody," said the woman's husband, Randy Edwards. The restaurant's owners wrote down Barnes' license plate number as she drove away and then asked Houston County Sheriff Darrell Allison to help find the person who used the restroom. The sheriff said that, at the time, he had probable cause to run Barnes' tag, because he was investigating it as a possible crime. But Allison didn't take a police report and didn't press any charges. Nothing happened, except for the bill that soon showed up at Barnes' home. The Channel 4 I-Team told Allison that Barnes and her husband were concerned he shared their private information and address with the restaurant's owners, but he said it happens more often than people might think. "I would say that happens every day. It's a very common occurrence," Allison said. State Rep. John C. Tidwell, D-New Johnsonville, said what happened to Barnes is disturbing. "The way I interpret it, it would be illegal," Tidwell said. He said there are laws to protect your personal information from being shared in such a manner. "The information should not have ever been given over to the business. That is information that is supposed to be dealt with by the state's agency or the official," Tidwell said. Tidwell said the law dictates that information from a license plate should only be used for law enforcement purposes and not be given out to the public. The sheriff said he sees it differently. "I would have to know you, one, and I would have to know that you're not the type of person that would just come to me or any officer wanting information about somebody or something," Allison said. Now, Barnes and her husband wonder what could've happened if that information got into the wrong hands, because they have gone to great lengths to keep their address unlisted after taking out a restraining order against someone in their past. "It could have potentially put me and my family in harm," Edwards said. "I don't want to see it happen to someone else that it really does cause some harm." It's not clear whether any laws were violated. The owner of The Flood Zone would not do an on-camera interview, but she said they are no longer charging to use their bathrooms. She added that she would never accept Barnes' payment and just wanted to get her point across. Allison said he only gave the restaurant owner the couple's names as well as the street on which they live.
  5. Technically, everyone in the targets are a threat since they are pointing a gun at me, just found the story interesting.
  6. Hopefully this is the correct section, didn't see it anywhere else.   http://www.infowars.com/dhs-supplier-provides-shooting-targets-of-american-gun-owners/    
  7. Read that on Drudge today, pretty funny.
  8. I am not sure I understand the purpose for this? If it is a routine traffic stop for a violation you committed, why does anyone care you have an HCP? They are going to ask for a license and registration, issue your citation and be on their way. I do not feel the need to bring any uneasiness by telling anyone I am armed, when it has no reason to be known. The officer will know when he runs my DL that i also have an HCP and if he has more questions, I won't mind answering. I do not carry in a fashion where anyone would be able to tell, so there should be no reason for an officer to be startled by seeing something while talking to me. Now, if it were a situation where I was going to need my car or self searched due to some kind of suspicion, then yes, I would present my HCP and tell them that I am carrying.
  9. That is the problem I ran into. Previous owner never titled mine. In order for me to title it, the original owner would have to take MSO and bill of sale to their clerk, pay the taxes on original purchase price, and then I could take the new title and register it with my clerk's office. It was going to add like 400 dollars to an ATV that i was paying a grand for. We decided it was not worth it, and I just retained their MSO and original bill of sale along with a new bill of sale written out for myself. I have a friend who buys, sales, and trades these often. He rarely gets one in with a title. Like R1100R says above, people often never register/title them. The person I bought mine from thought the MSO was the title, he never even knew he could go to a clerk and title it.
  10. You don't have to have a title or register them. You will need a Bill of Sale from whomever you purchase it to "show ownership". Having it titled to you may help prove it is yours in the case of a theft, but I think you can still get it insured without it titled. One of mine is titled, the other I was not able to title due to the original owner never taking the MSO title and paying the taxes to have it registered. I have owned a few ATVs, and will negotiate price down due to lack of title occasionally.
  11. I had to look that up, as I had no clue what it was. That is defiantely a cool gun, especially that circuit 410/45.
  12. I have caught them by accident fishing in ponds and they get on the hook while reeling in a small fish. There used to be some guys who would wade around the banks of the pond with hooks and grab them from the waters edge.
  13. www.tn.gov/twra/pdfs/fishguide.pdf Turtles A sport fishing license is required and only the common snapping turtle may be taken. Turtles taken by sport fishing methods may not be sold. Common snapping turtles may be taken by all legal sport fishing methods except archery, spearguns and dipping. Daily limit is 5 with a minimum legal length of 12 inches. (Length is determined by measuring the upper shell from front to back.) Sport fishermen may also take snapping turtles by the use of up to three hoop nets, with minimum net size of three inches on the square in Benton, Carroll, Chester, Crockett, Decatur, Dyer, Fayette, Gibson, Hardeman, Hardin, Haywood, Henderson, Henry, Houston, Humphreys, Lake, Lauderdale, McNairy, Madison, Obion, Perry, Shelby, Stewart, Tipton, and Weakley counties. Each net must be marked with the name and address of the owner. Each net must be set so that a portion of the catch area is above the water. No turtle may be possessed while afield which has been altered to the extent that its species and/or length cannot be determined.
  14. I have lived there 30 years, and have never heard of them. They must be a new dealer.
