  1. AFAIK, you can't turn that off. FB doesn't know that you don't know Stan. Maybe you want to be friends with Stan. Wash-Rinse-Repeat.
  2. Go to your Account Settings, then Notifications. even though you didn't change anything doesn't mean FB didn't add a new setting and default it to their version of "show me everything". Just review them all and see if any changes are needed.
  3. These things can turn slowly. It's not unusual to take a year from indictment to trial. I assume motions have been filed by the defense, which, AIUI, stops the clock on the "speedy trial" thing.
  4. AFAIK, he's awaiting trial. He entered a not guilty plea in January.
  5. I have a Remora for a Kahr PM9. I like (most of the time) that it doesn't have belt clips so it's super easy to put on/take off. It stays put just fine as long as I use a real belt. I have a few softer belts that it doesn't do as well with if I don't cinch them down.
  6.   The Bridgestone is not the same as other places like malls, restaurants, stores, offices, etc. that are legal to carry at. It clearly falls under 39-17-1311 which means it no longer has the option to prohibit carrying under that law.  If the Bridgestone is not posted under 1359* then I say no, they can't ask you to leave for that reason. That was the whole point of rescinding the local opt-out option in 1311. The point was to keep local authorities from denying armed HCP holders access to public recreational facilities. If they can just trespass you instead of nailing you on a 1311 violation, nothing changed. That's why I say they can't ask you to leave for that reason.   Well, they can ask, but there should be no penalty for non-compliance with that request. Again, no case law, so that's just my non-lawyer opinion.       *1359 may or may not apply to the Bridgestone Arena. Don't know for sure.
  7. We don't really know. Arenas and their ilk seem to fit in a hole in the law....maybe.   39-17-1311 is the parks carry law. The part that was repealed was section (e ) which allowed local governments to post them in accordance with 1311 to make them off limits to persons exempt under 1351 (aka HCP holders). So, 1311 no longer allows local governments to post their "public parks, playgrounds, civic centers and other public recreational buildings and grounds".   Seems straight forward, right?   Maybe, maybe not.   I think the case could be made that arenas and such could still be posted under 39-17-1359, which is the more general "gunbuster" law which is not limited to parks etc. the way 1311 is. 1359 section (f ) expressly says that it does not apply to certain locations and that those locations are covered under 1311. 1359's list of locations to which it does not apply are: "any public park, natural area, historic park, nature trail, campground, forest, greenway, waterway or other similar public place that is owned or operated by the state, a county, a municipality or instrumentality thereof".   See the difference? 1359(f ) could have been written to say that its defers to all locations covered by 1311, but it wasn't.   This leaves 2 questions regarding arenas, etc. Is if an arena, community center, stadium, etc. which is owned or operated by the government is a "similar place" to those others listed in 1359(f )? Does 1359 defer to 1311 for all locations listed in 1311 even though it has its own list of places to which it defers? If the answer to either "no" then they could be posted under 1359, even though they're excluded from posting under 1311. My personal opinion is that the answer to both is "no". We have no case law yet, so we really don't know for sure. A full repeal of 1359 would clear this all up quick, but I'm not holding my breath. It gets murkier when the facility in question is located entirely within a park's boundaries, like the new Ascend Amphitheater in Nashville which is completely inside and is a part of (not just surrounded by) Riverfront Park but has a no guns policy.   A zoo may be different as it's certainly closer to a park/nature trail than an arena. The fact that many are actually called "zoological parks" makes me lean towards zoos being in the "parks" category, but that's just my opinion.
  8.   Except for the "kill list" and bleach, I think that describes the trunks of some TGOers.  :D
  9. I have a Sawyer mini too. Easy to use and lasts a long time. That's my main filtration system with the Lifestraw as a backup. I also have a Steripen, but short of a crazy apocalypse where our rivers start to look like the Ganges, I shouldn't need it anywhere in the U.S.
  10. I brought up Jeff because the 3-day work week was mentioned and I said it must be a gunsmith thing. I was basing that off the GnL website showing Jeff working Thurs-Sat, which Metal has since dispelled and said he'll correct on the website.
  11.   It would never work because it would suck over there and they'd all be trying to move over on our side of the line. Kind of like the way it is now.
  12.   You need to update your website, because it shows Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. http://gunsandleather.com/gunsmith/   It's good to know he's there Sunday and Monday, because I have something for him to work on and those other 3 days never seem to work out for me to get up there but Sundays usually do.
  13. That's what makes it murky. It may or may not be an aircraft. We're really in uncharted waters due to the sudden expansion in the numbers of these things. The FAA  didn't have to do much about hobbyists flying model airplanes around because they're limited in number, and as long as they stayed away from airfields, they weren't really anything to worry about.
  14.   Maybe two laws. One is that it's illegal to jettison anything from an unapproved aircraft (the bullet)*. Two is that it's illegal to arm a civilian aircraft. It's murky though. The FAA hasn't officially come around to saying that drones are "aircraft", but they're certainly looking at what they want to do to regulate them.     *An example of an approved aircraft would be one licensed by the FAA for skydiving.
  15. I keep one in my hiking pack. I need to grab a few more for the BOBs. Every review and lab test I've read say they work. They make a larger model for familiy/village use that has apprently been a god send for some places in the 3rd world.
  16. The KMart lot is all but empty by the evening. You'll have no trouble parking it in there.
  17. You don't even want to know what an oil change will cost you in a Land Rover.   I personally don't like the looks of the Toyota FJ Cruiser, but by all accounts I've heard, they're pretty bullet proof. No longer produced for the US market, but maybe you could find a low mileage used one, or one hiding on the back corner of a dealer's lot.   Me, I'll never buy another new car again (unless I win Powerball) and I'll never have another payment (whether I win Powerball or not). Too many good used ones out there with may low miles. I found one today that's a make/model I'm eying that's under 1 year old with 2,100 miles on it and it's going for 20% off the sticker, and they were/are selling at/above sticker new.
  18. Rest easy. It can be in the car on school property, and (assuming he's not otherwise prohibited from having a firearm) he can have it in the car w/o an HCP. If they're going to another state, things will likely be a little different.   OK in car to pickup/drop off passengers. Notice that an HCP is not required.   OK to leave it in the car on school property with an HCP. Doesn't have to just be pickup/drop off   Carrying in car w/o permit is OK   ETA; TCA snippets.
  19. The jury decided today that Holmes' (Aurora, CO movie shooter) crimes were serious enough for the death penalty. Strange coincidence for this to happen on the same day as that.
  20.   http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/89502-gunman-opens-fire-in-lafayette-la-movie-theater/   You sir, are psychic.
