CCW shoots at mugger in Walmart parking lot
monkeylizard replied to a topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
This might be a good time for us to take a deep breath and remember that what gets added to the Internet stays in the Internet....FOREVERRRRRRRRRRR So it's not too hard to see how a prosecuter might use one's own words to show a judge or jury that a person did indeed intend to kill the deceased attacker, and in fact pre-meditated that desired outcome, not just used lethal force stop a threat to his/her life or serious bodily injury. -

Other than a handful of nut-jobs out there, no, none of us think the undead will rise up and try to eat our brains. "Zombies" is a useful metaphor for whatever societal collapse one might want to be prepared for. For those who consider such things, that could be foreign invasion, viral outbreak, civil war, economic collapse, natural disasters, etc. If you're prepared for a zombie apocalypse, you're prepared for any of those real things. By focusing on any one of the "real" events, people start arguing over the likelihood of the event instead of focusing on the prepping methods. So if a person says they're preparing for a civil war, someone else will come along and say that won't ever happen and they need to be preparing for a natural disaster instead. Neither poster knows the likelihood of either event, and it's irrelevant. The tools, supplies, and skills needed to survive one are more-or-less equally employed to survive another. It's not a perfect overlap (usually less shooting in a natural disaster vs. civil war for example), but by and large that holds true. So "zombies" form a common ground that we can all work from. As was posted above, even the CDC has a zombie preparedness guide. If you look closely, it's pretty much the same stuff in their hurricane and earthquake guides. They finally learned that by adding a little fun to their literature, people may actually read them. You'll also find zombie threads that have little if anything to do with prepping, like The Walking Dead threads. That's just because zombies are fun.

Buys ammo at Wal-Mart. Resells it at Bill Goodman's.

Not sure. I haven't seen the bill this year (should come any time now) and I don't recall what it was a year ago. I use Terminix.

I guess the NRA is trying to piss me off today

+1 to the termidor. If you want to DIY, do the perimeter treatment around your house. Dig up the top few inches of dirt around the house's outer perimter and apply as described on the label. The advantage to having a contract is that you get damage coverage from most of them. IF you have a problem with termites later, they pay for it. If you look in your crawl space every year and check each wall for termite tubes, and if you're the kind of guy that keeps up with his home maintenance, chances are that you'd find them before they did any major damage. I had them at a prior house eating on the paper on the drywall in one small area, then I noticed they had eaten up about 4 feet of baseboard. I treated...they died...I fixed the damage. It's possible they ate on the studs in that wall too, but it wasn't worth tearing out drywall to find out. On the other hand, I have a neighbor now (different house than my termite problem) who had them years ago and treated for them and repaired the visible damage. Similar situation to mine before. When we both flooded in 2010 and he got the sheetrock out, the studs in that wall below his big heavy bay window looked like swiss cheese... I now have mine professionally treated and inspected and under contract.
