    I'm really worried that the upcoming elections will result in our guns being taken!!!

    Without mentioning names of candidates, so that this post is not a political party one, I'm really worried that after this election we'll no longer be able to carry concealed, and no more assault appearance semi-auto rifles being available for sale! Although states have their rights, can't the...

    Bringing Non-Firearm Weapons into a Privately Owned Place That Says "No Weapons"?

    My question involves law for the state of Utah and is about non-firearm weapons. The other day I went to the Energy Solutions Arena. It used to be called the Delta Center and its main purpose is where the Utah Jazz in the NBA play. I went there to go to a career fair. Hidden on me, I was...

    What type of non-lethal force can you use in defense of property?

    The difference is it wasn't overhanging onto another's yard. I told him that it's one thing if it was. Actually, that does give me an idea. The guy who trimmed those bushes, one of his immediate neighbors has a really nice looking and big pine tree that's overhanging his yard. About 1/3 of...

    What type of non-lethal force can you use in defense of property?

    I'll go take a picture of the bushes. He cut most of it, but left a part of it. Just looking at it, it obviously wasn't infringing on someone's way through. This guy who did the trimming has a tree on his property that has a branch that comes down low enough to make the leaves scrape the top...

    When you sleep at night with a gun, do you leave your bedroom door unlocked in case..

    medical personal have to help you? I've thought about this lately. I personally sleep with my sidearm chambered right next to me and lock the bedroom door, so that it will give me more warning in advance if someone were to try to come in. This lady the other day says that she locks the door...

    Sarah Palin questioned about assault weapons....

    Sarah Palin should have just asked for actual references in the interview. It would also need to be a peer reviewed journal reference, or else it's not the trust worthy. Regardless, the ATF says that hardly any of the gun crimes are committed using assault style semi-automatic firearms. The...

    What type of non-lethal force can you use in defense of property?

    When can you use force to defend property? I went to the Utah code from their .gov website, 76-2-406 says: It says no deadly force, so isn't it talking about something different than protecting yourself when you're in danger? This appears to be very different than protecting your home...

    What type of non-lethal force can you use in defense of property?

    Isn't it illegal for the guy to cut the bushes? Thanks for all of your answers so far, this is just a learning experience for me. It sounds like some of you are saying that it would be illegal for him to cut the bushes, but illegal for a homeowner to physically stop him? Another question I...

    What type of non-lethal force can you use in defense of property?

    I know in the state I live in, the state statute says that you can't use deadly force to protect property, but you can use non-deadly force if you reasonably believe that it's necessary to protect property. I'm curious because this one guy asked me if I thought my neighbor would mind if he...

    Another reason why I agree with self-defense and self-reliance

    I was pointing out that when you hear that those in trouble for murder are suing for things like that, it makes you believe that you have even more of a right for self-protection from would be murderers (such as owning firearms). At least that's how I feel.

    Another reason why I agree with self-defense and self-reliance

    You sometimes hear that prisoners complain that prison isn't good enough for them. This one guy who's in a county jail awaiting trial for "murder" is now suing the government because the jail he's at feeds them an average of 3,000 calories/day, which he claims is "starving" them, and gives them...

    Someone told me to forget about guns and situational awareness because...

    I was just trying to say that if you don't ever do anything because God will just help you out, you're going to get in trouble. You don't jump off a cliff saying that God will just protect you. Some of our choices may increase decrease the odds that certain things will happen in our lives...

    Someone told me to forget about guns and situational awareness because...

    I can say that some conversations you have with people are stupid. The other day I was talking with someone and they said to forget about firearms for self-defense and situational awareness throughout your day because you can die from anything at anytime. He said that you can die from a shark...
