    Oh No! Another Open Carry Story.....

    I'd wager that they were intimidated by the rodent. :D

    Man’s arrest on gun charge prompts lawsuit

    Gonzales settles gun-carrying man’s lawsuit Sounds like the settlement is not enough to retire on, but hopefully enough of a sting that those who run the city are promted to remind their police that it is NOT good policy to violate the rights of the citizens.

    Violent Neighbor - No Police Protection - What do I do?

    Since your neighbor has already proven himself to of the un-neighborly type and unreceptive to a politie request, this would be the best course of action. Same here. What folks do in the privacy of their homes concerns me not one wit, UNTIL it starts intruding into my home. Calling for...

    Mountain Lion Shot in Self-Defense

    Sounds familiar. A couple of years ago a co-worker was turkey hunting in Nebraska, and had stopped to rest on a fallen log. Suddenly he found himself face down in the dirt with a puma on top of him. Cat thought better of the attack (unless it was just playing as cats are wont to do) and took...

    To open the door - Or NOT to open the door - that is the question

    Since I tend to a reclusive sort, if I don't know 'em the door don't open. Even if I DO know 'em it is most unlikely the door will open since I HATE drop in visitors.

    I saw the most anti gun movie ever yesterday

    As a comedic film, Bowling for Columbine is one of the funniest farcical pieces I've seen in quite a while. The depths of the idiocy in the film had me in stitches the first time I saw it in the theatres (I was dragged to it by the granola girl I was seeing at the time). :evil: For some odd...

    Home invaders pretend to be police

    Baring total replacement of door and frame with a steel door and frame set (something I've been looking for but been unable to find for residential use), these folks look like they have a good start on a solution. http://www.djarmor.com/Door-Jamb-Armor See also...

    New Gates

    Nix the roofing nails idea, they stay around a LONG time and I can see a jury finding the club at fault in a future injury case from someone stepping on 'em. My HOA is using Pyrocantha sp. to good effect in cutting foot traffic across our property and to a nearby bar. Planted a few years...

    Homeowner Shoots and Kills Neighbor Turned Home Invader

    peacedude1, grammar helps to convey the point of one's message. :D That smacks of being little more than just a cop-out to excuse acting before thinking. If the guy in question knows the woman is in an exclusive relationship with another guy, he is just as much to blame for what ills befall...

    I was almost involved in 2 shootings (part 2 of 2)

    Indeed. Rekey the house ASAP. Maybe I'm just of a paranoid sort, but I'd not be surprised that after this run in, you FIL "drops by" and removes those evil guns for the safety of his granddaughter. You being so unstable as to stalk around the house with a loaded pistol and all. I'll...

    United Methodist Church 2008 Anti-Gun Resolution

    Maybe you should suggest a resolution support legislation that limits the faithful to one service a month and that each domination shall have only one house of worship w/in a 50 mile radius. Good for the goose, good for the gander. :evil:

    Who do you suport in this situation?

    I wonder who here does not have in their home items that can be assembled together to look REALY bad for the resident? A couple of old flasks I keep as momentos of a past job, some tubing from a beer brewing kit and my old organic chem texts = METH LAB!!! :what: And doG forbid you do your...

    So it goes before a grand jury

    Can U Ident this Object?

    Bloomberg Outrage: Asks Judge To Ban 2nd Amendment References!

    Senseless Tragedy in MN

    Negligence plain and simple to my eyes. Manslaughter in the least. One point that should be made in this thread is that it is possible to detect the metabolites of THC long after the intoxicating effects wear off. For a regular user (couple nights a week after work) that can be as long as...

    Don't teach the baby about guns.

    18 months eh? Hmmmm...that strikes me as about right for bleed over from prior incarnations to register in the brain of the current incarnation. Your Connor may be remembering past exploits bringing down game and love of fine weapons. He's at the same age I was when I had my first such...

    What if it was you?

    Citation for this? I've lived in Colorado the entirety of my adolescent & adult life, and off hand the only thing this sound like is the murder of Ismael Mena by Denver PD. Were it my home? BOOM!!! BOOM!! BOOM!!! "Uh, the door won't open..." 1. "Take out the window"...

    The Sociologicalimages web page covering some of Oleg's work is interesting. 'specially with the discussion about his works.

    Disgusting....

    While I am often loath to suggest calling in the Feds, it would appear to me that the pistol is rightly a trophy of war, and as such if the frellniks in the City of Birmingham will not return return the pistol to its rightful owner then it should be surrendered to Feds as an artifact of that...
