    Less ambiguous "what we can do"

    Pax Good points about the girl. Were I running this class, I would pass on "correcting" her stance - it's pretty textbook for defensive pistol shooting.

    I move for a moratorium on "The VT students should have rushed the gunman" talk.

    Yes, if you want to have a chance at living. Please consider that you may one day actually face such a situation. It's not about heroism; it's about pragmatism. I don't condemn those dead and wounded kids. I pity them and I am sympathetic to the loss their loved ones are feeling right...

    Rush show comment-- why didn't they rush him...

    Second-Guessing I don't think it's despicable. In my job as an LEO and LEO-trainer, I do it all the time. Every shooting report that comes across my desk, every incident gets picked apart by the training staff. What did this cop do right, what did he do wrong, what could have have done...

    VT - Delay in receiving medical treatment

    10-4 that, Jeff In an active-shooter situation, we will walk right past the dead and wounded, after making certain none are armed, until we locate and neutralize the shooter. Rescue personnel will be permitted on-scene after we are reasonably certain all of the shooters are in custody or...

    I move for a moratorium on "The VT students should have rushed the gunman" talk.

    Cancel that moratorium I AM a person with training who has done many VIP details, call responses, arrests, search warrants, etc. etc. and etc. I train for active shooter situations at least a couple of times each year. I'm not an "armchair commando" but a veteran LEO. I am in agreement with...

    Then and now.

    Oh! and maybe on BOTH pictures have a menacing shadow of a thug cast somewhere. In both photos, the woman faces a deadly threat but in one, she is prepared to fight back. In the other, she is preparing to die calling 911 or MSNBC or whomever she has on speed-dial.:barf: PROGRESS?

    Less ambiguous "what we can do"

    Nice photo, good concept How about "Training" in big letters at the top and "because we can't bring back the dead." at the bottom.

    Then and now.

    Oleg, stop writing when you should be taking pictures! Scrap 85% of this concept and salvage the visual imagery. STOP making posters with more than 5 words. You are an excellent photographer and when you use images to convey your ideas you excel. The moment you start typing your product...

    Does Ron Paul have a chance?

    Does Ron Paul Have A Chance? NO! NO! Americans are too stupid to read the Constitution, much less elect a guy like Paul.

    CCW & Public Restroom..what do you do?

    In 11 years of carrying daily I have managed to tactically execute my poo from the safety of my own home or a toilet in a secured federal facillity. If you lack my Zen-like control over your bowels, practice focusing your Chi:neener: .

    Conceal Carry Preferences

    Anwers >>>1. Do you carry with one in the chamber? Carrying with an empty chamber negates the whole purpose of having a weapon. I carry with one in the chamber. >>>2. How do you carry (Front pocket, back pocket, inside waist band, etc)? I carry in a strong-side holster (meaning I am...

    "Why?" "To support morals..."

    Mr. Orange "And he came in and started quoting some bible verse about laying vengeance upon us, and then he shot Marvin in the head, and then he tied up the manager and cut off his ear and poured gasoline on him and then he left and kidnapped a preacher and his family in a Winnebago..." No...

    Ever had to put your hand on your gun "for real"?...

    Three times all on the job as an LEO. I do white-collar crime investigations so it's not like I'm chasing street-level dopers or anything. Most of the time, my work is pretty serene. When I used to work narcotics, it was standard to draw during arrests or search warrants. The four times I...

    What Firearms Do the Feds Use

    Holsters, Pistols, and Sundry FBI and IRS-CI are currently issuing Glock 22 or 23 depending on the agent's preference. HHS IG was getting the Glock 23. Secret Service, the Sig 229 in .357 Sig. Customs (now ICE) used to issue the S&W DA/SA pistols, then went to the Glock 9mm. The last time I...

    Could this become a Waco/Ruby Ridge? Happening RIGHT NOW!

    I am a federal LEO and I often work with IRS CI special agents. This following bit from Sniper X is an all-to-common misconception: While they do have programs for those with tax problems, they still go after what they term "willful failure to file returns or pay tax." In legal lingo...

    Pleasant thought of the day: fatherland security

    This is probably the most irrelevant and absolutely paranoid/crazy piece of work you've posted on this site to date. I say "probably" only because I'm certain that I haven't seen all of them. If the U.S. is the great evil you make it out to be, please do all of us a favor and go back home...

    Pentagon SWAT uses .40cal MP5's?

    Dedicated Response Team High-value, hard-to-resume targets like the Pentagon, White House, and Capitol have their own dedicated response teams. They exist for one reason only. If team members are lucky, they have a very, very boring career. Dedicated teams are a necessity. They know every...

    Info on N Carolina gun laws

    Odd-Ball Laws OK, we have a handgun purchase permit required to transfer handguns, either privately or through an FFL. However, if you have an NC Concealed Handgun License, this requirement is waived. We have the most reciprocated CHL in the U.S. but the list of places you can't carry is long...

    Dang, Oleg I was really hoping "How To Talk To Politicians" was going to be the title of one of your posters!
