    From JEMS; Man pulls gun on EMTs...

    When I worked EMS, I carried a knife and a big 'ol Maglite. I probably could have been fired for the knife, as my employer (AMR) has a strict "no weapons" policy. But I took my chances. I definitely got into some hairy situations (if you're familiar with Tampa--here's two words: College...

    Fanny Pack for CC

    I use a "fanny" pack over the shoulder...carrying a 4" .357 Taurus. It might be obvious to some, but concealed is concealed, and it's on me.

    Advice for gun shows?

    I had hours of fun at my last gun show--I took my wife and 8 month-old daughter, and neither one complained once. In fact, one seller offered me two holsters in trade for the little one! But seriously, we had fun and met some nice people--more than one complimented us on "starting her off...

    Do you know a pro gun cop?

    I guess my dad counts...he just retired after 20 years as a state trooper, in a "not-too-keen" on guns state--NJ. I'll never forget discussing the US Constitution with him, and he said: "Well, the second amendment makes the others possible." He's always supported self-defense, and is a bit...

    call made. the young lady was polite, but she sounded a bit breathless, as if she had already heard this complaint and explained the company stance many, many times today. keep hittin' 'em!

    Repressive states...ever considered moving?

    I'm another "Gunshine State" res--I think I'm tired of the heat, people, and crime too--heck, sick of FL in general. But I refuse to "trade down" to a more restrictive state. My wife, bless her heart, would love to move to CA. I just can't do it. If and when we do move, this will be but one...

    Homer Simpson gets a gun...

    that's a great episode--I love mayor quimby's quote after all the guns in town are rounded up and destroyed: "I hereby declare this town--defenseless"

    Anyone Read "Blackwater"?

    I agree 100%...I've never met the man, in fact I've only read Scahill and Pelton's books on the subject, but from what I can tell, Prince has a specific vision for America, and as a very successful businessman with numerous gov't connections, he is taking advantage of his opportunities to...

    Anyone Read "Blackwater"?

    i think scahill really let his agenda show with this one... ugh, i can wade through biased writing, but when it's written this poorly, it gets tough. how many times does he allude to prince being a "christian fundamentalist"? i lost count. repetitive and slanted, [but i'm still glad i read...

    Question for Libertarians (big L)

    i have to agree with Noxx here... much like many voters turned off by the idea of "throwing their vote away", most corporations probably want to back a [potential] winner. great question, though...could you imagine what would happen if big companies not only contributed money, but actively...

    I love the Warthog!

    i've been to davis-monthan afb, and getting up-close and personal with an a10 was by far my favorite part. bad gun handling, i know, but i just had to stick my fingers in the bore of that 30mm! my tour guide had worked on a10s during desert storm, and had stories of jets that had been shot to...
