I deleted the post because I certainly didn't want to make anyone look unintelligent. I don't consider myself to be unintelligent and I don't believe most people that know me think that either. I did check the story on snopes and it wasn't listed there. I'm not sure where to verify the...

When I was 12 we were still waiting for the chinese to invent gun powder. (actually I only FEEL that old)

Walmart prices are hard to beat but they're kind of like $2.00 gasoline. It seems like a deal after $4/gallon but in reality it's still too dang high.

Whether it was political or not the responsible n00b administrator should probably go apply for a management job at AIG. He would get bonuses for those kinds of policies.

I think if I were a business owner promoting the NRA I would pick a percentage of every sale for contribution. It could be a small painless percentage for the buyer that would add up to sizeable money for the NRA.

Legal or not I think you should respect a property owners stance on CCW. I think the zip tie thing at shows is purely for liability. Is CCW dangerous at a gun show? Not if you leave it concealed. If you are shopping for a holster, mags or other accessories for it then unload and zip it. I'm...

I think this highlights the fact that a politician's primary objective is getting re-elected. So if enough voters speak loudly enough and back up what they say with their vote the pols listen. Good for us! Keep on telling your reps and senators. If you vote against guns I'm voting against you.

What about open carry or a rifle in a scabbard?

I'd call and ask if he would throw in some ammo for $700 and if he bites start laughing.

In Ohio it is my understanding that your first obligation is to avoid the confrontation if at all possible. That means turning and running if you have to. Now if you have friends and/or family with you then you all need to be able to avoid it. So if I understand eye5600's question if you were...

Bottom line, make sure you HAD to shoot. You were in fear for your life. You shot to stop the threat. And make sure you have access to the funds for a retainer for a defense lawyer. You will need one before the grand jury convenes (although it's possible you won't be charged). But you will...

Keep in mind most of us are going to have some issues knowing you killed another person. My CCW is for the defense of myself and those close to me. If we're not in danger my gun will stay in its holster.

He probably didn't read the bill. There's a lot of that going around you know.

I also agree with the last statement in the article that using disorderly conduct as a catch-all is the real issue. What a crock. It's kind of hard for me to understand how legal conduct is disorderly. I further agree with triggerhappy that it's amazing the DA pursued it.

This might give you some insight if not answers. http://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/aquarium_weight.php

When I'm rational and not emotional (99% of the time) I ask myself this question before I act: What do I have to gain and what do I have to lose?

WVMountainboy, you wrote: "I don't want this to be a political thread, instead a general discourse about how to properly betray our ways in front of "non-gunners" or people who are on the fence." Since this thread is about communication and not being misunderstood perhaps you may want to...

I made Eagle in 1972 (I think) in Troop 122. I am also a Vigil member of the Order of the Arrow.

CoRoMo got it right. 'you watch your dog' gets a 'you watch your kid' response. You communicated your thoughts. He was a jerk and instead of apologizing he had to get in a parting shot. The wife's response turned it into an argument. I tend to use sarcasm a lot. If I HAD to say something...

In our class we were taught the phrase " I shot to stop the threat". In Ohio you are obligated to avoid the confrontation if possible. Also in Ohio and other states as well the castle doctrine is becoming popular. If the shooting happens in your home (to an intruder, not a buddy or family...
