I saw that thing on PC repair yesterday too Jim. I am no longer in that business but it really threw me. It would be like waking up and finding out that people who mow lawns for a living can no longer do so unless they are a licensed architect (or have one on staff). Funny how all this...

Why are you [you in the general sense] assuming that geographic proximity is a requisite element in establishing "common use"? Common is common. Can you really imagine a court saying that since handguns are common in Texas, but not DC, the law can be applied unequally... woot: post #600

I can't believe I read the whole thing up to here. I see this as a major positive and the other side is doing what they can to down play it and obstruct. Barely a day after the decision, people are still trying to read and digest - there is so much that it will take weeks, months and years...

I owned a Colt Defender for about a year. I really, really wanted to like the gun, but I could never trust it. It could be that I had a lemon, but I tried everything that was reasonable to try (mags, ammo, cleaning, etc) to no avail. My advice is to put a LOT of ammo through it before you...

Biker, Courtesy compells me to inform you that I have stolen that line from your signature to use on another forum.

The 13th warrior was a muslim if I recall. Great movie.

I wonder if they were worried about theft in the case of more anarchy? Interesting that the places that still have them keep them in back now. Remember, when society breaks down, places where there are a lot of guns become really tempting targets. But I am probably ascribing a level of...

Interesting. The company I work for used to do all their IT support. But my predecessor did too much shoddy work and they dropped us.

I work as an IT consultant to lawyers and legal offices exclusively. One of our clients in Houston (who has been on several big news magazine shows) specializes in cases where people flip out and kill people. They have boxes of cases that all go pretty much the same way: Normal person...

I would be interested to see the MBTI preferences for some of the people who feel they have this or at least some symptoms of it. Personally, I am the opposite. I scored 8 on the test which seems to be low. But I am very social, abstract and chaotic (as opposed to scheduled/organized)...

link to original thread?

The history in the isles is pretty rough. Protestant king oppresses catholics, catholic ruler oppresses protestants, etc. The pattern is repeated through out the history of man. We fight, kill, destroy and enslave those who are different than us. Different is scary, scary things might...

Too hard to undo safety laws. Better to ammed it to make LEOs subject to the safety. Who could object to safer police ;) ?

Not everyone agrees that with you medic.

Texas rules. I was working at Dell which is very anti-CCW. Now I work for a small consulting company as the lead analyst - I have not been explicitly told not to carry and one of the other guys wants to get his CHL also. Our boss is kind of odd - things that make him uncomfortable he...
