    Houston Prepares for a Genuine SHTF Situation

    Well, I'm about a 1/4 mile from the beach here at Galveston, I'm staying, but I stocked up on some canned goods, water, gassed up the truck, cleaned up the p32 with fresh ammo, pmcs'd my two chainsaws and generator. tho I don't expect it to be cataclysmic, I expect flooding, no power, for at...

    A Matter of Values

    All blame should lay with the criminals/thieves. The victim/property owner should not be expected to make moral/value judgments during moments of crises. If someone cares about the instrinsic "value" of human life, then they should regularly feed and house the homeless or similar good work and...

    Griz Attacks Girl Biker

    I, too, agree with #36. I think the same with the alligators around here. I figure they're just about a worthless animal that pose a threat to domestic animals and kids. People should excercise common sense, but not at the risk of their lives by some animal.

    "Sir, do you have any weapons in the vehicle"?

    So some old guy actually believes in "protect and serve" because he hands out tickets and is constantly searching for murderers? Hope he's not taking any overtime money from the public coffers when he's called to an accident at the end of shift, or partake of the retirement benefits, or...

    LEOs at the range

    From what I've seen there's a few who are really good shots and they gravitate towards the "kicking in doors" group, a few more who shoot as good, but are more of a pragmatic, rkba types. The majority are poor shots, but do successfully complete their quals, which aren't that hard. I strongly...

    OK. so I just had a negligent discharge.

    It shouldn't be taken lightly, but neither should it be taken as the end of all things. It should scare you silly, and it should stay with you as a reminder of safe practices and vigilance, but don't beat yourself down, or anyone else. That is if no one got hurt. If they did, then that's a whole...

    More .22 Fun

    I bought one when they first came out, it's a pretty looking thing, but the safety would not stay put, so I traded it in on another pistol. Admittedly it was only for fun and plinking, but not a real sub for a 1911 training, too light. Also seemed very "fragile", would've liked something more...

    Chuck Rosenthal getting the boot... (TX)

    As I travel through Harris county quite a bit, I'm glad to see him on the hot seat. They need to get rid of the entire office, particularly Siegler. As for not being concerned about his "pesonal fetishes", I believe lacking moral standards is not a desirable trait in a prosecutor who enforces...

    Some people do not belong on the range

    Unless someone is being dangerously careless with handling a weapon on the range, it isn't none of your business. It seems the instigator is the guy who wishes to regulate the health of another complete stranger and uses the range rules as an excuse and then gets scared about the guy being...

    DOH! irresponsible gun owner A COP

    I know this happens, but what would have happened to Joe citizen? Since the weapon was recovered by public, the officer should be severely disciplined. Termination would not be out of the question since she was pretty reckless with a "deadly weapon".

    S.F. Zoo Tragedy - Tiger

    I'ts pathetic that people here, who own and carry firearms, don't give a damn about a human life. Preferring a stinking cat over a human. I don't care anything about taunting, that damn cat should never be able to get out of the cage. If the guys were in the cage is another thing, but that cat...

    I am Legend...

    I'd rather go rent Chuck Heston's version.

    Officer's response to 911 call that wasn't made.

    So leo's ain't there to be your friends? Then they ain't your friends. Exigent circumstances?..so it doesn't really matter then, what we think, feel, believe, know to be the truth? so long as YOU think what is best. I don't know why people try so hard to make heroes out of paid servants who...

    No trespass = No charge

    A principal is charged with the safety of students? So are they legally bound? Sued..criminal charges..etc? Nothing but chest thumping. Bad as politicians, which is what they are.

    Wesley Clark on the Man Cow Show...wow

    Only officers I've known to any extent turned out to be men who slept with their drivers (both male), cowards, lied under oath in court proceedings, were only mariginally superior in soldier skills than the average enlisted man, and nothing but politcal hacks who managed a college degree. The...
