I would guess that most law enforcement personnel who work in states where concealed carry is allowed know that the bad guys will attempt to run or maybe even attack law enforcement. The bad guys certainly aren't going to ask the law enforcement agent "How would you like to proceed, seeing as...

If any of these supposed "gun safety" groups were really about "gun safety", then they would offer similar gun safety training courses to what the NRA offers. I've asked a number of people who told me that groups such as Americans For Gun Safety were supporters of the 2nd Amendment and just...

There has been discussions regarding the jurisdiction of federal law enforcement in Portland, specifically regarding protestors who commit a criminal act on federal property but then run to local or state property where they believe they are safe from the federal law enforcement agents. Federal...

I wonder if this is just a revenue generator for the state. How much will the licensing cost for gun dealers? How long is their license good for? Why require both a federal AND a state license to be firearms dealer, other than for pure revenue?

Hunted lots of gray and fox squirrel and cotton tail rabbits. Used solid points on squirrels with good results. Used HP's on rabbits as they are bigger and solid points didn't seem to have the same knock down power as did the HP's.

Do these same liberals, who believe that having a gun would make them do something they might regret, also believe that buying a Playboy or Penthouse magazine will cause them to rape or sexually assault their neighbor lady or some other female whom they happen upon? It's such a silly take on...

So why doesn't the government just send them out and let you answer the questions and then mail it back. Or, they could let you fill out the form on line and submit it that way. Why do we need to have warm bodies come to our neighborhoods to personally ask the questions? How much does that cost...

They should have included: 5. "less restrictions on law abiding citizens in keeping and bearing arms". I bet that would have really affected the numbers and it's a legitimate choice of answers. That's the problem with some of these polls. They pigeon hole you into the "better" answer without...

I heard they are employing ACORN to help conduct the census. Those guys are purely on the up and up. No need to worry about any shady characters or shenanigans with ACORN on the job. :rolleyes:

Ahh, let me see now. Do I count my bb guns, air soft guns and paintball guns? Oh, just firearms? Hmmm. Geez, I've got so many I lost count. Then I sold a bunch to the nice looking Mexican boys who stopped by my garage sale last summer. I can't remember how many of my black assault weapons they...

Exactly. When you read their pompous proclamations regarding gun control, they never fail to use the most "alarming" adjectives and nouns that they can think of to scare the public. It's like a word association game they are playing with the ignorant public. OK, I know you don't know much...

Hey I had people shaking in their boots the last time I bought an AX! The Lowe's guy had to carry it out of the store for me (as if that wasn't weird enough) and people stared at me like I was about to screm, "Here's Johnny" at any second. There's no way a kid could go to a halloween party...

A little bit off topic, but related to how our society perceives "danger" and that includes firearms. Here's two examples. 1. a uniformed security guard carrying a side arm probably makes most people, even those who are scared poopless of guns, feel more secure if he/she is nearby. A citizen...

This is like some store such as Walmart where they have their "hunting style" knives locked up in a glass case, but you can grab some kitchen knives and walk right out to the check out counter with no questions asked. How's that for "emotionally" driven decision making? I guess hunting knives...

Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow posted: You said a mouthful, Doc. When we stay focused and don't get too emotional, we are better able to pick up on the subtle issues and figure out ways to exploit them. This is no different than what the antis did for decades in claiming that the "militia"...
