Speaking from personal experience, Texas LEO do not have to charge you with a crime to confiscate your weapon. Further, said weapon does not have to have been utilized in any fashion if they feel it should be confiscated for "reasons of safety." It took me 3 months to get one of mine back from...

The only question I've ever been asked when buying ammo at Wal-Mart is, "Holy F*** Man! You planning on invading Mexico or something?" Of course, I was buying a little over 5,000 rounds of WWB. Took a bunch of friends shooting for the 4th.

Just a clarification. He wasn't just jogging across the campus. He had just come from a 'Pirates vs Ninjas' event sponsored by the Wesley Foundation, a national on-campus United Methodist organization.

Unless you move to the lone bastion of anti-rhetoric....Dallas. *shudder*

10lb Maglite? That's the 18 foot long, 45 D-Cell version, right?

The Bandito's and the H.A. have had a truce going for longer than I can remember. Texas is Bandito territory, and by the truce Hell's Angels don't wear their colors in Texas. My understanding is that the 'organizer' was wearing his colors, violating the truce, pure and simple.

Ain't that the truth. A while back I was in a particular mood after work, so I drove on down to the range. My range is always a little on the warmish side, so I just took off my tie and rolled up my sleeves. Didn't think for a second about it. So the guy two lanes down is practicing...

Let me tell you, the more I study current events, the more I wish I could make a few people 'listen to Reason'.

My wife had the same attitude, and it makes sense, to them. In her eyes, a rifle or a shotgun was more utilitarian than a handgun. My wife felt that a rifle or shottie, even an evil black one, could be used to hunt for food, to provide for the family in times of need. A handgun, in her eyes...

My wedding was kind of interesting. In my Faith, the groom must put his trust in his best man to defend him from all possible encroachments, both physical, emotional, and spiritual. The groom's focus should be entirely trained upon his bridge and the spiritual obligation he is about to make...

You might also try a Powerball. http://www.powerballs.com/ About seven years back I crushed my right wrist. I mean, it was almost powder. After it healed, and LOTS of therapy, it was nowhere near as strong as it was before. That has hindered me for several years. About a year ago I...

*blink**blink**blink* Ok, my BS-O-Meter has officially 'red-lined'. I guess the shockwave from the awesome speed of this round should have blown my leg clean off, rather than leaving this danding little scar from the grazing. I'm lucky I can still walk! I mean, the shockwave alone should...

That's the problem that we have with our current system. She consulted with a number of 'private' lawyers prior to the trial. Each one that she spoke with assured her that this would be a relatively simple trial to win, but it would take time. As we are all aware, time is money. The lowest...

Ok then, here's one for ya. How about if the person is convicted of a crime for doing, quite literally, nothing. Several years back my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was a -very- bad case, resulting in her hospitalization. The combination of chemical and radiological therapies...
