    There's something realled messed up about this story...

    Ibtl This topic does have as much to do with guns as most of the topics do. Use of firearms by citizens is discussed often. There are many threads about this. But discussion of those charged with protecting us when they are caught using firearms and heavy handed tactics without due...

    UK headed toward pollen-coated cartridges

    wear gloves, spray down the bullets with WD-40. Once they dry, the pollen should be encapsulated within paraffin. As far as the bullet case trapping skin cells, it should already be loaded with enough paraffin to preven this.

    Did Sportsmans Guide Break the Law?

    I've had ammo deliveries left on my porch, at my parents, at the feed store etc. I wouldnt worry about it.

    Armed citizen foils dumb bank robber

    Hmm. Just a personal thought. A person that is smart enough to make a bomb is not very likely to strap it to himself to rob a bank. Plus the fact that he was willing to take the ones starting out points to the fact we do not have a mensa candidate.

    Armed citizen foils dumb bank robber

    The story is about a week old. I don't start many threads but this one just kind of tickled me. I have to admire the man for his not taking any gaff from someone threatening him. I also liked his name. Not all CCW'ers have a classic US name of Smith or Johnson. Gotta love it when...

    Garland Business owner's son kills suspected copper thief

    The argument is not about killing a thief. It is about protecting property with force. Revenge does not come into this argument. You are getting a little closer Cosmoline, congrats. I agree that on a property crime that all available alternatives should be used first. But in the end, my...

    Garland Business owner's son kills suspected copper thief

    Hmm, ransacking a kins home after they are dead. Is it worth protecting with lethal force? Yes. Again you are still avoiding the core issue. Is property worth defending with force?

    Cosmoline Still avoiding the core of the thread and posting scenarios to get the response you want.

    Garland Business owner's son kills suspected copper thief

    Again nice try at avoidance of the core issue. A rent a cops job is to confront. Did he provide warnings before shooting? Did he provide alternatives to being shot beforehand? The issue is not threat, nor danger, but whether property is worth defending with lethal force. Try to get...

    Garland Business owner's son kills suspected copper thief

    Nice try Cosmoline. Again you have failed to provide a moral stance that property is worth more than the life of a thief. Instead you have provided what if scenarios that do not involve a thief, but lack of recognition of a family member or a situation that should involve smacking a kids...

    Garland Business owner's son kills suspected copper thief

    Cosmoline Nice try with the race card. Doesnt fly. I would believe that the business owner would have shot whether or not the thief was lily white or brown like me. I have already posted a request for those that believe property is not worth defending with lethal force to show their...

    If you had to choose a rifle and a handgun to go into a battle/armed conflict ?

    self propelled 8 inch howitzer and a glock 21. And yes, the howitzer is a rifle.

    Irresponsible behavior by LEO?

    I do not think LE are dumb either. The last stats I found placed them right around average. Not stupid, not exceptionally bright, but right in the middle of the bell curve where most people reside. As far as leaving the belt with firearm out in the open unattended, would it have been...

    Garland Business owner's son kills suspected copper thief

    Another thread about the worth of a thief versus property. You cannot put a value on human life. A thief will do it for himself. I am willing to shoot a person trying to steal my property. Is it an absolute? No. It is my choice what I will defend with lethal force. I likely will not shoot...

    Officer Shot By Partner During Pit Bull Attack

    I think it very likely the officer was hit by a richochet. I tell you true them pits are tough.

    Deadly Force to Protect Property?

    Prince Yamoto Why should I carry insurance to protect against thieves. That creates a default situation that no matter what, you are agreeing to lose property because of thieves. Yup, all things are replaceable. Including the thieves. I have already said it before, I am not trigger...

    Deadly Force to Protect Property?

    Prince yamoto Yes, I could be sued in a civil suit for shooting someone stealing my property. I can also sue you for your hair color. The odds of either suit finding merit with a jury are roughly the same here. Think of it as buying a lottery ticket for the price of perforation, it could...

    Deadly Force to Protect Property?

    NC Dave Not very likely in my AO. Most voters round here think as little of thieves as I do and they are the ones that sit on the juries. And again I will not arbitrarily shoot over property, but if I catch someone stealing property from me, there will be severe consequences. A few...
