I agree with the assessment that, if the weapon the transient was threatening with was an actual TASER with deployable prongs, it could put the security officer at risk of serious injury or death in that the guard might be unable to move while said transient took his firearm. I don't agree...

Probably because if you're going to secede, you don't ask permission/petition first from the government you plan on leaving... If that course of action were to be successful, it would just have to be done by the sovereign state that wanted out. The Obama administration must realize that much and...

"Commonsense." That word. You keep using that word. I do think it means what you think it means.

http://www.legis.state.tx.us/BillLookup/History.aspx?LegSess=83R&Bill=HB972 There are quite a few bills/acts "relating to the carrying of concealed handguns on the premises of and certain other locations associated with institutions of higher education." Some might be dead, but I've been...

I'd like to point out that there are actually several "An Act Relating to the Carrying of a Concealed Weapon at in Institution of Higher Learning" bills that have been introduced, but the HB 972 has made it the furthest. And after reading through them all, it is definitely the most well written...

I recently purchased an MSAR STG-556 from another individual on THR and I'm now looking to get some optics for it. I'm a college student on a budget, so I'm not looking at Eotechs or anything that high-end. Seems about $100 is where I'm comfortable. I know I'm not going to get the perfect...

Great video. Obama might be thinking twice about that funding to PBS now, though...

It protects pornography, but not "obscenity" (defined as anything patently offensive, appealing to prurient interest, and of no redeeming social value). So basically, if you can somehow show that your porn has some sort of artistic merit and the subject is not just the most disgusting sorts of...

In my opinion, the Salt Lick is overrated and expensive, but it's also BYOB, so it could be a good time for you. Otherwise, I'd recommend Hopdoddy's Burgers in Austin (I hate the name, but they've got an awesome buffalo burger). A&E Classic Cars in Schertz/New Braunfels (between Austin and San...

Just a funny picture I found that I thought I'd share. Pokes a little fun at how ridiculous all of this AWB garbage is. http://www.tickld.com/t/44479

I apologize for my perpetuating the myth that the AR-15 was indeed found in the trunk, that is just all I have heard and seen. I will stop bringing that up :P And thanks for the info on the .223/.556 rounds! I figured they would go through sheetrock pretty easy (it's not exactly a super hard...

I was following the thread that was started a week or so ago stating that Piers Morgan would be at a gun shop, Tactical Firearms, in Katy, Texas. Well here is a link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUTRbMOb_4Y Overall, I thought the owner handled the interview pretty well...

What speech was this? I wanna see!

Obviously he will not be anything but a spectator during the address... but that does not mean he couldn't be found for an interview by a news source that might edit him to make us all look like fools. But I suppose that is a risk every day. And that's not to say I don't like Ted. I admire...

Surely he'd leave out quaint terms like "suck on my rifle!" at an event like that... though I'm sure that could only serve endear gun-owners to the hearts of the liberal masses.

What I was taught in my criminal law course is that you ALWAYS have a right to defend yourself from unwarranted violence (even against officers, if they are not justified in their use of physical force toward you), but you NEVER have the right to resist arrest, even when it is "unlawful." Pretty...

If someone were ramming my vehicle in a road rage incident, I'm guessing that they are following so close that they would not have time to react if I were to slam on my brakes.... I know that in Texas, if you rear-end someone, you are pretty much always at fault from a failure to maintain safe...

Is that suggesting that, in Arizona, it is okay to kill someone in the process of committing statutory rape? Or am I just reading that wrong? "Sexual conduct" to me means something consensual and not forced or coerced, and it is separate from "assault" and "molestation."
