    WTD - Bad Dogs

    cattle prod I am not sure that is the only problem - the other problem I see is that you have to carry it around with you. :) Ideally, your defensive measure is something you can have with you and easily usable 100% of the time, and I don't know if a cattle prod fits the bill. Are they...

    lollysmith.com Shillelagh Review

    very nice That is very nice. The Shilleleagh has a great deal of rustic class that make it easy to carry about with you and remain non-threatening to hoplophobes. They served the Irish well for hundreds of years.

    Officer Shot By Partner During Pit Bull Attack

    kids That is prudent with any dog. I have 2 labradors, 5 and 6 years of age, neutered, socialized with children, who always play appropriately with kids - they love to run with older kids but slow way down and are very gentle with little ones. The "boys" fall outside most the statistical...

    Nancy Grace - Mall Ninja Wannabe

    Nancy Grace Although Nancy Grace frequently touts herself as a former prosecutor, she typically demonstrates on her shows that either she knows little or nothing about criminal law and procedure (and I teach criminal law and procedure so I can say that) or she deliberately misrepresents issues...

    shooting dogs

    citation? Do you have some citation for a "nationwide leash law"? That certainly is not the law in the jurisdiction I live in. In fact, immediately around me I have: state parks - dogs on leash only state forest land - dogs specifically allowed off leash federal conservancy lands...

    Mountain biking ccw options.

    mountain biking I use a Camelback MULE when I ride trails - I used to carry a Glock 27, now usually carry a S&W 637 with CT laser grips - although I just got a 337 and that may be a good pack gun. The weight is important, as well as something I want to land on when I go off the edge. :rolleyes...

    'nuther Ruger Vaquero

    I bought a revolver here on THR, shipping to my FFL. Of course, when I went in to pick it up I saw this nice original Vaquero Special Edition - 45LC with the extra cylinder for 45ACP. I was looking for a nice second Vaquero, so I brought it home to go with my Birdshead.
