JohnNRATallye, The word you're looking for is 'lurker' rather than 'troll' :)

twhtwlf, It's good to know how reckless you are. But you need to realize that being reckless & irresponsible is a very, very bad combination with firearms. You need to decide whether you are going to be reckless & irresponsible, or if you are going to be a responsible firearms owner. The...

twhtwlf, While it sounds like you were really ticked, you need to realize that you irresponsibly escalated the situation - just like the original poster (and may responses) point out is irresponsible, reckless, and dangerous, not only to yourself but others. You got lucky - it was only a...

I don't believe that the original post, in which Phil DeGraves said, was in support of states being able to keep slaves. I believe Phil had intended to compare states preventing the exercise of a civil right (infringing upon firearms ownership) with states preventing exercise of other...

M Jagger, You really seem to be trolling. But, on the off chance that you're not: Scalia's words can easily be interpreted as, "The second doesn't give you permission to kill someone without warrant." Yes, it opens the door to possible restrictions, but it doesn't immediately allow *all*...

You could consider putting it on casters (assuming the box is strong enough to support the ammo)

GunTech, Clarification noted and appreciated :)

sirwence, Governor Patrick decided to temporarily stand down the MASG, and study it. It's been stood down since February, or so. The study is supposedly to determine how to best utilize the resources available. If you're interested in joining, please send me a PM, with your contact info...

Actually, "Internet," and "internet" are two separate words. "Internet" (with capitalization) is a proper noun, referring specifically to the global network of computers. "internet" (without capitalization) is just a regular noun, referring to any computer network (which could be the Internet) :).

After reading the short descriptions, it sounds a little like how one dances fox trot/quickstep/waltz, if one were to stay lowered the entire dance. Of course, that may make little sense to anyone who doesn't do ballroom dance :)

up_onus, That would depend upon state law. In MA, the police would probably consider it brandishing. In other states, there are laws explicitly stating that that's a protected manner of transporting a firearm.

MakAttak, I can imagine another couple possibilities. The two cops could have had business there. They may have been pursuing an armed suspect, or they may have been dispatched to investigate a report that someone was hanging around the site. Perhaps one officer thought he saw someone...

Ya know, I haven't really thought that this thread was high road from the beginning. With cpttango30's recommendation of illegal actions, it's become decidedly NOT high road.

I only gave it a very cursory scan, but it's totally unclear who you're writing this to, and what it may be in response to. It's not possible to give a critique of your letter without any background.

Titan6, Some biometrics devices are better than others. Some fingerprint scanners have been fooled with gummy bears or play doh, some retina scanners can be fooled with photographs, voice recognition systems can be fooled by tape recorders, etc. Biometrics are good as an additional security...

Gideon, You might consider the question in stages, as well. Exactly what stage of an attack are you considering? If it's inside the house, you need to be concerned with over-penetration, and shooting your family. Is your home built so that every wall is a good backstop, for a rifle? Also...

Gideon, It's very hard for all us internet armchair quarterbacks to make this decision for you. Even harder with limited information. Before anyone can really venture to answer, one would need a better understanding of exactly what your situation is. Are you in the middle of the woods...

That looks pretty well written, and may swing some fence-sitters. Maybe I'm misremembering, but I thought there was a federal law that specifically allowed public universities to ban firearms on campus. Also, some readers will probably find your letter to be a little long. I'd suggest...

To the best of my knowledge, as a non-MA-licensee, it will be illegal for you to purchase ammo. I't's also generally illegal to posses a firearm in MA or ammo without a license (or FID) - I don't know if there's an exemption for attending training. I recommend you contact GOAL...

I haven't read the entire page to which you linked, so this question may already be answered, there. How does this film affect an emergency crew's ability to pull you out of your car?
