Interesting article on Putin's handling of Crimea and Georgia
I agree with this. Russia doesn't have the large, powerful and technologically advanced military that we were taught to fear as children and young men during the Cold War. Putin isn't an idiot. He knows he has a couple of economic strings to pull, and he knows perception and indecision by...- BenCarp27

Informing law enforcement that you are carrying
I wouldn't feel the need to disclose that you're carrying if you're approaching him as a neighbor, and not confronting him as an officer. Just go talk to the guy. Chances are, he's not the big bad wolf, and he may be parking where he is for good reason. His answer may surprise you. We had a... -
Russia stops all ammunition exports to the u.s
Everything I've searched so far only leads back to the original SilverDoctors.com report. Even the handful of articles/sites that don't lead to SilverDoctors.com eventually lead to a forum, or board, that credits back to SilverDoctors.com. The articles starts off describing nameless big ammo...- BenCarp27

DC police can arrest tourists with empty bullet casings
Correct. Louisiana Senate Bill 51 allows Louisiana citizens to bring their firearms to work, provided they are secured in their vehicles. The refineries have "countered" this by designating a "Firearms Parking Lot". At the Chalmette site, the "SB51 Parking Area" is about an 800 yard walk. The...- BenCarp27

How to spot a fraud
All debates aside, I think the article did a good job of outlining general rules of thumbs concerning firearms instruction. You're not going to apply every rule during your search for classes, and you're not go to use some at all. The only rule I don't agree with is asking for a DD214. If I'm at... -
How to spot a fraud
Not to sound silly, but if I were an instructor, you can feel free to contact me about course content, class syllabus, range time and shooting info. If you are leery of the course, you could feel free to come sit in a portion of the course, without participating. I would not, however, provide... -
DC police can arrest tourists with empty bullet casings
That's the way it is at the Chalmette Exxon refinery. I've also seen guys take a 5 days suspension for having a baseball bat in the front cab, with no ball, gloves, cleats, etc. Basically, if the security officer that day decides its a weapon, and you can't reasonably argue that it exists for...- BenCarp27

The Circus, come one, come all! Main attraction- Talking Jackasses! (Pun intended)
This would be what Starbucks is trying to avoid, in my opinion. I wonder how many sales Starbucks lost in that half-hour time frame? -

The Circus, come one, come all! Main attraction- Talking Jackasses! (Pun inte... You can remember the exact date of the interaction, but had trouble remembering any other details about the incident. How long did you spend on Google looking up news stories before you could come up with a list... -

Hey, give me some credit. I just learned to use programs other than Solitaire & Internet Explorer not that long ago. -

The Circus, come one, come all! Main attraction- Talking Jackasses! (Pun intended)
Jstokes1, So, as I understand it, you were out shooting rifles, with occupied houses in the area. I'm assuming that you never had a berm, or backstop, because you tried so hard to validate your innocence in your post that we all know you would have mentioned it; of course, now you're going to... -
The Circus, come one, come all! Main attraction- Talking Jackasses! (Pun intended)
Not an advocate of open carry, but will reconsider this Saturday. Actually, unless your participating in one the listed exceptions, wearing a ski mask and carrying an AR in the mall is not legal, at all. Here: LOUISIANA Louisiana RS 14:313 §313. Masks or hoods, wearing in public places... -
Score for the citizen!
I really should know better than to dip my toes into yet another wonderful thread. -But- 1. The department's $15,000 offering is not, by any standards, an admission of guilt. Most departments will offer quick settlements in cases of accusation that they know will involve long, expensive...- BenCarp27
