Old Glock guy

I've had the same experience with references. But I've seen you, and I would have to question your officer's judgement.

Tough to watch in spots, but very well done. Thanks.

I don't know about that. Sounded like Negan said after the first whack, "He's taking it like a champ!" My guess is that it was Glenn, as I hear it was in the comics. Could be Abraham, the way he and Negan looked at each other, and since he was making plans with Sasha. I guess it could be Daryl, but he is a huge fan favorite, and getting rid of him would piss off a lot of the ladies. Still, kind of a dick move to leave it hanging for six months.

Thought the same thing. Couldn't picture him firing live ammo in that setting. But still pretty funny.

Agreed! Writer Robert Kirkman said on The Talking Dead that there were some hints who it was. I guess I'm going to have to back and watch the scene again (if I can, because it was kind of painful to watch). It wasn't just the looming death, but seeing our crew so powerless and hopeless.

Sure seems like that's their plan. Nearly two months now since they were supposed to rule. No ruling, no accountability.

Hey, I thought Obama said that if you buy guns online there are no background checks involved? But seriously, I've made a number of purchases online recently and done the $20 transfer at GFH. I tried to support an LGS recently, when their price was only a little more than something I had looked at online. But by the time I paid a substantial fee for the NICS check and sales tax, it ended up being around $100 more than the online price. Not even to mention a nearly hour and a half round trip to them, vs. my 15 minute drive to GFH. Another example of the old adage about no good deed going unpunished.

I love the idea of this from a 2A perspective. But if they're selling guns around the clock, it sounds like it could be pretty dangerous financially!

My take on this is a little different. I've learned a lot about the way women think over my many years (but honestly, I still have a lot to learn). These women appeared to be engaged in testing their men to see how they would respond to a challenge. Most of the men did not handle it well. It seemed to me that the women were looking for reassurance that the men could protect them, and not endanger them with their guns. Take the woman who described guns as "scary death machines" She laughed as she was saying it, knowing that her description was somewhat absurd. She was looking for her man to put them into context, and he fumbled it. He could have either denied the premise, and pointed out that guns are used for shooting sports, recreational shooting, and hunting. Or, he could have accepted her premise, and asked her what she would do if she were confronted by attackers with those same "death machines." He could have pointed out that having one (or more) of them would allow him to keep them safe. The Second Amendment argument, while logically valid, is a loser against anti-gun people. They start rolling their eyes (as the woman did in the video), and talking about militias, asking if you think you have the right to own a nuclear weapon. Better is to point out that bad guys will always be around, and police will not always be. So owning a gun and knowing how to use it can be the difference between life and death. And for the woman who was concerned with a kid getting hold of a gun, the guy needed to strongly assure her that responsible gun owners keep their weapons in places that are inaccessible to children.

You son of a gun! For just a second I forgot today's date.

Thanks for posting that. I just ordered one. And while I have never needed one, it could come in handy if I ever get around to doing an Appleseed or something like that.

Probably because the range would not allow Chris to teach there anymore. I've been trying to twist his arm to come back to Jersey, but he says there is no place with adequate facilities for what he does that allows him access.

They will be taxing air as soon as they can!

Since no one can say where the next violent crime is going to occur, it's good to have some defense against it, at least whenever possible. And I can't tell you how much it infuriates me that the government in our home state believes that our lives are not worth defending.

Hey Iggy, why won't OBRPC let Chris Fry of MDTS training back there anymore? I've trained with him several of times, including a couple of classes there, but he has stopped teaching classes in Jersey because he can't find any facilities that will accommodate him.

Just to follow up, after learning that the class had been cancelled, I contacted Spartan Group and promptly received a full refund. So while communication may be less than stellar, I believe that Spartan Group and Cobra One Tactical are honest and reputable.

I had not seen your note until just now. I was signed up for Combat Rifle 2 this Sunday, 4/3, but when I inquired about the status of the class, I received that same information, that the instructor has been deployed, forcing a cancellation of all Spartan Group classes.

When the courts demand that we respond to something by a certain date, failure to comply on our part results in harsh penalties. On the other hand, they said they would have a response a month and a half ago, and the only sound I'm hearing is crickets. What an outrage!

As most of the others have noted, you can never go wrong doing the right thing.

Yes. I've been thinking that we need to get a foot in the door, or the camel's nose under the tent, as pundits are fond of saying. I was thinking that maybe they could introduce CCW permits with a high fee, so our legislators could see a revenue benefit from it. Then once they have agreed in principle, we could just work on getting them to reduce the fee. But this might be an even better approach.

Nice work Pizza Bob. I thought that was very well done. Please let us know if you get a response.

Interesting. I've never shot a crossbow, but I didn't envision them having much of a kick. Sad to see Denise go, especially since she did such a good job of patching up Carl. Now who's going to keep an eye out for him?

For those who have not done so, I would strongly urge you to read In the Gravest Extreme and Lethal Force by the esteemed Massad Ayoob. Both deal with when the use of deadly force is justified.

Amen to that! I like Nick's letter, and find it outrageous that the court has continued to just ignore his pleas.

Lol! Ah yes, common sense.
