Who goes out on Black Friday?
Damn!...and I thought I hated Black Friday...

Who goes out on Black Friday?
Thanks Rosey.... The wife and I prefer to spend the weekend with our civilized friends in the great white north where their day after Thanksgiving is largely spent with family,food,drink and sleep, not fighting some harried parent for the last inane video game so their Johnny can further withdraw from society for the next 3 months. I find it all so obscene and unnecessary.

Dash cams
I was actually thinking of getting one myself.Living in Monroe I encounter some of the most challenged drivers ever and a Dash Cam might prove to be useful in the event of a collision....which as days pass seems to be inevitable. I would want one that has an option to easily record with sound any interaction I may have with someone approaching the drivers side window also.

Who goes out on Black Friday?
Never. We have been driving to Montreal every black Friday for several years now to spend the weekend somewhere far from the base and embarrassing spectacle of fools lining up in the cold and dark to purchase more stuff they frequently don't need or can't afford. After many years in retail,even if our quarter depended of the sales on black Friday and beyond, no one likes working on that day and largely consider the rabid hoards of "shoppers" little more than cattle...more often than not... rightly so. My wife and I shop on line and skip the wholesale frenzy of the mall while not only enjoying most of the same savings but also the convenience of having it shipped to our door.

Don't think so ....I passed a plain White SUV stopping speeders on the TP just this weekend and there are at least a dozen parked at the State trooper barracks motor pool in Monroe

How is Brick Armory?
I too like SS.They recently upgraded their soundproofing,air filtration and HVAC as well as reorganized and re-merchandised their retail floor.Firearm selection both retail and rental is the most I've seen in the almost 4 years I've been shooting there and RO's are really on top of things in no small part due to the tragic incident several months ago. Kyle keeps up their web site,FB page and even answers any concerns on several review sites as well. I feel comfortable,safe and welcomed at SS but stay away on weekends.

Any Legal Issues with Kershaw OD-2 in NJ?
Considering there is potential "legal issues" with just about all pocket knives in NJ and NYC and how the specific laws are interpreted....I would say yes but INAL. However I frequently carry a number of Kershaws that are assisted and will continue to do so. I looked at OD-2 awhile back and almost pulled the trigger but after looking up some reviews on You Tube it struck me as being rather small and opted for the unassisted Chill instead and now on my second one.{I lose a lot of knives}

Considering moving to NC
Was that the winter where some towns basically shut down because no one had a show plow or even snow shovels?

Considering moving to NC
True story. We stopped at a TGIF somewhere in NC on the way down to Florida this summer,must have been 3 am. In the rest room I decided to ask a young employee filling the paper dispenser how far was it to the South Carolina border, he told me and I mentioned it had been awhile since I've driven this far south and unsure where I was, He asked if I was from Jersey....surprised I said I was and how did he guess. His answer....."these day just about everyone in the Carolina's is".

Recommend a revolver.
,,,,,Not entirely true, the 686 is a k frame .357,I have a slightly larger n frame 27-2 .357 and the wife loves shooting it even with hot loads.

Suicides in the news.
Recently I've read about one suicide after another in NJ. Recently at a gun range,the kid who killed not only himself but 2 others in a car crash, the jumper at Metro Park. and this morning on the GW bridge....... Perhaps I'm more attuned since the incident at SS several months ago but it would seem to me we have a rash of people offing themselves recently. The economy,PTSD,Government or just general ennui?

Best Ending, Almost
....but most of those armed "clerks" who don't have to answer to a corporate HQ are overwhelmingly owner/operators and tend to be very motivated because they do know the monetary cost of losing merchandise or a life.

Best Ending, Almost
That particular policy is pretty standard in large retail concerns and has little to do with past situations or even common sense in most cases but everything to do with liability and being sued. Just about all of these company has a new employee sign off on a long lists of do's and dont's with them "cooperating" fully with a robber even helping in order to quicken the act or lose their job. What the lawyers on retainer don't want is an errant shot from an employee hitting either another employee or worst yet a customer because the suit could possibly bankrupt a smaller retailer or seriously hurt the reputation of a larger. They would rather the insurance take care of the rest than go to court to answer a wrongful death suit.
