Cops shoot (and Kill) window smasher in Cali (With Video)
Or the bean bag/OC would have done the same thing the taser did and just piss him off... It is irrelevant, idiot acted like he was going to swing something big and heavy at a another person, bad idea. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

FID & PP Card Township Paperwork Requirements
As promised, the form CHPD mailed my father. While other people living at my house certainly do have the right to object to firearms, they DO NOT have the right to object to me obtaining a FID...

Cops shoot (and Kill) window smasher in Cali (With Video)
I don't like to armchair general, but the first 5 are definately good. Can't see the bad guy during the second 5, so no even going to make a guess on that one. Either way I doubt they would have made that much of a difference as to whether he lived or not.

Squirrel Problem
Mine don't, they have wheels . Then again they had handles too... one landing in winter on the handle will take care of that though, most only have 1 handle now. They are full of holes from the damned tree rats and racoons/opossums/who knows what else though.

Squirrel Problem
The only problem with metal cans is that the garbage men seem to think that trash cans are beach balls or something and they end up all dented from being thrown 10 feet from the truck to the curb instead of placed back where they were taken from...

Not sure where you got the equal force either. So long as the bad guy is in your house and you reasonably beleive that he intends to harm you/your family, you can respond with anything up to and including lethal force.

Liquor
Am a fan of Scotch, unfortunately it's more expensive, but a bottle usually lasts me a good while. As for the vodka + redbulll, NEVER add Jager to the mix, did that one time, never, ever ever again.

SCOTUS Gets One Right.
Not only can it not be used it court, any evidence that is even remotely related to the GPS data wouldn't be admissible either.

Widow Sues Officer Who Shot Her Gun Wielding Husband
Aren't statements made in court filings done so under oath? If saying shooting someone pointing a gun at you is “unprovoked assault and battery,” and “was without justification and was committed negligently and/or intentionally, wantonly, and with malicious motive and intent,” when it was ruled a justified use of force by a Grand Jury isn't perjury, I don't know what is. The lawyers and the plaintiffs should face perjury charges, and the lawyers should be disbarred...

Sayreville strip club out, Gun shops next ?
Porn, compared to firearms, is pretty much settled law in the federal courts. Hell, it goes all the way back to 1973 at least where the US Supreme Court ruled that porn is protected speech so long as it isn't "obscene." Based on what SCOTUS has ruled as recently as 2010 is not obscene, there is no way they would declare a strip club to be obscene, so it would be protected speech. Also, you have to consider that guns are "different" when it comes to politics. Liberals hate giving you rights when it comes to guns, but they love giving you rights when it comes to speech. I would be more worried about a conservative court saying that porn isn't protected than a liberal court.

Sayreville strip club out, Gun shops next ?
All they have to do is fight it federally, not in state court. If a federal judge agrees that it is protected speech, which they will, club wins. Federal courts have already said that rights cannot be restricted based on geography, multiple times, the most recent being in the firing range case in Chicago.

NJ supreme court ruling on adult stores
Yes and no. The NJ Supreme Court ruled on it, so this case in particular is over. However, if the case is modified to reflect federal law and not state law, it can be filed in Federal court, where, assuming the judges agree that adult clubs/stores/whatever fall under protected speech (which they have in the past, with some limitations), the adult industry will win, since many many circuit courts have ruled that municipalities cannot outlaw a constitutional right because it can be exercised elsewhere.

NYPD, Feds Testing Gun-Scanning Technology
Sorry, but you are not travelling on public anything when you fly. You are in a private vehicle while you are on the aircraft, and in 99% of the time you are on private property the moment you step onto the airport grounds. The airlines and airport owners have every right to impose (almost) any requirement they wish. However, I will agree that it should not be a federal agency responsible for security at private business ventures, and we should especially not be subject to regulations not passed by any of our elected representatives, yet still have the authority and consequences of law.

New Ruger SR22
Ah, didn't realize you were talking about the magazine disconnect. On a .22 I wouldn't think there would be much risk in accidentally engaging the safety, since very few people are likely to use it for protection. Would a proper holster not protect the safety while the gun is holstered and while it is being drawn though? As far as the magazine disconnect, I don't think I've seen any newer .22lr semi-auto without one. The P22, M&P 22, SR22 I know have them, though I don't think the Mosquito does. Now that I've submitted everything for my FID and P2P, I need to start deciding what I need and what I want...

New Ruger SR22
then just leave it on fire and forget about it. Assuming its a double action. No different than a glock or anything else with the hammer down and saftey off.

Wikipedia Blackout
As many of you know, Wikipedia is conducting a 24 hour blackout from 12:00AM 1/18 to 12:00 AM 1/19 to draw attention to SOPA/PIPA. If you want to access Wikipedia today, just disable javascript and it will work fine. If you use Firefox, I would reccommend NoScript, it lets you give temporary permissions, permanent permissions, and revoke permissions, and it's nice to have for general web browsing.

Electronic Pickpocketing
And this is why I'm glad most people in the US use the "obsolete" magnetic stripe. Europe is predominantly chip & pin, and you can't use a magnetic stripe card in many places now, but there are risks. I know there is nothing in my wallet that has an RFID chip.

New Ruger SR22
Curious as to why you think it will be a fail when the P22 market is significant and the SR22 is getting very positive reviews.

If obama wins 2nd term, what would you do?
The federal government is a lot better at respecting our rights than most of the states are. Until 1868 the Bill of Rights didn't apply to the states at all, NJ could have just banned all civilian ownership of guns, established a state religion, or pretty much whatever they wanted so long as it was intra-state only.

If obama wins 2nd term, what would you do?
No, I missed the response in the other thread before it was moved. I was wondering where that thread went. Although sec 1021 doesn't specifically exempt US citizens, it does say that it does not grant any addtional powers to detain. Since the Constitution says that you cannot detain a US citizen without a trial...
