Sniper

So, you have a external motion activated siren that goes off every time the UPS guy or mailman (or the neighbor's dog) passes your car in the driveway? Who said it was a deterrent? Reading comprehension. Video is used to CATCH the dudes, and in the majority of the time, it IS repeat offenders in town.

But even in the case of a hoodie, if you have the video, 9 out of 10 times the cops will recognize them. They're usually repeat offenders or the cops have run into them before. Video evidence is way better than any audible alarm system.

Or, just use our newly approved Tasers on them!

That's what I would think too. Based on reports that illegals flood that area for work, I would guess they hire a lot more. One of the reports said that ICE actually pulled 70 people in for examination, but then only removed 30. So did that other 40 have really good forgeries and fraudulent docs? If it was ITAR, is it possible they were looking a certain parts of the manufacturing processes that they were exposed to? Like ICE wasn't worrying about floor sweepers, just machinists, etc?

That's what I was thinking, 10% snuck through, and weren't caught by HR, because they had some really good fake identity papers? Maybe?

On another board, a firearms manufacture said it was ITARS, having illegals involved in manufacturing.

What if the fake identity papers being turned in had S.S. numbers, birth dates and names that jived? How would the employers know they're hiring an illegal? That's the whole point of them paying for these fake identities, right?

OK, this whole story is getting weirder and weirder... First, here's a report of the actual flight.... What was he doing??? ...."Pastini's 414A Cessna took off from Fullerton Municipal Airport in Orange County 1:35 p.m. Sunday. According to the National Transportation Safety Board, radar showed he climbed to 7,800 feet before the aircraft rapidly descended. Witnesses said the aircraft was breaking up on the way down." https://www.recordcourier.com/news/ruhenstroth-man-identified-as-pilot-in-yorba-linda-crash/ Now the next weird thing: YORBA LINDA, Calif. (KABC) --A pilot was carrying credentials that falsely identified him as a retired Chicago police officer when his Cessna crashed into a Yorba Linda neighborhood Sunday, killing him and four others, authorities said. It was not immediately clear why the man, identified as 75-year-old Antonio Pastini, was in possession of the fake credentials. According to authorities, his other identification details and his Federal Aviation Administration pilot's license are still believed to be authentic. https://abc7.com/yorba-linda-plane-crash-pilots-false-credentials-idd-him-as-ex-chicago-police-officer/5121959/ And, here is another dash cam video. Look way out straight ahead, right above the tree line, and you'll see the plane explode in the air.

Another report has the plane breaking up and catching fire in the air. There's a dash cam video at this link:' Newly released video shows the moment a small plane burst into flames Sunday just before it crashed into a Southern California home, killing the pilot and four people on the ground. In dashcam video released Monday, the plane is seen already on fire as it falls from the sky towards the residential area. A trail of dark smoke and flames is visible before the aircraft crashes into the house. "The witnesses I've spoken with say that they saw the airplane coming out of the clouds — it was still in one piece — and then they saw the tail breaking off and then the wing breaking off and then something like smoke before the airplane impacted the ground," Maja Smith, an investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board, said Monday. https://www.foxnews.com/us/plane-seen-bursting-into-flames-before-crashing-into-southern-california-home

The owners might have just verified the papers given to them (even if fake). After all, they're not the FBI. Here's more: Carter wrote in a message on social media, “What I want Lee County residents to know is that this was not a random operation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Lee County, this was the result of an ongoing investigation by Immigration and Customs and isolated to one location.” Viridiana Martinez, a spokeswoman with Alerta Migratoria, told The News & Observer that the local Latino advocacy group has heard from people inside the factory who said the ICE agents were looking for specific people. At one point, Martinez said, 70 people were detained. Martinez said Sanford has long been a destination for immigrants because they can often find jobs with local businesses. https://www.newsobserver.com/news/state/north-carolina/article225554780.html

These Democrats just keep pushing, little by little. Their thought processes (or lack of) border on insane. A proposal by state Rep. Jillian Gilchrest, D-West Hartford, to impose a 50 percent tax on firearms ammunition has caught the attention of the National Rifle Association. In a video posted to her Twitter page, Gilchrest, who is serving her first term in the General Assembly, described the tax as a “prevention measure.” Ammunition in Connecticut is currently taxed at the normal sales tax rate of 6.35 percent. “We see this as a public health measure similar to what we’ve done in the state of Connecticut with increasing the tax on cigarettes,” Gilchrest said. “When we increase that tax we’ve seen a reduction in use. And so we want to continue Connecticut’s legacy of being a leader on preventing and addressing gun violence and we see this as another step forward in that direction.” https://www.courant.com/politics/capitol-watch/hc-pol-jillian-gilchrest-50-percent-ammo-tax-20190205-xm4tv6dq2zfbphirunnotk3yeq-story.html

That was one of the comments I read about the story, they're giving illegals access to internal information on gun manufacturing? Does sound strange. Just trying to get a jump on the liberal media... lol.. ha..

I'm sure, somehow, it just must be Trump's fault... Let me run over to CNN to find out.

I think you need to post a picture of yourself wearing yours in your boxers. That would be awesome! Just for educational reasons....

I always have a spare mag sitting next to what ever "tool" I need to grab. I can stick it in a back pocket, or even in my skivvies, if necessary. Hell, if I can't stop a threat with 30 rounds, oh wait, did I say that, I mean 20 rounds, well, I'm probably already dead at that point!

Well, that's going to leave a mark... Approximately 30 people were taken into custody by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at a manufacturing company in Sanford Tuesday morning. It happened at the Bear Creek Arsenal. The Lee County Sheriff's Office said it was the result of an ongoing investigation by ICE into identity theft and fraud. "He was like, 'yeah they took her and what they were doing is taking people to the breakroom, and if you didn't have valid ID, they were taking them out,'" he said. Bear Creek Arsenal said it is cooperating and added that "Homeland Security has confirmed that our Human Resource Department had complied with all laws, rules and regulations in our hiring practices." "It is unclear at this time if the local business was at fault," Sheriff Carter said in a news release. "What I want Lee County residents to know is that this was not a random operation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Lee County, this was the result of an ongoing investigation by Immigration and Customs and isolated to one location." https://abc11.com/30-people-taken-into-custody-by-ice-at-sanford-company/5122017/

The number one piece of home protection I have is my video security systems. It's been proven, more that once, that video evidence is the best way to catch these knuckleheads either during or after their fun. All the other layers of deterrence and protection comes after the video systems. I read the police blotter each week to see what's going on. I get a laugh after all the "car break-ins" reported. In just about EVERY case, there was no "break-in" because the owners just left the cars unlocked. All the thief had to do is open the door.. Even in the video in the OP, the thief was caught on camera walking up to the car door, it was locked, so he just walked away. First rule of defense, LOCK YOUR DOORS!!! (on your car and house).

Joking... no, just qualifying... I'd doubt a "pro" would try to break in and rob you if he knew you were home, unless he had a vendetta. A "tweaker" on the other hand, just needs a quick smash and grab, and doesn't normally use common sense, so in their case, they would be more likely to run into a armed homeowner at the wrong time. I treat ANYONE coming in uninvited as a threat. Even my kids know not to stop in unannounced or surprise me without warning. That's why it's my dog's job to be the first welcoming committee. The second welcoming committee (me) won't be as nice!

But, it just could be your drunk neighbor stumbling into the wrong house at 2 AM through your locked and dead bolted doors and activated alarm system. You just can't assume that it's a bad guy in that instance, right?

There also was the one in Holmdel in December, and they did take his guns.

That is my primary reason for home defense. Not the pros.

Just make sure you have a weapon light. That's the only way to do H.D. (so I'm told).

What about this?

No. Your best answer will come from either the CO inspector or the Fire inspector, depending who your town sends out. Towns determine on their own what they want, similar to how police departments decide what paperwork they want for FIDs.

I wonder if he had a weapon light on that AK?
