I am glad to see that they were held accountable for their actions. In the end this is what should happen. I do not believe that police officers should have to carry insurance. However, we should hold officers accountable for their actions. I live near Chicago and the city has paid hundreds...
I am a supporter of LEO's. I tend to give them the benefit of the doubt, because they are placed in tough situations every day. But I do find this article an example of a couple of officers out of control. These two should not be wearing a badge.
Situation - three armed men, restaurant full of innocents, and one armed civilian (me). As long as the situation does not escalate the choice is to comply. If all they do is take my money or belongings I will comply. My stuff is replaceable. There being a room full of innocent people and...
0I have a shield with the safety. I am not a big fan of it, but it was all that was available at the time. I like the gun, and it is my primary carry. The wife tells me it has the lightest recoil of all my 9mm pistols. I think you can not go wrong with either one.
I was telling my wife last night that I have a couple I would be willing to let go for a $100 gift card. I have a single shot 12 ga shotgun that is not even worth $25, so why not trade it for $100. Play them at their own game - turn in guns that are not worth crap and make some money and let...
Hopefully he does run and he can not Hillary out again. We need another candidate that has more appeal than her. She needs to go to pasture along with her boy toy Bill.
I like the automatics for the round capacity but I like the price point on this pistol. I will have to look further into this one. I have always been a fan of revolvers as it was my first pistol. I like them for their compactness and ability to conceal.
Hear - hear. My thoughts exactly. People acting stupid with guns will give the anti-gunners more ammunition against 2A rights. Especially now that we are in the election season with Hillary fat mouth pandering to the liberals.
Agreed - people should be held accountable for their actions. I am a firm believer in that. However, when people act stupid with guns, it reflects negatively on all of us. We do not need to give the anti-gunners any more ammunition to push their agenda.
I have to believe this action is not a reflection on the company as a whole. Rather it reflects the uninformed decisions that employees make either because they were not properly trained to begin with or they are putting their own personal beliefs into their work irrelevant of company policies...
This is an example of why people need training - when to get involved and when not to. Bad decision on the part of the CCL holder. These are the examples that we all need to hear about and learn from.
From what I can tell it seems it may be similar in some ways to the Navy FC rating. From what I saw it seems that it would have some transfer-ability in the civilian world.
I had to read every post in this topic. It was too interesting not to. I saved some links that were posted to some training that is out there. I have concluded that there is two forms of training that I am looking to take. One is a pistol training class. This class will cover stance, hold...
I do not know the Indiana statutes for carrying in a police station. There is several interesting replies to this thread. I think that if I knew several of the LEO's in the station I may feel somewhat comfortable with entering the station while armed if in fact it is ok. Other than this...
Another reason to stay out of New Jersey. Stupid gun laws that good citizens get caught up in, and Governor Christie. I will not enter the state of New Jersey. There is nothing there I want to see, or be a part of.
I have to agree with you. Be careful what you wish for. The only way government functions and accomplishes anything is through compromise. Without compromise nothing gets accomplished as is evidenced over the last 6 years. I was not a Boehner fan, but who is going to step into that position...
Thank you for the post. I am still considering what to carry. I have both a compact and subcompact 9mm. I read many different arguments over the need to have a hi capacity weapon versus a compact and those that do not think it is that important. I have struggled with this. I think in the...
