    Of course I don't have a proposed bill because none has been entered. My point is that this case is garnering attention with state level lawmakers and I'm sure any others pending will only add fuel. Too much noise and I am afraid they will take action. It may not be right and it may not be proper but I fear it could come about. As more and more incidents happen, the sheeple, law enforcement, local and state governments will say enough is enough. Just outlaw oc and the problem is solved from their perspective. Will it happen? Maybe, Maybe not but people are watching. It will be quite the chess game. Just because it hasn't happened doesnt mean it wont!

    Ummmm....
    Politicians in this state that bring that up, tend to have short political careers. And I think they know it.

    Hard Target Firearms has a severe dislike for OC and people with guns in general it seems. (Not only that, but when I was a police officer and I saw a man with a gun exposed I pulled my gun and then gave commands.) While reading his FB post he seems to be just as biased as the papers article as well and believes that the only side of the story that could possibly be correct is the officers side.

    I remember when HardToTarget first became an advertiser on here they created quite a stir. I got a sour taste in my mouth then, and it isn't getting any sweeter.

    If he had been a lunatic you would be thanking them."

    Love this quote from one of the people on the C&P article. I wonder if it has ever been successfully used as a legal defense?

    I doubt it, and like someone said on the Facebook page. "What would you do if you saw a man open carrying a gun at the zoo? And what would the children do if they saw that?" Full on retard up on that Facebook page. I'm so glad I don't live in Evansville. It seems a lot of people at their police department seem to think anyone open carrying a gun is an idiot, as I have been called.

    I noticed that you were pinned with that label a couple of times. I have refrained up to a point from getting in the mix with these irrational haters but have recently contributed a couple of rebuttal posts on HTF's f/b page.

    It has its ups and downs, particularly with teh police. If I were a criminal, I would feel pretty safe. If I lived a couple of doors down from a criminal, I would be worried about getting my door kicked in by the SWAT team.

    Yep... Where over loaded with a bunch of tree hugging, anti-gun owning flower children from the 60's down here. :dunno:

    Two or three people that work for or have worked for EPD have called myself and TF an idiot for OCing. The owner of the Facebook used to be EPD, allegedly, and said that he would have arrested TF and is proud that he pulled his gun on someone for OCing once. Just calling them as I see them. I know they aren't all like that, but I've had interactions with 2 or 3 who have all said the same thing.
