While I applaud your well-worded and articulate email to Mr. Beever, his response sounds like a "canned" response to me. He probably consulted with his PR advisers and they provided him this text and told him to use it as a generic, ready-to-go response to any further emails regarding the...
One could argue that the "double-tap" or the "Mozambique" would fall under the same circumstances as what the Pharmacist did. After all, the first "tap" would have neutralized the threat (or "incapacitated him" as you stated). The second "tap" could be considered overkill and would be no worse...
Ideal world:
Pharmacist: "He was bleeding to death and was clearly in immense pain. I knew that an ambulance wouldn't arrive in time to save him. I shot him again in order to end his suffering. I wanted him to die in a humane fashion with little suffering. I shot him 5 more times so that I...
Every Taco Mac I've been to has this same sign on the door. Finally, I asked one of the managers why they don't allow firearms in their establishment. He responded that Taco Mac is considered a BAR first because the majority of their revenue comes from alcohol sales.
If that is the case, then...
Pharmacist: "Hey. What you in for?"
Cell mate: "Armed robbery and manslaughter."
Pharmacist: "How long is your sentence?"
Cell mate: "Well, it was gonna be a life sentence, but I made a plea deal. I turned in my co-conspirators and they lowered the charge from murder to manslaughter. I'll...
Right. This is the drill I practice at home in front of a mirror. As with anything else, you gotta practice. Not something that you think of in the moment, but something I thought out and have worked on ever since I started carrying.
Simplest solution:
Carry your gun at the 4-5 o'clock position IWB - you know, about the same location as the back pocket where you keep your wallet. Put your left hand forward in a defensive posture (most robbers won't think anything of it except that you're afraid for your life and trying to...
I like that the accomplice is being charged for the murder.
Fortunately, I doubt this kid will be tried as an adult IF he is charged. He'll do some community service and the shooting will disappear from his record when he turns 18. He's no doubt learned a valuable lesson. Too bad the castle law...
I read that is the case here in GA, that once you obtain a GA DL, you must obtain a GWL to carry legally. I guess I need to do more research of TX carry laws to see if it is the same there.
As most of you who will read this know, I am shipping out to Army Basic Combat Training in September.
I will be relocating my family back to Texas in a few months for a few reasons
1.) My wife and boys will have more of a support structure in place (lots of friends, plus my whole side of the...
sparked1 apparently is of the crowd that thinks that banning something will keep it out of the hands of criminals who don't give a crap about the law. If anything, the criminals own more "banned" weapons and accessories than law-abiding citizens, don't you think?
If the ban passes, we can all...
I believe I have a right to keep and bear arms...I'm pretty sure that's in the Constitution. So I'll cling to both, thanks. How would you react if someone told you that you're not allowed to speak negatively about the government?
We know there's that whole "freedom of speech" thing, but...
This country is not ruled by the majority. It is ruled by the fanatical ideals of the people elected by the majority. Poll after poll after poll showed that 70%+ of Americans of ALL political affiliations were AGAINST Obamacare before it was shoved down our throats. The constitution allows...
This isn't about security. Its about control. The liberal politicians want as much control over our lives as they can steal from us. This is the door to further regulation, which would eventually include the banning of all semi-automatic weapons and would even control things as finite as...
First off, thank you for your service!
My advice would be to also speak with your NG superiors. My understanding is that, if they don't have a carry permit, LEO's can only concealed-carry a weapon they have "qualified" with (in other words, they have tested and proved proficient with the...
"My client would like to enter a plea of 'Not Guilty' by reason of temporary insanity triggered by Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
(I imagine it would be pretty traumatic to see your wife bangin' another dude).
