Re: Don't Fund It

Disappointed that John Cornyn has ? on the "Pledged to Oppose 2014 Funding" column. There should be a "Pledged" on the column.

Sacramento, CA --(Ammoland.com)- Apparently, Attorney General (AG) Kamala Harris has changed California State Department of Justice policy and is now limiting federal law enforcement agents’ ability to acquire handguns. The AG says the feds can only buy firearms listed on the Roster of Handguns Cer...

The Fading 40

I see regular news stories, some dating back several years, documenting the switch back to 9mm by PD’s nationwide. The reasons given for the switch to 9mm vary, but most PD’s feel the .40 S&W lowers hit probability and are concerned with the reduction in capacity. Back in 2011 the Wichita (KS) ...

Another Solution in Search of a Problem

Ford Motor Co. has a new surveillance system for police cars that automatically sounds a chime, locks the doors and puts up the windows if it detects someone approaching the car from behind. The system — which Ford is patenting — is the first of its kind. What happens if the officer leaves the car ...

Re: Galveston: Open-carry long-gun non-event

I understand and support the right to bear arms, but what I sometimes wonder is why some people (maybe this guy) do it for a show and to cause a scene. This guy was completely within his rights and the law to carry the rifle openly, but the reality is that a lot of people freak out when they see pe...

Appeals court: NYC's big-soda ban unconstitutional

An appeals court ruled Tuesday that the city's Board of Health exceeded its legal authority and acted unconstitutionally when it tried to put a size limit on soft drinks served in city restaurants. A slap in the face for Bloomie. :cheers2: http://mynorthwest.com/19/2324402/Appeals-court-NYCs-bigsod...

Re: FL: LEO Shoots Man Rummaging in Car Late Night

I often times remember something I've left in my truck or am just plain looking for something that might have been left in my truck after dark, but never at 0300. It's going to be interesting how this plays out. I wonder which neighbor it was that called and what they were doing up at 0300. What I ...

Re: Clarifying how to 'undo' your CHL for the moment.

But if you're stopped, likely your CHL will show up. Failure to disclose it, while not a crime, may have other consequences. Technically, it certainly is still a "crime," in that the code still mandates the presentation of our CHL when asked for identification by law enforcement. I think ...
