Re: TX: a good start discovered in Georgetown

Has anyone realized that the amount of ammo is interesting but it is not illegal? It is not illegal even if the person is also carrying drugs. I am very curious about the fact that the Sheriff is making it sound like a big bust but the ammo is 100 percent legal to have and carry. I don't have 50BMG...

Re: Wearing a mask while LTC

I took care of that. Born, raised, married, divorced, married again in Fort Worth. Had enough had to leave before I could retire. Much happier in Parker County. Dropped 900sqft and a set of stairs, lost a Mayor that wants to be Dallas West cut my taxes and utilities. I don’t need to go into Tarrant ...

Re: Church shooting in Tarrant County - White Settlement

I know from Jacks classes that that the first guy shot must have gotten complacent since their security team had been in place for about 10 years. I normally try to not have to go through multiple layers of cloth to reach my carry weapon. He had to go under a sport coat and a shirt tail both drawing...

Re: TX: Insane truck crash video in Lubbock Co.

Man that Flir system is pricey List is close to $3400 street prices about $2500. A couple of others from $500-$1500. I’ve got a Flir camera for work and that IS their primary business so I know their technology and quality is above par.

Re: Church shooting in Tarrant County - White Settlement

Glad the church had a active security team on hand. The WSCC is just north of an area of Fort Wirth that has been allowed to become a very rough area. In the late 60’s early 70’s there were a number of large apartment complexes and townhouses built with high-end rent rates. All those apartments are ...

Re: MO: Woman killed by stray bullet, area bans artists and food trucks

Makes perfect sense, remove potential victims and no more problems. :banghead: Just expand it to ban all law abiding citizens from legal activities from the streets.

Re: TX: Woman shoots robber trying to grab purse
