Re: Employer Wants To Know About Firearms/CHL

In the quest to "care for our employees" my employer is forcing everyone to electronically submit "Medical History" and "Domestic Assessment" surveys consisting of the following areas:

What really gets me is some of the questions on the "Domestic Assessment"

"Do you own or have access to firearms ...

Re: Flying with checked pistol

I have flown on Southwest twice recently with a locked pelican case inside a suitcase. Put TSA locks on the suitcase & both times when I arrived at destination, the TSA lock is missing. Everything else is still in the bag. Not sure why they take my locks, but if it happens again I will be asking ...

Re: KSAT news article Target stores

I should have included a link, thanx Keith.

I posted cause I thought it was typical ignorant reporter, stating that in Texas - it is against the law to carry a weapon into an establishment (retail or bar) that sells alcohol. Period. That is way incorrect...Kieth's link has comments that were not ...

Re: What's a good price on a used LCP or LC9?

I just paid $250 for a Coyote Special in almost unused condition just 2 weeks ago. It had original box, papers and lock. It is the only LCP that I was really interested in because I am not a fan of the .380 round. As it works out, someone in the family had a need for a VERY concealable handgun at ...

Re: We are doomed when a cat can hold a family hostage.

I like cats and have had a couple of really cool ones. Any animal that is going to live in your home and be a part of your family needs training. These guys obviously don't know how to deal with the cat, have not set rules, and need to give the cat to a better home.

Re: Cato Institute Defensive Gun Use Map

Pratt on Texas is a local radio show in Lubbock. He keeps up with stories from Texas where people use self defense against criminals.

He calls it the Anti-Wimp update. Here is a link. Someone should clue in Cato about his page & the NRA page.
