Re: How Do You Secure Your Firearms
I found a great program called Formbook. It works across all of my devices. It’s a database where you can put your own fields and add photos. If you have it on your phone you can take photos within the app. If anything ever happens to any of my firearms I’ve got serial numbers, prices, pictures, et...

Re: No gun signs and my place of worship
Here are a couple of links which may be helpful resources in developing some scriptural arguments against the signs and the underlying policies:

Re: Please pray for Kevin Tam's family
I am sorry to hear this sad news. If there is an auction for his firearms, as an FFL dealer I can attand the auction if allowed. BTW,In Texas, If there is no will, the next of the kin would not be the estate of the deceased? I think in Texas, without a will or a spouse, everything goes to the state...

Re: Cheap ($9.99) pelican style cases at Harbor Freight
Although the price is nice, I would probably choose to buy similar cases from Pelican or Plano. Although those would be more expensive, they are made in the USA. According to the tag on the pictures posted, the Harbor Freight cases are made in China. I am trying to wean myself away from products mad...

Re: 36% interest?!?!?!
WARNING: I may very well be wrong because it sounds ridiculous to me that a 26 week t-bill would pay 16%. There is no way I thought it was that high. Steve, you are misreading the decimal point on the 26 week t-bill rates. The current rates are not in the 16% to 19% range, but they are instead in t...

Re: 36% interest?!?!?!
Texas used to have usury laws. If I remember correctly, the Republicans took over the govt after a long absence a while back and I think that was the first thing that was passed, repealing usury laws. The applicable usury law is usually determined under the state law applicable to a contract, which...

Re: The Stolen Election, Part One: AMERICAN PRAVDA
Yeah, now we don't have to worry about the "wrong people" voting. If by "wrong people" you mean ineligible voters, then, yeah. No, I mean people of color. If you believe there was sufficient fraud to change the election, then you have been drinking the Republican kool-aid. I am ...

Need someone to appraise firearms in Austin area
My wife’s brother in law died unexpectedly about a week ago, and my wife’s sister needs someone to provide estimated values for each of the firearms in his inventory. His holdings include handguns, rifles, and shotguns acquired over the years. He was not a collector, as such; he just liked guns. I d...

Re: Allen West resigns as chair of Texas Republican Party
Allen west violated military code/laws and an Iraqi in a war zone to protect his men. Abbott violated everyone's rights during his Covid reign as King of Texas. I don't have an informed opinion about Allen West as a gubernatorial candidate. However, when asked for his reasons for running for govern...

OCC Proposed Rule in Federal Register - Fair Access to Financial Services
The attack on our Second Amendment rights can come from many directions. One of the ways is through coordinated efforts to put pressure on banks and other financial institutions to deny financial services to firearms-related businesses, such as manufacturers and retailers of firearms and ammunition ...

Re: Restriction of rights and left/liberalism versus right/conservatism.
I believe it is the case jurists break down rights into two categories, positive and negative. Some Positive Rights: Free Housing Free Higher Education Free Health Care Some Negative Rights: Freedom of Speech Freedom to Bear Arms Freedom to Remain Silent You get to choose. Free stuff or Freedom. Ch...

Re: Corona Virus (COVID-19)( SARS-CoV-2) from China: Its going to be bad.
In the US 5.4% of the people who contract Covid-19 die. 253,458 deaths / (253,458 deaths+4,410,709 recoveries) = .054 x 100 = 5.4% The problem with your calculation is that total cases confirmed actually exceed the sum of the deaths and recoveries. There are many confirmed cases for which the patie...

Re: oh I like her!!!
Is it wrong to want to donate to her campaign? Coming from someone who's never donated to a campaign. She is so on point. It is not wrong to contribute to candidates who support positions you agree with. And as far as I know, there is nothing illegal or wrong about contributing money to the campaig...
