"Felony" sign

Last night, I attended a banquet held in a Texas Motor Speedway building. There will be Indy car racing there Saturday and Sunday but my event was unrelated. I thought that I took a picture of the sign but I was being reused past the entrance by an attendant and the picture apparently didn't actuall...

Re: Lewisville Pawn Shop Murder on Valentine's Day

Lewisville has more of a crime exposure than many realize. Being along I-35, criminals can drive in, commit robbery and murder and be back on the freeway before police can arrive. Parts of the town are known hang-outs for drugs and those always attract crime. People used to laugh at me for refusing ...

Re: Gun Control Laws Backfiring in California

We are past the point where any logical argument or set of facts, no matter how clear and well presented, is going to change anything on any subject that the Gavin Newsome's of the world pick. It wouldn't batter if there were a mass shooting every week in every California city. The agenda is the age...

Re: War with Russia

Explain again why the US government and its NATO puppets are working so hard on kicking off WW3 over Ukraine and what the benefits are to the American people? The Russians are justifiably unhappy at the prospect of German tanks rolling across Ukraine towards Russia. The US military industrial compl...

Re: El Paso Walmart Shooting

Last year, a Texas judge put off a state trial in the case as federal prosecutors determined whether they would seek capital punishment. This should have been a State trial, not a local one. This "hate crime" ploy is just another method of Federal overreach. Double jeopardy is basic right...

Re: Kenosha Wisconsin Shooter discussion

They deleted or had my comment on FB removed. It wasn't a threat in any way. The other social media I saw for them had comments turned off so I don't know who they are getting threats from. I have never been a fan of boycotts, but I'm think more and more that gun owners need to somehow organize to ...

Re: Woman killed by FT Worth PD officer

I'll say again that I'm a supporter of the police. I am. I mean it. But I hold no hope at all that the FWPD leadership will learn anything from this incident. Am I happy that the officer was sent to jail for more than 10 years? Absolutely not. I believe that the verdict further assures a chasm betwe...

Re: house speaker fiasco

The fix has been in on this from the get-go. Pelosi's seat didn't have a chance to grow cold before McCarthy was already occupying it (literally). Notice that the usual political and media suspects aren't griping about McCarthy himself, but about the process of getting him in. That tells you all yo...

Re: 2023 Legislative Session

I hope this post will grow. Those of us out in "the sticks" don't always get much news about pending legislation. I have connections with several people on daily battle front. One is a very active Republican State Executive Committee representative from my area who is also a personal frie...

Re: house speaker fiasco

Re: TX: arrested for unlawful carrying way up since constitutional carry

“It’s not clear why convictions for unlawfully carrying a weapon have risen so sharply.” Probably since [at least in Fort Worth] majority of businesses have the unlicensed carry is unlawful/felony warning sign. But alas IANAL. My question remains: is the old sign published by the Texas Alcoholic Be...

Re: Woman killed by FT Worth PD officer

I watched part of the Andrew Branca analysis of the closing arguments to this trial. I trust his judgement that the prosecution's approach was pure emotion and not founded in the actual laws and that the defense did an extremely poor job in letting the prosecution get away with what they did. It was...

Re: Woman killed by FT Worth PD officer

What's the mixed feeling? Both were testified to and both were supported by the fact pattern. The problem a lot of people have is she wasn't a bad guy. There weren't any "bad guys" in this instant. Sadly, that happens regularly. The facts, including Dean's testimony would back up her just...
