Yeah. It always comes back to the user in the end, doesn't it?

You're probably right. I am pretty sure deputies around the great state of Texas would understand. "werewolves? Oh, yeah, we got couple of them crawling around here.." Another problem is that if, let's say I did open fire within my home, would I still be protected under Cattle Doctrine or ...

I'm a ham radio operator (yes, another one). It's my callsign.

Marshall still has them.

I took the class on Saturday, 11/17.
I dropped the packet off at the Post Office last night after work. My instructor said not to expect to see anything in the mail until close to the end of January. We'll see.
