Re: Full List of Congressional Republicans Funded by Bill Gates
While I'm not happy about that, I will not let it stop me from going to vote Republican, AGAINST THE DEMOCRATS, this Election Day. Not one actual Republican (not people like Cheney or Kinzinger, aka RINOs) that I can vote for has said they want to shut off oil production, or leave the border open, o...

Re: Officer involved shooting in Seminole Texas.
Another "immigrant who made our country better by doing a job an American wouldn't do"? I mean, that is how the Democrat Party and their mass news media pals tend to label all these violent crimes. Good job by all involved to capture the suspect. I hope that police officer has a speedy and...

Re: After Supreme Court ruling, it's open season on US gun laws
Hypothetical question. If the US government decides it's a good idea to follow Australia's lead and ban guns, at what point do citizens use their guns to shut that nonsense down? I think the real question is "what percentage of US citizens will actively resist". My guess is that it will b...

Re: US Army's Recruiting Crisis Worsens As Test Scores Drop, Disqualifications Rates Surge
I’ve said it before,and I’ll say it again… It is highly likely that if we get into a war with a near-peer opponent in the not too distant future, we’re going to have our butts handed to us. :iagree: We hardly have an industrial base any more. Our public "education" centers are turning out...

Re: Economy saved, potential railroad strike averted
The union won and now they get a guaranteed pay increase of 25% over 5 years and $1000 bonus each year among other stuff. Anyone of us getting guaranteed pay increases of 5% each year or any bonuses at all? I work for the USAF as a Civil Service aircraft mechanic and avionics systems technician. I ...

Re: Hate Crimes
This is the video that should be shown when any anti-self-defense type starts in with that "just comply with the robber's demands, and you won't get hurt". And it is a great example of why the benefit of the doubt should ALWAYS go to the person who didn't initiate the violence. But no, our...

Re: Mesquite Man Arrested After Pulling Gun
I have two thoughts on this. The first one, as most have said, is that the incident should never have occurred in the first place. NEVER pull over and get into an altercation like that. Always make every effort to disengage and depart the situation. Second thought, though, is that despite Hollyweird...

Re: UMd researchers promote gun safety for gangbangers...
The instant I see the phrase "structural racism" in anything, I immediately dismiss whatever they have to say. I consider that phrase one of the tools of neo-marxism, and as such, used to further the political goals of hard-leftists. The entire "study" then becomes nothing more t...

Re: Is a grand jury required after a shooting?
Okay, "SOP" was mentioned. However, I am looking for something written in Texas law that says a grand jury MUST be impaneled, no ifs, ands, or buts, in the case of someone being shot and killed. Because if Texas law does NOT say that, then indeed it is up to the DA (or equivalent) to dema...

Is a grand jury required after a shooting?
Is it Texas law that a grand jury MUST be impaneled after a defensive shooting has occurred, even if the defensive shooting took place within someone's home? If someone knows this answer, can they please direct me to the appropriate part of Texas Penal Code which states this? Thank you all.
