Re: UK: "Gun crime" goes up by 89% in a decade

Two comments: First - Andy, you don't really read those rags, do you? Or just for amusement? On a more serious, cynical note; I read a few months ago that in Chicago (my old home town) they started classifying murders as something else - like, "non-consensual death" or some weird euphemism...

Re: UK: "Gun crime" goes up by 89% in a decade

Hi Andy, Read the article, could not help but notice the two hands holding the pistol in the poster - looks like a CZ52 maybe? - one hand was black, the other brown, neither white. Are they implying that only people with African or Asian ancestors shoot each other, or what? The comments are telling,...

Re: Bowie knife?

Some years ago, my wife bought me a "baby" Ka-Bar knife. I won't carry it because it could be construed as appearing like a little-b "bowie" knife. 99 out of 100 LEOs might never even give it a second look, but I cannot take the chance of that 100th who indeed thinks it looks li...

Re: CZ 75

My daily carry is a CZ75B. It has lots of rounds through it and still prints better than I can hold. It is very reliable and sturdy. It gets good reviews for a number of reasons. One is that, compared to pistols of similar quality, capacity, and function, they used to be inexpensive. Not sure if tha...

suthdj, no I hadn't read the fine print at the bottom until you pointed it out. Had to copy the image, paste it in an image editing program and expand it, to even read most of it.

Re: Health Need: Constant migraine headaches

Personally, I believe it is related to eating grains and sugar. There are now thousands of published medical studies relating to the effects of grains and sugar on the metabolism, gut bacteria, and the affect on numerous brain-related disorders including migraines. It is literally as simple as chan...

Re: Health Need: Constant migraine headaches

Charles, this is a long shot but might be worth a try. I used to have cluster headaches - aka "suicide headaches" - that would wake me at ~3 AM every night for weeks at a time. Cluster headache is a "derivative" of migraine. Neurologist prescribed breathing pure oxygen at about 2...
