Re: Has a good guy ever stopped a mass shooting?
12 Times Mass Shootings Were Stopped by Good Guys With Guns Yes. Nice work! From memory, Jeanne Assam reported a horrible feeling of intense evil (paraphrasing) which filled the hallway where she would confront the shooter. Most 'shooters' commit suicide when they are done... just like Judas Iscari...

Re: Paybacks are a pain
VA GOP May Strip McAuliffe Of His Protective Detail Over Concealed Carry This is too funny. Since the AG removed reciprocity, the legislature has decided to remove his authority to decide reciprocity. And since the Governor is so anti-gun, they're also thinking about removing his protection detail....

Texas Open Carry HB 910 is now Law as of June 13, 2015
So I've been checking this forum for announcements and topics indicating that the Texas Open Carry Law has passed. It seems as if I haven't checked enough, because I've seen nothing of note regarding the topic. http://www.ktxs.com/news/special-report-open-carry-in-texas/33958100" onclick="...

Re: Attack at event that may also come to TX.
Discussing Islam as "just another religion" is proof that those who say that have never taken the time to devote real study to the issue. Islam is not "just a religion" it is a way of life. It is law, diet, relationships, entertainment - literally every facet of life from most i...

Re: CITY: 2 GUNMEN KILLED OUTSIDE MUHAMMAD CARTOON CONTEST
Apathy? It is difficult to convince Christians to stand up for themselves. As long as it doesn't happen to them personally, no one even notices. I wouldn't call it apathy, per se. There are complex reasons for why this is so. One reason is that no less a person than Jesus tells us to respond charit...

Re: CITY: 2 GUNMEN KILLED OUTSIDE MUHAMMAD CARTOON CONTEST
I would also argue that stopping an event from being held just because it might anger some people is a direct assault of our very Constitution and a very slippery slope of state censorship. Once that starts, you're not far from NK, China, Etc. :iagree: I heard Trump on Fox this morning (I was too f...

Re: Liar
Many of the 10 Commandments require a death penalty, including the 9th, bearing false witness.
Due process would be upheld, but quick.
But hey, since Jesus isn't here yet (see Luke 19:27 for something interesting), I'd be happy if she was at least put in jail.
I won't hold my breath.

Re: Guns are like Climate change...
Not to quibble strat9mm...but water actually expands as it freezes, so when it melts it will displace less than the same volume as water than it had as ice. I know. Conversely, as you indicated, water freezes into ice, the ice takes up just a bit more volume than it did as water. That's what causes...

Quote: When conducting solid analysis (not cherry-picking convenient years), there has been about 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit warming since 1880, and about two-thirds of that was in the last forty years.

With the minimal class time required now, I really don't see the point. 30 days should be more than enough. Slow-tracking those who are already licensed is just that, slow-tracking those who are already licensed. And on thinking about this even more, I don't think there should be any delay at all i...

By the way, you guessed wrong. Bad guy with knife would have either left, picked another store, or not killed anyone on that particular day, or got shot for his troubles. Your logic assumes bad guy with knife, in full view of an armed police officer, would still maim, injure and kill. Your logic, is...
