Re: Austin Panhandlers
I enjoy the panhandlers because of their personalities. I have given leftover food before whenever I don't want it (It was two leftover wings from Pluckers, and I gave it to a talented violinist.) Usually if they ask me for money, I'll offer to smoke a cigarette with them, and they usually say yes. ...

Re: Dallas Weekend

I wonder how much IWB carry adds to your waist size. :biggrinjester: There was no reason for this post just wanted to post. Bahaha I was wondering about halfway through what it was about. I thought it...

Re: State Sovereignty and Free Firearms Acts
Hmmm . . . what if a state passed a law saying that all adult US citizens residing in a state and of sound mind and no criminal record were eligible to volunteer to be members of the State Militia, said state militia members being expected to obtain at reasonable cost and maintain in good working o...
Re: Repo men
I figured the actual business isn't as shady as TV would want me to believe. It makes for good entertainment, though. It's not "your" car until you complete the terms of the loan. That's a good point; I hadn't thought of that. I doubt there are very many people that would be unaware if the...
Re: Repo men
Operation Repo is staged? :shock: I really like that show... But yeah, you have a right to defend with lethal force if you have reasonable belief that he/she is a thief. I'd say taking someone's car at night without knocking at their door would be pretty sketchy, and I'd have no remorse for killing ...

Re: State Sovereignty and Free Firearms Acts
I wonder how this would differ from other paramilitary civilian organizations, such as Xe Services (Blackwater). They have FA firearms, and, despite my researching, I haven't been able to find anything regarding whether they pay the $200 tax or if they have an exemption. They were prosecuted for ar...

Re: Stars games , are they posted??
American Airlines Center reserves the right to confiscate any prohibited items and/or escort the guest from the building. Is anyone else bothered that they consider it a "right" to confiscate your cameras and such that are not illegal, but simply against the rules? AA Center apparently be...

Re: Guns OK in Students Cars
A friend of mine in high school always parked at the city park across the street from the school, as many students that smoked did. They had cigarettes legally (being 18), but they couldn't have them on school grounds. One day, the dogs came and flagged his car on a rare day that he parked on school...

Re: “knife control”
I carry a knife with me everywhere. There are some places that, to avoid trouble, I unclip it from my jean pocket and put it inside, out of site, but usually it's clipped right there. I use it for random tasks at least every other day. It's great to open dip cans, cut strings off clothes, open stupi...

Re: Open Shotgun Carry in Austin
I'm sorry I haven't been on here in awhile. I had a lot of work to do for this coming week, and I hadn't had time to come on here. I am extremely impulsive and come up with on-the-fly ideas that, at the time, I really want to go through with. I've learned to live with it. I make myself wait a couple...

EDIT: Also, you never know when you'll get a nicotine craving. Carry 24/7 or guess right.

Re: Uh Oh, looks like this could lead to a Smoking ban
I like this. It goes with the post earlier saying to change smoking to guns in Kawabuggy's post. It really puts things in a different light.Abraham wrote:Why would anyone want to shoot or own guns?
I just don't get it.
EDIT: deleted redundant "earlier" in sentence 2.
