Re: Enhanced CHL

Special privileges like your so called enhanced CHL are the mark of tyrannical states. I disagree. Their restrictions on the general public are the true signs. Whether or not they grant special privileges to a special few, they are tyrannical states or not because of their actions regarding the hum...

Re: Why exactly does Texas not have open carry?

Given the state's otherwise pro-gun climate and the fact that many more anti states allow open carry (at least in theory), it makes no sense at all that Texas forbids it. I agree it makes no sense if you believe what politicians say instead of watching what they do. The sad fact is we don't have op...

Re: State Police in Texas?

I think any LEO who is employed by the State of Texas is considered State Police. Like peace officers employed by the State Board of Dental Examiners, game wardens aren't part of a city police force, county sheriff office, etc.

Re: 140 Killed in 1 day!

These people have been killing each other since the dawn of time. The U.S. should not send even $1.00 in assistance or aid to either side. Let 'em have it. We have enough $$$ problems here at home plus It's none of our business. It sounds like you have more in common with Ron Paul than you think.

Good plans are hard to come up with under stress, and what is obvious later isn't at the time it's most needed.

Re: Debt limit and Spending cuts!

The phrase "enemies foreign and domestic" comes to mind when I look at what they're doing to the country. WE are the reason for this.... Voters... Sheep, on average. When the people getting government checks outnumber the taxpayers, the people voting for more "free money" are no...

Re: Knocking on the door can be dangerous in N. Houston

3. Folks who haven't done a lot of thinking situations through (like the very valuable activity that goes on in this Forum constantly) don't have a plan they can fall back on and execute. Instead they act impulsively - and often unwisely. Like wandering into neighborhoods and knocking on doors in t...

Re: Carry in Oklahoma Casino

Any thoughts on how this applies to road-side gas stations? I frequently travel HWY69/75 between Dallas and I-40, and my preferred place to stop is the Choctaw Travel Plaza in Atoka. It's clean with decent prices and a convenient spot to walk my dog. If I enter the store to use the restroom, am I c...

Re: LF Cheap 1st rifle

I would have suggested a 10/22 for your first rifle for the reasons others said but if you're happy with the Mosin Nagant, that's the most importante thing.

Icing on the cake. If you have the bayonet, you can use it as a boar spear for pig hunting.
