Well, there is one flaw in your reasoning. Feeling from the scene can and will be used against you as evidence of your consciousness of guilt. It will destroy your defense at trial. The justice system will widely view a law-abiding citizen who calls 911 and claims he/she was the victim of a crime w...

MDA, for starters? Never underestimate the power of idiots in large groups. That is indeed quite possible. My overall point being, that IMO, the local manager didn't just wake up one day and go 'Hm, I think I'll go through Texas Weapons laws today to see if my store is keeping everyone out', but ra...

The Round Rock IKEA has been posted, very prominently, for quite some time, before OCT. Which leads me to believe that is is not corporate-wide policy to post these signs, but rather Local Store Management policy. If it was corporate policy, they all would have went up at the same time. What would ...

Would that sign stop an OCT carry? I think business that put up a 30.06 don't want any guns. Blame the business for this one. They had a gunbuster up. That would prevent OC alone. Correlation does not equal causation. Unless and until IKEA announces that OCT's antics caused them to put up the sign,...

Note to self: If I ever do the right thing in the wrong place.... Beat feet. This goes back to a discussion that was had a couple years ago. Let me rehash the situation: -You're walking down an alley, some guy comes out of nowhere and pulls a knife/gun/other clear indicator of deadly force on you. ...

That sign is new. I've been to that IKEA many times in the past, looked up and down for a 30.06, saw their generic gunbuster sign, and walked past it. The location that sign is in was empty just a few weeks ago. I can honestly say, this is probably a direct result of OCT's shenanigans. I've been goi...

Some of my answers in-line First: What do you want to hear about? News: Direct news relating to firearms in Texas over the past week/whatever. Proposed changes, people defending themselves, etc. All the major Gun-related news that actually matters, not just the crap the news puts up for ratings. Cal...

I'm down for 10 Texas edition, for a good price.

I voted bad as I think the cops should be able to access the phone if a properly issued search warrant is rwceived, not just a rubber stamp search warrant. Without a search warrant, they shouldn't be able to access the phone whether encrypted or not. Let's slippery slope this then, shall we? Say to...

If you want any more information/insight on this woman's situation before & after this incident, she's been posting her stalker story on Reddit for a while now, asking for help, documenting how the police have been less than helpful, and asking what she should do. She claimed at one point that s...

take a look at what people do in their backyard workshops in the Philippines People melt down scrap metal and make fairly sophisticated homemade firearms It's not even that hard anymore A few hundred dollars on a 3d printer, and you too can make lowers and other parts that, while will not currently...

Does Texas law define Firearms Sensitive Places? As far as I remember, only in context to the secure area of police stations. Nowhere else. Sec. 411.207. AUTHORITY OF PEACE OFFICER TO DISARM. (b) A peace officer who is acting in the lawful discharge of the officer's official duties may temporarily ...

It's pointless unless the bill includes criminal penalty and loss of peace officer license for bad cops who arrest people who ignore improper 30.06 signs on government property. I disagree, financial penalties for agencies and specifically people who define/enforce the illegitimate policy/post the ...

Who would be responsible for enforcing and writing citations to government agencies who post 30.06 if HB508 does pass? Anyone? That depends on how the bill is written. There won't be any citations, there will be lawsuits. My version allows the AG to do it and if the AG does not file suit within a c...

Here's a thought... Couldn't you call the police on them? I mean, they are spraying an unknown substance on your property. For all you know, it could be acid that will eat away at your paint... Good luck getting Houston PD to show up. You'll probably have better luck in a smaller jurisdiction where...
