Your data belongs to you. The problem is most people (myself included) sign or click away their privacy rights without even realizing it. I won’t rant about Google, but I don’t use their services…for anything. You are the product. They data mine your emails and documents, and they use search...

I use US LawShield rather than USCCA, and spent time a couple of years ago looking into the differences. Both are good and it boils down to preferences and requirements. USCCA has some caps on legal coverage, but they provide replacement income and liability coverage, and they have resources...

And if you follow “Guns and Gadgets” on YouTube, he’s reporting that things were not done properly and that negligence was possibly the cause. I don’t want to be argumentative, but I still cannot see how blanks cause injury sufficient to kill someone, unless you fire the weapon at point blank...

Got it.

I’m not an expert on Jason Lee’s death, but I believe the issue was that the gun was supposed to contain blanks and had an actual round loaded. So he was shot and killed by a bullet.

I’m not an expert on prop guns and blank cartridges, but I don’t see how it’s physically possible to injure someone seriously enough to kill them with blank cartridges. I wonder if the pistol was loaded with something else besides blanks. In any case…rule #1 of gun safety is treat all guns as...

I live here, and have this time around for the last 14 years. The prior time, I lived here for 10 years between college and a few years following school. So I’m 56 years old and have lived in GA for 24 years.

I haven’t seen it, but I also haven’t traveled every road or been in every small town. I have driven on backroads in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, the Carolinas, Tennessee, and much of Florida, and with a few odd execeptions haven’t seen many rebel flags on those visits to some of the most...

Bought the DYL Mil Spec as my first 1911, so had nothing really to compare. It’s really well built and reliable and realized how much so when I bought my second 1911, a stainless Ruger SR1911 gov model. The trigger and grip safety rattle on the Ruger, and the slide fit on the frame is OK, but...

It’s not a question of “don’t worry, be happy” or a pat on the back. It’s about working against people who espouse bad ideas and want to destroy what this country means.

I am wealthy. I also grew up a lower middle class to poor kid in NYC. Lived in a high rise apartment until I graduated HS. Paid my own way through college. Got my first car, a 1979 WV Rabbitt with 103K miles on it, when I turned 21 years old. So I know a thing or two. I also know what hard work...

That’s a talking point that isn’t backed up by facts. I’m sure you can find an evil rich person or a company who in a vacuum paid little taxes. In those exceptions what you don’t see are that losses, charitable contributions, etc and other offsets allowed that happen. Hey, this backward...

There is a lot of info out there on the ACLU’s hard left turn if you care to read it. https://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/civil-rights/345368-how-the-aclu-only-protects-the-free-speech-of-liberals

That’s not what they advocate for now. I’d suggest reading up on cases they’ve taken recently. You’re thinking of them 40 years ago. https://trishintel.com/aclu-2nd-amendment-is-racist

Only if the “liberties” coincide with leftist ideals. I remember a time when the ACLU defended the Nazi Party’s 1A right to march through Skokie, IL, not because they agreed with the Nazis, but because they agreed with the Constitution. They have become a leftist organization consumed with woke...

So? Does that bother you? And look who pays the taxes. In 2018, the top 10% of wage earners (>$151K) earned 47% of the income and paid 71% of federal personal income taxes. The bottom 50% of wage earners (<$43K) earned 11% of the income and paid less than 3% of federal personal income taxes...

It should scare the hell out of all Americans. What Biden is proposing is some Soviet level authoritarian crap. Where is the ACLU who used to stand for civil liberties?

Sure…and I would say that people who vote for Democrats because they pretend to be “moderates” or say they won’t support Pelosi or Schumer or Biden are being duped. Look at the Dems who took seats in swing districts in 2018 to take the majority. Almost every one said they wouldn’t support...

The problem there is that the candidate belongs to a party, and if they win they align with a party caucus, and they vote for people like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi to “lead” the Congress.

Right. I was responding to the previous point made that open carry is a deterrent because bad actors will see someone open carrying and be scared away. I was asking if there is any data to show that’s the case.
