  3. @tnmale46 LOL at the YouTube video.
  4. I was unaware that businesses used their insurance company to fight civil lawsuits as the result of a gun being brandish or a shooting at their establishment. Like all businesses, insurance companies are in business to make money. They will more than likely increase your insurance premiums for having to render services in defending your business. Whether the restaurant/bar owners use their insurance (when applicable) or hire their own lawyers still results in paying more money (decrease in profits) to run their business. Pretend I am the owner of a restaurant called Arnold’s and this establishment serves alcohol for consumption on site. The bulk of my paying customers are going to be non-HCP holders given the fact that HCP holders are a very small minority compared to the general populace. If my customers express concern about allowing people to “carry in bars†due to the spread of misinformation by the media outlets with their anti-gun bias, I would post my business to keep my paying patrons. There is another consideration for posting a ban of firearms at my establishment; by posting the ban of firearms, in the rare event of an incident with a HCP holder and other patrons sue my business, it should be easier to get the lawsuits dismissed since firearms are banned at my establishment. This means less money will be spent on lawyers. Otherwise, unless there is a precedent set by another court case like mine, I will need to go through a more expensive defense that is costing me more money for allowing firearms for HCP holders at my establishment. I wish David and all others that participate in the peaceful protest success in getting our message across in a positive manner. We are all on the same side. We just see different ways of solving the problem.
  5. Please share with us the extra safety precautions you take when somebody is handling a firearm.

  7. How about we send all those that we can identify raspberry donuts? I wonder if they will get the meaning of raspberry?

  9. I do not believe protesting in front of businesses that post signs banning firearms at their establishments will be received by the public in a positive manner. First reason is that the business owners have the right to post banning firearms on their property or in their establishment. That is the law. Second reason is the owner will resent the protest, no matter how peaceful the protest, as hassling their paying patrons and their business. This will make the restaurant/bar owners resentful of HCP holders and will probably lead to them digging in deeper to fight against HCP carrying in their establishments. HCP holders are in the minority when it comes to their paying customers. Remember, it easier to get something you want by using honey than vinegar. Third, this may be about the liability. To restaurant/bar owners, if someone with a HCP brandishes their gun or uses their gun in a shooting, there is a very high possibility that a lawsuit will be filed against the restaurant (deeper pockets). Therefore, we should be willing to helping them by getting the TN legislator to pass a bill removing the liability. At least this will take away the liability as an excuse for preventing HCP carrying in their restaurants/bars. We need the media to help send a positive message to the public and consequently restaurant/bar owners that only the HCP holders will be allowed to carry legally and that the HCP holder must not drink. As of last year, 34 states, including five adjacent to Tennessee, allow handgun carry permit holders to take their guns into establishments that serve alcohol. I believe education is the key to winning the public opinion. Maybe stage a rally of education at the legislation plaza in Nashville with Q&A flyers to dispel the media myths. For those with connections, perhaps we should try to open a dialogue with restaurant/bar owners to see what their concern is. Is it personal bias, the threat of future lawsuits or something else?
  10. Psst...hey lady. I am trying to hide from the Knights that say Ni!
  11. I laugh at his response and then I thought to myself, it is refreshing to hear honesty.
  12. You cannot possess firearms while on the campus. You can store them with VPD. Vanderbilt Police Department | Vanderbilt University | Students Thank you for explaining the gun laws in UK.
  13. Sorry to go off topic. I just read about Massachusetts guns laws: http://www.nraila.org/statelawpdfs/MASL.pdf Massachusetts., the land aof the banned - Glock Talk Wow!
  14. Did the UK ban all firearms? I would think you could bring your firearms to the USA. For clay sports, I recommend: Tennessee Clay Target Complex - Home I am not sure about the TN laws regarding foreigners being able to purchase firearms. PS: Palma Shooting is long range rifle marksmanship.
  15. Tn.Mitch, Having problems cleaning-out hair in those hard to reach places with your guns? BTW: Nice gun modifications without being getto.
  16. According to the newspaper article, the judge said if he pointed or used the gun to prove self-defense.
  17. I thought Glock created the locking device due to Maryland requiring all guns to have an external safety lock or an integrated mechanical safety device. There may be other states that have this requirement. http://www.nraila.org/statelawpdfs/MDSL.pdf I am not sure if there are other states with this type of requirement.
  18. For some reason the Tennessean is running the story again with new details that answers your question.Fairview parent convicted for gun at school | tennessean.com | The Tennessean New details are:
  19. I was planning to put the gun barrel first down my dress jacket's front top pocket leaving about half of the gun showing replacing my handkerchief.
  20. I thought it would help the thread by sharing the details of the incident that were explained in the police report of the first trial instead of the newspaper's lack of details.
