  2. I live in east tn. I have never seen someone open carrying in a reckless or manner. It seems some here may think that if you open carry at all your being reckless but not me. I am 6'2 and weigh 195 lbs with a 32 inch waist, it is very tough to conceal carry in the summer. I end up with a ankle holster most of the time. In the winter I use a OSWB with a light jacket. The biggest problem with ankle carry is that it is hard to draw my firearm inconspicuously. The good part is if I am sitting down it is easier to get to than on the waist. If standing I have been able to draw and fire in under 2 seconds. Open carrying is by far the fastest and easiest way to access a firearm. I guess that's part of the reason LE OC.
  3. I would also like to see more data about the side effects of the vaccine. The only thing I have found was over 11 k deaths from the shot. I know 2 people that died within a week after the shot, that's not to say it was the cause but.... I also know several people that have had problems after the shot, the most common has been symptoms like MS. They did clear up over time months but still not much data on that type of thing.
  4. I also hear people the have got shot say the their symptoms where not as bad because of the vac. My question is how do you know that? I have talked to people that had no symptoms that did not get the vac and others that did that are in the hospital. How does one person know that the shot helped them?
  5. I have talked to my doc and the local CVS. They either carry it or can get it and he would prescribe it for me, thats the best I can do at the moment. If I get 19 I will see how it works.
  6. I agree, Just not seen anyone open carrying like that.
  7. I have as well, but it was not because i was open carrying, which is what we are talking about. Not an expert just a little common sense.
  8. No kidding, but not by someone wanting to rob a place and decide to take out the cop first. Ambushing a cop and targeting someone that is open carrying while committing another crime are two different things.
  9. I said there was no data that I can find so there is no link. Just because you are CC does not mean you cannot be approached from behind. Please someone find me a story of someone that was targeted first only because they were open carrying.
  10. I am not sure where you guys live but the few times I have OCed no one noticed that I could tell. A G26 up tight on my waste is neither a "I have a gun so I am bad" thing or anything else other than I got hot and had to take off my jacket thing. No one has ever said something or eyed me in any way that would not seem normal.
  11. Sorry there is no data showing that one open carrying is the first target nor does it make sense. Bad guys generally want as few confrontations possible. The likely hood of one getting shot and not being able to return fire is more like the movies than real life and few bad guys are looking to get in a gun fight. What if a bad guy comes into a restaurant and armed cop is setting there? Do you think they are the first target or will the bad guy go find a easier place to rob. I have never heard of someone being targeted first because they were armed. I also does not seem reasonable that a bad guy would scan the crowd looking to take out someone armed. Its more likely if the bad guy sees someone armed they will pick a easier target. The times I have OP was with a G26 that very few people even could see more less a bad guy making me the first target.
  12. I am told if your employer forces you to get the vaccine and you have complications it should be covered by their workman's comp.
  13. My wife deals with the corporate attorneys all the time as the HR person for her company. She is told be the attorneys that her company can require the vaccine. They have not yet but I would also like to see if they are responsible for negative side effects. The last I saw over 11k have died because of the shot. 25 years ago I worked for the largest company in the world in the wholesale food business. I increased sales a million a year in my territory which put me far ahead of the other reps. I was the first to get laid off. Been self employed since then. My son was testing normal until he got his second set of shots as a baby, he is now 22 years old but mentally is 10. He will require care for the rest of my life and the rest of his, try planning for that. For that reason and others my 18 daughter has never had a shot and we did the religious exemption for school. We are very religious by the way. Of course it was not the shots that caused the issue with my son, it was just a coincidence. Needless to say no one in my house has had the 19 vaccine or are we planning on getting it. Keep in mind the 3rd leading cause of death in the US are doctors and hospitals.
  14. Ours are on duty, we are just paying them to be there instead of somewhere else. That is what the DA recommended.
  15. Good, was not stressed before not stressed now. I tend to go with small adjustments anyway.
  16. So are you saying we should just ignore the inflation numbers.
  17. I have them in 4 cars. Not sure the brand. There is a local guy that installs them for me. I always get the ones with 2 cameras front and back. I have them in my daughters car as well and can track her if need be with it. I had a Lexus LS 460 one week and a guy side swiped me on a little curvy road close to home. I saw it coming as was almost stopped and in the ditch trying to avoid him. He was clearly way on my side of the road. He was very sorry when we talked while waiting for LE to arrive. Funny he was not sure he had crossed the center line when talking to LE. Fortunately the officer could tell what really happened and placed the blame on the guilty party. I had the car for one week and had to gotten the cams put in yet so it was my word and the experience of the officer that had me covered. Love the dash cams.
  18. Lumber was no where near as high last summer as it has been lately. Lumber PRICE Today _ Lumber Spot Price Chart _ Live Price of Lumber per Ounce _ Markets Insider
  19. Inflation last month was 5.4 % up. that means if you make 75 k a year you took a pay cut of over 4k. I think it will get worse as we keep righting off student loans and printing money. Not sure what the effect will be other that higher prices and lower buying power.
  20. I own and run a B to B barter exchange. In other words part of what I do is manage our currency. For 19 years now my practice has been to not extend loans or print money. It has worked well to protect the value of our currency. Wish the Fed Gov would try that. Currently our currency is tied to the US dollar. Looking at options for the future.
  21. Just wondering what others are doing to prepare for the inflation that is here and is going to get worse? I have a stock of silver, ammo and some food items. Thoughts?
