According to Metro Police, the suspect approached a victim in the parking lot of the mall at around 7:30 p.m. June 17. The male suspect pulled out a revolver and demanded belongings from the victim. The victim then pulled out their own gun and the two exchanged gunfire. The suspect was hit in the knee and fled on foot. The victim was not injured.

The suspect was identified by the victim before being taken to the hospital for non-life-threatening injuries. Police said multiple witnesses and security camera footage verified what happened.

You would be a hero to who ever you helped.

At work I have to travel into the city on a daily bases. How I would handle this is stay put in my work van call 911, if things go south I will leave the van and run as fast as I can from the danger. No way would I wait for the mob to get to me. After work I never travel into the city. However if I have to go through the city to get some where, I am watching the news, the map apps looking for any sign of trouble. My Mom and Dad live on the other side of the city from where I live, most trips involve 840. I have a friend that is a local LEO, also a neighbor that is a county depute, both will give me info on what is going on.

Be still my pounding heart.

Commie version of the "Tommy" gun

Just like climate change or what ever they are calling it now, make up ####e and call it science and it has to be right.

I put mine up every day and down every night, well in bad weather I do not fly my flag.

Good find KahrMan, I used the "angry" face as I a joke, you do find the the good stuff!!!

https://www.tn.gov/attorneygeneral/news/2020/6/5/pr20-23.html Statement from AG Slatery Following Absentee Voting Decision Friday, June 05, 2020 | 09:12am Nashville- This evening Davidson County Chancellor Ellen Hobbs Lyle ordered state government to abandon long standing requirements for in person voting. Tennessee, like all states, must engage in a delicate balancing act: it must safeguard voters from COVID-19 exposure while ensuring that voters are not disenfranchised. Tennessee’s election officials consulted with experts from the Tennessee Department of Health and county health departments to create a comprehensive COVID-19 election plan that conforms to the CDC’s guidance and makes Tennessee’s polling places safer than the general community. The Court’s ruling, while rightly taking into account the safety of Tennessee’s voters and poll workers, failed to appropriately consider the extensive safety measures of the COVID-19 election plan, and, more importantly, gave little weight to the unanimous expertise of state and county election officials that hastily expanding absentee voting is impracticable and risks disenfranchising Tennessee voters. The Court’s order has taken this important decision away from Tennessee’s state and county election experts and unnecessarily risks voter confusion, potential voter fraud, and election disruption. “It is yet another court decision replacing legislation passed by the people’s elected officials with its own judgment, largely ignoring the practicalities of implementing such a decision, and doing so in the midst of a pandemic and budget crisis,” said Herbert H. Slatery III. ### Press Release #20-23: Statement from AG Slatery Following Absentee Voting Decision

This is spot on, I to have talked to the younger crowd, if they work, most are right leaning.

So no one else fly's an American flag?

As a correct handed person I can attest to the truth in this!!!

Did I hear dove for lunch?

Now that would be something to use!!!

So where did you get that name, I have a pickaroon at home.

You are welcome, I hate paying for what I can do.

Come on man https://www.brownells.com/shotgun-parts/sights/sight-parts/sight-refill-kits/shotgun-sight-convenience-kits-prod338.aspx Joking with you, it aint hard.

As long as the lower was put on the book as a other or pistol you are good to go. No such thing as a "pistol upper" just a short barrel. That is what is cool about the AR 15 platform, take it apart and rebuild as you want. as long as a rifle stays a rifle you are good to go. The only AR I have is a 300 BLK pistol that I changed to 223 by just changing the barrel. Here is where you might get into trouble, making a rifle lower into a pistol, as well as putting a "stock" on a pistol. With more than 1 AR 15 in the house and get into trouble with the law, a search is done and you just might get hit with "intent" to build a SBR with what you have on hand. Remember, pistol 16 inch or shorter barrel, Rifle is 16 plus inches. Shotgun is 18 plus inches unless you get you one of these.

antifa is the new covid cure!

Great idea Jeb, we to have a long drive up a hill through the woods. No one can see our flag till about half way up the drive. I do not trust my fellow man to leave my flag alone if I put the pole at the road.

So lets see yalls flag poles.

Some time last year I ran across a good deal on a 5'X8' American flag. At the time I did not have a way to display it properly. We did this for Memorial Day, looked good but I did not like leaving it fly all day and not be there if a storm came up. This past week I was at a job site and me being me I just had to look in the construction dumpster. Found 4 pieces of chain link fence top rail. Well now I have a 22 foot flag pole to display my flag.

Found this and wanted to share. https://www.warhistoryonline.com/military-vehicle-news/the-gigantic-180-meter-long-us-army-land-trains-of-the-1950s.html The Gigantic 180 Meter Long US Army Land Trains Of The 1950s The Texan company, LeTourneau, was instructed to design these huge land trains in the 1950s by the US Government. The United States Army got three units built (experimental ones) and the largest reached a length of 600 feet (183 meters), which holds the official record for being the longest vehicle that is off-road. Road trains are still in use today, in some roles, but the Army examples (along with a few other derivatives) seem to be the only models which were built as off-road land trains. LeTourneau was based in Longview Texas and produced heavy equipment, in the early 50’s the came up with the idea of utilizing a diesel/electric transmission that would drive multi-wheeled vehicles. Each individual wheel would be driven by a separate motor, which served to give better traction as it spread the force out across a number of wheels. These vehicles were basically the same as locomotives of this time but had rubber wheels instead of steel .

Glad you are doing well Doug. Most 2nd hand, antique, junk stores are gone. I have not seen one is a good time.

Could not agree more. I have a log splitter that is very short, I would say less than 4 feet from the ball of the log splitter to the axel. I cannot back that Thang up to save my life. I have to get out unhitch it and move it around.
