  1. I wonder how many other big Corporations were on the edge of pulling the plug on the NRA that are glad they didn't play Froggy and jump with the rest of them that did? Sometimes it pays to sit back see what happens when stupid people who do stupid things before you look as stupid as they do!!!!
  2. OOOPPP"s I bet Enterprise didn't see that one coming!!! I hope them and other of the firms walking away from the NRA also get a few stingers like that one. Choices do have consequences and the wrong choices can have some real Zingers!!!!
  3. Well, unless it goes to 71 I'm safe and good to go!!!!!
  4. My Daughter decided a couple weeks ago that I needed a Smart phone so she bought my a SamSung 7. I have had it about 2 weeks and it has remained plugged up till yesterday. I unplugged it and it took me 10 minutes of reading the instructions to learn how to turn it on. It is all programed with Apps for about everything. I figure if I spend an hour a day learning how to make things work I will be dead before I learn half of it. I also found out right quick you need to watch where you touch or you go places you don't want to go at that time and you have to keep going backwards. Gives me something to do when I get bored...............JMHO
  5. The real enemy here CZ is the Social Media and the Cable news. Mass killings like these are not new. The ability to make sure every person on earth knows about them at light speed!!! Then every one has an opinion and a comment about it, good bad or indifferent. Charles Whitman was a mass murderer and killed people from the Clock Tower in Austin. He began by killng his family and then just killing strangers 14 in all and wounding 31 until they finally killed him. I would be willing to bet 1/2 or more of the people in the country 3 days after it was over could not tell you who Charles Whitman even was. If that happened today Social Media and Cable news would have it for weeks and everyone would know who he was. The only reason you don't hear more about the Vegas massacure is because no one can find out anything about the shooter or a motive. All that is mentioned now is the Bump-Stocks. Take away Social media and cable news and about 90% of all of the sinsational reporting would be a blip on your computer or TV screen...........jmho
  6. I use to just carry a Bersa Thunder Single stack most places but it the lst year or so I have began putting 1 or 2 back up magazines in my pocket for that "Just in case situation" that might show up or I just carry the 85 double stack. I doubt I will ever be in a school or a Mall or being in a situation the would require more than 1 magazine but these days one never knows..............JMHO
  7. The Temptation to do this is almost over whelming but I am going to store this link for a later date.!!!!!!!
  8. You have come very close to hitting the nail directly on the head for sure. I have watched every commercial on TV pertaining to medications I think!!!! I think when business gets slow they come up with new ones like the one that amuses me is the one that tells you to put your poop in the box and give it to the UPS guy and he will take it to a lab in GOD knows where and they will test it to see if you have cancer. And you suppose to trust these people you have never met doing the test to tell you the truth!!!!!!! Or how about the one where 1 in 30 Baby Boomers have Hep C and we should all rush to our doctor to be tested cause if you have it we have a cure for it!!!! The one I like is Optivo, cure for Cancer instead of Chemo. about 1 minute of the Commercial is spent listing the side effects from the stuff and at the end of the list they add that this may not be all the side effects. They also tell you that even after taking the meds once you have completed the dosages required that Optivo might attack healthy Organs leading to death. Why would people request this kind of stuff????????
  9. I just bought a case of that...........LOL.
  10. Pretty much like Opry Mills is the magnet for gangs in the East Nashville area. I don't know where the gangs go in Antioch since Hickory Hollow closed and not sure where the west side gangs are hanging out since the Bellevue Mall closed.
  11. That is an officer doing what he is trained to do. Take charge of the situation and gain control of bad guy as fast as possible. By his action of aggression the officer caught the bad guy totally off guard and the bad guy gave the officer what he needed!!!! OPPORTUNITY and the officer took it. I say job well done.............JMHO
  12. All cities and even some larger small towns have gangs so I would not put it beyond the realm of possibility a gang may have been checking response time of police. Not all gangs are just stupid thugs. There are some of the that have some pretty smart leaders. I remember back years ago the true leader of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club was a college graduate and had a Bachelor and Masters Degrees in Law and could have been a lawyer had he taken the Barr exam and passed it. Gangs are spreading like a Virus and so far there is no Vaccine for them. They have just about taken over the Antioch area from what I have hear from friends that use to live there and moved out because of them.
  13. I think many police departments are shooting deer slugs in their shot guns so may have been a slug round. I read some where that using buck shot was opening the police departments up to lawsuits by people getting struck with buckshot that were not even in the line of fire. Could be wrong but I think I read it.
  14. I'm good to go this round!!!
  15. You might try this place. I think they rent them. http://www.howardsmotorcycles.com/
  16. Well panick buyng is no longer on my list of things to do I am glad to say. I have done it so many times I now have enough or more than enough to get me through for a while............JMHO
  17. Because my mind is always working but these days not as sharp and it once did but I am wondering if it was a test of someone to see how fast the police response would be if it was an actual active shooter situation Someone that might have future plans and testing the waters so to say?????? I've heard of stranger things happening before.
  18. Well I was unable to load the video but from the title I can form an opinion. The Little Leaguers won't be able to buy baseball bats any more. They are assault weapons, Correct?????
  19. My weather radio kept going off every 5 minutes talkin about Tornadoes and heavy rains in counties to the west of Sumner but only mentioned Sumner twice all night. I'm not sure it even rained here last night. I think everything went north before it got here...............
  20. Oh, so you never got to eat there? Ok, I thought the Grill might have been someplace else and you had to drive by the mall to get to it. Still, interesting story about the sorta active shooter that was not really one but a Glock was found in the parking lot and it was not shooting anyone. So maybe it is true that guns don't kill people or surely it would have killed someone!!!.........JMHO
  21. So anyway, How was the food at the Rodizio Grill?
  22. All Veterans don't have PTSD. I don't have it and I know probably a 100 more that don't have it. Problem now is we are all to old for the job.I just turned 70 and had a triple By-pass but I can promise you a year ago I would still have been running towards the gun fire in a school to engage the shooter. I have heard so many people say it sounded like Fire crackers and not gun shots. Fine, if you a student run away from the fire crackers and it your and officer run towards the fire crackers but run in the direction you should be running in..............JMHO
  23. "Wow. Just wow. You have to wonder how many lives he could have saved". You can wonder all day but we will never know will we? I would be willing to bet my last dollar if that would have been a retired VET we would have found out because a Veteran runs to gun fire and not away from it!!!!! I have said it a dozen times and I will say it one more. We have 1000's of Veterans looking for work a great job for them would be protecting our children and grandchildren while in school. There are many of them with college degrees that could be employed as school counselors, coaches, assistant coaches, Custodians(Janitors) Grounds Keepers, they are all trained in firearms and would only take a few short classes to refresh them on what their jobs are but job 1 is the protection of the children. They were in our military so they already know how to follow orders..............JMHO
  24. Yea, they admitted that many people spoke out but remember, we are talking about the Government Alphabet Forces at work here. Back very shortly after 911 President Bush formed the Department of Homeland Security. It was designed for a lot of reasosns but the main one was to get all of the Alphabet Groups to begin talking and sharing any and all information they had on case both of them were working on and compare notes. That was back shorty after 9/11/2001 and 18 years later they still are not working together cause several of the had paper work on this guy and no one was talking or very possibly 17 young people and numerous others would be alive today.............JMHO
  25. If you will look around you will see many of the items you have listed above no longer exist in our country. The last 2 generations have lost them and I'm not sure if they can't find them again or if they are even looking for them! It would appear they are not really looking very hard to find them because they are still here. I homestly don't think they want the country we had back 2 or 3 generations ago. I don't think tey have time to help somone that has fallen or someone that just needs a little help to get back on their feet. I have watched and if you look at the crowds at sporting events mos of th people in the crowds are standing but looking into their Cell Phones and not at the Flag. Some will say I had it on my cell phone. Why??? It's right in front of you going on live???????? Two friends will be sitting at a bus stop waiting on a bus and instead of talking to each other face to face they will be texting each other!!!!!!! What is wrong with that picture???? Are they brain washed to a point they can no longer speak??? I sent about 30 minutes some time back sitting on a bench in a pretty busy Park and during that 30 minutes 81 people walked past me and 74 of them had their faces in their cell phones and some eople actually bumped into each other , to busy to stop and look where they were going. If I would be willing to guess, I would say SOCIAL MEDIA in one of our major issues in todays society....................JMHO
