E4 No More

My luck I'd experience the Golden BB.

I had to Google what "FUPA" means.

Yeah, I don't like the idea of the gun aimed at my ding-ding!

Many times I wished Missouri was like Illinois in that respect. The cities in Class A counties and the Highway Patrol had their own academies. Smaller cities/counties would mostly send their recruits to the Highway Patrol Academy for basic certification because it was less expensive than the academies for the big cities. The Highway Patrol Academy is where I was sent for basic and various certifications/trainings. That's where I became certified as both a RADAR and BreathAlyzer instructor. I also attended their police pursuit driving course and what they called "Red-handled Gun" training. That's where we practiced getting shot during traffic stops by firing cotton balls that were stuffed into pistol cartridge cases that were launched with magnum primers. You can't imagine the welts a bruises cotton can leave on you at close range. Anyway, there was a sheriff in a county that was along the route from my town to Jefferson City, (where the Highway Patrol Academy and prison are located), who was known for stopping law-enforcement vehicles from departments outside of his county making sure that they weren't carrying any concealed weapons. You see, open carry was legal in Missouri, but concealed carry required a license in the jurisdiction that you were carrying in. The dude did NOT believe in professional courtesy. Having statewide training and authority would have solved a lot of problems.

In Missouri where I was a policeman there were different classes and thus different certifications. A class A county carried the highest number of academy hours required for certification, but an officer in that county had arrest powers anywhere in that county. A police officer in a class B county only had powers in their city/town. That caused some Kansas City, MO police officers some liability exposure because Kansas City's city limits are in four counties, (Jackson, Cass, Clay, and Platte counties), of which only one was a class A county: Jackson. I worked in Clay County which could have been a class A county but they refused that classification for some reason that I was never privy to.

Sure thing.

Actually, no...they can only enforce state/federal laws.

I live on the other side of Lascassas on Valley View Road.

Items are gone. Thanks.

Where at in Lascassas? That's where I live.

I agree. Personally, if the business is in leased space on private property I, (if I were still a cop and it was clear that the motive was self-defense rather than criminal intent), would consider the parking lot as part of the business. Unfortunately, not all cops would think the same, and the prosecutor makes the final decision.

I've always believed that their #1 priority was getting money from its members. I say this because I've seen them fail to fight too many times during their existence.

They said the same thing about Ted Bundy.

Back in the early 90's I was kicking around the idea of becoming a polymer engineer when I was trying to choose a major. I was intrigued by a guest-speaker who was an engineer from a plant in Kansas City that made parts for nuclear weapons who told me that they had a polymer so tough that they couldn't find a tool that could reliably cut it. I learned not to poo-poo things because it was a polymer.

Personally, I don't see much sport in having a pack of dogs run down, and tree, an animal so that you can casually walk up to the tree and shoot it.

Another member beat you to it but if their meeting falls through I'll pass to you.

I have 145 unprimed and 70 primed .308 Winchester cases and 150 Hornady Match 168 Gr BTHP free to a good home. Since I live in the sticks of Lascassas I will meet in the surrounding area if you don't want to come to the house.

Yes. Why would I put an invalid address down?

Sportsmen's Warehouse in Murfreesboro has them at $199.99. They gave me 10% off for proving that I was a veteran with my VA card.

Today's my 59th birthday, and I decided to go there to see if they have a Ruger Wrangler that I've been looking for since they were released. Yes, they did, and the advertised price was $199.99 so I picked up a two-toned model. I was taken aback by the fact that they required some form of government issued ID that had my current address on it. Neither my DL nor HCP have my new address on them so I ended up having to go get the registration out of the truck. The store manager, (I think), stopped me as I was walking out of the store asking if I found what I wanted and I remarked about their goofy rule and how I've never encountered that with any other weapon I've purchased. He said they were strictly following federal guidelines. Whatever.... I did find out that they give military/veterans a 10% discount by the clerk asking me if I was a veteran. Fortunately, I had my VA card as proof. The staff is friendly and the prices seemed competitive enough for me. They are still working through processes though.

I'm seeing more armadillos in the area than skunks. I haven't even smelled a skunk in the area this year, come to think of it.

Lions? What lions?

You lost me at the glaze but those look pretty good.
