I know the area. That's true in some cases. It's like someone mentioned earlier, it's because the govt decided that it would be a good idea to tear down the projects and place section 8 families in established neighborhoods. You can tell who is buying their home by the way the property looks.

My mother retired to Clearwater, Florida. That area seems to be good to go.

+1 I agree with you on the school situation. Memphis has a few exceptional schools, but the administration is taking the system down hill fast. My wife and I have always chosen private schools for our kids (currently MUS and Briarcrest), because we did not want our kids involved in the red tape/politics that is killing the school system. Fayette County, Eads or Arlington is in my future also. My move is not based on the perceived danger of living in Memphis, but the opportunity to get back to a slower pace and my roots. As a boy I lived near US70 and Germantown Rd (I hate the Wolfchase Mall because it destroyed every memory that I had of that area). Things were quiet and slow and as I mature I desire to return to that type environment.

+1 No descent person goes to Frayser, North or South Memphis for anything but work. They eat their own in those areas. Other than that Memphis is as safe as ANY other city.

That P22 is more accurate than I was lead to believe, and no issues to report to date.

It gets old confronting people about crapping on my city. You can't convince a ignorant people that he or she is ignorant. Obama is doing his part to hurt the country, but so are old stale attitudes.

.

The preachers daughters were always the freaks when I was in school.

Some of us were those guys.

Or college:p

+1 Tell the truth and shame the devil.

+1 That's what I was thinking. I have raised two girls and I believe that the guy lost it because he probably bust his ass raising her and then she did this. You guys have to remember that you can raise them right, but you can't make their decisions for them.

MSNBC needs to stop that experiment right now.

It served its purpose to create internet outrage over nothing. Obama is lame, but at least he had enough sense to go and pay his respects to our brothers.

Make sure that you have no markings on the box that will identify the contents as being a weapon. Their rates to ship by truck are very reasonable.

UPS will ship it directly to a Texas ffl.

My 24 year old has moved and my twins will be 16 soon so I have not had to spank (whip ass) in a long time. I remember administering a butt whipping years ago and the child goes PBS on me and starts talking about reporting me. I told him no problem,but I hope that you enjoy living in a foster home where you will really be loved. Never heard that crap again. I agree with a earlier poster that you need to communicate with the kids also and not just thrash them.

I agree. I'm the bad guy because I don't let my kids run my house and disrespect me. My daughter tells me that ......... mom let's her curse as long as she does not curse her? What? Billy doen't do chores. Why do we have to do chores? So on and so on. It all starts with the parents.

You make a good point. I have one exception. My local dealer always says no when I attempt to obtain a lower price on a weapon, so I've taken to the internet to get my fix.

That was amazing!

I hate when these things happen. I can proudly say that would never happen if I were around with my children. My brats are polite to a fault sometimes. What I don't like is when people compliment me on my kids behavior as if it's abnormal. Looks like parenting is becoming a lost art.

The Walther is my first .22 pistol and it is a hoot to shoot. I shot CCI mini mags and CCI .22 tactical rounds thru it with zero issues. I have five magazines for it, but you can blow thru them so fast that I think that I may need five more just to save reload time. Looks like it will be a keeper for long term plinking. I see why you Sig guys are so "Elitist"....just kidding. The E2 performed flawlessly. I shot cheap reloads, Federal, Remington Golden Sabre, DPX and Hornady Critical Defense thru it and it liked it all. I can't say anything that has not already been said. This pistol is a winner. If my Glock19 could express emotions it would be looking a little nervous right now.

That was nice. Drummers have always been way cool.

+1 I have shot and owned the Les Baer TRS and Springfield TRP. There is a noticible difference between the two. They are both very good fighting pistols, but you can tell that a little something extra went in the TRS. They are worth the money to me also, but I carry the Glocks. I willl be putting a few hundred rounds thru my new Sig P229-E2 this week to see if it can bump the G19 as my daily carry.

They are doing some good work at Milt Sparks. The holster for the G26 arrived today and the VMII for the Sig should be here monday or tuesday.
