Guess this is why I often watch it but really dont like it, lol. Will and Stephanie piss me off!

Scary!

Although this doesn't seem "smart" on behalf of this dept, lol, I get tired of people always hollering discrimination all the time, like its such a terrible thing. Sheesh, we discriminate consistently, day in and day on. Official racial discrimination gave all discrimination a bad name. What about a dept discriminating against people who are criminals and want to be cops? Thats discrimination too, isnt it? All too often I don't agree with the decisions of our liberal courts, but this time they got ti right...The dept's policy, although it may not be smart, isnt illegal discrimination.

Dunno, but I like it!

I just did this earlier this month too. If you are retired military you can do it too, and you can make quarterly payments instead of the 300 up front. Just call them.

I have/had a 1911 Colt Combat Commander in stainless that I believe was stolen out of my house in Madison approximately 8-9 years ago. At the time, I thought the gun was in a gun cleaning box that I put into a storage unit when I moved out of the house 8 years ago. The storage unit was one of those commercial kind and it was locked with me having the only key. Well last week, I finally got the storage emptied, and went through EVERY box. No gun. I have no idea who took it and I dont recall seeing any signs of a break in. My son and his then girlfriend were staying with me, and they broke up before she left...I don't know for sure who was in the house. I want to report it stolen, but not sure if that is possible at this late stage. Can anyone advise? I have pictures of it and the serial number. I got the gun when I was in the USAF many years ago form a good friend who's no longer around, so it has a lot of sentimental value to me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read, and advise. (p.s. I KNOW I was/am stupid about this, no need to tell me what I already know, lol)

I bet most of us would be surprised at the amount of money raised here that ends up in terrorist hands. Many of the so-called Islamic charities are fronts for raising money for groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. DOes that make all Muslims supporters of terrorism? Of course not, but a surprising numbe rof them DO support it, some wittingly, some not. I cant help but believe that if the average Muslim in the street was truly against terrorism, then terrorism acts would dry up, at least to some degree. And if you think that Mosques are just for prayer, you are deluded, lol. I would bet that despite the protestations of the Imams, bad things are planned in there...

I had a super nice Colt Combat Commander stolen from my hopuse several years ago. It had been put up and I didnt even have a clue it was gone until fairly recently. I had moved several years ago, and thought it was lost somewhere in the move. Ive recently decided that it is gone. It was brushed stainless finish with black rubber grips. S/N is 70SC10647. I would dearly love to have that gun back as it had a sentimental attachment. It was never reported stolen, because like i said i thught it was stored away. Is it too late to report it stolen? I have NO suspects on this...

LOVE that holster! What kind is it?

I loves me my Sig 1911 Stainless Steel Carry

I'll just say this...being paranoid does NOT mean that there is not really someone after you...lol.

NEST teams have been around a while. Since way back before the Soviet Union broke up and thos ebackpack nukes got loose. Theory was that the Soviets may have had sleeper cells embedded throughout America, maybe with some of these nukes...I think todays, islamofacist threats are of greater concern. Mutally Assured Destruction may have really deterred the Soviets back then, but the Islamofacists dont care. The best way Big Brother could help is by adequately securing the borders. They are wide open. Secure the borders and you wont need all these other incursions into our freedoms.

I think there's much to be said for not volunteering that you are armed, unless the LEO asks. As far as this case goes. the weapon would have been "secured for the officers safety while still in the backpack, no need to search. I think so many times, just as a traffic stop, though it may be justified, is simply a pretense to stop and see if there is something serious you can work on, like outstanding warrants, , visible illegal items, etc., or even to get permission for a search when you have no probable cause. Heck, I think there's even an award for that in Metro here in Nashville...the Oddfellow award, or something like that. Anyone that has done law enforcement knows that there are more "crimes" that are "discovered" during a traffic stop than just about ANYWHERE else.

I know...i was joking...guess i was too subtle, lol...

FWIW, my original post, above, was intended as a joke.

[h=3]Important: TGO New Member Manual [/h] Everytime I see the above thread, I think, "wow, we need a MANUAL now? TGO is becoming way complicated if we need a manual!!" LOL.

Ive got a Bersa Thunder 9 Pro in 9mm that is a great gun!

I liked it. I also liked the Seventh Seal someone mentioned on here... When I was younger, I wouldn't watch subtitled movies at all. A long stint in Europe cured me of that....In England many years ago, I learned to love watching many subtitled movies...saw many that I wouldnt have seen otherwise. I still like them and see them on cable now and then.

The Feds ain't gonna let you carry there period, whether diassembled or or lock or whatever. lol. No way no how. Thats not TN law so much as fed rules. I can just picture myself trying to splain to the Feds whats in my locked box, Somehow, I don't get warm fuzzies thinking about how understanding they would be, lol.

Good advice! As with most things, practice has many, sometimes not so obvious, benefits. I'm in the employment business and I am of the opinion that you just cant be too prepared.

I've got a nook color. I added a root card to make it into a ful fledged Android OS tablet. I love it. Now B&N have come out with the Nook Tablet, and a newer nook color. The newer nook color is great. I think the hardware is bigger, better and faster than the Kindle fire, and the cost is the same now that B&N broiught out the tablet, they owered the price of the nook color to the same as the Kindle Fire. On it, she can do all that you said she needs to do. BTW I read an article recently compariing these, and the nook came out ahead, but not by a whole lot. Whatever you get, Id also recommend the Zagg Invisashield screen protector.

I liked heat, but the big gunfight in the street has the cops all shooting at each other. There were more cops shooting in the direction of other cops than there were bad guys shootong at cops, lol. Directly across from each other even.

I saw J. Edgar last week...I was pretty bored with it, and overall disappointed. YMMV.
