Is ‘Project Gunwalker’ about to bust wide open?

More "stuff" floating to the top of this cesspool. More Violent Crimes in Mexico a Result of Operation Fast and Furious - Katie Pavlich -
I second that recommendation, if you want to spice it up, just sprinkle on some cayenne pepper. The LEM seasoning does well, I have sent over 400 lbs to my nephews in the sand box over the last few years, it keeps well when vacuum packed.

Where were you on the morning of September 11, 2001?
Worriedman replied to TGO David's topic in General Chat
I was coming back on the early morning flight out of Green Bay via Detroit. I got into Memphis, drove back to Jackson in time to walk into the office and see the second plane hit the tower. A fellow PM and I seeing what had happened, knew the buildings were going to come down. I work at the same firm Old Goat does, I remember everyone sitting in the main conference room in shock. -
Is ‘Project Gunwalker’ about to bust wide open?
Worriedman replied to a topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
From the article: "Late last Friday, CBS News and the Los Angeles Times almost buried the news that (Dan) Restrepo, the National Security Council's top man for Latin America, and two other officials, were in on ATF memos from the Gunwalker operation called "Fast and Furious." That blows apart White House claims that it had no idea the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was encouraging frontmen for Mexico's cartels to buy weapons from U.S. gun dealers — to "trace" them afterward." A White House 'Gunrunner'? - Investors.com Something rotten in Washington. -
I am shocked, shocked I tell you. Traver involved in selling guns to felons, surly not. Why I bet he is just trying to give them back some dignity.

Gun Rack in back window of a truck
Worriedman replied to vontar's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I am pretty sure that is not a correct statement about the ammunition "readily accessible". Not able to carry it loaded is correct, and no loaded magazine or clip close to any person and the weapon yes, (IF no one has a HCP), but according to 39-17-1307 (e) (2): Legislature passed this change basically to allow hunters to carry their long guns and ammo in their vehicles. -

He has really been doing a wonderful job if that... Seattle Green Jobs Program Gets $20M, Creates 14 Posts | FoxNews.com How about the "Dream Act" push by Executive Order last week? Like these guys care one whit about the Constitution, see the Gibson Guitar raid. Or the Health Care Reform Act, Obama and his crew knew that was headed to the Supreme Court, yet like Red Skelton's little boy, they "Dood it anyway." My concern is that his liberal base is clamoring for something akin to what he promised them for their money and support, and guns would be the first thing he would throw under the bus. He knows the Conservatives are against him, he just has to hope the libs and the "Independents" can eek out a win this time. The libs are furious that we are not wearing Red Stars, so he has to do something to appease them.

NRA, TFA, GOA, NAGR?... Which to support?
Worriedman replied to TNTall's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Been a Life Member of the NRA since high school, found the TFA when I moved back to TN from TX, become an active Life Member of it as well. NRA needs our attention to get it back on track, but you can only affect it from the inside. TFA because the NRA really does not drill down to a State level, and there is much work to do right here, as the majority of things that really affect our ability to carry are decided in the TN Legislature. -
Man flashes gun while asking for money...thoughts?
Worriedman replied to Gophert's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I thought in TN, if you are not convicted of a crime in a self defense shooting, then the civil suit was a non starter? -
Not the wishes of the spokesman for the Nashville Police, Don Aaron, from the article: According to Mike Dunavant, district attorney from Tipton County: If in fact that is a weapon that was stolen from a Citizen, and the rightful owner is realized, does that property deserve to be kept from him or her? Further Mr. Dunavant says: Isn't every gun subject to the same vicissitudes of possibility, is a gun that has been once used in a violent crime more likely to "fall into the wrong hands" than a brand new one purchased to replace one that has been stolen? Emotional knee jerk reaction in my opinion.

From the article: Part of the emotional response of Ms Kerr was quoting this statement from the Director of Chiefs of Police. I for one see this kind of attitude as dangerous. I fully support LE in their prescribed responsibility of ENFORCING laws, and have a high respect for them, but they do not need to be in the business of deciding what they do with regard to laws. That is what the elected representatives of our State are charged with deciding.

Was not talking about the Police Department selling a weapon, was replying to Motasyco's idea of destroying a weapon used in a murder. You jumped in and added your take on a separate issue, that of selling weapons used in crime, I was responding to Motasyco's suggestion of destroying weapons that have been used in a murder. His take is clear in two different post on the issue.

From the article: Law Enforcement is charged to do just that, enforce the laws, they are NOT empowered to make the laws. Local LE has no autonomy to make decisions regarding laws, thank God. Her entire article is an emotional response, not a single correct fact involved. Let's take this a step further. A thief breaks into you home, takes a weapon and a vehicle. They drive the vehicle to a location , rob and murder a Citizen. The police recover the vehicle and the weapon, should they destroy both, is there a difference in the two? Do they owe the original owner the value of both if they are destroyed to satisfy a "feel good" emotional response, or should private insurance pay the loss, driving up cost for everyone else? Our constitution says that no one is to be deprived of their personal property without just compensation, if the LE agency retrieves stolen personal property of any nature, should they destroy it without compensation? LE departments sell confiscated property all the time, e.g. cars, do they belong in the automobile business?

So, a thug breaks in and steals your grandfather's 1911 that he carried in the War with Honor, uses it to rob and murder someone. The police catch him and retrieve the weapon, instead of returning your family heirloom to you they melt it down. How about holding a public hanging to destroy the perp and return your property? The fact is, our State Constitution places the responsibility for these decisions in the hands of the Legislature, not the local politicians. We are all happier (or should be) with "Shall Issue" for permits instead letting the politics of local Sheriffs control that aspect. If they confiscate a go fast car hauling drugs, or cash in the trunk, do we expect them to destroy them because they were used in the commission of a crime?

employees permitted to keep weapons in car?
Worriedman replied to chances R's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
Yes, and I think that 2012 will be the year that it happens.
