Haslam signs law restricting Internet pictures
Worriedman replied to Worriedman's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Not ignoring anything. If I post something, or any one else does for that matter, something on a web page, and a politically connected individual takes umbrage, then I am put to the task of defending a position. Were Politicians honest, and had they the best interest of the People at heart, this would be of less concern. This can, and will be turned against Liberty if allowed to stand unaltered. -
Haslam signs law restricting Internet pictures

Here are the changes to TCA 39-17-1308: Per these, not just pictures, but text as well can be construed to be offensive, these being the operative words: "Electronic communications service" means any transfer of signs, signals, writing, images, sounds, data, or intelligence of any nature transmitted in whole or in part by a wire, radio, electromagnetic, photoelectronic or photooptical system;". Now, the local DA can be led by someone on a web site to push charges for nearly anything. It is over reaching in it's breadth. And from some of the lawyers I have spoken with, flies in the face of the Constitution. -

I have, it is not good. Methods of communication referenced in subdivision (a) (1) are: text messaging, facsimile transmissions, electronic mail or Internet services. The Local DA takes a shine to you being in the Cross Bar Motel, and you post a picture or text on the net, you can spend a lot of money to stay out of jail. -
Unconstitutional "War" In Libya
Worriedman replied to strickj's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I agree, and in the end game, each, be it Nation or individual, has to make a choice, for or against Israel. -
I agree Fallguy, this off election year was set to show the world that Tennessee Republicans had no connection to the Firearms advocates. The State of Tennessee Republican party, connected as it is to the Nation Party through Alexander and ex Governor Winfield Dunn strove mightily this session to distance itself from 2nd Amendment advocates, and tried to show Big Business that they had their interest at heart. That Conservative grassroots endeavors was the least of the Republicans focus was meant to position itself as far to the Moderate position as possible. They can now point to the year as giving the Constitutional Conservatives the cold shoulder, in a year where it was not important to seek their support. They will remind us, we lost no ground, and we should be happy with that. Their perception is, that the redneck working stiff has a short memory span, and if next year they can trot out support of an issue or two that panders to the interest of the great unwashed, they can garner support for their elections again, then so be it. They fully lined up behind every issue that was fostered by Corporate sponsorship, and surely the dimwitted gun owners will take a full year of non support as OK as long as the year we pull the tabs in the ballot box, they at least promise to support our issues. As long as we are willing to suffer another few years of them working on the issue they purport to champion, and we are willing to send our dollars to their efforts, then everything is fine. I have discussed this with real supporters of our issues, and they are as mystified and disenfranchised as am I. Their numbers are few, as Legislators who really take our interest as important. The ones who understand the reality of politics tell me till the numbers of calls, letters, visits and dollars increase on behalf of our cause, we are beating our chest to no avail. Attention and money talks and BS walks.

Tennessee senators refile bid to expand forest
Worriedman replied to Worriedman's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
As long as you don't mind walking in to do that hunting, fishing and bird watching. As soon as it gets the Wilderness Area designation, all vehicular traffic, even bicycles are prohibited. Also, no logging of any type, rotational or any kind will be allowed, meaning climax forest that supports very little wildlife. Still researching, but it appears that unless you like to hike and carry everything in and out, you are precluded from entering. -
Tennessee senators refile bid to expand forest » Knoxville News Sentinel Is this a good thing for the Citizens of the State? Does adding "Wilderness Designation" to 20,000 acres of Cherokee National Forrest limit the ability of the average Citizen to utilize the area? Will it add to the ability of hunters to enjoy their Constitutional Right to hunt in that area of Tennessee, or will it restrict it? Is it pandering to U.N. Agenda 21?

Man sent to prison for illegal gun sales
Worriedman replied to MikePapa1's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
How long before they start mandating a certain number of purchases WITHOUT selling them back off as a crime? Say he had bought the 210 firearms since 1995, but had sold none, with the new powers vested in the BATFE under the Patriot Act, they will have access to the sales records. How many guns constitute too many in the current administration's eyes? -
The Constitution vs The Constitution, proud of my wife
Worriedman replied to Sky King's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Don't both sides just get a set number of dismissal chances, they don't get to keep going ad infinitum do they? -
I want to see the real data. Were they manufactured in the U.S. and shipped to a third country under auspices of a U.S. Government give away to those third party countries, then sold to Mexican cartels by those third parties? I suspect that once the truth comes out, this is not Joe Six Pack making a few bucks selling AR 15's a couple at a time.

Try it again, no idea what happened. And Sgt., I think it has more to do with driving the economy off the cliff, and spreading the misery than trying to keep the fat cats flush, but that is just me.

Simply amplification of the class structure in TN. SOME citizens get more privileges than others. Helps if you have the ear of the Legislature, us 'ol common citizens need to pony up the money via taxes and hush, they have OUR best interest at heart.

Jose Guerena Shot 60 times by Swat in his Home
Worriedman replied to JG55's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Dolomite_supafly's post is spot on. To GhstFace38's question on the information release, here is an article that chronicles the questions involving the concerns. Brodesky: Tucson deserves to know more about Guerena shooting Original Press release by Pima County. Pima County Sheriff's Department :: Officer Involved Shooting Article posting information by Officer's attorney. Attorney: SWAT raid found guns, body armor A pertinent quote from the article by the attorney for the Officers , Michael Storie when speaking of the articles found during the resulting execution of the search warrant: The piece of "uniform" found was a baseball cap with "Border Patrol" emblazoned on it, and could have been purchased legally in many locations.Press Release from May 18th: http://pimasheriff.org/files/9213/0574/4466/Officer_Involved_Shooting_Update.pdf Personally, I think that the sooner all the real facts come out the better, I see no prudence in keeping the records sealed. With the media attention this one is getting, it would seem that a release of records would tend to calm down the gathering storm. -
Indiana repeals the 4th amendment?????
Worriedman replied to Will Carry's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I think it is very plausible that he did NOT have time to know they were LE, if you or I were dead asleep after a 12 hour shift at work, and the wife wakes you up and says there are armed men outside the house, I suspect you grab your weapon first. He had time to try and put his wife and child in a safe place and THEN try to ascertain what the threat was, then the door come off the hinges, he is still in his house and they see the rifle and shoot, a lot. In the video, you hear someone call for "Lights" then the siren starts just before they get to the door. The video is proof that the lights and siren were NOT running as they pulled up, nor the whole time they were in front of his house. If they were looking for evidence of criminal activity, they are not going to give that kind of prior warning, allowing an opportunity to flush said evidence or give him a chance to dodge out the back and run. There has been too much posting of information then retracting it here. I have worked nights, and so have you. The curtains are drawn in the day light, and you are not at your rational best just being woken up. AZ is different than TN, it is rife with armed home invasions, folks that live there know that. His wife's family had lost members to home invasions by criminals, I would suspect they have a different view such a situation occurring than that of someone living here. They hit the siren after getting in position, (I have that same siren on my coyote caller as a locator) a few seconds later they bust the door down. No warrior in his right mind is going to try and fight 6-8 SWAT Officers, with his wife and child behind sheet rock a few feet away. It has been nearly a month since the action took place, if they had intel that showed him to be a member of a "bad guy" gang, they would be looking to take the heat off by publishing it.
