He just came across as a badass in several roles.

I just glanced over it a few minutes ago. Section 3 (i) mentions clarifying the definition for FFL and requiring that background check. No surprise there I'm amazed it hasn't been done by now. But again with the whole rule thing if something is going to made illegal it should be voted on by the legislators. I think this is why we keep having these shenanigans with rulings like bump stock or braces.

I'm waiting on the designation that if you sell more than "x" number of guns you are considered to be a dealer. I could realistically see that coming with where a rule is made that anyone that sell more than say 2 guns a year you must be an FFL and comply with background checks.

What drone do you have? I use to fly a Mini SE for my last department and loved it. I'm thinking about getting back into it and buying my own, but I think I would go bigger.

Sound like a real life need for a pistol brace! For real sucks but I'm sure it can be done but I almost think you might need to try shooting pistols with your other hand. It's easy for me to say that being right-handed but left eye dominant I can shoot pistols with either hand no problem. But I'm trying to imagine having a solid grip missing that section of the middle finger may make things difficult. How far down are you talking like between first and second knuckle?

I have seen many officers over the years become more dependent on the taser. I was a taser instructor at one time and honestly, I have seen them not work more than they did work. Too many factors to get that desired effect. Loose baggy clothing, distance, firing while moving, or a dart missing completely. Now if you tase someone and they fall and bust their melon or whatever else it's on you. I gave it up after a few years. But it was always another option if appropriate depending on the situation.

I agree. I've been in law enforcement for 20 years and know the dangers associated and never asked for more than a paycheck. I believe we in law enforcement should not be the aggressor when it comes to deadly force except for those few instances such as active shooter. I'm not saying law enforcement officers shouldn't defend themselves but as a whole society expects you try to deescalate when possible but there isn't always that possibility. As this demand for de-escalation has grown it has caused officers to hesitate longer before using deadly force. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it can be depending on the situation and how people choose to react on both sides.

It is a double edge sword. You arrive and immediately neutralize a deadly threat people and the media slam you for not deescalating or say your trigger happy. You hesitate to try deescalating and hopefully talk people down from that edge they are on it can either work to resolve situation with no deadly force or bite you in the backside if they chose to keep on.

I think you are stretching it saying THP and TBI are trying to make laws.

I can assure you these questions have been asked.

Doesn’t apply here and I would bet they will appeal the decision.

Somebody’s going to get a check.

I think if more people understood the numbers of blood kits, DNA samples, and rape kits that were submitted and the time each takes and amount of forensic scientist they would be shocked. The new scientists will help but realistically you want a state lab it has to be funded and staffed to be the state lab.

I’m interested in getting a box or two of subsonic 556 or 223 rounds. Would prefer it would cycle properly. I have no first hand experience so I’m seeking opinions good or bad.

Been awhile since I did a pistol but I believe they should check the box that says firearm not pistol or rifle.

$50 wow. I've never heard of anyone above $25 for just a transfer. I would assume you know the reason why the issue even popped up and get it resolved so you don't have that problem again. Could be something as simple as a court disposition never submitted to the right people and it flags on the background.

I'm thinking about setting up a group to try this place for some boar hunting. Anyone here been there and if so, what did you think? Thanks

They are delicious and the light was on.

It’s to see in the cars and watch for behavior. I never used a spotlight just head lights in the past. People up to no good tend to have some pretty noticeable movements and expressions.

I read the letter from FRT's attorney wasn't bad. But I will tell I won't have attorney that uses gmail for his legal practice.

I've been thinking about getting a 48 but I love my 43x. I bought the 43x MOS when it came out.

Just my opinion from inside the broken system. First, mental health related issues are not law enforcement but medical in nature. Do away with the involuntary committal laws that make law enforcement rather than EMS or other healthcare related workers responsible for taking a person for “treatment” or even respond unless someone is in physical danger. Second, there must more investment in mental health treatment. Don’t know how the bill will be paid but I would suggest possibly teaming up with teaching universities to help. Third, some families and friends of people with mental illness need to be more involved with their people. I don’t think that is all but would be a start and I don’t believe we will ever have a magic fix.

I thought they put a hold on that after the pushback.

That is great. I’m sure he going to have prosperous career ahead of him after he reaches his education goals. I’m not a Gator fan but at least he kept it SEC!

Been there. Got hit by a drunk driver in 2010 while on a stop. Most led bars on patrol cars have a dim button you use at night so it isn’t as bright but good and visible.
