Because we allowed it.

When facing a large group of attackers, I would say you start with the basic premise of "shoot to stop the threat." Since we know that it can often take more than one bullet to stop just one attacker, and you will have a limited quantity of bullets with you, as well as limited time to disc...

You cannot close all of the loopholes people could use to kill other people. That is just how it is. This is why you are supposed to hire qualified security personnel instead of high school drop outs and convicted sex offenders to handle airport security.

Well, they make the rules and have sole authority to interpret the rules, so of course it is all perfectly justified!!

There is none, which is why we need to invent one!!

Saw that last year. Some ijit turned in his grandpa's WWII 1911 to get melted into some artwork. :hammer: Speaks rather poorly of the knowledge of the priviliged few who can own guns to look at something historical like that and think it's best to melt it down. I guess the plan is that in the futur...

Not sure of his motives, so hero may be a strong word. What I can say is that he exposed somethig that we have known for a long time and have not been able to prove it or get any level of traction to actually see what was going on. What the NSA and other agencies are doing is unreasonable, unethical...

"GOCRA is strongly recommending that gun owners stay away from the event." Sounds like a request, not an order.. ;) This. Many on here confuse their rights to free speech with effective lobbying and/or public negotiating. And often do more harm than good. Your opinion and choices in how t...

At the time Ventura seemed much more able to form cogent thoughts. Not quite sure what happened. At the end ofthe day though, he treated the governors mansion the same as the wrestling ring. Can't spend your entire political career picking fights with everyone.. Wait.... Can't be a non-democrat and ...

A right to be in a given place does not equal a right to cause or wantonly escalate a conflict to violence.

We owe it to ourselves to not resort to calling in the big guns for every possible situation. Very well said. I feel that we have become so confrontation averse that we are wanting other people to deal with all of our problems. Neighbor smoking a cigar on their deck and it's blowing into my yard? C...

I disagree jshuberg. Often times when the cops are called it makes the situation worse, far beyond what people expected when they first called the cops. The cops are the big guns and they will do things however they see fit, often without accountabilty. A certain amount can be predicted by knowing t...

GZ could have also not inserted himself into a situation where he was provoking TM. I don't know to what level GZ was provoking, but he is far from blameless in the whole debacle. That does not excuse a physical attack by TM, not in the least, but again, as a gun owner GZ has an obligation to behav...

I'm surprised it took this long for someone to try that excuse.
