I don't see how that candidate was 'tested' at all. That looked more like a demo to me.
I disagree. Officer safety is the responsibility of the Officer, protecting our rights as citizens to not suffer this kind of abuse is as much our...
This. If you didn't feel bad, that would be a problem.
How many spouses, parents, siblings, or anyone that cares deeply for someone being critically tested would want to see that? My son might go...
Private, open only to BBs. Students are challenged and stressed, both physically and mentally (much more so with teens and adults). There are...
Exactly my thinking. What I'm trying to get at with this thread is what holds and grabs? What are the most common attacks?
It'd be on-site, lunchtime sessions, probably 45 minutes 1-2 times per week for a month or two. That's why I think the lawyers'll never go for it.
A few of the folks I work with have been after me for a while to put together a series of sessions that'll serve two purposes: give them an intro...
Would you point to a good representation?
I'm picking up my concealed carry permit later today (in Massachusetts, not really easy to get at all). I will be purchasing a pistol soon, after...
Yes, I can. You made a blanket statement, with a parenthetical probably, and are using that to rebut being called on it. The "whatever" is...
I've been teaching and assisting in kids classes since the mid '80s. I stand by my characterization of "pathetic", but to be perfectly clear, the...
Blanket statements like these are troublesome, and often wrong. The school I'm at has been in existence for 20 years, is the sole source of...
As I indicated earlier, I've sought opinions on other forums. The "why not" I've heard from those sources is that the lawful carrier hasn't...
I've been looking at this issue on a firearms forum I frequent. The general consensus there, from carriers as opposed to LEOs, is to say nothing...
What are your thoughts on informing/not informing an LEO during a traffic stop the you are carrying concealed? My question pre-supposes that...
In Mass. a firearms safety class is required from a State Police certified instructor, clear felony record/no convictions punishable by more than...
Seasoned, I'm with you. I want to feel safe when stopped, and I'd also like to accommodate the LEO. Pulling over so they're not out in traffic,...
I think I understand the spirit and intent of what you're saying, but have to disagree (from my non-LEO perspective) with a few points: speaking...
I wasn't required to write anything, and I'm not sure I would have if asked. My rank is a very personal thing, and it has many meanings to me....
Lots of good suggestions! When I work alone, I find I get the most value when I visualize the target (I imagine little, red cross-hairs...
I have a yin-yang symbol with two kanji (chikara & yuuki, strength & courage) replacing the small circles internal to the symbol. Like JT, I...
Nothing directly, yet. Gas is a little under $3, groceries are a little high. Heating oil hasn't dropped like gasoline has, though it has come...
Cute pup, congratulations! Needs more belly, though. I'm sure you'll fix that. We just adopted a middle-aged lab from a family with too many...
Hey, wait a minute! I'm going to be smart, too! Farrakhan is a racist, plain and simple. The more characters of his ilk associate with Obama,...
As I indicated in that other thread, maybe you should have dealt with it where and with whom it occured, and not let it cloud up the current...
They're your words, not mine. Please point out where I criticised other countries, as I'm quite sure I haven't. Failing that, perhaps you...
Tez3, It seems pretty obvious that you don't like America much, or maybe just American government and policy. OK, fair enough. Yet in the...
You're absolutely correct. My point is that any sovereign nation is ultimately responsible for its' own government and practices, regardless of...
I've always cast my vote with (or against) a major party, so as to have it "count". This time, as in all others (I think), my state will...
Separate names with a comma.
