    Just for some background, Outlook is this little village of the damned completely over run by gangs between Granger and Sunnyside. It's about 500 people, about 20% of which are gang members, doesn't have 24hr LEO coverage, and has several shootings reported every week...

    Can we create a list for the Brady Bunch?

    imported post I think since the Brady Bunch likes to create the lists of "criminal" use of X-type of weapons, we should do one on open carry, since it's the latest evil thing. Since the 50BMG list doesn't actually mention anyone shot with one, I think they might actually carry a list we provide...

    imported post I think this will be a good test of how far you can go with force and defense of home. This guy shot at a car as they were driving away! Yet there is no mention of his arrest, just the crooks. http://www.kndo.com/Global/story.asp?S=11910288

    Positive OC comment

    imported post I just got back from the convenience store, and the guy complimented my gun and asked what I needed to do that. I told him I don't need anything to do it, but wasn't sure about him, since he only is a permanent resident. I know that law was changed recently about non-citizens...
