Re: Can you afford to defend yourself ???
Here, I can save yo $49000. Pay $1000 to become a life member of the NRA and they will refund all legal fees once found not guilty or acquitted. Best insurance money can buy.

Re: Hiring a lawer for a shooting
I know we have all learned that if we are ever involved in a shooting ( feared for our life) we should say nothing and hire an attorney but this got me thinking. If you knew you were 100% in the right and it was a legal shoot, would you spend the money on an attorney ? If money was no object it is ...

Re: My TABC Phone Call
First off, good for you - thank you for doing that and stepping up! He stated that the 51% and no carry for a CHL was ridiculous to begin with. I can't believe he said this - Anyways, I don't know where I lie with this. Part of me likes this law because it prevents reckless CHL holders from getting...

My TABC Phone Call
I called the local TABC office to report a store that I felt displayed a non-compliant Red 51% sign. The store I have issue with sells for on and off premise consumption, however, there is no way possible that 51% of her sales come from on premise consumption. The gentleman I had on the phone was ve...

Re: Is there a comfortable way to carry?
Belly band for me. In the winter I wear it outside my shirt as I always wear a vest. It works handy as a decoy also using the following scenario: Bad guy walks up and is wielding a knife or gun. You quickly say, "i have $1000 cash in my pocket" while reaching to the inside of the vest like...

Re: Should the law be changed?
Let me ask this then while we are on the subject. There is a convenient store that sell the usual. They also have a grill where you can order burgers and such. The owner will also sell beer, but she has a two beer limit for all customers. Now, with that said, I go to this store daily (because it is ...

Should the law be changed?
I've been reading the penal code over and over and there is just one section that baffles me. It's the 51% sign. Does anyone know what the thought process was when they wrote that you can not carry in an establishment that has 51% of their sales coming from alcohol? I understand a bar. We all know t...
