Re: HB48: Passed
doesn't the law already allow a CHL that hasn't been expired for more than a year count as a renewal?

Re: HB48: Passed
I am all kinds of confused with this.... Someone please help... I PCS'd last November and I never got the chance to go to a CHL Class before I left. My current CHL expires 10 Aug of this year (Less then 1 month till this law goes into effect), will I be able to renew without the class? What if I sta...

Re: Fiesta TX SA TX
I visited this park a few weeks ago. A few observations: - Their website has a policy on weapons . Firearms, ammo, knives, and pepper spray are on it. - Absolutely no 30.06 signs. - No gun buster signs, or generic "no guns" signs either. - They have metal detectors setup at the entrance. ...

Re: 8th-grader suspended, arrested, charged for NRA shirt
I read on his first day back to school he wore the very same shirt BUT 100 of his like minded friends wore similar shirts as well. Didn't ever hear anything as far as repercussions though...

Re: SCOTUS rules against warrantless DWI blood draws
If we know that BAC changes at the rate of 2% per hour and it takes four hours to get the warrant and take the sample, can't the DA argue in court that the true BAC is 8% higher than the measured BAC? After all, it's scientifically valid. I thought that was already the case in multiple jurisdiction...

Re: Interesting
You keep saying we don't know if the cops had RS or not but I submit, if they had RS of a violation of law, when asked why would they not indicate what section of law tehy suspected him of violating? Why would they blurt out "rudely displaying a firearm?" I mean doens't that go to credibi...

Re: Interesting
JSThane, Well said. I hope you'll stick around contribute more in some of our other discussions. :iagree: But none of this happened. And you know this how? You know exactly what was reported?These cops should be familiar with the area judges and know what they accept as RS and are trained to be abl...

Re: Interesting
You keep muddying the waters between RS and PC... RS is needed for a Terry Stop (including a simple frisk for weapons for Officer safety). However PC is needed in every circumstance (other then a consent search). Whether that PC has to be relayed to a judge for a warrant is excepted in few circumsta...

Re: Interesting
A search based on what? Better get a warrant!!! When I said search I was referring to Terry which also says you don't need a warrant with RS. Um, without consent you need a warrant unless a few exigent circumstances exist... Regardless PC is needed for a search/search warrant, not RS... I believe y...

Re: Interesting
Everyone who thinks thats what the cop will report as his RS , that the guy was "walking with a gun" and that's it needs to get a grip. Report? That is basically giving him a pass to lie... How about "What specific set of facts gave him RS" because its the facts, not what he rep...

Re: Interesting
How can you articulate that I am being detained if you don't tell me what crime you suspect me of? Whats supposed to stop me from walking off? Just because you tell me I'm detained? How long are we going to stand there and stare at each other? Not to you, they must be able to do so for a court. To ...
