Shootings in El Paso and even Dayton now. The solution? Cops can't be everywhere, so it's up to free men to learn to shoot and get CCW permits. Refuse to be a victim!!! SW

Heat dome over central N. America ain't moved in over 21 days...

I think the high temperatures push some of the borderline types over the edge.
It ain't confined to the states though. We got our share up here that shoot way inappropriately- 4 over the last 3 weeks, and I'm making little effort to be informed.

Regards,

Doc Sharptail

and they want to blame the gun.

a human can kill without a gun but a gun can not kill without a human.

Walmart now sez no open carry in their stores even if it's legal. Licensed concealed carry people are still welcome. I personally don't care for open carry unless I'm actively hunting, but wally just lost my biz. It's just another knee jerk, feel good solution that solves exactly nothing.

Not that I shop there much anymore. For gro, the locally owned Co-op is cheeper on a lot of things, and the meat is darn sure fresher. SW

ya - no pistols , 'short barreled rifles' [you gotta have a tax stamp for those already] or ammo for them , so i been thinkin , i have long rifles with wood and lever actions that shoot pistol caliber ammo - so i think that makes it long barreled rifle ammo , same with 'short barreled rifle ammo' ,

least you should be able to get some deals they are going to clear their inventory before implementing the new policy

If only they would just out law all guns we won't have to worry about it. Oh wait, that didn't work for prohibition either. :Dbounce:
