Not true.

I've seen enough war movies and cop shows to know that, unless they are central to the plot, a person who is shot anywhere on their entire body with any caliber bullet immediately drops dead.

This patently false information, and you should know better, Joe Perez.








They do not drop dead. Usually they fly backward by several feet, often through the nearest plate glass window.

Sanders seeks 'middle ground' on guns
lol banning the most popular selling rifles today that constitute less than 2% of ATF traces is some middle ground. Does he want to take the "middle ground" on abortion by banning birth control?

Does this count as a high-capacity magazine?

Gun shop owner in Florida has declared his store a "muslim free zone" in response to the shootings in Chattanooga. I laughed but he is in for a world of hurt when the DOJ gets involved.

this is literally the start of Rambo:



officer asks these guys to leave the city because the townsfolk dont want them here.

two fun quotes from her:

You need to leave the city.
I'm not trying to run you out of the city.

its legal to open carry in FL while youre fishing.

these people were fishing:


it's not legal to conceal that weapon if you dont have a CCW permit, which the officer orders them to do with the weapons...

it's weird that a cop can enforce laws that he has absolutely no clue about in the first place.

An interesting article from that great bastion of leftist thinking:

so flawed.

In the carjacking scenario, for instance, the police officer draws his gun, takes cover, and issues verbal commands to the would-be carjacker.
one problem: the police officer is not present in this "real-life" scenario.

plus when a carjacker walks up on you, you arent just standing there with your gun drawn. no assailant is going to sit there and yell at you with his hand on his gun and then pull it on someone that's already wielding.



they didn't shoot armed assailants until they were already being shot at.
OH JIMINY CRICKETS!!!!



In the armed robbery situation, again the officer ducks for cover and waits until bystanders are out of the way before engaging the assailants.
no he doesnt. they both shoot at exactly the same instance--after all bystanders are out of the way...

The officer just happens to shoot the guy in the back of the head and the other person drops to the ground.

the civilian happened to shoot the closest robber, and the simulator was designed to have the other one fire at you instead of surrendering.


Requiring gun owners to be trained and licensed, similar to what we require of say, automobile drivers, may be in a middle area that more people could agree on.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2013 firearms (excluding BB and pellet guns) caused 84,258 nonfatal injuries (26.65 per 100,000 U.S. citizens) [2] and 11,208 deaths (3.5 per 100,000).[3]

On average in 2012, 92 people were killed on the roadways of the U.S. each day in 30,800 fatal crashes.[1]

TIL: an officer has reasonable suspicion that your gun might be possessed illegally if you posses a gun.

so is he getting stopped for a traffic offense, or being "suspicious" open carrying a gun?





then listen to him cry like a little ******* baby ***** with a tiny little ***** dick on why he illegally seized property.

cops must thing they are so ******* important that everyone in the world wants to kill them. surprised they dont just join isis or something.

more rapists hassling people following the law.


cop steals this guys permit card.

no where in the law does it say you are required to carry and/or show your permit: https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/ACO/chapter/661.91.pdf

also, a cop can't seize property without a warrant or probable cause it was used in commision of a crime.

but it is nice the the King made an appearance outside his castle today to go invent laws that day.



the hand shake at the end was ******* retarded. i wonder if this sherrif had another deputy arrest his for, now, not having any sort of permit. [even though it's still not required to be displayed be law]

Brain, out of curiosity, do you have your CCL/CCW/etc whatever they want to call it out there?

Just wondering, I'm about to go get mine this week and purchase a pistol. Not that I want to carry it 24/7 (that would inhibit my bar schedule) mainly for the house and road trips.
