We already live in a world without police. Waiting for the police to arrive is foolhardy. You gotta be your own security force. Now, what's your strategy for non lethal protection? Have you thought about martial arts training? It's a good workout.

Tweet from the mayor of McAllen. I lived there for 20 years and never witnessed anything like that. The “chainsaw man” has been arrested. We will not tolerate such conduct in our City of McAllen. We apologize to the protesters that were threatened by him. That is not what we do or who we are!

I was trying to figure out why anyone was afraid of their vehicle being turned over and then realized you need a proper truck to match that new shootin' iron. Nothing screams leave me the fuck alone than an F350 dually diesel. I'd lift it but if you're a bit short that might not work for you. I'm partial to the Texas edition. Have you started preppen' food?

Once you get the feel of that cold steel in your hands the fear goes away. Stare down those paper villains at the gun range and strut down any street in Kansas like you're Andy and Opie in Mayberry. If you start feeling scared again think about a dozen 9mm in your holster. That's better than a blue diamond to put a little lead in the old pencil. 1. So think about where you are going to store your gun when you are driving. Think, can I reach this if my car is turned over? 2. Elevators will not save you. Even if the elevators are turned off, buildings have stairs. Pro tip - think about the fire escape. Every path could be blocked. Carry extra clips. 3. "Normal" people have been owning guns in this country for hundreds of years. All those Revolutionary War heroes in our textbooks? Gun Owners. Civil War heroes? Gun Owners. Founding Fathers? Gun Owners. Charles Manson? Not a gun owner. Jeffery Dahmer? Not a gun owner. John Gacey? Not a gun owner. I think you have to redefine who you think is normal pards. 4. They already are. So stay indoors and look as white and straight as possible. Learn all the white supremacy hand signals. An orange glow is an extra nice touch if you feel threatened. And of course, vote.

I actually mention a couple more options in that thread. You need to hold a couple, fire a few if they will allow it. A couple NRA or gun stickers in the window will scare away a lot of folks up there. Here, they just blend in. Keep in mine while there may be a handgun hunting season, it will be better to get a shotgun to really fill that freezer.

The key is to practice. I enjoy a nice afternoon outside at the ranch, but a range is great for meeting people. I'm certain there is a good gun shop near you and most gun dealers employee folks that can guide you to the right choice. It has to feel good in your hand.

Bless your heart life sure is confusing, and shocking, there in K-State. Is that 9 plus the deceased or 10 plus the deceased?

I already got you covered back on May 23rd. You have to protect yourself from that exotic ice cream eating governor.

Exactly, crazies with chain saws. Why anyone, especially someone with a family, would take their chances without a gun is beyond my understanding. Add in cops that may or may not help you. No need to be helpless.

Luckily you are in a state that makes concealed carry easy as can be. No need to depend on the police when you can defend yourself.

Ripping off a Facebook friend's post Man, white folks all over social media are big mad today. It's like they're all uncomfortable and angry about people making assumptions about their character because of their skin color, and I even saw where some of them don't feel safe to go out into the streets because they're white. Man, that must be a b****, huh?

Will There Be a 2020 Season?
We are allowing most businesses to operate at 50% capacity as of yesterday. So why not stadiums. I'll have to call Kapkomet and meet him for a game

Comm Arts is a magnet school in my district. I can tell you he has to be a really smart kid. It's an all AP curriculum with really high standards. I taught next door and had their students on my golf team.

2020 Catch-All
One of my favorites just turned in the final project an hour ago. Great kid. The past two months he worked his butt off auditioning and getting a portfolio in to be accept at a fashion design college in New York. I told him he was good for the year but wanted to finish and keep his A in the class.

If you are looking for an easy one size fits all approach it isn't out there. Unfortunately we're trying to use the same law and punishment system on everyone. That doesn't work.

2020 Catch-All
In three hours the school year will officially end and I can't take any more late assignments. We'll see who has really cut it to the last second. So far 12:25 was the last. One of my players who I also had for English.

I'm certain there are some that is to put three meals a day on the table and they feel like they aren't welcome in society. I also believe some have a choice and made a bad one. I find it impossible to paint them all with the same brush. But you seem to not have a problem at all combining them all in one group.
