When the national concealed carry talk heated up and all of the rhetoric got hotter I felt there’s a group of people who are being woefully ignored: the disabled. As the father of a disabled child who requires around-the-clock care, my daughter cannot “run and hide.” If ever faced with a life-or-death situation such as an active shooter, our options for running and hiding are very limited.
What I did was make a video outlining our situation as something people who are against concealed carry reciprocity might want to think about.

Has anyone here fitted a 1911 drop in barrel ,I’m sure they are not totally drop-in, and was wondering xsactly how hard is fitting the lug engagements, could I do this with just a file.
” there bots Dad, not real people.”
If you have never seen a real “wedding shotgun” you need too. I think the courthouse used to have a real one on display. Look em’ up online. They are collectiable.
The fix nics part of the bill will screw a lot of people. Once again we are screwed.
If I ever went to AC I’d want to be armed too. Too many mobsters and guidos.
I’ve been to Hotwells once. I never went back. Let’s just say that I’m not surprised.
Very sorry for the victim and his family.
Boycott New Joisey! Reminds me of the rabidly anti-gun Chicago aldermen scum. “Special” rules for special fools…
I’m sitting here watching Wheel of Fortune with 2 loaded pistols next to me. Yeah why not?!?????????????????
There are only 4 races. Caucoid, Negroid, Australoid and Asian. I wish for once in my effing life someone would write or talk about race and not say Hispanic, which is not a race. For God’s sake a little research goes a long way.
I’ve become a fan of Simplex (e.g., V-Line). Nothing’s perfect, but I like the idea of a purely mechanical device. Key is to practice. May not work for everybody, of course.
The problem with Mark Glaze is that he spouts his opinions as if they were facts. The ban of 1994 was ineffective although he would try to have you believe otherwise. He supports a nationwide gun “buy back” implying choice but in reality, it’s a gun confiscation. The most the government would pay would be 20 to 30 cents on the dollar. So for a firearm purchased for $1000.00, the government would only pay a maximum of $200.00 to $300.00. He was recently interviewed by Tucker Carlson when he proposed this ludicrous idea and Mr. Carlson asked him point blank what if people did not want to sell their guns back. Glaze responded with that a heavy fine would be imposed for non-compliance. So in effect, there is no voluntary gun buy back but a gun confiscation with a stipend attached to it.
Mr. Glaze cites countries like Australia that instituted a nationwide gun confiscation. They were able to do this because there is no right to keep and bear arms in Australia like there is in the United States. Mark Glaze could care less about violating law abiding citizen’s rights and wants to take their guns because they are an easy target. Most of the people he is targeting has legally bought and registered their firearms. So, they get a master list and start sending out letters telling people to turn in their firearms. He won’t go after the crooks that steal or illegally purchase them from other criminals. That is too hard with a chance of minimum results.
Glaze likes to throw around the term “assault weapons.” Glaze should actually look up the definition of an assault weapon which includes an fully automatic capability, e.g., the M-249 Squad Assault Weapon (SAW) which is fully automatic. Right now, the current rifle that is popular is the AR-15 that has many cosmetic similarities to it’s military counterpart, the M-16 and M-4 rifles. These cosmetic differences do not enhance the firearm’s ability to shoot any faster than without the cosmetic additions. If I was to take any semi-automatic rifle that looked nothing like the AR-15, I could still inflict as much damage simply because I am an excellent marksman and I don’t need a fore grip or plastic hand guards to be effective with it.
Blaze and his followers would have you believe he is in tune with the gun world. He is not and has some other agenda that will lead to the revocation of the 2nd Amendment and endorse gun confiscation.
Thanks for this fantastic post, I am glad I noticed this

F¥ck fingerprints, you ever been arrested,? two hours later your still, pressing firmly,wiping, pressing, now roll, try again, wipe, clean scanning screen, pressing firmly, now roll. “Well we will try again tomorrow”.: It was a whole lot easier with the ink.
My personal opinion:
Use a large safe to guard the majority of your guns. The ones that are out, potentially stashed around if you don’t have kids or whatever, are guarded by the gun you have on you and, preferably, some dogs.
The absolute best way to secure your firearm is to have another firearm with which you shoot the bastard trying to steal the first gun.
I’m sure purists are howling, but the Thompson actually looks pretty slick suppressed imo
Every one of you gunhumping Drumpf-lovers in garbage ‘america’ will be publicly executed as a warning.
I made one…but mine uses a flare to alert the neighbours…we live in a rural area.
“And don’t get drawn into those online discussions. They’re a waste of your time and theirs.”
Disagree. These sorts of discussions are neither for your or your opponent’s benefit. It is for the benefit of people observing the discussion. For people who have no firm opinion or whom are open to different viewpoints, such discussions–if done rightly–can help them understand and be less likely to be affected by the scare tactics of the antis.
I feel at least a second and fourteenth amendment violation as well as a headache from their pure stupidity. But hey, it’s just the constitution, why should we care about that…?
Sorry but that story feels made up.
