      Traffic stops?

      I gotcha. I'm not above admitting fault. I am going to change the way I approach traffic stops. Its going to take a little getting used to, but I can see your guys' side of the argument. I think as long as I can see a person's hands during a traffic stop, I am going to allow them to keep...

      Home Invasion

      Hey don't forget a strong door frame. I can say with certainty that every door I've seen kicked in, its the frame that always shatters and the deadbolt is still in the door and extended. I kicked in a door once when responding to a medical emergency. We saw the man collapse in the kitchen. Well...

      Traffic stops?

      Yea, I think from now on I'm not going to take the firearm on traffic stops. Although the part of town I normally work, usually people don't have permits haha. Thank you all for the insight. It helps to see the other side sometimes. I do appreciate it.

      Traffic stops?

      I am wrestling with this issue of whether or not to hold on to a firearm during an interaction when a person has a permit. I do understand that you have a right to protect yourself. The people who I have delt with who have had permits, have been very courteous and respectful. I think I will...

      Traffic stops?

      Roadie, You're right, I'm sorry for not reading your previous post, I am still new to this website. I am aware that honest gun owners are some of the most law abiding people around and I fully support their right to carry arms. In our academy they show us countless video's of officers getting...

      Traffic stops?

      so much for innocent until proven guilty? who is saying anyone is innocent or guilty? I'm just saying I don't trust strangers. And if they have a weapon with them I don't want to gamble with my life by letting them have it while I'm speaking with them. By letting someone hold on to their...

      Traffic stops?

      Well Sir, I do hold on to pocket knives if myself and the person I'm interacting with are both standing. On a traffic stop, where the person is seated, I would not take the pocket knife. Most times I cannot see them. The car keys would stay in the ignition, because I would not put myself in a...

      How would you react if ...

      First, haha I wouldn't be walking down an alley at night. But if I was to get in that situation, I would toss the wallet at him then reach for my firearm, and shoot him dead. Someone threatens your life, they should lose theirs.

      Bad Experience with Carmel PD

      Not cool that you were charged, nice of you not to shoot your neighbor's dog though. I love dogs, but I probably would have shot the thing. Did animal control take the dogs?

      Traffic stops?

      Just for my safety. I don't trust anyone. We learned in the academy that the bad guys are nice right up until the time they kill you. Sorry I try to be as polite as possible, and I return the weapon to the person as soon as we are finished talking.

      Traffic stops?

      I have had several people show me their carry permits and advise me they have a weapon in the vehicle. I usually ask where it is located, if its within reach of the driver I usually take hold of the firearm and hold it until the traffic stop is over. The honesty the person shows usually...

      Internet Tax Bill passed in Illinois

      Yea, I don't see how IL would be able to win that one. Its a sign of the times that they would try and charge an internet company taxes.

      Man seen with a hose nozzle, shot without warning by police

      Its easy to sit back now and break down every move the officers made, but those officers did not have the luxury of time on their side. Action is faster than reaction, he could have gotten a shot off at officers, had it been a gun, before officers could have returned fire. None of us can put...

      What very interesting places you have visited ?

      I just visited New Orleans this past Dec and had a great time! The food was woooonderful. Some of the French Quarter was a bit unsafe looking, so I carried a tactical pen just in case. We flew, or else I would have taken a sidearm. But other than that, the city was great! I would recommend it!
