      Jim Spence, J&S Guns in Evansville, has passed away

      Brian from J&S So does anyone know if they are up and running again? I hate to try and message or call them if they were not.

      Stand your ground ruled unconstitutional

      Since the principle was that the burden was to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt they would have to prove that you did such an action without just cause. There was no principle requiring that you had to prove you did anything legally, the burden was upon the government to prove that your...

      Stand your ground ruled unconstitutional

      It may not be "convenient" and sometimes a "bad guy" may not face justice but wasn't it Franklin who quoted, or paraphrased the statement "that it is better one hundred guilty persons should escape than that one innocent person should suffer?" Shouldn't the burden always be upon the government...

      Indiana Court of Appeals and Handgun Possession

      Thanks guys. I saw the arguments online but then nothing indicating when a decision would be made.

      Strickly Shooting of Evansville

      I second J&S for transfers. Have done two guns through him over the past couple years, always a nice fellow.

      IN police shatter car window, extract passenger after alleged seatbelt violation

      It is nonsense. While in the vehicle the attacker has limited options, the most "dangerous" is driving away or using the vehicle has a weapon. From inside the vehicle he has limited lanes of fire. The threat to the officer depends a lot on where the officer is standing in regards to those...

      IN police shatter car window, extract passenger after alleged seatbelt violation

      So was the passenger wearing a seat belt? I can't quite tell from the video and didn't see it in the article.

      If you saw this guy, would you shoot him?

      You sure about that? I believe the stats say that officer fatalities are declining (percentage wise and at a 50 year low).

      7th Circuit Upholds Warrantless Entry to Seize Gun

      I never understood calling the police for a person threatening suicide (if he is only threatening himself). You almost guarantee "suicide by cop". It seems kind of stupid if the goal is for the person NOT to die.

      The Open Carry Argument

      :dunno: Constitution doesn't require you to have permission by the fed or state. It is your "state" granted permission to open carry "with a permit". Oh and :welcome:

      Heavy Police Response to.... A Tattoo?????

      The hamilton ave murders in 06? Looking at the spreadsheet it seems their focus is on mass killings where the criminal's motivation was more of a mental health issue whereas in the hamilton case the motive appears to be robbery. Which means any mass killings where the perpetrator was the...

      Heavy Police Response to.... A Tattoo?????

      You have to include the V day massacre even though it is "mob related" - they were criminals after all and violent ones. Same as any of the other ones listed. Motivations may be different but principle is the same. Here is a better breakdown of mass "shootings" since 1982: US Mass Shootings...

      Heavy Police Response to.... A Tattoo?????

      Actually: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/26/us/us-prison-populations-decline-reflecting-new-approach-to-crime.html?pagewanted=all Not really that impressive in my opinion but a small decline. More importantly and much more relevant since you mention "violent" (of course a gun isn't required...

      Heavy Police Response to.... A Tattoo?????

      Thank you :) You beat me to it :) and there are quite a few more. A simple google of school shootings pulls up school shootings going back past 2000. We've also had several acts of "terrorism" including "domestic terrorism" prior to 9/11 and yes they did "blow up federal buildings" (TM...

      Heavy Police Response to.... A Tattoo?????

      Well... back in "the day" police would respond with caution but not with the "rapid dominance" aka "shock and awe" that we see more and more . Usually an officer and a backup (or just one unit if two man and there isn't a report of any actual shooting going on). Other officers in the area...
