Can someone tell me under which enumerated power a weapons ban would fall?
Please correct me if my history isn't quite right: My understanding is that the GFSZA was challenged in US v. Lopez, and was found unconstitutional. After that time, Congress altered the act to add verbiage about guns...
A friend just forwarded information about an upcoming "Occupy Indianapolis". It looks as though it's scheduled for 10/8/11 at 12pm. This should be interesting:

This is pretty interesting. It seems that 911 emergency services will soon accept text messages, videos, photos, etc.

It makes me wonder whether folks in Illinois and Massachusetts can sue the gov under wiretap laws... the same laws they use against...
I've seen several mentions of QIK on INGO. Actually, I'm pretty sure I've promoted it myself at some point.
For those of you who aren't familiar with it, QIK is a video recording application for smartphones. It allows you to stream (relatively) live video to the 'net and save it there...
Something in the last page of the thread below is broken. I can view the first page, but the last is blank white. Same thing on every browser... no HTML at all.

This woman is a friend of a dear friend of mine. If you're near Danville or Raccoon Lake, please take a moment to watch this newscast.

House Speaker Announces Fines For Absence - Newsroom - Inside INdiana Business with Gerry Dick
So it seems they're going to start fining absent legislators $250/day. I love the retort from Battles:
Funny, I've been telling the gov for years that my high taxes are only serving to "continue the...
I haven't used this UPS in more than a year (model # SU1000NET). The battery has swollen, and I can't remove it. I put the cover back on and plugged it in... no lights come on. So if you know anything about these and can repair it, it's yours for free. At a minimum, you can probably use it...
So the TSA doesn't like it that a pilot posts videos to YouTube showing their security to be a farce. What do they do? They get a sheriff's deputy to take away his carry permit. Seriously.
I like what the former CEO of American Airlines has to say in this interview.

How does the accuracy compare for pistol caliber reloads vs. cheap range ammo like WWB, vs. typical high quality self defense ammo. Let's assume the reloader get high quality components and has a decent amount of experience.
I realize there are tons of factors here... a generalization is fine.
I've seen quite a few people here claim that it's illegal to discharge a weapon within Indianapolis city limits. However, my understanding is that the law in question makes it illegal within "old" city limits, prior to incorporation.
I've read through the municipal code 451-2. (Municode.com |...
I had a weird thought while I was leaving the polls today. Whenever I'm thinking about a contentious issue, I try to put myself in the other person's shoes. So, as we will probably witness a bit of a swing back toward the conservative side in this election cycle, it got me to thinking about...
I've never heard of anyone using isopropyl alcohol to clean a gun. Hickock45 uses balistol on the barrel and alcohol on the frame and slide. Granted, he uses the alcohol sparingly... he mostly uses a dry toothbrush.
Questions:
Is isopropyl alcohol appropriate? I wonder how it performs versus...
I'm sure this has probably come up before, but I'm curious about the percentages of people open carrying full-size versus compact, and also extra mags. I know this is going to be a bit of a mish-mash, since I'm asking about mags and backup guns as well. But that's OK.
Feel free to add...
