I have my mag-lite, a smith&wesson knife folder on my belt clip, and many years of boxing. Pick your punishment criminals!

He was in law enforcement.. In TX. u have the right to defend yourself and your property, this is a great law.. A few yrs back in my area, a hunter came out of the woods he was archery hunting there was a criminal trying to steal his stero out of his trk, he drew back and pierced him with an arrow.. the criminal was dead, no charges filed. Now any wood be thiefs that read that article wood think twice, PA hunter would have done this off to prison.
Catch a criminal in your home and shoot him. Just make sure he is dead. Then call the cops. Of course in some states, you would be better of if the criminal kills you and then gets caught the police. Makes one kind of wonder about laws and protection doesn't it.

I consider laws to be general guidelines for my consideration.

Did you know that they are attempting to pass legislation that would make it an automatic death penalty (no judge's discretion) to kill any of the following: sitting Congressmen, sitting Senators, any member of the President's cabinet, and some public officials (such as high-ranked IRS, DEA, ATF, etc.)...

I wonder who they're afraid of??

They should be running scared after 50 years of special interests and special favors while this country falls apart. They don't have much to worry about now, but allow the country to continue on the same degenerative path, they will have lots of enemies. A hungry people can be a vicious people.

Here's one for ya. Anyone carry a paintball gun. Close range those buggers hurt. I'll bet the target balls, I think they're just rubber, would hurt more.

Make them think twice.

I know laws vary from state to state, but I was told that a stun gun is illegal...although a Sheriff told me that if it was used in self defense, I would not get in trouble.
BUT YOU CAN GO BUY A GUN LEGALLY...go figure...laws

I have a tire thumper,but I also have one of those $5 tiny useless fire extiguishers you buy at Wal-Mart that are about the size of a standard 2-d flashlight. Ain't had to use it yet,but I'd say it'll burn as much as mace and no officer has even come close to saying anything about it.
