    That stuff is no joke lol. Way back when I was a teenager, I was at a friend's farm working on their lawnmower. They had some geese running around and the one started attacking me. I didn't wanna kill it, or severely hurt it, but I wasn't going to continue fighting with it. I had some brake cleaner close by and sprayed that goose in the eyes. I never saw such a carrying on by any animal since that day. It put its head down in the dirt and walked backwards dragging its head trying to get that stuff out his eyes.

    Fortunately it didn't go blind, but apparently it didn't learn it's lesson either. It did the same thing to another person they tell me

    I’ve not bought any in a few years, I usually buy mine at Borders in Kentucky. Couple pounds a week since they have a 1 pound limit…

    I didn't read all the responses, but if it hasn't been mentioned yet get a flare gun. They make a nice big fiery hole. What do I have this for, officer,? Well last summer i broke down in the arizona desert miles from nowhere and it was a holiday to boot! Figured this would've helped me attract attention and some help, if that ever happens again. Why do I have a life preserver that you find on boats? Well I'm I was going over the gw just last week and I could feel it shaking, and that just got me to thinking... Why do I have this new unopened box of 12 prophylactics? Well, that's a long story...

    You mean someone who stops having his head slammed into concrete using deadly force by someone who attacked him, while under the influence of Skittles ? Then being arrested 6 weeks later by over zealous Prosecuter looking to advance their career by deception ?

    Ok i can LIVE though that........

    There is no such law making carrying a firearm on a federal highway illegal. On military bases it is up to DoD policy & Base Commander. Telling stories about military bases prior to Sept 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, later the several multiple shootings on military bases are not applicable to now & after those events. Just hearing an accurate story does not buy anyone safety if the show up to a military base that plays hardball with unauthorized guns. How a military handled that event in 1992 in Kansas tells you nothing about Joint Base Andrew's outside of DC now. But fell free to bet your liberty on such stories, some of which may be true.

    Currently i think there are 32 or 38 states with constitutional carry, I live in MA so I have a MA permit, and I believe you can get a non resident with a live fire course, forget about NY and NJ though, NH, VT, and ME are actually included in the CC

    If I’m not allowed to carry somewhere, per federal law, it’s to be unloaded, and placed into the lock box with the ammo stored separate and out of reach of the driver.

    I actually have a small safe mounted somewhere in the truck, actually works great so I can keep some emergency cash in there as well Incase I need it, now if I’m stopped somewhere sketchy for the night, I may or may not put one in the chamber, but It’s quick to clear it and toss it back in the safe if one of the revenue douchebags decides to knock on the door
