My father just ran into this. He was in the hospital to have his gall bladder removed and when he went in for a follow-up visit post-surgery they "had" to ask him these questions. He was pretty annoyed (justifiably so).

I am in the market for an EDC. I hadn't given Kahr much consideration up until now. This principled decision has me reevaluating their product line.

Does anyone have a link to a transcript of the ruling by chance?

Even then it would depend upon the rental contract.

I didn't mean that she sounded "unprofessional" moreso that she sounded like she didn't know what she stands for. She was waffling on some rather serious policy positions regarding the "security vs. privacy" debate.

Yeah, I saw the video of Nancy Mace's interview last night and I was not at all impressed. She does not look ready for the big leagues.

Whether one subscribes to the NAP or a justified force theory has no bearing on whether or not he was right or wrong in the use of force. The people that ordered the invasion of Iraq clearly did not follow the NAP, that doesn't justify their actions.

No, I'm sorry but justified use of lethal force in self-defense does not rationally extend that far. By that rationale any person whose ever been compelled to pay taxes or a parking ticket could shoot up a mall because it could be assumed they were all complicit in the apparatus of the state.

He could have walked past him for multiple reasons, this hardly is conclusive proof he had targets in mind. The fact, however, that he started shooting before he was even in the building to me indicates that he was not overly concerned with the safety of bystanders when trying to take out any...

It was a town hall meeting but that doesn't mean everyone there exercises the force of government. There could have been protesting anarchists there or maybe a pacifist simply trying to inform themselves on local happenings, he didn't know that. If he was, as some here seem to purport...

Because in any event he was a dead man. He was either going to die assaulting people, die defending his property, or rot away in jail. If you get to the point you're contemplating a mass shooting I think you'd realize those are your only options. The state will not let you win and walk away...

When government pushes people to their limit, it's unsurprising that they push back. Though this would have been more poignant had he defended his property from armed thugs rather than shooting up a room full of unarmed people.

Boman runs for a position almost every election cycle it seems, it's mostly to try to spread libertarian ideas.

I've met Mr. Boman a few times through C4L and I keep up with him on FB. From what I could gather from his posts yesterday he was taking pictures of a taxpayer-bought banner advertising a candidate forum, but it also included the name of the incumbent on them and not the other candidates. So...
