Possibility, Probability, or Historical data?
The possibility exists that you will be the first target. When you look at probabilities and historical data, the chances are effectively zero. There is a person on another forum that is offering a substantial reward to document a case where an...
First - I am the originator of the post on OCDO. I said somewhat active, because I do have a life.
Second - the hate started on this thread, as evidenced by the title of the thread. Check my post and point out where I hated on anyone.
Third - okshoters does tend to be against open carry in...
This needs to be spread far and wide, especually amongst the "I'm going to rub your nose in my rights" open carry retards.
Communication is an interesting thing, people tend to see only the main points and lose the finer points. The focus of your statement, without any clarification or...
Sorry I'm a little late to this party. Been in the mountains of Colorado for a few weeks doing a reset on the system.
Alpha Training Academy in Pryor does a SDA class, classroom and range are at the same location. Not the closest thing to what you want, but it's the closest I know of. They...
Briang,
I agree with your comment that there are people that have no business with a firearm. They have a right to be armed and stupid. I just don't want to be near them.
Keep in mind that there are people on here that are looking for any excuse to jump on others. Keep on postin' (and carrying).
More averse to risk. Sit facing the door at restaurants, sit on the outside of the booth. Public restrooms, its the stall furthest from the door. Walking with my little girl, she holds my left hand and is on my left side. If I have to send a text or read an email, I stand with my back to...
Taking what you said about not being specifically targeted, and expounding on the theme some - when the BG starts his mayhem, you are a nameless, faceless blob in a crowd of nameless, faceless blobs. Blob A is a CC'er, blob B is an OC"er. When the BG makes known his intentions and both blobs...
Your very first sentance dis-proves itself. "If you are not specifically targeted" OC has a tactical advantage over CC because it is a faster draw, no need to work past a cover.
I can totally agree that to carry is more important than how.
While you may "feel" that the OC'er will be the...
If you had left out the one sentence, I could have agreed with most of what you said. First, there is no tactical advantage to CC over OC. Given the same person, the same mode of carry, the same training level, etc, an OC draw will always be faster than a CC draw. OC will give you a definite...
And the myth goes on. By your own admission, it is a rare person that would confront an OC'er. I have changed what you said a little, but I think the sentiment would remain accurate. In fact, it is such a rare occurrence that you would be hard pressed to find a single incident where it...
If a bad guy sees one OC in a restaurant, he leaves. To imply anything else is to ignore the criminal mindset. The BG doesn't stop to wonder how many more are out there, he doesn't do an internal threat assessment, he doesn't do a threat/benefit analysis, he just leaves, and hopes he makes it...
Funny that no matter how many times this comes up, and how many times that it is statistically shown to not be true, that it still keeps coming up. Not saying it won't or can't happen, just that statistically, it doesn't.
Had a great meeting with Don. Would do it again in a heartbeat. Good deal, no hassles, very up front about everything. Wish i was closer and had more time to just chat.
OK. I re-read his post, and the entire thread. I still stand by what I said. All was positive until he put OC'rs and loons together in the same sentence. And yes, I am a little sensitive when people that should be supporting the advancement of gun rights choose to spout the same rhetoric that...
