Shit, in this photo, the barrel of the sidearm is actually pointing at the person who took the picture. If Abbott thinks that shooting in this circumstance was justifiable self defense/stand your ground applies, then this would be an open and shut case for a pardon. Right Governor?

I think the rule is if they are black you can shoot on sight, but if they are white you have to be a cop to be able to murder them.
April 11, 20232 yr No one has asked the important question: how do fuel city's tacos compare to Laredo taco co?
April 11, 20232 yr That place is called "Fuel City Tacos"? Seriously? Was "Shit Town Tostadas" already taken?
April 11, 20232 yr This seems relevant. Quote One warm afternoon in May, Dwight Jackson was getting dressed for a visit to his favorite cigar lounge. He slipped his holstered SIG Sauer P320 pistol onto his belt, put on a button-down shirt and leaned across his bed for his wallet. Suddenly, he said, the gun fired, sending a bullet tearing through his right buttock and into his left ankle. “I heard ‘bang!’” said Jackson, 47, a locomotive engineer who lives in Locust Grove, Ga. “I looked down and saw blood.” His wife heard the shot from down the hall and screamed. She called an ambulance while Jackson hobbled toward the front door, painting a trail of blood over the hardwood floors. At no point, Jackson later told police, had he touched the gun’s trigger. The P320 is one of the nation’s most popular handguns. A variant of the weapon is the standard-issue sidearm for every branch of the U.S. military. Since the gun’s introduction to the commercial market in 2014, manufacturer SIG Sauer has sold the P320 to hundreds of thousands of civilians, and it has been used by officers at more than a thousand law enforcement agencies across the nation, court records show. It has also gruesomely injured scores of people who say the gun has a potentially deadly defect. More than 100 people allege that their P320 pistols discharged when they did not pull the trigger, an eight-month investigation by The Washington Post and The Trace has found. At least 80 people were wounded in the shootings, which date to 2016. At one point is your holstered weapon pointed directly at me a threat to my life? Any cowboys or indians care to chime in?
April 11, 20232 yr Sorry, but making sure a handgun doesn't fire itself is a violation of the 2nd amendment

April 11, 20232 yr I mean, I love a taco dive more than the next guy. My mom ran a mid-grade mexican restaurant in West Chicago for a few years. But if it's inside a gas station and you need to come armed with your wife in her "fancy" sweatshirt to enjoy your "easter brunch", maybe start rethinking your life choices. Not judging, but where the fuck do some of you live that you feel the need to drag up and down violent protests looking for trouble and arm yourselves to the teeth to prevent some kinda imminent gas station taco/feral hog showdown?

If he was a black guy with a cell phone in his hand, he would be an "imminent threat, it looked like a gun, so I HAD to shoot him!" per trained law enforcement. But in this case, he's a white guy, demonstrating his patriotism and celebrating his inviolable 2ndm amendment rights, which SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!!!! So, you can't take any action against him unless and until he 1) draws the weapon, 2) clearly and audibly clicks off the safety, 3) points the gun directly at you, and 4) starts shooting you. Only then is a white guy with a gun deemed a threat. I could have sworn you got the memo from law enforcement. (And yes, to take it back to this thread topic, I still think that a case could have been made and succeeded with the jury that the victim carrying his weapon at a low ready as he aggressively approached the vehicle constituted enough of an imminent threat that the shooter was justified in taking defensive action.....but we all know THAT is not the precedent that Abbott wants to set here, because if the rule is "you can shoot a white guy carrying a rifle at a low-ready and doing/saying anything REMOTELY menacing," that's not gonna work out well for his base). 4 minutes ago, Handcruser said: When his hand goes on his weapon and he unholsters it is when your spidey senses go haywire.

I was always taught in my NRA gun safety classes when growing up to treat every gun like it was loaded and ready to fire. I was also taught to never point a gun, loaded or unloaded, at another human being. Is that no longer the current school of thought in gun safety?

April 12, 20232 yr Popular Post If you absolutely have to be a douchebag and open carry, it would be nice if you carried in such a way that when you inevitably have your accidental discharge, it hits you and not someone innocently standing behind you
April 12, 20232 yr Yeah. It’s one thing there’s no training or licensing requirement for open carry. But we couldn’t even be bothered to have a handful of sensible rules on how you actually open carry the weapon? You can just walk into a Fucking library with two assault rifles Pointed straight ahead or to your sides and that’s just what the founding fathers intended? I think of that asshat’s wife when he told her where they were going for brunch. And he said “hang in sweetie, I forgot something!” And she quietly thought “oh thank god, he’s gonna google some place nicer than gas station tacos to take me For Easter!” But nope, he comes back, clumsily adjusting is holster and handgun ‘causE she know how fuel city tacos be hoodin’

April 12, 20232 yr Post #1611 just upthtread.Yeah not sure what your asking. I’m not worried about a guy with a gun in a shoulder rig. I do think they’re stupid but the odds of it going off are astronomically low……so low I wouldn’t worry about it. But I’m around this stuff all the time. We do not stock shoulder rigs. We get some on trade from time to time though. There are different designs. Some better than others.

Why should we increase the odds of death or dismemberment just because trailer park boy wants to look cool buying brunch tacos at Fuel City?

April 12, 20232 yr The most heavily armed group of people, per capita, are Latin American drug cartels. On average, each member is carrying 1.5-2.0 weapons each. So they must be the safest, right? If more guns are the answer to more guns. Just using the local logic.
