Yes, I can imagine what with all the excitement of such a high operational tempo you guys have on Fed property, punching holes in paper must seem like a real thrill.

No civil rights violated this week. Almost, but not quite.

Range day tomorrow is not related to the job.  :blurgh:

Got my CZ-82 so I again have a concealed carry-worthy firearm.  Might finally go ahead and get my CCW license, not that I anticipate carrying very often.

Oh, I think you do.

Nah.  Maybe if things get out of hand downtown it would be a nice option.  But a good part of the time I'm out & about I've got my kids with me, and those are by definition not high risk situations.

I'm working from home tomorrow, but I anticipate starting an early workday, followed by a couple hours of range time before I have to pick up the kids from pre-school :)

He's just upset from the GZ verdict. All white people are bad right now.

Things get out of hand downtown?  Downtown where? Damascus, Syria?

You have no good or compelling reason to carry a concealed weapon. 
And you have no professional responsibilities that require you to do so even though you are employed by the Cincinnati Bengals, in which case you're outgunned anyway. LULZ

But it's so cool to carry one.  :wub:

Nice, what do you do for an encore. Kick a kitten?  :rolleyes:

It makes him taller as well.  Or at least it feels that way.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Worse.  Downtown Cincy.  Don't forget 2001.

Responsibility?  No.  Qualification?  Most definitely.

Having a burning desire to find yourself in a situation where you get a chance to use your nifty new toy on A Bad Guy(tm) isn't really qualification.

How do you figure that?  Do you have a CCW, btw?
