    Good Situational Awareness

    So I had a strange encounter yesterday. My wife and I were leaving our apartment to walk to a local restaurant to meet a friend. As we left the apartment, I noticed a man dart out from behind a vehicle about 45 ft to my 2:00 position. He says, "Hey man!" and starts approaching us. I didn't feel...

    Out of State Inheritance

    How does an inheritance from out of state work? It would be from LA to VA. I do not think there is going to be a will. The transfer would include both long guns and handguns. Thanks, Eddy

    Can Someone Please Explain Why Obamacare is Bad?

    I don't claim to know anything, but it is my understanding that certain portions of this reform are good. For example, there is a prohibition next year on denying coverage based on pre existing conditions. That is the very reason I can't get affordable insurance right now. I'd like someone to...

    Writing a Paper

    So I am writing a paper for my English Composition class, and I chose a rather risky topic, considering how liberal (and almost openly anti) my professor is. I was told to write a definitional argument essay, and I chose to write about how I believe the term 'assault weapon' is a joke, and how...
