If there’s a hip-hop heaven, you know they’ve got a hell of a band.

“I also bought a car off the list. Six years later, it is still going well.”

I bought my 57 Bel Air off Craigslist for $3,500 five years ago. It is worth about $10 k now, after $5000 in improvements. Vroooom Vroooom!

Well, the Democrat party did urge people to talk about gun control over the Thanksgiving table.

This woman listened, two lives were saved, and an evil man was put away.

Three cheers for the Democrats!

“With that being said, are you interested in a 3 piece, 9’ bamboo fly rod with an extra tip?”

Can you do a payment plan? :)

As more and more women arm themselves and become proficient with concealed weapons. Actions like this will become a common news item.

Go to the link below to see how a young woman can handle concealed weapons.

Pushing up collard greens would be a good bet for the newly worm food.

It actually goes beyond brains or lack thereof. When I did the cap pistol exercise with a friend, we figured out that all told, the cc holder has about 3 seconds total of non-contiguous advantage over a robber who is brandishing.

That is a ridiculous advantage in a gunfight.

The robber doesn’t want to shoot you, he wants to rob you and leave. He expects you to dig around in your pockets. He doesn’t know you are armed. It takes time for it to register with him that your gun is not a wallet or something, and that is only if he is facing you when you draw down on him.

And one of those things cops don’t mention very often is that about half the guns used by criminals are non-functional. Though you can’t count on that, it is still nice to know.

Finally, overlaid over all of that is that the robber has a brain the size of an oyster.

And yet, you here nothing about this on the national news while they are mooing incessantly about the shooting in Colorado Springs.

All she has to do is wait for the right moment, draw on him and fire, or not, at *any* time, her choice.

Here in California there are a few more steps to consider.
From the trunk of the car get the gun out of the locked gun box or container. Gun and ammo cannot be in the same location in the auto while transporting.
unlock the container and remove gun
Get into the car and retrieve the magazine and ammo
load magazine with ammo
put magazine in gun
ready the gun for firing by cocking hammer or pulling the slide
Make sure safety is off
Pull trigger if you're still alive by this time.

The perp obviously thought old Esmerelda was going into her purse to get the money he demanded. He never dreamed the old girl was packing. And her going into her purse, supposedly to retrieve the loot, was a perfect cover for her to come out with gun blazing. Dontcha love happy endings?😊

I hope this is the “former” Frank Frazier.

They need to find the other guy to see if the car is still for sale.

If you’re selling something it’s not likely you’re loaded with cash. If you’re going to buy a car they figure it IS likely you have cash. Those are who get robbed.
