Only those caught up in the cult fall for it.

Absolutely. California has been robbing its taxpayers for decades and then touting 'rebates' and 'refunds' that are small percentages of what was robbed in the first place....and the 'rebates' and 'refunds' never happen. What's really cool is the 90 billion dollar excess CA had this year got squandered on dreams, and since nobody is buying anything or driving anywhere due to our 40%+ inflation, CA is looking at a 50 billion deficit in 6 months. I'm totally happy about it. Our gas is still over $5 per gallon for diluted alcohol regular.

Yes, But Ca weather is nice.. lol

I have shot 498 in indoor Glock matches, in competition. Never quite made the''500" club but... I suspect you have no idea what those are: search a bit and see if I might qualify.

Good shooting!

I once shot a 198 at a sanctioned ISSF event. 25 meter one hand rapid fire. Not only set the record for the evening, but set the record for the season. I still own that pistol (Benelli).

I do suspect you may indeed be dyslexic, as you otherwise appear to

He'd already destroyed property because she told him to leave. If this qualifies as trespassing at night in Texas then shooting him could be ruled justifiable. Maybe she's being charged with having poor marksmanship?

I'm thinking that there's a lot more to the story.

Wrong. Texas is a constitutional carry state so we don't need a CCW "permit" to carry a firearm. We believe in the Constitution, unlike Commiefornia.

Contrary to what most Californians believe, BB guns are not firearms.

For Glock I use a box stock ex police gen2 19. Damned gun is amazing: I have more than 10,000 rounds through it and the only parts I have had to replace are recoil springs and the OE set of Trijicons went dead awhile back.
For Bullseye I prefer my ugly but trusty model 41. Benelli makes pretty fine weapons as well.

Damn you are definitely the Troll.
Snide digging remarks about Texas, how superior Ca is.
The bigger issue I've witnessed time and again is a Dunning-Kruger effect on perceived competence. Specifically in men who recreationally shoot a few times a year or have grown up hunting. Neither indicates any level of competence beyond the absolute basics of knowing where to not point it and generally not putting rounds down range unintentionally.
They also tend to be the ones who're quick to give everyone a lesson on how to shoot, frequently ending in injuries.
Firearms are potent tools that can create real damage. But so can vehicles. Yet we spend so very little time developing either skill beyond the basics. My hypothesis has all along been that it would be an easily reversible course (neither function requires extraordinary intelligence or time to achieve a decent level of competence) but that there's more money made by prolonging the problem, of which people like you are. A problem.
How many people do you know can shoot under duress/stress, and not at some paper target in a controlled environment?
I know I cant, or can I?
I know a few on this board definitely can and have been trained and executed their training in actual firefights.
If we could just get past the idea that a gun is the problem, and realize its society making shitbags that kill, we will be a whole lot safer. More people would own and train, like we used to.

He's an excellent candidate for trans, IMO. At least to be consistent with the ones I've seen in CA, where both of us live.

Here, for a man to transition into a woman, his preferred height is 6'2"+, he should have wrists like 2x4's, a strong chin, and a heavy brow. A prominent Adams-apple is a plus as well.

Our STS has pretty much ALL of these qualifications.
