    Immunity from Civil Liability Law

    Ok, I've searched and can't find anything. With all this Zimmerman stuff going on I'm in a debate about wrongful death civil suits that Zimmerman might face. I believe FL is a state that has a law making someone found not guilty in a shooting trial not liable to civil actions against him...

    One shot with a .22, that's pretty impressive shot placement......

    Attempted robbery and rape by a much larger man ends poorly for him. I'm shocked the woman was able to take her attacker down with one well placed shot from a .22 to the chest. Link to the story: http://www.wfie.com/story/15152384/sc-sheriff-dead-motel-robber-was-going-to-rape-clerk#

    So I'm driving back to work around noon today, when a cruiser slowly passes me by....

    I pulled out of a parking lot with no traffic. Suddenly a Montgomery County Sheriff's crusier came out of nowhere and is slowly passing me by like he's checking me out. There was glare on his window as I looked over towards him but it appeared that he was shaking a big "Thumbs Up" to me. And...

    Had a little run in at Rep. Boucher's Town Hall Meeting

    imported post A little long but a fun story for me at least, first time I've had something like this happen to me while OCing. I attended Rick Boucher's Townhall meeting in Dublin, VA (New River Community College) this morning on the health care issue. Got there about a half hour early, lucky...

    Planning on OCing at a Townhall Meeting in Dublin, VA

    imported post I'm intending on attending Rick Boucher's townhall meeting while OCing. I do not know of any law restricting me from doing so for a representative, the President yes, but a representative no. The townhall meeting will be at a community college, which I'm sure bans guns, although I...

    Traveling Through Illinois, possibly stopping to visit a relative

    imported post I assume I am relegated to transporting my weapon unloaded and in my gun safe. Is there anything I should know while in the great state of Lincoln while in the possession of a handgun? Am I even allowed to have it if I make a stop to visit my aunt while passing through?

    Going to Green Lake for a Family Reunion, What do I need to know?

    imported post My limited understanding is this: Must transport secured (gun safe all right?), unloaded (best to have mag stored separately?) and not within reach (does this matter if it's in a gun safe?). I may OC anywhere other than state parks, publicly owned/leased buildings (both state...

    Private Militia and Property Confiscation?

    Gun Rights Lost if Under Indictment?

    imported post I was indicted by the state of VA about seven months ago (VA 18.2-85). While in my new lawyer's office yesterday, old lawyer had a motorcycle accident, he and another lawyer stated they did not think I could possess or carry a weapon while under indictment. They could find no VA...

    Va. Tech families reach $11M settlement

    imported post The state is "compensating" the families. Isn't this nothing less than a tacit admission that they were liable for the safety of the students? And couldn't this action be taken as a precident for future legal action? And BTW, the families who are taking the deal are probably the...
