    Brink's Home Security

    imported post Those commercials make me so depressed it's not even funny. I think the worst part about them is the false sense of security they attempt to provide people. These commercials particularly portray women as helpless victims who must rely on a phone for protection. It makes me so...

    Discharge of unchambered ammunition

    imported post This story is unbelievable. I myself have actually never been one to leave my ammunition like this. Not because of fear of this happening, but because I just don't want it to fly everywhere if I drop the box or something, which would force me to go find it in the piles of spent...

    imported post http://www.wral.com/news/local/story/2964112/ This is an interesting story. Check out this guy, I can't imagine thinking he's a police officer, but I guess some people are really that gullible. If he came up to me on a bicycle without a uniform on, I don't think I'd be handing...
