  • Are you going to argue that police unions are a net good? They are the reason we have impenetrable qualifed immunity for even ridiculously egregious misconduct and any time a cop is shown to actually go over the absurdly strict line of what they can be held legally accountable for, the unions protect them at all costs. The reason criminal cops can just get hired at any other PD and their past is covered up/ignored is the police unions. I’m not saying they don’t do good things, but the bad they do is way too much to overlook.

    With the legal authority police have, they need to be held to higher standards than the average person, instead the unions voraciously fight to ensure there are virtually zero standards for police conduct.







  • Much of the country it is a nightmare finding a place to shoot. I’m moving to Charleston SC at the end of the summer, I already reached out to the main range around there and they aren’t even accepting new people to the wait list. They’re hoping to maybe open the wait list back up in April or so.

    When I lived in Northern Virginia someone finally built a very nice 100 yd indoor range and it was only a 45 minute drive from my apartment. Then the owner retired after 5-10 years and the town where it was located flat out told him “we will never approve the permits for you to ever sell it to another person. Sell it to us so we can make it a private police training facility or you will never see a penny.”

    I’ve lived in many states, and it was almost always at least an hour to the nearest range. Right now I shoot on a private farm 10 minutes away and it’s beautiful.
