Eli Dicken. A name we should all know by now

Then by some of the logic ITT, we shouldn't have more school shootings than anyone else.

We sure shouldn't. Harden those targets. One way in, one way out with metal detectors and a bullet proof plexi glass box everyone has to pass through. Detector goes off and that person is locked in until an ARMED guard behind the glass approves of their entry. Arm teachers as well.

I have two firm dating rules: 1) NO Liberals. I don't trust them to make rational decisions. 2) NO Gator fans.....they are annoying and I can't stand the sight of the stupid Gator chomp.
Those should be "married rules". Date anyone you find attractive. I've dated gator fans, that was annoying. I've dated liberal chicks as well. Thats usually fun until they go full blown liberal on you and you're forced to ghost them.

#1 I totally agree with because I carry the same rule. But being 45 min from Gainesville I’d never get any lovin if I shot down a gator fan. 😂

I hear he doesn’t want to be in the limelight. I hope people just let him be, but I fear his wish will be denied by people who either want to cast him as saviour or as devil.
I’m glad he’s the one in the limelight rather than the bad guy. I haven’t seen his name and hope it’s never publicized…..unless we find out it’s a Biden, Pelosi

😂. I’ma firm believer that none of us really know until we’re in the moment. Let’s hope we never find out

Guy I worked with for over 20 years now almost never qualifies w/ his duty sidearm first time around. Back in ‘05 he got into an OIS after a chase. Suspect leveled off on him with a 30-30.

He put 4 rounds you could cover with a coffee saucer center mass, in under 2 seconds (by video). DRT.

So yeah, you just never know.

Special Forces? Gotta ask because that’s some high quality shooting

I just know you were in the military so I assumed. My apologies. I find those stories interesting because I’ve always looked up to you guys

We’re good, don’t apologize. Navy, yes. But I rode subs for 20 yrs. Navigation. My LE career started after that, in ‘00. I was on our SRT, but too old and slow now.

Doesn’t matter what you did, I appreciate the hell out of all of you. I recently learned my great grandfather died in the battle of the bulge. Couldn’t be more proud

Gentlemen.

I must say this kid has inspired me. I wasn’t exposed to many guns growing up. Single mom household. She’s not anti-gun, just hesitant. Anyway, I purchased a Glock several years back. Attended a gun safety class. Spent hours and hours at the range and eventually I carried daily.

Fell asleep the last few years though. Stopped training. Not carrying for the most part. What this kid did should be a wake up call to us all. It certainly has been for me.

I can't date Republicans because they are uneducated, bigoted hicks. Unless of course she's hot and then I will make an exception.

I’m 44, but ok.

Turned 45 couple months ago. Think NEO is about same age as us. Cool. Always interested in views of folks the same age as me, because i feel like they grew up in the exact same version of America that i did. Things have changed (deteriorated) so quickly in our lifetime that 5 years difference in either direction can mean a different set of circumstances a person dealt with growing up. Adoption of cellphones, internet, social media etc meant big changes in how people experienced their teen years etc. I had a pager in HS for example...bc cellphones were not accessible really yet. We stopped at payphones to return a page lol. A person 5 years younger than me never lived that way. Go VOLS

Good to see ya GW. Always enjoy your posts brother. Hope all is well down there in peach land.

The sad thing his firearm will likely be seized and never returned. Even if he had some type of gun owner/CWP insurance I doubt they will cover it. Wonder if anyone has a gofundme setup for him?
