Walgreens Employee Fired for Use of Concealed Weapon

Losing the Jews: Obama dumped by big Dem donor
rehmwa replied to dmcoco84's topic in Speakers Corner
agreed - perhaps at one time - Greece, then later, Britain, certainly the US, possibly the evolution of the eastern Euro states are coming to the fore. I don't think Isreal has ever been keystone to western thinking. Maybe someday for the middle east, but certainly not so far, and that's an uphill battle. ...

Walgreens Employee Fired for Use of Concealed Weapon
rehmwa replied to nbblood's topic in Speakers Corner
I didn't see that in the article. Where'dja get it? Although the last sentence is a non-sequitor as in the this case, having the pharacist armed was safer for their customers and any scenario can result in either safer or less safe depending on circumstances. I think no-gun policies are fine if the property owner wants it that way. No explanation/rationalization adds value since it's subjective anyway. Edit: however, the pharmacist didn't know of the policy apparently. So the chain has the right to fire him - though, that's a knee jerk response. They should retrain him on the policy, thank him for the results, and then only let him keep his job further if he agrees to follow policy from this point further. Or change the policy and make sure that's publicly announced. Although, it's pretty nice for burglars, now that Walgreens policy is likely a lot more publicly announced due to this incident. I'm sure they'll appreciate knowing that a 24 hour operation is gun free. NOT firing him, would have been better PR, and would have kept their policy away from crooks that'll use that info. ...

why just JR? IMO - seems we should ALL be upset with Walgreen's unless they had an employee policy to keep guns off their property edit: "Hoven reports that he is not aware of any official Walgreens' policy prohibiting employees from carrying concealed firearms at work. " so there you go He should keep his job. I don't see how making a big deal out it one way (medal, promotion, bonus) or the other (fire him) helps the cause of legal ownership more than just noting this was a good and practical example of responsible self defense and moving forward with life like this is normal and acceptable. ...

you want to have a stop work meeting.. Take in a new born baby, fook me, they SWARM on them AND they all start talking gibberish and in higher pitched voices than normal I like to send flowers to my wife at work.

Oh yeah?? well,,,,some obscure country somewhere that doesn't have guns has a statistically insignificant lower rate of violent crimes than the US. AND, they have social health care too - so even if someone gets shot, they can have the bullet removed for FREE. Because of that, they can even DEFINE being shot as a non-violent crime - bringing their rate down even lower......for the children so there ...

I don't think about the "UK" at all. On a personal level, though, I've met a ton of Brits and they don't stand out much vs people from the US or elsewhere. In short - I like most of them, most seem to be caring and want good things for their kids, and are nice to people that are nice to them. "People" are people. "Countries" are another thing. In the end, people are what matter, the rest is inconsequential. ...

Then put your money where your mouth is. Give us PROOF that your will states everything goes to the US Treasury - no strings attached, nothing to your kids. Or 90%. Or whatever you and DreamDancer decide is "fair". Serious non sequitur on your part. Stating that the inheritance isn't earned is unrelated to whether taxing it is legitimate. nonsense - the whole premise from you and DD is that, since it's not really 'earned', then it should go to the government to spend on bug research, the perverted arts, missiles, roads, and random social programs designed to garner votes. Your kids got paid a fair wage by you - they don't deserve your estate, so why wait for the tax code to change to "do the right thing". Give it to the treasury when you pass unless you hate the poor, children and sick people. ...

as you wish - I do that to instill the thought, frankly, when many 'think' they are touching, they are usually still separated by over 3 inches (just under shoulder width). I don't want them leaving the tunnel and flying touching, just more aware of how much the wide stance is giving them grief. In tunnel camps, this has been very effective in every single student I've trained to date (10 years now). the point is, this aids getting the junk low - which is critical. if you can achieve that via great flexibility, or whatever - more power to ya. ...

avatar - I'm Green, both red and green had agreements to give each other legs together signals because our turns were crap unless we had a narrow stance - it was a standing joke. White had a very wide stance and wouldn't correct it - she swirled out on any center point turn. Blue did correct his stance is now one of the most rock solid divers at our DZ. wide knees cups your pelvis and the air hits a dearch flat spot instead of flowing about cleanly - stand in your office and just do it and look at the curve or lack of curve between your hip bones try a leg turn with really wide legs and then try it narrow Take a student with super wide legs and give them an arch signal - then, get their legs closer and give an arch signal - see what works better to get their junk low we're talking about a student likely exageratingly wide that their butt lifts naturally - teaching you see it even more on females than males - more on oldtimers than newbies if you want to rehash it, let's take it to a new thread - hell, I'm just a stranger on the site.

Two questions regarding maintenance
rehmwa replied to shah269's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
people tend to favor turning to one side when they land to collapse the canopy others - twists be come loops, loops become knots, knots become tangles - I'd worry about this long before I'd worry about twists making one side shorter or not the heat from the slider shrinks the lines - nylon shrinks with permanent heat damage as for coating the lines.......I'd think dirt attraction is about the worst thing to try for line preservation........ ...
