Gotta love living here. I have always made it clear to everyone around me that I believe in shooting first and calling the cops seconds. Maybe that is why our stuff don't get messed with!
I totally agree with you. it is just those damn lawyers that figure out ways to twist the law into their clients favor.

I took a concealed carry class in VA severasl years ago. The instructor told us that if you shoot someone in your house or anywhere else that standard procecure is that you WILL be arrested and charged with most likely attempted murder or murder. His advice was call 911 after the incedent, wait for the police and tell them that you were in fear for your life and all you were trying to do was stop him and say nothing more. Get a lawyer.

In Texas, a CHL is more powerful than a police officer. We don't have to ask questions first and we don't have to attempt an arrest, we just pull the trigger. We have laws that allow us to kill someone we think is going to or has the potential to commit a crime again. So, if I see a mugger beat up an old lady and I shoot him dead, supposedly that is justified. We can also shoot someone who is stealing or defacing our property. Also, any time a CHL feels his life is in danger, he is justified.

Speaking of Justified, it's a good show, check it out.

That is about the same as it is hear eaton. Some states allow way more lattitude in there gun laws. Here we can also use our weapon to protect others as well as ourself.

That's the way it should be in every state. There are already plenty of laws to deal with criminals and weapons of any kind, we don't need gun-specific ones, too.

Anyway, does anyone have wiring diagrams for a kill switch? I want to put one in before my long trip for obvious reasons.

the larger terminal on top of the ip (one fits a standard connector the other is wider) the wider terminal is wired inline with a switch you can put the switch whereever but buy a good switch you dont want this one failing on you.
so run a wire from that connector to the switch to a fuse then to the battery flip switch to start and stop truck.
to make sure you have the right connector pull into youre home parking spot after a driver and pop the hood. pull a wire off the ip if it stops the motor thats the wire you want to put a switch on you can extend stock wiring into the cab even if you want but just add a switch somewhere

The kid was probably too embarrassed to report it. I'm sure in KY if you go to the police station and tell them that a guy beat your *** for trying to steal his truck, they would arrest YOU.
