Hello,
I am tickled that my login name is my actual name.
Anyway, I loved the name "NorthWest Citizens Defense League" so I of course signed up. I have been active in learning self-defense since Hurricane Katrina. Everything I know about this topic I have taught myself or have received training from Insights in Issaquah. I believe Washington is a great state for people who carry firearms. Nevertheless, there are a few Washington laws that I absolutely despise, thus I get involved whenever I can.
I don't OC much but I carry all the time. I do OC on occasion especially if I am headed to SVRC.
Speaking of Issaquah, may I suggest the February open carry get together be at Stan's BBQ by the Issaquah PD. Not that I have ever had any trouble with Issaquah PD, indeed I have used their range for training (one of the best indoor ranges I have been in). However if you have not had BBQ at Stan's you're just missing out. It's pulled-pork style and reminds me of my days in North Carolina.
Hope everyone had a happy New Year!
