  1. That's bordering on a man-purse. How do you carry that, Indiana Jones style? :)

    I rocked one of these for about 6 years before I relented and went back to a leather bi-fold, carried in front pocket. The only reason I gave it up is because I beat the hell out of it and it got a little bent up, but still very functional. Even with a little cash in the clip, it was still one of the slimmest wallets I've had.

    When I say I beat the hell out of it, I mean this thing took the brunt of my lowside in Newark when I landed on it as I was sliding. Definitely saved my thigh from some rash, the only thing that happened to the wallet was the money clip popped off (which takes SIGNIFICANT amounts of force to do). Popped it back on, no problems.

    Lol. Nope, back pocket. I keep my key tags for Kroger, etc in the pocket cuz I don't like them on my key ring. I keep it pretty clean, just what I need.

  2. I've been using this since 2003 and has held up great. Been through Iraq, countless field rotations, rain, mud, whatever else I have been able to throw at it. No wear on it at all. I love this wallet.

  3. We always tell our kids to use words the first time on an attempt to stop it. If that doesn't work, tell someone in charge. If that doesn't work, beat some ass (didn't use those words). We have told alla of our kids that if it gets to the 3rd stage, we will take care of the school system. Their responsibility is to keep my child safe and when they fail to do so, the resulting circumstances are on them. Our kids have our 100% support as long as they follow the guidelines/rules we have set.

    This is what I'm teaching my daughter.

  4. Let's just get it out in the open. Clearly' date=' the officer is not smart enough to out-wit a nine year old child. He had no other choice than to use electricity to compel the youngster to do his bidding.[/quote']

    I didn't say that. Redkow asked if your first resort is to use physical force? It wasn't the officer's per the article so what's the point to asking that? I never said tazing the kid was a good or bad decision.

  5. For those with kids, is physical force your first means of gaining compliance, or your last?

    I trust my parents a hell of a lot more than the police, and yet it seems like many of you are claiming you trust the police to strike first rather than exhausting other options. It all sounds good in theory when it's not you the cops are after, but it might be some day. Not everyone the police encounter, interrogate, or arrest is guilty. How many here have been arrested and still think the cops should be looser with the taser (or fists, night sticks, batons, pepper spray, etc.?

    Didn't the article say he told the kid to comply then told him multiple times he'd use the tazer? It wasn't his first resort.
