Dec. 7, 1941: A Day to Remember

It was my father's 21st birthday.

Quite a present the young man received, eh?

He joined the Marines and slogged it out on Guam. His older brother did the same at Guadalcanal.

Happy birthday, Dad. Thank you for your love and your wisdom, and for the example you always set of what it means to be a man. You never once failed to meet your own standards.

I've never needed any hero except one, and you've always been it.

New York Post's All-Out Assault on the Second Amendment

I've been asked by a WarOnGuns regular to call attention to the continued attacks on RKBA from The New York Post. Here are some examples of the vicious propaganda that has appeared in this despicable rag over just the last week (you'll need to use BugMeNot to bypass site registration--but first check if userid: bodge@dodgeit.com and password: password still work):

BLOODY LEGACY
KILLED BY OUR MANIA OVER GUNS
NO HELP FROM ALBANY
LET'S GET RID OF GUNS THAT STOLE MY SON AWAY
COP-SLAY GUN'S TRAGIC HISTORY STARTS IN FLA.
GET THESE GUNS OFF THE STREET, SLAIN KID'S MA WEEPS
'I WISH EVERY MEMBER OF CONGRESS HAD LOOKED INTO OFFICER STEWART'S WIFE'S EYES IN HOSPITAL'
GUN THAT SILENCED A GENIUS
HOW MANY MORE MUST DIE?

I have no actions to recommend. Just be aware of the level of fanatical commitment the anti-freedom blood dancers are willing to bring to bear to totally gut the Second Amendment--not content to disarm their own pathetic constituents, their goal is to spread their evil influence to disarm us all.

Ultimately, I suspect it will boil down to some of us saying "no" and meaning it. Because they just won't let us live in peace.

If you buy this birdcage liner, you're giving aid and comfort to your enemy-- people who would literally rather see you and your family dead than armed.

We're the Only Shooters...I Mean Shoppers Professional Enough...

A retired Kansas City area police officer shot himself in the knee Tuesday morning at Oak Park Mall in Overland Park when his .38 caliber handgun accidentally discharged, police said today...

“This is a very unusual,” said Weaver, who said he has not seen an accidental shooting like this in his 37 years with the Overland Park Police Department.

He's evidently not a WarOnGuns regular.

We're the Only ...Holy Krishna!

Major Randeep Singh Nakai (35) was critically injured when his private revolver went off "accidentally" at his residence in Sector 12 late last night...The doctors at the PGI said the bullet went through his temple...It, however, remains a mystery as to how the gun went off. While Major Nakai’s family is tightlipped on the issue, one of his friend’s said he was cleaning the revolver at that time.

Hey, maybe we're finally ready to start outsourcing our police work to India...?

We're the Only...Umm...Move Along, People, Nothing to See Here...

Cop’s gun goes off at Manila airport; 4 injured

More Proof That Total Gun Bans Work

Four inmates at Glades Correctional Institution on Tuesday were charged with smuggling a loaded pistol and other contraband into a state prison.

Uh...never mind.
