Shameless Plug: May I Be Frank?

Unauthorized carrying of firearms aboard commercial airliners is a federal felony. Would you or I be “asked”? And still unresolved is the issue of Melton traveling with two armed bodyguards, and why TSA could produce no evidence of their being trained and certified to carry weapons on planes.

"May I Be Frank?" is my Rights Watch column for the April 2007 issue of GUNS Magazine, on sale now at earnest newsstands throughout the Republic.

BONUS: See page 98 to find out how you can win a S&W Model 29 .44 Magnum with a 61/2" barrel, target trigger and hammer, full nickel plate, Cocobolo checkered wood grips, and mahogany presentation case with cleaning rod and sight adjustment screwdriver ($1,195 value).

  2. Wishing to pay it backward for all of those who've fought long and hard to preserve our liberties, I've searched high, low and tweener-wise looking for Guns here, but without any newstand luck. Time to subscribe I suppose.

  3. I realize this story isn't an "only ones" story. But it points to similiar conclusions.

    "... Headd changed lanes and fired one round from a 9 mm handgun, police said. The driver followed her and flagged down a deputy, who stopped her and found the weapon.

    "She said she was tired of people tailgating her," Macomb County Sheriff Mark Hackel said.

    Headd, who had a permit to carry a concealed weapon, was charged with assault with a deadly weapon, discharge of a firearm from a vehicle and use of a firearm during a felony...."

    Just because a person has received the privilege to carry in public, whether with a badge or with a license, doesn't make them any less prone to screw up as they were before receiving the privilege. The education process required does not give someone abilities beyond what their brains are capable, nor higher morals than those of us who refuse to accept a right as a privilege.

  4. I just picked up a subscription for Guns Mag. and my first copy arrived today with your excellent piece on Mayor Frank Melton and his band of tyrants. It says a lot about Jackson, Miss. voters that they would elect such a low brow buffon to such a high office.

  5. Bearing arms is a right, not a privilege. Felons surrender that right, among others (like it or not thats how it goes and another tale entirely), and to single out one of millions who law abide proves what, exactly?
