Regulars will notice entries today were posted a lot later than usual. I had to rush the computer into the shop this morning and my whole day is shot.
Anyway, this is all I'll have time for today--I barely got my Gun Rights Examiner column written. Sorry to those of you who sent me in tips--I'm sure I'll get to some of them tomorrow.

U.S. 'Gun Control' Not the Answer to Mexican Crime
We've been off-and-on discussing violent Mexican drug-related crime and the opportunistic plotters in this country trying to exploit it by enacting further citizen disarmament edicts. My last column on this topic includes links to the various decepetions they've been trying.
Information I have received from reliable sources says the Zeta criminal organization is stepping up its ruthlessness on our side of the border. Mules who if detected would previously abandon contraband they were smuggling, must now, under threat of death for failure, protect the drug shipments they are carrying rather than abandon them. To do this, they have been ordered to carry weapons.
And when the Zetas give an order, they expect to be obeyed. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column shows the absurdity of thinking otherwise. Like keeping you and me from buying semi-autos will have any effect on ruthless, decapitating monsters who can buy the "authorities" on both sides of the border. This whole business of an "assault weapons" ban being needed to fight the cartels is such an utter fraud, what must it say about the motives of anyone proposing it?
Also see an alert from Oregon about three bills, and get the latest from my fellow GREs.
Please pass the link along to interested friends.
