It should not go unnoticed that an “ordinary citizen” stands no chance of getting a concealed carry permit in the Big Apple, and that the “Only Ones” sanctioned to have guns in this case hid like cowards to protect themselves, not the disarmed-by-law people paying them under the foolish fiction that the job of the police is to serve and protect. [More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner commentary notes the false promise slogan doesn't specify who gets served and protected...

Ruling on subway stabbing victim highlights ‘gun control’ Catch-22
Judge denies Reese family dismissal and access to seized assets for defense
Judge Brack’s opinion made no mention that relatives and supporters are under no legal burden to continue with financial assistance, nor did he address the likelihood that enough funds can be raised on a sustainable basis to pay for crushing and mounting legal expenses.[More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes orders only a robed tyrant accustomed to ignoring the precepts in the Preamble and all norms of human decency would try to justify. Just incredible. He actually mandated a Blanche DuBois defense. Meaning the Reeses are depending on the kindness of strangers. Meaning they need your help, financially and in spreading the word.

We're the Only Ones Absent Enough
The defendants in Rob MacIver’s red-light ticket case are members of the police department and his town’s administration, but neither of them showed up to the hearing on Friday...The defendants were reportedly found in a coffee shop near the courthouse on Friday during the hearing, so it is unclear why they weren’t able to make the scheduled proceedings. [More]No contempt of court charges? Could you see one of us pulling that and having the judge basically say he'll just postpone the hearing and hope the defendants show up next time, instead of sending someone out with a bench warrant to arrest us and drag us before the bench?

It turns out the customer...was an off-duty security guard. He was grabbing a bite with an off-duty Atlanta police officer at the time. [More]So how come it was the "civilian" who responded?

Beth Stebner, Authorized Journalist
Landry has been charged with second-degree murder despite citing the state's Castle statutes, which are similar to Florida's Stand Your Ground laws and were used as defense by George Zimmerman in his trial for the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. [More]No they weren't. Why did you write that they were?
And then there's this:
Despite invoking the law, Landry was charged with second-degree murder...The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports that Coulter remains in critical condition.How exactly would that work?

Last Night's Armed American Radio Program
Tonight I traveled to an off-site location (for security reasons) to interview George Zimmerman’s brother Robert and his attorney, Jeff Dowdy. We took to the mobile Crossbreed Holster studios to bring you the Zimmerman perspective…something the mainstream media doesn’t want you to hear. Hour 3 I welcomed David Codrea, author Mike Detty, NH State Representative John Hikel and Crossbreed Holster’s Trent Cooper for one heck of a roundtable. I can say that this was one of the most important AAR broadcasts ever. Enjoy.
Please make sure others know about this.
A Lot of Malarkey

With Support Like This, Who Needs Opposition?
“I just don’t think alcohol and guns go together,” said Glenn Keefer, managing partner of the restaurant and a supporter of the Second Amendment. [More]Uh...Glenn? I've got somebody here who'd like a word with you...

But the Zimmerman case had nothing to do with "Stand Your Ground," you say?
Shhhh. We know that. But shut up. You're going to spoil a good meme.
Patrick R. Linsey certainly has packed every innuendo he could into this little exercise in conflation, right down to making sure he got a money quote about racial bias and another raising the possibility of not allowing neighborhood watch volunteers to carry firearms. He even managed to introduce "White Hispanic" into the mix and gin up some sympathy for not prosecuting "teens" for crimes "to prevent disproportionate affect or prosecution."
