China train station knife attack illustrates helplessness of unarmed victims

Not unexpectedly, even in China, disarmament of those who refuse to comply is a pipe dream. And when terror strikes, the "law-abiding" are left to run, hide, scream, fall, bleed out and die until "authorized" armed responders show up on scene. [More]

Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes the gun control train has left the station, leaving piles of dead and injured in its tracks.

UPDATE to NRA Opposing Surgeon General Nominee Story

I just added this update to yesterday's GRE:

UPDATE -- per Emily Miller at The Washington Times:

A spokesman for the NRA told me that the five-million member organization will score the Senate vote, meaning that it counts toward a member’s rating in campaigns.

Why the letter and announcement did not say so, and why NRA's media office did not answer that question when asked and did not call back with an answer is unknown. When and if a reply is received or a clarifying statement is issued, it will be noted here.

Second Update:

UPDATE: NRA sent out a "Grassroots Alert" email this morning about their Murthy opposition, and again say nothing about scoring the vote, including in the complete alert posted on the ILA website.
