NRA call for Holder to be fired a waste of political capital
In fairness, you should read the case LaPierre makes. I did, and frankly, it does not bring me any closer to his position. In fact, reading skillfully crafted marketing claims like “When NRA first began our campaign to fire Eric Holder we were one of just a few voices in the wilderness” makes my jaw drop at the sheer, amazing chutzpah of it. I guess, yeah, this campaign is their baby, but somehow, LaPierre in camel hair rags eating locusts and honey, was not the first thought in my mind back when there really were voices in the wilderness, who knew they were on to something huge and dangerous, and who were doing everything in their power to...[More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary notes that the wilderness is a big place--maybe we just missed him?

This engagement is between Lieutenant Colonel James De Lancey’s Loyalists and the Connecticut Brigade commanded by William Hull. The patriots destroy numerous buildings and food stores while also capturing several Loyalists, along with some horses and cattle. First-hand accounts give conflicting figures as to the number of casualties incurred by each side. [More]

William Barton, Lieutenant, 1st NJ, "Proceeded to Phillips's farm(9miles)and halted one hour. Marched again for Tunkhannack, fording a creek, one and a half miles before we arrived there, which was at four P. M. This place, as usual, is situated on the river; the few former huts destroyed; land as usual, bottom. This place very remarkable for deer, bears, turkey, several of which were taken by the troops without firing a gun, there being positive orders to the contrary; otherwise might have killed many more during our halt."

Of Special Interest
William Newell, former ATF Special Agent in charge of the Phoenix Field Division has been queried about his close relationship with Kevin O’Reilly, Director of North American Affairs of the National Security Council, and why, as stated in an e-mail to him with the caveat “You didn’t get this from me”, he wanted his friend O’Reilly to keep his name secret as a source of disclosure about an ATF investigation that allowed guns to “walk” to Mexican cartel criminals. This is of special interest because the NSC conducts its meetings in the White House Situation Room. The NSC’s advisor is responsible for providing the president and other NSC members, including the secretary of defense and secretary of state, with regular updates pertaining to all aspects of national security. [More]A-yup.
And yeah, I'll take links from Forbes...
If ATF can’t tell us what a ‘firearm’ is, who can?
It’s more than just chasing after a rumor, which would be easy to dismiss or just flat-out ignore. A friend of mine has given me a real-world example, and per the concern I expressed yesterday, it involves a completely different firearm and a completely different caliber—meaning precedent has already been established—years ago—to mess with millions of gun owners based entirely on mercurial and mutable agency inconsistencies in application of rules.[More]Another Gun Rights Examiner column for today...make all the news that needs to be shared stop! Shoot, it's after 4:00 pm and I haven't even started on my radio show research for tomorrow yet...

What to Do if You're Attacked by a Punching Bag
I dunno...[Watch]
Seems to me at this point your defenses have already been breached and it becomes a matter of strength, skill, luck and will. It's been my experience that many fights do end up on the ground, and an attacker's not going to just lay there like a...uh...heavy bag, and what happens next could depend as much on what he does as what you do.
I've never been a fan of one-size-fits-all defense techniques--when the dynamics get fluid, plans often go out the window and what counts is ability to adapt with what you bring to the fight. And like I said, will.
One thing I do want to make clear though: I'm not saying dismiss the video--you may find yourself in a situation where you remember it and it works like a charm for you. It's always good to have options, and this is one.

No Excuses...
...but nonetheless relevant...[Read]
I see from comments that the source of this link is not universally acclaimed.
I am not in a position to argue about that, just to note that the information appears relevant--so rather than just dismiss it outright due to the messenger, we need to determine how much of it is true. This isn't an issue of making excuses for the mad dog murderer, I think my title to this post makes that clear, but I do believe our understanding the totality of facts is important--particularly for parents who send their kids to camps that espouse an ideology on either side of the spectrum--if for no other reason than to be aware that we now have a real world example of security vulnerabilities being exploited to advance extremist agendas.
I remember the camp I went to as a kid--we had rifle range practice with .22s. I checked out their website out of nostalgia and see it is now proudly gun-free.

Speaking of TSA...
Received via email:
The reply:
I think this would be more effective if they put "GUN" on the side in big red letters.
And I'm told:
UPDATE: From a different source:
TSA is trying to kill the armed pilots program. Pilots are very sensitive to how much stuff they want to lug around on trips. Instead of allowing them to keep the USP compact concealed in a bag of their choice, they will be requiring they be carried in a large metal box, 10 pounds without the gun. Some are already not re qualifying in anticipation of the new rules."Any way to source this?" asks I.
The reply:
My dad just called me apoplectic (the gun is the way for them to bypass the slave-training/security but now the inconvenience of the box.....). got done with his requal and they gave him "the box". I'll try to get him to email me a picture. They're very secretive about the whole program for unknown reasons so I doubt there will be a press release.The picture:
It's the silver one on the left.
And I'm told:
For more back story, when the program first started, TSA was going to make them use the smaller box on the right. Due to outcry, they let them carry concealed in a bag of their choice. Now the big silver kevlar "back pack" will be required.
UPDATE: From a different source:
Don't list me as a source (SSI), but it is not silver, and it is not a backpack. I don't have one yet (and will avoid it for as long as possible), but it is black, nylon or perhaps kevlar soft-side case designed to accommodate a lock. Guess they got tired of discharges from the previous idiotic system, so they replaced it with a new idiotic system.No idea why a discrepancy, but it appears the basic facts are borne out. Maybe they have different models for different pilots...?

Spread the word on this, OK? Nobody else is doing a daily exclusive gun rights broadcast in a major market during morning drive time, and if this works, it could not only create an opportunity to spread to other markets, but also open doors for efforts by others. We complain our voice is not heard in the media--here we've got a foot in the door at an NBC affiliate station to promote a full-blown no compromise message. Just a few short months ago I certainly would never have predicted I'd see that happen--or that I'd be a part of it.

This Day in History: July 22
The Battle of Minisink was a battle of the American Revolutionary War fought at Minisink Ford, New York, on July 22, 1779. It was the only major skirmish of the Revolutionary War fought in the northern Delaware Valley. The battle was a decisive British victory, as the colonial militia was hastily assembled, ill-equipped, and inexperienced. [More]

Canton OH 'Only Ones' put the lie to public pledge--not to mention their oaths
And this pinhead's partner is just as guilty, because he didn't stop the frothing bully in his tracks. Good Lord, Canton releases these impulse control-challenged anger management class rejects on the public--armed? Is this badged punk going through 'roid rage or something, or is this the natural state the Canton PD keep their attack dogs primed in? [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary says sit back and watch a nice, relaxing video. NOW, YOU IDIOT, OR I'LL EMPTY MY GLOCK INTO YOU AND I WON'T LOSE ANY SLEEP!

Jersey City gun ‘buyback’ illustrates character of characters behind it
I’ve run into this Comey character before—he’s the one who said pump action shotguns were “assault weapons,” so I guess it’s no surprise that now he’s telling us that semiauto MAC-10 variants are “street sweepers.” And I also note he’s getting press for this "buyback" with Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah T. Healey, another of Bloomberg’s criminal Mayors Against Guns who obstructed justice, resisted arrest, was nude and drinking on his porch, engaged in disorderly conduct...[More]This morning's Gun Rights Examiner commentary notes a thoroughly unsurprising reliance on ignorance and lies from a pair of tax-feeding serial scoundrels.

We're the Only Ones Deathly Hallows Enough
Connecticut Cop Shot During Porn Bust Outside Harry Potter Showing [More]
More detail here:
Two police officers who arrived at the scene of an arrest in the parking lot of the AMC Loews Theatre Saturday morning were wounded after fellow Plainville officers shot at their police car, a state police investigation found.
The suspect, Erik Gothberg, 45, of Southington, had left the theater and was approaching his car when police tried to arrest him, the police report states. Gothberg reached for his waistband, and Sgt. Timothy Mullaney and Cpl. Jon Eno opened fire, the report states.
Yeah, they couldn't possibly have taken him in less public-endangering circumstances or had any indication he was violent--and lo and behold, he didn't have a weapon. Yeah, he "went for his waistband." Maybe he was scratching. Or maybe trigger-happy Frick and Frack--a corporal and a sergeant, so it's not like we're dealing with rookies here--are shoot-first idiots who will do anything to make sure it's they who go home at the end of their shift--even if their "brother" officers don't.

A Mugged Liberal
The incident ended when Boswell's 22-year-old grandson grabbed a gun from another room and pointed it at the intruder -- sending him running into the woods...[More]I don't have the time or inclination to delve deeper, but will simply note that a quick check shows GOA gives him a D- and NRA gave him an A in 2003, evidently after he'd voted against decreasing waiting periods a few years earlier.
