On Bud's Gun Shop Forums the question came up: What is the smallest caliber you trust to protect yourself?[Via Skip]
A 22 short should do it....think not?...read on........
The best answer: My personal favorite defense gun has always been a Beretta Jetfire in 22 short. Over all the years I've been hiking I never leave without it in my pocket. Of course we all know too the first rule when hiking in the wilderness is to use the "Buddy System." For those of you who may be unfamiliar with this it means you NEVER hike alone. You bring a friend or companion, even an in-law, that way if something happens there is someone to go get help. I remember one time hiking with my brother-in-law in northern Alberta. Out of nowhere came this huge brown bear and man was she mad. We must have been near one of her cubs. Anyway, if I had not had my little Jetfire I'd sure not be here today. Just one shot to my brother-in-law's knee cap and I was able to escape by just walking at a brisk pace.

Breaking: Issa demands access to second 'Fast and Furious' US Attorney
The refusal by Justice to allow Morrissey to testify also provides all the proof any fair-minded observer should need that the Department is engaged in top-down directed cover-up. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report brings some expected and significant news that most of the "official" media will continue to either ignore or twist.
Ding-Dong Bi...uh...Ditch
Former Bronx prosecutor Bernadette Greenwald, 37, of Rockville Centre, Long Island, told Nassau County police she felt she "had balls" after firing the gun for the first time after the game of "ding-dong ditch" caused her to snap, the New York Post reports. [More]I wonder if she also felt like she had balls when prosecuting New Yorkers on gun possession charges?

All We Need to Know
Around 27,000 men and women desert the Mexican military every year, and about 50 percent of the military's recruiting class will have left before the end of their first tour. In March 2011, the Mexican army admitted that it had "lost track of" 1,680 special forces personnel over the past decade...[More]Meaning our government is allowing "legal" weapons sales to their government knowing military firearms and ordnance will make their way to the cartels. No other explanation makes sense but that a core of evil, powerful bastards are counting on it for ambitious reasons of their own.
Ignorant or lying? An open letter to Rep. Hank Johnson
Say, here’s an idea: Why don’t you tell the Terry family how this is all just a manufactured political controversy? [More]This afternoon's Gun Rights Examiner column gives a domestic enemy all the respect he deserves.
What have been effects of politics and new media on 'Gunwalker'?
I believe what is ultimately called for is a truly independent counsel--not one reporting to DOJ, as current law provides, because that can create a fox/henhouse situation, and we've already seen many indications of the current OIG investigation being politically limited and compromised--which means Congress needs to re-up the office that expired in 1999. That will be the test of whether or not they have been effective, in my opinion.Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary answers a couple of questions.
In re new media, I believe Gunwalker is a milestone of sorts, because it truly is a major story that had to be brought to the networks and newspapers, and they still resist reporting on it at all, let alone not embedding their reporting with their own agenda. I believe it shows the monolith press is no longer the sole gatekeeper for information, as the internet has given us a way to bypass them. [More]

It would be appropriate to see everyone who is outraged by the government's actions, stonewalling and outright lies to get personally involved and to also spread the word about this. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report casts a net using social networks. And what it asks of all of us can be done in mere moments.
Spending Political Capital the "Pragmatic" Way

Thing is, there appears to be a broader network policy as well:
This time the ban appears to stem from FOX.And:
The MMA Corner has learned from sources close to the situation that the latest impact is that guns and ammunition sponsors, such as The Gun Store and Ammotogo.com, have been banned from events that take place on the Fox family of networks.Say, aren't they the folks with that "conservative" news network the regressive' left's useful idiots have been primed to publicly hate?

I'm sure it's a mental illness for some, but for others, it's pretty much just the same motivation that prompts a highwayman to demand your money or your life under force of arms.
I'm not sure whether Bobbie Paxton suffers from an affliction, ignorance, or some darker motive, but hysteria over "the NRA with its unlimited power" does make me question her capacity for rational thought. Maybe if she watched a few relaxing turtle dove hunting videos she'd calm down...
In the interim, if anybody's going to be holding a stake around here, put it to good use.

Constitutional Crisis?
Sen. Rand Paul ‘detained’ by TSA in Nashville, TSA denies [More]
It doesn't matter what they call it, in this case, he may really be an exempt "Only One" on the basis of Constitutionally-required separation of powers:
The Senators and Representatives shall ...be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
I'm not a lawyer, but it will be interesting to see if this is an issue. Reps have made such claims for much more far-fetched reasons...

[More]And of course, if Nutter and his promoters at The Inquirer have their way, they'll all be illegal--except the ones controlled by the violence monopoly. That way, guys like this will have even less of a chance!
Right Bill, Wrong Proponents?
"I won't vote for anything associated with the South Dakota Gun Owners," said Abdallah, of Sioux Falls.
Gosch, of Rapid City, said, "The merit of the bill is something I support, but I can't support this bill because one backer is the South Dakota Gun Owners."
The House Judiciary Committee voted the bill down 7-5.
Both Gibson and Abdallah say they have an A-plus rating from the National Rifle Association, which gives grades to lawmakers according to their support for the right to bear arms. [More]
But they'll ignore their oaths of office, vote against a bill that expands those rights and let it tank regardless of its merit because they don't like one group of constituents promoting it? And make sure they publicly disparage a smaller competitor group to their patrons in the process?
I wonder what kind of points they earned for that? It sounds more to me like someone didn't want the bill to pass for reasons of their own...

Open Letter to Roberta Wagner and Latasha Robinson of the FDA
Because of these intended uses, your walnut products are drugs within the meaning of section 201 (g)(1)(B) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 321(g)(B)]. Your walnut products are also new drugs under section 201(p) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 321(p)] because they are not generally recognized as safe and effective for the above referenced conditions. Therefore, under section 505(a) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 355(a)], they may not be legally marketed with the above claims in the United States without an approved new drug application. Additionally, your walnut products are offered for conditions that are not amenable to self-diagnosis and treatment by individuals who are not medical practitioners; therefore, adequate directions for use cannot be written so that a layperson can use these drugs safely for their intended purposes. Thus, your walnut products are also misbranded under section 502(f)(1) of the Act, in that the labeling for these drugs fails to bear adequate directions for use [21 U.S.C. § 352(f)(1)]. [More]
Dear Parasites,
I guess if stupid unelected bureaucrats can declare Chore Boy scrubber pads are firearms under the right set of conditions, you two "just following orders" Ilsa wannabes can classify walnuts as drugs and make threats backed by force of state arms. Way to go securing the blessings of Liberty there, gals--but why bring up the Constitution? It's not like it has any bearing on your activities.
This is public notice that I am in possession of illicit walnut drugs and am administering them without any license to my family and advising them that eating them is good and healthy for them. In other words, that is, in your words, I am "a layperson us[ing] these drugs," obviously, if you are to be believed, unsafely "for their intended purposes."
Something must be done!
Be advised I am defying you and will continue to do so until you send someone to stop me--before I do it again! Also be advised that I will not go willingly, so bring a lunch (and make sure you include plenty of delicious, healthy walnuts!).
Jeez, next thing you know, petty government tyrant wannabes will be telling us water doesn't hydrate or some such foolishness, like we're Europe or something.
Some growers in CA pronounce almonds "ammonds" because, to get them out of the tree you have to knock the "l" out of them--prompting a friend to ask if we should call walnuts "whaaanuts" ("a" as in "and").
Whaanuts. Sounds like you two

Castle Keep

And yo, Butler County prosecutor--if someone is in my home uninvited, job one becomes stopping the threat. If you and Colin want to call that "execution," fine. Just stay out of my home unless invited and you'll be fine.
The Larger Danger
We can only say that situations in which "seconds count" occur more in gun advocates' imaginations than in reality. We live in a community that is, by and large, safe and law-abiding, with a populace that is mostly courteous and restrained. The larger danger is from accidental shootings. [More]Here are the unsolved Winston-Salem homicides.
Neighborhood Scout rates it a "4" out of a possible "100." Your chance of becoming a victim in Winston-Salem is "1 in 109."

That being the norm among "Authorized Journalists" is "the larger danger."

If Perez is correct, that lack of state-issued photo ID is 20% more likely to disenfranchise minorities from their right to vote, why would we not also believe it would have a similar effect on their right to purchase a firearm, as is specified on ATF’s Form 4473 requiring a driver’s license or “valid government issued photo identification,” and similar forms as proof of eligibility?Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary objects to a government-imposed requirement that they themselves consider racist--when it suits their purposes.
The government can’t have it both ways. [More]
200
Emboldened by a new Republican majority in Richmond, some 200 people rallied on Capitol Square Monday to push gun-friendly legislation, hours before a crowd occupied the same space to commemorate victims of gun violence. [More]200? Hell, I found 1,250 firearms-related businesses alone in VA. Why the hell weren't there 200,000?
I remember we got about 200 gun owners to show up at a demonstration in LA--the weekend after 40,000 of them managed to drag themselves to the big area gun show back when it was still allowed at the LA County Fairgrounds. Most didn't lift a finger to stop its expulsion from happening, either.
Pathetic, the number of do-nothing welfare parasites in "our" ranks. Yeah, let someone else do it. Profiles in Apathy, that is, the gungrabbers' best friends, strike again.
On the plus side, it looks like the cud-chewers did a lot worse.And here's a wonderful illustration of how they operate:
“We think that the laws on the books in Virginia are reasonable,” [Lori Haas] said.Followed immediately by:
Sen. A. Donald McEachin, Henrico Democrat, said at the afternoon vigil that he planned to introduce legislation calling for universal background checks for gun purchases.Gee, they're so "reasonable," we must have more!
Not that the frickin' Republicans will do anything beyond the bare minimum needed to exploit gun owner desperation...
And they can get away with it because, as we observed, only 200 showed up.

Yes and No
Yes:
What is occurring is that some folks in DOJ & ATF, along with Democrats and the main stream media are using law enforcement terminology to confuse the public by not distinguishing the differences between the terminology gun walking used in Operation Fast & Furious and the terminology controlled gun delivery used in Operation Wide Receiver.No:
The nation’s federal gun-law enforcer, ATF, in conjunction with a task force composed of several other federal agencies, allowed nearly 2,000 weapons to be smuggled into Mexico via Fast and Furious. These “controlled deliveries” of deadly weapons were put into the clutches of criminal organizations so that ATF could later trace the trail of those guns to the kingpins of Mexico’s criminal organizations.Judges?

Lawmaker thief a perfect representative for gun-grabbing rights thieves
So naturally, this sick-in-the-head criminal (and a California Sheriff’s Association’s “Outstanding Legislator” award recipient) is against the right of peaceable people to keep and bear arms: She’s against concealed carry. She’s against open carry. She’s for expanded registration.Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary looks at a...well, "common thief" doesn't apply when one is one of the uncommon elites, does it? But that's what this sociopath is.
She doesn’t trust us! [More]
