Gun owners urged to defy Obamacare as Democrat voter sign-up dangers emerge
It will be interesting to see how many Americans decide to follow GOA’s suggestion, and not just gun rights advocates. [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes that just as it’s not about guns, it’s about control, the same thing could be said for “health care.” Includes exclusive link to copy of report the Soros-backed Demos group took down from its site when exposed. I suggest you see it in case/before they initiate action to force its removal.

‘Progressives’ firing up ‘racism’ charge to intimidate gun owners, conservatives
They’re counting on the new Scarlet Letter, “R” -- the old one, “A,” being almost a “progressive” badge of honor -- making people afraid to speak out, lest they be branded with it. [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner notes racism charges by the collectivists have a purpose. Let them get away with it and it will chill political opposition. Let them succeed in doing that and we’ll have more than name-calling to worry about.

Someone's Been Undermining MY Rights
Kurt notes some intruders presuming to occupy what is ours. Why does Castle Doctrine come to mind?
Speaking of Goldilocks (yeah, you have to click the links), this reminds me of a story from about 15 years ago, when a friend of mine, who always had a sharp eye for my errors, used the word "forebears" in one of his RKBA essays, and I thought I had finally caught him in one.
I suggested, kind of smugly, that he meant to write "forebearers," and was promptly, mercilessly and deservedly shown how wrong I was.
I was relating this humiliation to Sweetie later that day when younger feral son Qusay looked up from the floor and his toys in eye-rolling confusion.
"It's THREE bears," he scolded me.

‘Few answers’ conclusion on massacres presupposes right questions being asked
The answers to all of these killings aren’t as difficult to decipher as Pearce’s headline would have readers believe. Unfortunately, they don’t fit the “legitimate” news media’s “blame guns” narrative. Nor do they advance the political establishment’s agenda to exploit situations government policies enable in order to make gun ownership more difficult for people who aren’t criminals and crazies. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the wrong questions are being asked for a reason.

Clerk’s fiery murder highlights importance of armed self-defense
Left unanswered is the question “What if what they want is your life?” After all, that’s what’s being threatened in every single robbery, regardless of how much is in the register. [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes giving predators what they want can be a lot more dangerous than giving them what they deserve.
Where They Stand
FFL Guard raises important points about defining roles, responsibilities and expectations. [More]
This is important in any organization, but especially in those that are heavily regulated.
If you don't have jobs and processes defined, how can there be any standards and accountability?
Compliance is no great trick. All it requires is organized and standardized discipline and control.
This isn't just opinion. I did this for decades in my sordid past for industries as diverse and regulated as medical devices, pharmaceuticals, defense electronics and medical practice management, and some of them were pretty big ventures.
The ones that let me do my job had no problem passing audits with flying colors.

"This AK-47"?
"Weapons of choice," eh? I've been wondering what those were.
Police are at a disadvantage, you see, being outgunned and all, and they only have one way to protect themselves: Kill you if you're armed. And just like with "gun buybacks": No questions asked.
"You only gotta get hit by one round for it do do extreme damage to the human body."
Gee, chief, can I be smart like you some day?

“The conduct of disruptive members of the audience is indefensible and an affront both to civil democratic society and to the university’s core values of dialogue and the free exchange of views,” Paxson’s statement read. [More]Free exchange? Really?

DQ: Something Different
Before the robber could grab any cash, police say the owner of the Dairy Queen took out a gun and opened fire. [More]That is something different: Don't give them what they want, give them what they deserve.
After all, they've already demonstrated what they want is your life if you don't obey them, and maybe even if you do, and what more "cherished asset' do you have than that?

Group seeks end to gun ban in Connecticut parks and forests
While it’s not part of the recommended letter, it wouldn’t hurt -- just to help work up the motivation to send one -- to understand that Gov. Malloy and his family have no need to hike through state forests unprotected, not with “a security detail made up more than 12 State Troopers” that racked up $1.1 million in taxpayer-funded overtime.

Adam Collins, a spokesman for the Police Department, says it would be out of the question to resell the guns.

California court ruling undermines victory declaration on ‘assault weapons’ veto
While Gov. Brown may very well have been swayed by tens of thousands of letters (although he handily beat anti-gun Republican Meg Whitman in the 2010 election with over a million votes), and while his explanation that “I don't believe that this bill's blanket ban on semi-automatic rifles would reduce criminal activity or enhance public safety enough to warrant this infringement on gun owners' rights” may be sincere, that doesn’t mean he won’t be receptive to future, less ambitious erosion. And there’s another significant factor that we addressed at the start of this report, one that may have had a significant impact of its own: The Zondorak case. [More]
