Emergency Response

Persons evacuating from a designated mandatory evacuation zone can lawfully carry firearms without license for up to 48 hours while in the process of evacuating. [More]
Florida Carry notes a simple change, effective immediately, that they helped bring about to "allow lawful gun owners to bring their guns with them during an emergency rather than being forced to leave them behind to fall in to the hands of looters or be destroyed in a disaster."

GOA supporters to question presidential hopefuls in ‘tele-town hall meeting'

In a way, that could end up being a litmus test of sorts by which gun owners will be able to separate politicians who will stand with them from those who will abandon them and turn tail at the first threat of “bad” press. That could be helpful in gauging if candidates are willing to stand fast on principles they actually believe in, or if they have merely been offering insincere platitudes in the hopes of gaining knee-jerk votes. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the "progressive" forces of inclusion and tolerance are frothing at the mouth in their desperation to scare GOP candidates away from GOA.

We're the Only Ones Youth-Oriented Enough

The city’s narcotics cops are being told to stop arresting suspects over the age of 40 — a major strategy shift designed to target younger dealers, who are more likely to carry guns and use them, The Post has learned. [More]
Forgetting for a moment the entire "war on drugs" argument, this means smart entrepreneurs will adjust their sales force accordingly, and distribution will increase... and those over 40 will have more incentive and less fear to carry protection.

An Academic Solution

The solution to gun-related crime is not further arming the public. It involves enacting comprehensive gun control laws that prohibit many forms of gun ownership, significantly curtailing or eliminating access to and the ability to purchase guns, and implementing programs in which the government confiscates or purchases illegal guns already in circulation among the public.

Murdered executive supported ‘gun control’-backing politician

It is not known at this writing is if they knew their killer(s). Also unstated at this time is if Savvas Savopoulos or his wife Amy owned guns, especially in light of the bureaucratic hurdles associated with "legally" owning firearms in the District, and if they did, if that would have made a difference. What is known, but is not being disclosed by mainstream media, is that the executive and his company supported a politician who is a strong proponent of “gun control.” [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a gun may not have made a difference, but no one has a right to make that choice for another. As for this being "too soon," if left to the antis, the time to explore this further would be "never."

Radical as it may seem, perhaps it's time we took deadly force off the table for all but the most extreme of circumstances. In some countries, police don't even carry guns during day-to-day patrols and are still able to maintain law and order. [More]
And if our highly-trained, professionals are disarmed, why should we let you keep and bear arms?

This is something I've been pointing out for at least 15 years:


It's know making its way into the "national conversation on guns" with more frequency, and while I know some of you are fine with that, think through what that would mean, including how that does not make you a proponent of "gun control."

As for you "Only Ones" who have no problem coming after us mundanes, the bell is tolling for thee, and to quote a theme song of yours, "what'cha gonna do when they come for you?"

Polyphemus may promise to eat you last, but eat you he intends...

Me, I see such calls from zealots who just don't have the self-control to hold it all in as a good thing. Nothing like their ox getting gored to wake some people up, plus I'm sure the more pragmatic in the gun ban crowd would prefer not to have such plans openly discussed -- yet.

Anti-gunners can set example with Swedish peace group’s ‘gay’ defense

Instead of carrying a gun for protection, “progressives” could demonstrate courage of convictions by going about their business dressed like a shirtless gay singing sailor, all the while “waving” their “white flag,” and saying “This way if you’re gay” to anyone who accosts them. And the same must hold true for anti-gun celebrities and politicians who currently employ armed bodyguards, which, as SPAS contends, only invites trouble. [More]
