There's some good stuff being turned out. I hope you're availing yourself of it, and importantly, sharing these links via emails, on blogs and forums, with your local newspaper editor, etc.
A common complaint is media bias and absence of representation for "our side."
These people work hard to change that and ask for nothing from those of us their labors serve other than to help spread the word. I hope no one thinks that's too much to ask.
Here are their latest offerings:

South African Police Disarming Citizens as Their Need for Protection Grows
So just to make sure that if things really get bad, and they'll be absolutely powerless to protect much more than themselves, South African police are telling citizens to hand in their "unlicensed" guns--or else. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner column notes now might not be a good time to turn 'em in.
Also meet a congressional candidate from North Carolina who "gets it."

Now Showing as a Blip on Radar Screens Near You
They remain under the radar for now, but expect to hear a lot more about the dual April 19 rallies that will bring anti-government and pro-gun groups to the Washington region. [More]Well that's not true. There are groups that wish to respect the Constitution, but that's hardly anti-government.
Goodness, gracious. First the mad cow and now WaPo. The radar screens are lighting up.
I've watched with some surprise as the Oath Keepers, battered a bit by reports that call them "extremists," get more mainstream conservative acceptance.About time some of these freakin' self-styled "conservatives" woke up.
There can be no peace with some of the comment posters--they're bound and determined to seethe in ignorance and hatred. Let 'em.
Good thing for us that they impose a key disadvantage on themselves. I mean in addition to being satisfied Rapex customers.

We're the Only Ones Happy to Oblige Enough
Middle Ground
The failure of sensible South Africans to take back the racial middle ground in the country will be serious. [More]No kidding.
We need to do that here, too.
By "we" I mean "they". I plead "Not guilty."
My tribe is ideological. What we as individuals look like or where our forebears came from has no bearing on acceptance and belonging.
Gun Owners Can Build Bridges with Medical Community
By familiarizing ourselves with some of the medical community's "pro-gun players" and their works, we're in a better position to persuade doctors, who may have unquestioningly accepted certain anti-gun tenets, into taking a closer look. And being able to introduce them to peers who present findings through professional journals lends a credibility that should encourage at least the fair-minded into doing just that. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner column suggest actions we might take to offset the top-driven anti-gun sentiment that pervades the medical establishment.

This Day in History: April 9
Extract of a letter from Kildare, Monmouth county, April 9, 1778.
"About 135 of the enemy landed on Sunday last [5 Apr 1778] about ten o'clock, on the south side of Squan inlet, burnt all the salt-works, broke the kettles, &c. stripped the beds, &c. of some people there, who I fear, wish'd to serve them then crossed the river and burnt all excepting Dirrick Longstreet's: after this mischief they embarked. The next day they landed at Shark river and set fire to two small works, when they observed fifteen horsemen heave in sight, which occasioned them to retreat with great precipitation, indeed they jumped in their flat-bottomed boats in such confusion that they sunk one or two of them. One of their pilots was the noted Thomas Oakeson. The enemy consisted chiefly of Greens, the rest Highlanders." [More]

We're the Only Ones "Blind Date" Enough
Orban allegedly forced the woman to drive to a Fontana industrial area, raped her and left, getting a ride back from Jelinek. Investigators say they suspected Orban after he left his service revolver in the woman's car. [More]Westminster cops are still issued revolvers?
The good thing is, being in Southern California pretty much assures that the "Only Ones" legally allowed to carry were in total control of a criminal situation.

"Der Feuer" Continues Hate Campaign Against Gun Owners
A California Democrat is proposing a new law requiring residents to register their shotguns and rifles or go to jail...Feuer is no friend of firearms owners...[More]Talk about an understatement.
Hey, it's nice to know that they have a handle on real crime in Kollyfornya and that the Golden State economy is healthy enough to handle the extra load in terms of record keeping, policing, prosecution and jailing of otherwise productive citizens. So nobody is going to be coming to the rest of us for a bailout because they're "too big to fail" or anything, right?
"Der" knows his proposal will have no effect on crime other than to squander limited law enforcement resources and create a new class of "criminal." It's been the same with every other attack on freedom he's gotten ink for over the years.
So why does he do it?
Easy.
Because he hates you and he can.
Because his constituents let him.

A Case of Mistaken Identity
Vanderboegh links to a putrid Daily Kos post so I don't have to.
I actually take heart reading stuff like this. Conflating us with Nixon, who wanted to ban handguns, and Bloomberg...?
Sun Tzu advises to know your enemy. They're oblivious to who we are and what we believe, and prefer instead to follow in lockstep like lemmings the talking points put out there to demonize/dehumanize us.
It's a two-edged sword--while it creates a dangerous climate for us as a group being vilified, the differences from, say, 70 years ago in Europe, are that we are not ethnically separable, we are not segregated into enclaves and we are not unarmed.
Look at some of the tags--these creatures think our motivational inspiration comes from Rush Limbaugh? Sarah Palin? Michelle Bachman and Glenn Beck?
I say let them think we're too dumb to form independent thought without corporate media and Republican establishment leaders, and dismiss us as as low tooth-to-head ratio slack-jawed yokels. Knowing the skills some non-urban folk have at the basics, from a strictly Darwinian sense we'll see who is more highly adaptable when TSHTF.
