  • Mexico homicides
  • RFID chips in guns
  • Interview

Join me at 7:00 am Pacific/10:00 am Eastern on NBC 1260 AM/96.1 FM, Scottsdale, or click "Listen Live."

Archives are here.  They're posting by the week and replacing the show at each day's link the evening of the broadcast date. Also note encores are being rebroadcast on Saturday.

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.

Lineup subject to change without notice.

August 5, 1779
Action at Morrisania (Bronx), New York
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]

We're the Only Ones She Asked for it Enough

Woman's outfit blamed for police-dog bite [More]
Yeah, just look at the way she dressed. Tell me she didn't want it. They all want it. Every one of them. All the time.

Didn't they make a Jodie Foster movie about this?

Revisiting the Virginia Tech Gun Free Zone

Let's hope this turns out to be nothing.  If not, go get 'im, Larry and Colin!

How to Show Those You Love Most You Don't Trust Them


Good Lord.

And in case you're wondering how come he has guns, well he told us: Retired Only One now Bloomberg Paradise politico.

Figures he doesn't know the First Amendment from the Fourth. Hey, it's just an oath.

Figures he'd be a potential Lee Paige Award/Sucking Chest Wound Division finalist.

What does it look like to you his thumbs are doing?

Project Drugwalker?

U.S. federal agents allegedly allowed the Sinaloa drug cartel to traffic several tons of cocaine into the United States in exchange for information about rival cartels, according to court documents filed in a U.S. federal court. [More]
It fits with how they operate, and is there really anything anyone would put past them?  I'm sorry, I did not set out to be a "conspiracy theorist," but based on their own conduct over the years, I'm prepared to give just about anything a fair hearing.

I don't think there's anything these power and control-mad bastards could do that would surprise me any more.

Don’t trust sloppy mainstream reporting for gun rights news

Finding the information and talking to an official spokesperson took a grand total of five minutes—that’s certainly not too much to expect from a metropolitan newspaper with a “politics desk” and a readership looking to them for reliable reporting, is it? [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report corrects a record the "Authorized Journalists" won't.

Anti-concealed carry statistics don’t match up to real world

See, the armed Papa’s Pizza driver who defended himself from robbers in Detroit hadn’t read the Ayers/Donohue paper. Ah well, he probably couldn’t afford Stanford anyway. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes there are lies, damned lies and statistics, and the gungrabbers employ all three.

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...

Inside the 'kill box'

I think this story needs to go viral, because this kind of crap could happen to any of us. [More]
This afternoon's Gun Rights Examiner report is a brief one--but one that needs to be shared because it really could be any one of us next.

A Lesson for All

No, we've already learned that The Cleveland Plain dealer is a punk rag--hopefully a dying one--willing to ultimately assign the blame for feral statist pig behavior on freedom. [More]

It's the same crap"Authorized Journalists" are doing with Gunwalker--poor ATF had no choice because of all those darn lax gun laws. 

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.

Profiling and predicting a leftist agenda in academic papers on ‘gun control’

The three knuckleheads have tripped into a stoogepile right out of the starting gate, and have no credibility for either subject matter expertise or judgment from this point on. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column notes just because you have advanced degrees doesn't mean you've learned a damn thing.
