Depending on police for personal safety is a no-win game

That’s more than delaying call response—that’s preventing calls in the first place—and doing it to preempt rights and for self-serving reasons. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary  wonders what kind of game authorities are playing where they not only won't allow you to protect yourself, they won't even allow you to call them for help.  All in the name of "public safety."

Homeland Security’s ‘active shooter’ instructions betray founding intent

[I]t’s not like the folks wallowing around in that $57B they requested for FY 2012 have Clue One about what’s really “necessary to the security of a free State”... [More]

Day By Day annual support fund drive deserves our help

The very essence of what we profess to be about demands we reward individuals for value received. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column is a challenge to test that by putting the money where the mouth is.

Burgess v. Wallingford

I had Richard Burgess on the program today. Bottom line: He was arrested for open carry, which is legal.  He's essentially funding his lawsuit by himself and nobody should have to do that, as what he's doing will benefit all "Constitution State" gun owners.

Go here to learn more and click on "Donate" if you agree.  And ask the gun groups to help.

Down the Rabbit Hole

This is beyond outrageous. [Read]

And as far as the anonymous snitch, whatever happened to the right to confront your accuser? We ought to all know who these evil little Nazi informants in our midst are.

It would appear people in Jefferson County have more than rabbits to protect from Mink and like-minded weasels.

Now THAT'S Funny Right There

I don't know who to credit, but it was posted on Guns Values Board. And "Why Guys Shouldn't Play with Dolls" is a perfect caption.

As a boy, I always thought G.I.Joes were suspect for that reason--we didn't have the term "action figure" back then, and the kid in the neighborhood who had one was, like 11, a year younger than me, and he watched Jonny Quest, which, face it, was for children, so he was suspect too.  That I generally managed to find an excuse to be in the room when my little brother was watching it was entirely coincidental.

As for the neighbor kid's G.I. Joe? A stake, a blindfold and a Daisy was about the only thing we could figure to do with it that was any fun.

FBI adds ‘preppers’ to potential terrorists list

Essentially, the government is conflating Americans who believe in being prepared for disruptions in normal circumstances with potential domestic enemies who bear scrutiny, and are recruiting those they patronize to spy and snitch on their customers. As potential terrorists. For such suspicious activities as buying storable food. And paying in legal tender. [More]
