Armed Citizens
I'm on NRA's mailing lists, and they send me their regular "Armed Citizen" email. The one for April is out, and here are the stories they included:
Opposite Day
A recurring theme here is how those who call themselves "progressives" are exactly the opposite, and what they advocate produces diametrically opposed results.
How unsurprising that, under this great column by Rand Paul, the one comment that sticks out as imbecilic comes from some idiot who has chosen the handle "Thinking Guy."

A Glaring Double Standard
...real Americans who stood for their beliefs, thinking they were patriots and defending their country's ideals against their government. [More]But only for commies.
If you believe in founding principles, you're an anti-government extremist and racist.
And people who take you down will be heroes.
Truth in Advertising
It's time for a concerted effort to make Mike Bloomberg and his so-called Mayors Against Illegal Guns disclose who their self-proclaimed TV ad gun owner is. [More]I couldn't agree more.
Sometimes, un Hombre's Gotta Do...

Sometimes, enough is enough.
I hope everybody is paying attention to what could be done if things get desperate enough, collectivist wusses who publicly ridicule the idea as fantasy notwithstanding.

This Day in History: March 29
The count had not been unmindful of his instructions to attempt some enterprise for the relief of the American colonies; even before he reached the West Indies he wrote Rochambeau, saying that by the end of June he wished to be fully informed as to the strength and position of the English armies in North America, as a guide for his future action. Not before the middle of July could he leave the West Indies, and as the time for his stay on the American coast must be short, it was important for him to have full information at the earliest possible moment (De Grasse to Rochambeau, March 29, 1781 ; Doniol, v, 488.)

We're the Only Ones Going Out with a Bang Enough
McKinley offers true hope and change from Chicago machine politics
“Let me be clear; I will fight to protect every aspect of the Second Amendment and to support my Illinois colleagues' efforts to bring Concealed Carry to our great state,” he pledged. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary is urging everyone to pick up this wrench and throw it in The Machine.
Fudd's Little Acres
I've so far resisted writing about that downward-spiraling, self-imploding manic-depressive headcase Jim Carrey, as why he doesn't trust himself, and through projection, all others with guns (except for his bodyguard) is pretty clear.
But here's someone you probably haven't heard of, who has volunteered himself for gun owner scrutiny:
And here's the website from the resort his Twitter profile says he manages, which "welcome[s] fishermen and hunters alike."
Sorry, guy. I'd hardly feel welcome. And there are plenty of other places where I would.

Now That's What I'm Talkin' About
I've been urging activists to do this for a while now, occasionally bringing up reminders and going so far as to offer incentives.
It's nice to see some do. here are two successful efforts Russell Greenidge sent me that show us how it's done:
If the author's name sounds familiar, you've got a good memory.
I actually got my start doing RKBA-based letters to the editor before going on to newsletters, blogging and then articles. My very first letter was published in The Los Angeles Times and my very second appeared in the Daily Breeze -- on the same day. That encouraged me to try some more, and I ended up with a nice portfolio of published letters before I gave that up to focus on publishing my own content.

Why Don't They Like Me?

Hey, if they respected whores, they wouldn't use them in the first place.
Get this, gunquislings contemplating appeasement: compromise will not buy you anything.
It will give the enemy a beachhead from which to plan and launch their next assault. What do they have to do, spell it out for you?
When surrounded by circling jackals, there are few dumber ideas than tossing them a scrap of flesh in the hopes that it will satisfy them and induce them to go away and leave you alone.

Can Rand Paul Bring Libertarians Into the GOP?
What, you mean "wacko birds"? [Read]
I suppose they could let some of "those people" caddy for them, but they're sure as hell not going to invite them to play...
