"Authorized Journalists" want nothing to do with reporting on it, as this Google News search demonstrates. That means most people, including most self-styled gun advocates, have probably never even heard about the Reese family's ordeal, let alone learned any of the details. And that means, if you think that's wrong, only you can help by sharing these links with your friends.

I don't know why the breathless Brit rewriting the Local 4 Detroit TV news piece acts so judgmental about witnesses doing nothing -- what the hell would he be prepared to do about it?

J'accuse!
False reports outpace sex assaults in the military [More]
Of course, false reports also have grave and offensive consequences for civilians. particularly when an unmerited TRO results in a firearms disability--and in some cases, you don't even need an accusation of a sexual assault.
Some are fighting back, although they could stand an education on the difference between self defense and "vigilantism."

The Guns of Tomorrow
At least according to Masshole Rep. John Tierney, who either doesn't realize how ignorant suggesting mandating "smart guns" makes him, or is merely counting on the fact that anyone stupid enough to vote for him can pretty much be conned into anything. [Read]
So it figures the idiot metrosexuals at Slate would go all gushy over the idea, especially if an anti-gun James Bond actor can be made up to look all heroic and manly with it.

Reese lawyers respond to government motion against joint representation
“The Government implies the price of obtaining justice for some of the Reese family members would be for one family member to fall on his or her sword,” the response assesses. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner exclusive notes the character of those who demand a blood sacrifice.

This Day in History: May 16
May 16, 1781 at Portevent's Mill, Duplin Co., North Carolina - On May 16, the Loyalist force, commanded by Maj. ?? Mobley, was camped at Portevent's Mill. Some scouts from the Patriot force, commanded by Col. James Kenan, discovered the Loyalists at the mill grinding some corn. They sent word back to the main force letting Kenan know about their finding. They attacked the Loyalists at the mill. The Loyalists fled in all directions after a brief skirmish. The Patriots pursued them up the Six Runs River. A final skirmish ensued after a quick ambush was set up by a part of the Patriots. A Loyalist discovered the ambush and the Loyalists attacked the Patriot flank. Hand-to-hand fighting took place, with the Loyalists eventually fleeing into the swamp. Conclusion: American Victory. Casualties: American: 3k, 3+w; British: 12k, 4w, 12c [More]

Great Expectations

Reese family requests partial asset release for legal, living expenses
“Defendants, Rick Reese and Terri Reese … move this Court to enter an order authorizing the release of a portion of their seized assets to pay for upcoming legal expenses as well as to provide life subsistence,” the motion begins. Assets listed which could be used for this purpose include real property, vehicles, coins and currency. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report describes a cage match where a raging leviathan with unlimited reserves takes on powerless victims it's been beating down and trying to destroy for almost two years--and just to keep things fair, they've bound their victims' hands and legs so they can't fight back.
This is modern "justice" in America, courtesy of a government that has an obligation to secure the Blessings of Liberty as a primary reason for its existence .
Typical Anti-Gunners
They break the law when it suits them, the government lets them, and when they get caught they all lie about it. [Read]

And the Hits Just Keep on Coming
No sooner did Stanley Fish get done calling us un-American than Charlie Blow calls us paranoids. [Read]
Add Julian Bond calling us Taliban racists and the demonization is complete. Except for the part about us being hicks with small dicks.
There is no question we are in a cold civil war these evil fools are trying to ignite. There can be no peace with such as these.
They will not allow it.
The options are surrender or victory.

I Know You Are, But What Am I
What else do you expect Stanley Fish to say? [Read]
The one thing he and his fellow travelers never will is what their personal line in the sand for resisting tyranny would be. That's because they want an unchallengeable monopoly of violence, and can't conceive that when an idiot's usefulness has expired, he will too.
Actually, the one thing that caught my eye more than Stanley's steaming was this comment:
At one time, Benedict Arnold was a war hero, too. I guess Combat Vet didn't understand that oath he took? And if his batteries were so effective, I guess victory has been declared and liberty established wherever he deployed them?
The one thing I don't understand though, is where in this country, and under what circumstances, he'd use those five-inch shells? Since it's not exactly like a "We are everywhere" resistance would obligingly line up on the green in Wellington-style squares...
And some of them are combat vets.
