The petition is not absolutist, and does make concessions to existing edicts. Potential supporters will need to decide for themselves whether an approach conceding to existing realities is something they perceive as a practical vehicle to make incremental gains. If not, what preferred route toward the goal of “shall not be infringed” is likely to produce superior results? [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report looks at the pros and cons of a grassroots constitutional initiative effort to recognize RKBA in California.

Petition seeks to add constitutional protections for California gun owners
GRE Updates
Until I am back in full, I'm just going to remind you that Dave Workman and Kurt Hofmann continue to produce outstanding columns, so just because I haven't been up to making individual posts, please take it on yourself to go to their home pages, linked above, to see their most recent offerings.
And share their individual column links, won't you?

EVOLVE with The Daily Caller
They've picked up my latest GUNS Magazine "Rights Watch" column. [More]
Rate Kate
I always look forward to my monthly chats with Kate--we cover a lot of ground but have a lot of fun doing it, and I think when people are having a good time and an enthusiastic conversation, that shows through and makes for good radio.
If you're a reader who also tunes in to her Sunday program, why not make giving her your rating today's One Minute Activism task (see, it won't even take five)? Or do you feel there's too much pro-gun information out there in the mass media?
Click and do, please.
And no, this post doesn't mean I'm back in full operational mode.

Sick Day
I'll live, but please hold off on comments and emails until I'm back in full.
UPDATE--DAY TWO (March 12):
I'm going to try to get a GRE column out today, and have an announcement or two I may post here, depending on if I feel up to it. This gives me a whole new understanding and respect for what it must take out of Mike to be as prolific as he is considering his challenges and how mine pale to them.
Please continue to hold on inputs--I just won't be able to get to them.

‘Pro-gun Democrat’ once more places Obama administration over gun rights
In spite of that, one “A-rated” Democrat, Sen. John Tester of Montana, joined with confirmed anti-gunners Chuck Schumer, Dianne Feinstein, Dick Durbin and others. [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes a politician playing both ends against the middle – and evidently getting away with it.
Armed American Radio Redux
Grassroots from CA with Gene Hoffman of CalGuns. Mike Vanderboegh returns to AAR and talks CT gun control and the dangers associated with enforcement of the new law, Alan Gottlieb of the Second Amendment Foundation, David Codrea, George Hill, Seanto and more!
A Disconnect...
...between claims and reality... [More]
And to Anonymous at 10:07 AM: I was here.
Defying an engineered "compromise." And using my real name.

A Pre-Shtup Agreement
The party of the first part shall be known in this contract as the party of the first part... [More]
Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning...I was blind for three days!

We're the Only Ones Impatient Enough
CT Cop to Gun Owning Patriot: “I Cannot Wait to Get the Order to Kick Your Door In” [More]I suppose without recording it, he won't be able to reveal the name without being sued. It does drive home the message never talk to the cops, or if you must, refuse unless it is recorded.
[Via several of you]
UPDATE: We have what looks like confirmation. And more.
Questions Grow
Finally concerning California, I am reminding you that I still haven’t heard anything back from Smith & Wesson on whether they will continue to supply handguns that have not been microstamped to California LEOs while they don’t sell at all to California residents. [More]And are these guys going to continue training the gun edict enforcers?
The Volokh Conspiracy
"… even if bans on magazines with more than 10 rounds are unwise, not all unwise restrictions are unconstitutional. That’s true for speech restrictions. It’s true for abortion restrictions. And I think it’s true for gun restrictions as well." [More]That view doesn't surprise me.
It doesn't surprise me at all.
Meanwhile, Over at the Propaganda Ministry
This is all we need to know about those feeding at the Think Progress trough. [More]
Just like their counterparts at Media Matters.
Just like their counterparts at Media Matters.
Why?
Because they're frustrated, self-loathing cowards revenging themselves on others as a way of denying their own deficiencies? [More]
I mean, we already know they're sadists and psychopaths. And some of them are even professionals at it.
On the positive side, those they attack can take comfort knowing the people harassing them are unloved and miserable.

I Didn't Mean It!
And I was misunderstood because I didn't have enough time. [Watch]
You believe that, don't you?
I mean, so what if I was quoting a guy who says NRA members are "the new KKK"?

It Could Never Happen Here
In Manhattan Beach, crimes in which victims suffer physical wounds are basically unheard of. [More]Really? How come I've heard of them, and I haven't lived there in over 10 years?
Heck, they even have bank robberies.
And while I know Manhattan Beach's unofficial spokeshoplophobe Russ Lesser would consider repelling these animals with a gun to be in "bad taste," there are those of us who view financially supporting companies like BodyGlove that are run by such anti-gun bigots to be bad economics, in a giving aid and comfort to the enemy kind of way...
Sharon Tate lived in a pretty safe neighborhood herself, until...
Coincidence?
Any connection between this and this?
I don't want to start a rumor, but I do think it bears watching until we learn what the reason for the raid was.
UPDATE: Kurt has more.
