If You Don't Want to Be Eaten By Wild Animals...

...it's a pretty good idea not to walk into their habitat and place yourself at the mercy of their instincts. [More]

I wondered what the hell she was doing there in the first place.

Going to a Lecture Tonight...

...to listen to the author of "The Court-Martial of Paul Revere: A Son of Liberty and America's Forgotten Military Disaster," hosted by the Hudson Historical Society. [More]

You can learn more about the book here.

I guess this means we miss "Wheel of Fortune"...

What Man Giveth

Man taketh away. [More]

I don't care if you say "endowed by our Creator" or "inherent to the condition of being human," the bottom line is, there's not a man on the planet with a legitimate claim to mine. Least of all the contemptible and profane Chris Cuomo.

Grassley Presses Lynch

Meanwhile, the defrauding charges are so severe, Judge Allegra has ordered a Special Master to be appointed to the Dobyns case. [More]
That's big. That means he's calling in troops to help because there's so much work to do.

You May Be an Extremist


Hence the term "monopoly of violence"...[More]

EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!

ANTI-GUNNERS LIE! [More]

Dang. If you can't even believe Oregon Bolsheviks, who can you trust?

Time to be Reasonable

I agree. [More]

You don't force me into a bar fight and I won't smash you in the face with  this chair. We can then both go about our business undisturbed.

What could be more reasonable than that?

We're the Only Ones A Little Different Enough

Both were charged with resisting arrest, which is the usual contempt of cop charge used in Florida. In New York, it’s obstruction of governmental operations, which at least sounds legitimate. [More]
Yeah, just wait and see how much more "legitimate" New York wants to make it.

So: How does it feel to be on the receiving end?  And how is it taxpayers foot the bill for "public service" jobs that allow people young enough to still have teenage kids to retire?

We're the Only Ones Trick Shooting Enough

A bullet accidentally fired from a police sergeant’s gun at his work desk was shot through the wall of his office, into the kitchen, through the refrigerator, into the Communications area, through another wall, ricocheting off a flat screen TV, and finally coming to a stop in a hallway garbage can. [More]
That's probably because the guy's an instructor.  I doubt a novice "Only One" could have hit that many targets.

I Don't Know Art

But I know what I like. [More]

That Norman Rockwell Triple Self Portrait parody is hilarious.

It looks like a good opportunity for local gun owners and Oath Keepers to get involved in providing protection.

And Yet ANOTHER Nevada Development

It looks like they're trying to expand who can "legally" carry. [More]

It would be interesting to see if there are any "equal protection" implications for people from states that don't give them the option to qualify...

Nevada Campaign Command Central

Nevadans for State Gun Rights have launched their new website, which includes not just the latest information, but ways for YOU to get involved. [More]

Not from Nevada?  Do you think that won't result in the choice between complying or becoming a "law-breaker" -- with all the life and livelihood-destroying potentials that involves -- coming to your state next?

Doesn't it make more sense to stop that now, where only a little effort on your part is needed, than waiting until the effort that will be required could become unimaginably terrible?

Make today's Five-Minute Activism project twofold: Visit the site and learn, and then share it with everyone you know and urge them to follow suit.

Still not sure? Sir Winston would like a word with you...

New York Times spreads anti-gun junk science hysteria against concealed carriers

Understand that this is the “paper of record” that didn't seem to have a problem with concealed carry when publisher “Punch Sulzberger” had one of the rare permits only the connected elites “qualify” for” (because he carried “large sums of money,” obviously more important than your life). And VPC is a group that has proudly centered its “assault weapon” ban strategy on an admitted deception, relying on gullible low-information marks to not know the difference between a semi-automatic firearm and a machine gun. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists doing what they do best -- spreading subversive lies.

The Search is On

I am trying to assist a friend who needs to "locate a WY resident who is disabled or otherwise incapable of firing a traditionally configured handgun."

I can't tell you more now except it involves this.

If you are or know of such a person who is curious to learn more, shoot me an email (dcodrea@hotmail.com).

About Those "Right Wing Extremist Christians"

Is there anything "progressives" won't lie about? [More]

Crumbling Around the Edges

Liston Matthews assesses yesterday's court victory with a look at the way things used (ought) to be. [More]

Why is Charles Kieser Still Employed by the TSA?

I can think of a different question. [More]

Missing the Point

Spooking lawmakers with guns isn’t political genius [More]
What makes you think "politics" is their primary goal?

They're here, they're determined, they're growing and they're fed up. You can continue condemning them, as most no doubt will, but you're not going to stop them without overwhelming police state force attacking the exercise of the uninfringed right to keep and bear arms.

If and when that happens, whose side will you be on?

So who do "we" heed? Americans demanding back what is theirs, or "lawmakers" who are "spooked" by that?

I note some of the loudest voices from our side decrying the open carriers have been absolutely --and intentionally -- silent on the biggest threat to gun rights we are facing over the next few decades, another new paradigm, and have offered no credible refutation of the data to help us understand why they continue to do nothing.

UPDATE: Mike shares his thoughts.

Put Out My Hand and Touched the Face of God

He was awarded the Navy Cross, the highest award for valor after the Medal of Honor. [More]
My older brother tells me our uncle was campaigning to get him the gold. If we can locate what he wrote, I'll follow up on this post.


The Fix is In

I guess the next president is going to be a Democrat, no matter who we "vote" for. [More]

I cannot and will not lend my support to such subversive destruction. There is no "lesser evil" here.
