John McCain shored up the Conservative Base; reassured many gunnies, including me; helped himself with Evangelicals; attracted many female Democrats and Independents; got a running mate with credentials as a reformer; made Hillary Rodham Clinton incredibly bitter about her party (in my opinion); and left the Democrats trying to figure out why the only woman in [...]

     Ye Hah! The Roman circus has come to Denver! Tonight we will see Obama’s Nuremberg Moment.  A Greco-Roman temple?  What?  No togas?  Who will be the filmographer who will make his Triumph of the Will?  Michael Moore comes to mind.  Hopefully, Obama will be a mere also-ran, a footnote to history, rather than the founder [...]

According to a story in the Boulder Daily Camera, the Colorado University Regents last week rejected a student petition to allow licensed CCW permit holders to carry guns on campuses in the university system.  Regents commenting on the petition presentation cited “inflammatory rhetoric” and lack of facts and logic in refusing to consider the issue.  [...]

In my opinion, there is something odd about the arrest of Wyoming resident Joseph Calanchini at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s hotel on Saturday.  The bust was apparently made on the basis of Calanchini’s attempt  to check into the Grand Hyatt Hotel with a cased hunting rifle.  I know of no Colorado or Federal law that would make such [...]

Barack Obama’s VP pick reinforces his image as the quintessential anti-individual rights candidate.  In addition to his own far-Left agenda on guns, which include: destroying concealed carry, banning handguns, increasing taxes on guns and ammunition, extending and expanding the Clinton semi-auto ban, and licensing gun owners; Barack Hussein Obama has picked an “F” rated candidate as [...]

An AP article at newsmax.com describes the horrible situation south of the border, where the witches’ brew of illegal drugs, gun control, gangs, and police corruption are driving citizens into the streets to protest the mayhem.  Imagine living in a society where it is very difficult to legally own a gun for self-protection and where gangs and [...]

A story by Brittany Anas from The Boulder Daily Camera that was printed in the Rocky Mountain News indicates that the Colorado Springs Chapter of Students for Concealed Carry on Campus plans to petition CU Regents to allow permit holders to carry on school property controlled by the University of Colorado.  I agree with the opinion expressed in [...]

In her excellent article, “Raging against Self-Defense, A Psychiatrist Examines the Anti-Gun Mentality,” Dr. Sarah Thompson does a great job of describing the roles of projection, denial and reaction formation in what Colonel Jeff Cooper labeled hoplophobia, that is, an irrational fear of weapons.  Projection, denial, and reaction formation are among the defense mechanisms postulated by Sigmund [...]

According to an AP story in the Denver Post, Maryland police raided the home of the Berwyn Heights mayor on July 29th and shot his two black labs over a package of marijuana that had been placed on the front porch.  The parcel was apparently part of a dope smuggling scheme that involved a FedEx employee, who delivered pot-filled [...]

A few weeks ago, we received a letter from unicef soliciting money to help out in violence-ridden Darfur.  If you’re as old as I am, you may remember that as children,  many of us used to take our little milk cartons and go door to door doing the “Trick or treat for unicef!” number, instead of collecting candy [...]
