Fort Hood Massacre updates
November 6, 2009 | 1 Comment
Major Nidal Hasan, who evidently perpetrated the shooting at Fort Hood, was not killed in the attack, nor was the female MP or security officer who stopped him. Initial reports that two others were involved in the incident seem to be incorrect at this time.
According to news sources, Hasan is a Muslim who disagreed with [...]

Fort Hood Shooter apparently Army Officer
November 5, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Early news reports on the shooting at Fort Hood indicate that the alleged perpetrator was a U.S. Army major armed with two handguns. In what seems to be some sort of “reverse fragging” incident, the major apparently “executed” 11 or 12 soldiers and wounded over 30 others, before being killed himself by a civilian security guard [...]

Obama’s Original School Speech-Zero Tolerance for Dissent-The Audacity of Expectations
September 11, 2009 | 2 Comments
The Left is nothing if not clever in the way they frame the ideological debate between Conservatism and their “Progressive” ideology. The “Zero Tolerance” policy regarding weapons on school grounds is a classic example. The Educational Establishment, made up of Left-wing administrators and teachers’ union members, forbids discussion of, artistic portrayal of, or display of [...]

Oh! The angst over CCW in National Parks!
September 4, 2009 | 1 Comment
There is no dearth of political commentary in newspaper comics these days. Prickly City has taken on the dreaded “Birthers.” Doonesbury is comparing Afghanistan to Vietnam. This comparison, by the way, may be apt, in that I believe the Left wants the enemies of America to win in Afghanistan, as they did in the earlier [...]

“Convenient” Shootings boost Left-wing Agenda
June 12, 2009 | 1 Comment
Those on the Left are going ballistic over the Holocaust Museum Shooting. They hoot that this tragic incident validates the Homeland Security Report’s portrayal of veterans as potential domestic terrorists. ”Progressive” pundits shout that this murder should be the basis for more restrictive gun laws. Before we all go off half-cocked, let us consider a few basic facts.
Washington D.C., [...]

It’s Columbine Season-Media Bias Reigns
April 13, 2009 | Leave a Comment
It’s that time of year again. On 04-12-09, the CBS “news” program, “60 Minutes,” aired a segment on the (Gasp!) increased number of gun purchases in the U.S. Of course, the “unbiased” “news” report managed to get in information about the Virginia Tech Massacre, recent police shootings, as well as the alleged link between U.S. [...]

New York Spree Killing Not Unexpected
April 3, 2009 | 1 Comment
The shooting of 13 people at the immigration help center in New York State adds fuel to the Liberal clamor for more gun control. We will have shootings as long as the Left pushes restrictive gun laws, limits concealed carry, mandates “gun free criminal-safe free fire zones,” and publishes the names and life stories of [...]

New computer-May have technical problems
March 22, 2009 | Leave a Comment
I will be working from a new computer for the next couple of weeks. Hopefully there will be minimal disruption. There is a lot going on: the tragedy of the Oakland police officer killings, the trial of the woman who “exercised” her husband to death in a swimming pool, and the trial of the man who [...]

Liberal Judge stops concealed carry in national parks
March 19, 2009 | 5 Comments
Well, it lasted longer than I predicted, and the Holder Justice Department defended the rule, but concealed carry permit holders are now barred by a preliminary injunction from carrying guns in national parks in accordance with the state law in which a park is located. Mainstream Media news reports on this topic almost always neglect [...]

Look for more shootings after church killing and more calls for gun control
March 12, 2009 | Leave a Comment
You have seen the news stories about the church killing and the family murder rampage by the man in Alabama. This week, there was a spree killing in Germany. Those on the Left and others who believe that disarmed, helpless people are safer than armed people will no doubt again raise their voices and demand that we surrender our [...]
