Order of Battle-JPFO-some of the good guys
December 13, 2008 | Leave a Comment
In keeping with the metaphor of war discussed in the last post, it is important to know on the battlefield of politics those who are your friends and and those who are your enemies. Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO) is one of the ideologically strongest advocates for American Citizens to retain [...]

“Imminence of Hostilities”-A Metaphor of Politics and War
December 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Some gun owners, notably those who voted Democrat in the last election, don’t seem to be worried about their right to self-defense under an Obama Administration. I believe they should be concerned. Thomas Campbell aptly said, ” …coming events cast their shadows before.” Indulge me for a moment in the metaphor of politics as war.

Just a thought about police response time
December 8, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Imagine for a moment that you are at home. You hear a noise. A violent felon kicks in your front door. Thankfully, you are next to a telephone. You pick up the handset and dial 911. “Hello, Police! A man just broke into my house. My address is…” You are now face to face with [...]

Re: Tom’s Comment on “Ammunition Accountability”
December 8, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Tom Parker wrote today that “…this is happening under a Republican-dominated Congress with a Republican president.” First of all, Ammunition Accountability hasn’t happened yet. The concept is being pushed in about eighteen state legislatures, apparently not yet at the Federal level. Finally, the GOP lost control of both Houses of Congress in 2006, so the [...]

Look for five weeks of legal concealed carry in national parks
December 6, 2008 | Leave a Comment
An alert from the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) came out Friday afternoon regarding the Interior Department’s decision to allow concealed carry in national parks, in accordance with the laws of the state in which the park is located. I’m guessing that this ruling will not survive the first week of [...]

Gun Control AIDS Virus attacks Second Amendment T Cell
December 3, 2008 | 2 Comments
For those of you not familiar with the AIDS Virus, it attacks T Cells, which are the sentries in the human body that identify and destroy disease causing organisms, before those organisms can spread. I believe gun control, no matter how “well-intentioned” is the AIDS Virus of tyranny attacking the guardian T Cells of [...]

“Ammunition Accountability” Yet another Liberal feel-good anti-gun rights idea!
November 28, 2008 | 2 Comments
What won’t they think of next? In addition to “Smart Gun” technology that has not been adequately tested, Liberals have come up with yet another way to inconvenience and harass law-abiding gun owners. Eighteen states are apparently considering “Ammunition Accountability” legislation.
According to a website promoting this idea, every single bullet made for certain caliber handguns [...]

Support Saxby Chambliss in Georgia!
November 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment
According to reports from numerous sources, the Democrats are pouring tremendous amounts of money into Georgia in the race that may determine whether “The Chosen One” “rules” with a filibuster-proof 60-vote majority in the U.S. Senate. I’ve contributed once. I will contribute again to try to preserve some vestige of the fundamental individual right to armed self-defense against [...]

Democrat wins endanger concealed carry and other rights
November 22, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Democrat election victories this year put hard-won “shall issue” concealed carry laws in jeopardy. In addition to other aspects of his dismal record on the fundamental individual right to armed self-defense against crime and tyranny, Barack Obama has stated his dislike for concealed carry laws.
In Washington State, Seattle’s Mayor has proclaimed his intention to [...]
