Maryland Police overstep their authority--big time. :: 01/16/2014

Detroit, the Chief and the Armed Citizens- Part Two :: 01/14/2014
We previously reported on the no nonsense, pro freedoms, pro responsible gun owners stance taken by Detroit's Chief of Police.

He correctly states that no, he doesn't want to see everybody armed, just responsible gun owners. This is a video presentation well worth watching.

The Unconstitutional State :: 01/12/2014 "Weathering the cold on the last day of 2013 was an intentional indignity forced on Connecticut gun owners.

State Universities Turned into Victim Disarmament Zones--NOT SO FAST! :: 01/10/2014 Much to our surprise, the Post Gazette actually has a fairly balanced article on the idea of turning State run Universities into Gun Free Zones.

Castle Doctrine Lesson Learned the hard way :: 01/08/2014 This instance of an armed robbery gone horribly wrong for the robber is clearly a Castle Doctrine defense, additionally, we suppose you could make an argument for disparity of force, but don't overlook the disparity of common sense. Old age and cunning will beat youth and strength, especially when old age an cunning uses, appropriately in this case, lethal force. The grandmother in this case is emotionally torn. That's common, and hopefully she'll be treated for PTS (we don't use PTSD, because post traumatic stress is real, its a natural reaction, and its hardly a "disorder")IF YOU HAVE A FIREARM IN YOUR HOME FOR DEFENSE, PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO AND LEARN.
