Law Enforcement and Joe Biden Give Awful Advice! :: 03/08/2013
"You are on your own!" Listen to this 8 minute video. Thankfully, here in the Keystone State, we KNOW we're responsible for our own safety. The advice from some law enforcement officers, and Vice Pres. Joe Biden, will shock you. Towards the end, the Sherrif of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, has his own take on personal protection. He should tour the country with HIS message. http://patriotoutdoornews.com/5759/video-youre-on-your-own
Insensitive, or just plain out of touch? You be the judge. :: 03/06/2013
Colorado's Senator Hudak, speaking from her committee chair, makes the most outrageous and insensitive statement I've ever heard. When a Republican made a similar statement, he was beat from pillar to post in the media (and he SHOULD have been, too), but Senator Hudak is getting a free pass. Read the article, and you decide if the anti-gunners have it right, or horribly wrong. Thanks to Mike Christenson for this update. Be sure to listen to the video, and watch the young rape victims reaction.

Let's do it like Arizona--gun buybacks,indeed. :: 02/21/2013
PHOENIX -- In Arizona, where guns are allowed in bars and concealed weapons can be carried without a permit, state lawmakers are moving to force police to sell -- rather than destroy -- firearms they collect in the wake of Tucson's scrapping more than 200 last month.
I want to write, too! :: 02/20/2013
After several meetings, and tutorials, Krystal has found that yes, you actually can teach on old dog new tricks. That said, you want to write an article. By all means, do it. Write it, spell check it, and simply send it to submissions&foacpac.org . I try to look at the submissions weekly, or sometimes more frequently. If your article is used, it will appear on the webpage as a featured article, or it will go into the news articles you can look up. Not every article is going to be chosen, but we're going to be relying on social media such as this website, or our "Official" Facebook page. You can see the official page at https://www.facebook.com/#!/foacpac?fref=ts . You can, for the moment, still get on the non moderated Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/100913181555/?fref=ts and comment there, too. We would love to hear from you, especially now that I know how to drive the bus!

Farnese vs. Metcalfe :: 02/18/2013
For those of you who missed the fireworks, Daryl Metcalfe beat Senator Farnese's every anti gun argument. Hopefully, you can still find the debate on PCN. Other than looking like a complete fool, Senator Farnese showed that the anti-gunners will go to every length, and use every dirty trick possible, to ban your guns, your magazines, and your ammo.

What History Tells Us..... :: 02/18/2013
Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892-1984) expresses his feelings regarding the the inactivity of German intellectuals following the Nazi rise to power and the purging of their chosen targets. "When the Nazis came for the communists, I remained silent; I was not a communist. When they locked up the social democrats, I remained silent; I was not a social democrat. When they came for the trade unionists, I did not speak out; I was not a trade unionist. When they came for the Jews, I remained silent; I wasn't a Jew. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out."
