Negative to Positive

In contrast to Linoge’s “Unencumbered stupidity”, and the sad events that transpired with the “santa shooting” near Los Angeles, I’d like to present some positive self-defense firearm articles from across the country, courtesy of America’s First Freedom, January 2009:
A 23-year-old University of Arizona student was at his residence several

For future reference: Cell phones do not survive a full cycle in a washing machine.
So… does anyone have an old Verizon cell phone they are not using any more that they would sell for cheap?…

First, I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas all over again.
Second, it would appear as though I have been writing at this particular web address for the past three years, and online in general for another four-or-so years before that (though I have no way of …

Well, I realize that by telling more people about this, I decrease my overall chances of winning, but considering that I have never won… anything… in my life, I am not holding my breath.
The DownRange.tv weblog has a link for a giveaway where you could, possibly, maybe win:

How to Win a Fight With a Liberal is the ultimate survival guide for political argumentsHow to Win a Fight With a Liberal is the ultimate survival guide for political arguments

My Conservative Identity:

You are an Anti-government Gunslinger, also known as a libertarian conservative. You believe in smaller government, states’ rights, gun rights, and that, as Reagan once said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”

a president and a gentleman

It is always interesting how you learn the most about someone after they are no longer around.

But the size and scope of Mr. Bush’s and Mr. Cheney’s private endeavors to meet with wounded soliders and families of the fallen far exceed anything that has been witnessed publicly, according to

unencumbered stupidity

What do you know – I did get a chance to scribble something down. Anywise, halfwit dumbasses like this one can completely ruin my day.

Police said a Williamson County man is facing charges after he allegedly pulled a gun Saturday on a woman over a parking spot.

over the horizon

Just as fair warning, Better Half and I will be embarking on a country-spanning, visit-the-families-for-the-holidays trip starting… today, and posting will probably be rather light in the future. Shane should still be around here somewhere, so if he decides to post, you will have that… but otherwise, I only have …

heroes at home

Speaking anecdotally, I knew of at least 3000 service members from the Marine Corps and Navy who missed Christmas at home last year, myself included. We deployed the month before, and celebrated Christmas somewhere around a little collection of islands known as the Maldives, if I remember properly. Those …

the foamy threat

You know, if the BATFE has not started regulating NERF guns, they bloody well had better start – I mean, something like this, having a maximum cyclic rate of 500 rounds a minute (before it melts), could easily bring down like a helicopter or jetliner in a single shot! …

sued samaritan

On the other hand, while some progress has been made concerning firearm rights in the Peoples’ Republic of Kalifornistan, in other areas, the state is still proving itself to be the bastion of idiotic liberalism we have all come to know and hate.
Thanks to frivolous lawsuits, bloodsucking lawyers, …

peaceful progress

While I may have escaped the clutches of the evil People’s Republic of Kalifornistan, I still keep up with what is transpiring back there, and I have recently received a few interesting emails from the CalGuns folks I thought I would post up to get them a little publicity. First …

Mr. Completely seems to be feeling at least a little better – he wrote a rather interesting post on the various and sundry distinctions between all the different forms of steel target shooting. Definitely worth a read, especially for people like me who are looking to get into some form

armed samaritan

Well, a few days ago, I posed the following hypothetical situation: when a woman is faced with an armed, aggressive attacker, how would the outcome be different if the first thing she reached for was her lawfully concealed firearm, rather than her cell phone? I have always believed that coincidence …

was it good for you, too?

Is anyone really surprised by this?

A crumbling economy, more than 2 million constituents who have lost their jobs this year, and congressional demands of CEOs to work for free did not convince lawmakers to freeze their own pay.

Instead, they will get a $4,700 pay increase, amounting to

In the interests of fairness, the Tennessee Department of Safety did, indeed, get around to responding this morning to my email:
