I’m not a Constitutionalist, but this is a good Saturday funny: somewhere in Iowa, a guy who formerly had a concealed weapons permit and re-applied to get one again, was denied by the county Sheriff who didn’t like his reputation for such dastardly crimes as “protesting, passing out leaflets and writing letters to the editor” [...]

First, a couple of news items that are actually something to cheer about concerning our rights to defend our liberties: Arizona is allowing concealed carry without a permit, and the Colorado Court of Appeals ruled that the University of Colorado has no authority to bar students or visitors from lawfully carrying guns on campus. [...]

In Ashtabula County (Ohio), the Sheriff’s Department has been cut in half, and the jails are full with a waiting list for bed space. One man made sense.
Ashtabula County Common Pleas Judge Alfred Mackey was asked what residents should do to protect themselves and their families with the severe cutback in law enforcement.
“Arm themselves,” [...]

Here are some photos I came across today from my September 2009 trip to the Four Corners region. I was breaking in my new Taurus 1911. I had many jams with crappy Blazer ammo (only stuff I could find) that I’ll never use again.

You know the police everywhere are working to get guns off the street to “keep us all safe,” right? We don’t dare say that they steal property to turn around and sell it for cash that underwrites the growth of their police power. In November of 2009, the Detroit News worked up a pretty good [...]

Those amazingly simpleminded saps are jumping all over Starbucks with their childish campaign, “espresso shots, not gunshots.” Whereas many large chain stores are commencing gun bans in their places of business, Starbucks has not jumped on the bandwagon with the rest of the fools.
But Starbucks, the largest chain targeted, has refused to take the bait, [...]

The ATF seized a shipment of 30 Airsoft BB guns headed for a retail business because ….
Special Agent Kelvin Crenshaw said the toys can be easily retro-fitted into dangerous weapons.
“With minimal work it could be converted to a machine gun,” Crenshaw said.

And then there was the orange tip “problem.”
ATF said it also seized the toys [...]

After I posted this blog, “Steve Lee Likes Guns and Government Gun Control,” I heard from Steve. So did many other pro-gun bloggers who were critical of Steve. In this interview televised on Australian television, he clearly came off as a suck-up seeking fame and fortune while selling out to the idea of government gun [...]

The song by Australian Steve Lee, “I Like Guns,” has been making the rounds on the Internet.

Not so fast, dear libertarian friends and fellow fans of guns. Steve Lee is actually a proponent of government-defined gun control, as long as he can have his guns as “toys” to blow up cars. Here is an interview [...]

Here’s another reason to hate mainstream newspaper journalism and stick to alternative sources on the web, including blogs. The Detroit Free Press ran a hideous article stating that “fear” fueled the drive for gun permits in the state. Michigan had a banner year for CCW applications – double the numbers from the previous year. And [...]
