Castle Doctrine Making Its Way Across America.

The Castle Doctrine is now in Texas awaiting Governor Perry’s signature.
Critics opposed to the Castle Doctrine and who are urging Governor Perry to nix it fail to understand the concept. It’s not hard to grasp if you love people, it’s hard to follow if you disrespect people.
Editorials encourage Texas Governor Perry to veto [...]

Marshalik and Pekearo Died For Nothing, Part II: Officials Have No Say-so About Guns In This Country.

Every time a Police Officer is shot, we hear that the police are outgunned. Yet, there is usually a lot more to a story than that which every household should know.
Take the murder of two NYC Auxiliary Officers Marhalik and Pekearo whom I mentioned in Part I. How is it that these officers weren’t trained [...]

Officers Marshalik and Pekearo Died For Nothing.

Let me be frank: In encountering a wild shooter in New York’s Greenwich Village last week, reservist officers Eugene Marshalik and Nicholas Pekearo died needlessly.
I am informed by police who correspond with me that police are not really trained to handle crimes they witness off-duty. Some write me that it’s discouraged as their departmental policy. [...]

RFID Silencing Opposing Views.

In a report of SearchSecurity.com, one Chip Maker reportedly pressured away from debate and exhibition a demonstration of how the Flea – the microscopic RFID Chip you don’t want on you – can be cloned.
In the security business, cloning any identification whatsoever breaches security. It punches a hole in the boat so the very idea [...]

2008 Part II: Candidates, Since When Is Self-defense A Crime?

Since the concept of even-handedness, so-called conflict resolution, zero-tolerance policies in school and workplace, and assigning mutual blame in fighting.
Conflict and self-defense have been put in the wrong perspective for decades, and this leaves a dark void for the non-gun owner families who believe in law and order but, as a substantial difference with gunnies, [...]

2008: Pilot Program: Repeal All Gun Laws For Five Years.

Given the successes of those states issuing concealed carry permits to citizens, I suggest a nationwide pilot program: the repeal of all anti-gun laws – all 22,000 of them — for a period of five years. This includes a moratorium on all new gun laws for five years, and suspension of all court cases pending [...]

2008: Spineless Candidates Need Not Apply.

Among the qualifications for office for 2008 candidates is their being anatomically correct – they have to arrive with a backbone – and some of that impact and scope brings me to pundits and commentators. How candidates run for office can be the chest X-ray to confirm backbone before the election.
I like Bill O’Reilly, but oftentimes [...]

2008: Gun Control Candidates Need Not Apply.

For the American electorate, candidates who commit to the concealed carry bills and who see them signed into law will show a deeper respect for citizens and the law of the land than gun control obsessives.

Arm-twisting Now For Dependency: Real ID Card Persists Against Protest.

Many states are fighting the intrusive and unwelcome Real ID Card slated for 2008.
Like a customer who resists the high- pressure tactics of a salesman purely because he doesn’t want the product, states are trying their best to say No to the gonna-ram-it-down-yer-throat tactics when it comes to modifying driver’s licenses next year to join [...]

Concealed Carry Of Weapons Superior To Taking Weapons: S. 388: Part IV.

Grab a cup: this one’s a long one. The last in a series of four parts.
What exactly is law-abiding?
A lot of Americans may not want to admit this, but being law-abiding is a very private matter. For many of us, including myself, it is a matter of self respect, a community contribution, a solemnity that [...]
