Restore the Constitution Rally Videos

Click here.

There's even one of Helmke ducking out and letting a brainless harridan do his debating for him.

Message to Neal Boortz

Go to hell, you self-serving fraud.

The only one I see playing into the hands of the left is the one siding with the satisfied Rapex customers.

There.

Somebody's gotta say it.

GRE Round Up for Apr. 21

There's some good stuff being turned out by the Gun Rights Examiners. I hope you're availing yourself of it, and importantly, sharing these links via emails, on blogs and forums, with your local newspaper editor, etc.

A common complaint is media bias and absence of representation for "our side."

These people work hard to change that and ask for nothing from those of us their labors serve other than to help spread the word. I hope no one thinks that's too much to ask.

Here are their latest offerings:

Steve D. Jones/Fort Smith:
Home invasion; cop or not?

Local emergency gun control

Liston Matthews/Knoxville:
Parkwest Hospital murder - suicide

John Longenecker/Los Angeles:
Safer Streets 2010: Smear answered by Senator Randy Brogdon.

Safer Streets 2010: Informed streets have to come first.

Dave Workman/Seattle:
Kurt Hofmann/St. Louis:
D.C. 'voting rights' bill dead (again), but gun rights shouldn't share that fate

Go. Read. And please share these links.

You're doing that, right?

Here's Another Shot...

...of this. [Read]

I really can't wait to see the videos--meeting and speaking to so many people meant I actually didn't hear most of the folks who spoke while I was there--and, of course, those who spoke after I left. So in a funny way, being in the thick of things had about the same effect for some of the presentations as being absent.

"I'll Find the Crime"

The cool thing about this trick is, if performed right, it works on everybody! [Read]

Everybody here has Grigg bookmarked, right?

A Perfect Crime?

Interesting and moving, but if Liberty dies, I suspect the cause will be from neglect, that is abdication, laziness, apathy and cowardice. [Read]

We're the Only Ones Deploying Our Sex Crimes "Unit" Enough

DNA evidence in an alleged sexual assault at a police squad building matches that of a sergeant who led a sex crimes unit in suburban Philadelphia, a district attorney said Tuesday. [More]
Quis custodiet ipsos "Only Ones"?

I understand though. Whenever I am mourning a loss, I always get drunk and try to rape people too. Doesn't everyone? Nothing I like better than leaving some weaker victim who trusted me traumatized and curled up in the closet, which is probably why I'm not as worthy as professionals like Sarge here.

Or something...

Idiot or Liar?

And yes, I own guns, and I know how to shoot them. Campus Carry is a BAD IDEA. [More]
Anybody see a third choice for this comment poster?

Fingering a Terrorist Threat

Student suspended after finger gun incident

..."That was considered a terroristic threat because the teacher feared for her life"... [More]
Oh fer cryin' out loud. I guess handling things like an adult is too much to expect.

Funny. Often times, the "Authorized Journalists" don't disclose the names of minors accused of things. In this case, because a unionized government worker is involved, because sacred AUTHORITAH has been challenged, well, that's a different set of rules. It's their name that gets protected.

Besides, the girl says she was practicing to be a Furious Mike "Only One." Hell, looks to me like she's a natural.

Still, I understand how the sight of someone doing this would make some feel threatened. For instance, the guy pictured here appears to be making a double-threat. But because of that different set of rules, we're expected to just take it.

How Long...

...would you survive? [Read and take poll]
I view this assessment as useful but incomplete, as it doesn't take into account will and willingness. In some cases, we won't know until we're put to the test just what we're capable of doing and just how much of our mental/emotional/moral conditioning we're capable of overcoming.

Would you rescue and take in children in need? Even if you'd only made provisions for your family?

Etc. I'm sure we could think up a thousand more scenarios that would require an on-the-spot moral/intellectual/survival decision and still end up astonished by the one that confronts us.

That's not to put down preparation in terms of hardware, training, supplies--just my observation that we must not neglect the "soft" aspect of things, which just may prove the hardest to prepare for.

Funniest Damn Thing I've Read in a While

The PERFECT ending to the story would be that Mike had plastered a "We Are Everywhere" on the bastard's back :o) [More]
Can you imagine...?

I'm still laughing here.

NRA Sidelined on Firearms Freedom Acts

Understand I can't claim to know, but that's my read on their thinking. And I don't claim to like it, but I do acknowledge it is a consideration that would affect their decision. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner looks at why the 800 Lb. gorilla prefers the bench to the line.

Also look at rising costs in Oregon and link up to today's Trigger Sports LIVE! for my after-rally report.
