Owning Guns Doesn’t Mean Intending Violence
(from uk.businessinsider.com)
There are those who are entirely against the use of guns because they
could cause violence in the wrong hands. On the other hand, there are people in favor of using
guns as a means to protect themselves
from criminals.
But there are also self-identified non-violent people who have guns. Why do they, if they are against violence in the first place? Here are four possible reasons:

It Is Time for America to Awaken
(from twitter.com)
It is far past time for many in our country to take a stand on those things that are important, such as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
There are many, many folks out there who seem to love to exercise their freedom of speech and freedom of religion, even though their religion may be “none”. It is still their belief and they have the right to exercise it just as you and I do–whatever their “religion” may be or not be.
It has long be...

Media, Medicine and Guns
As the newly Democrat-controlled House of Representatives begins its session, we begin to hear the constant cries about the terrible ‘assault weapon’. More inaccurate definitions of ‘assault weapons’ and cries of how many lives these guns have taken. The irony here is that the modern sporting rifle (MSR) is used to take very few lives.

Peak Felony
(from tvcriminaldefense.com
[Ed: Reprinted with permission from GATDaily, this is an apt followup to Dr. Latebloomer’s pice on patriotic civil disobedience to laws outlawing possession of common firearms and accessories.]
On Thursday [January 10], to the surprise of no one, Dianne Feinstein, the one trick pony of California politics, introduced her new Assault Weapons Ban. This, while two different versions of background check legislation float to and fro.

Civil Disobedience Against Gun Control
[Ed: We are reposting with permission Dr. Latebloomer's 10/31/18 piece from GATdaily because it highlights the failure of restrictive gun laws. New Jersey also outlawed "high capacity" magazines as of December 10 and, earlier, bump stocks. Exactly zero of each were turned in prior to those laws' effective dates. See her follow-up "Peak Felony" here.]
The word “Resist” seems to have become a liberal battle cry these days. But what most people don’t realize, and what the mainstream media a...
