The Folly of Carrying Exposed Weapons

Los Angeles, CA —I hear many questions about carrying exposed weapons. The inquiries are always from the few states that ban carry generally. Some think exposed carry is a way to self defense. Exposed carry is nearly always a bad idea. Before protective vests and better holsters over 50% of cops killed, were murdered with their own guns! Lesser trained civilians won’t have it any better. Carrying exposed firearms makes people targets. You may become target of strong armed robbers looking to arm themselves with your gun.. You will become an object of ridicule and scorn from drunks and others that see you armed. Frankly today, the sight of a civilian carrying a gun provokes some unreasonable folks into a breach of the peace. Last but not least is exposed carry generates phony reports to the police of aggravated assault. If someone sees your gun and accuses you of pointing it at them police will respond and investigate. When they have a witness/victim and you have the gun, your chances of...

Berlin, A Tale of Two Cities

Berlin, Germany —This is for all those social engineers out there that think Socialism has a better way. Some thinkers that believe that Socialism is more generous to the less fortunate and the old American capitalist system is somehow less humane. Berlin became a grand test tube for the experiment in 1961 when the Berlin Wall went up. The wall stayed up until Communism fell in 1989. There were two societies with the exact same genetic DNA living side by side separated only by bricks, mortar, barbed wire mines and guns. In those years West Berlin inhabitants prospered, their people had a great life. The welfare rolls were slim only containing the dependant children, disabled and elderly. The West German model made few Welfare Zombies. East Berlin on the other hand had a handout society for the idle, lazy and uninspired. Poverty and a mundane life of sacrifice and denial came with the handout. Some here had cars. Not the flashy and reliable Mercedes and BMWs of the West, but stinky litt...

Homeland Security Needs You!—To Snitch.

Right: The official Gestapo Badge of the Thrird Reich. Washington, DC —For those that don’t understand how the Gestapo worked inside the Third Reich you can simply watch the Homeland Security propaganda campaign that’s underway in America. When the Nazis were in power in Germany, Heinrich Himmler ran the SS and the Gestapo or secret police. There were never enough Gestapo agents to investigate German resistance but that was never a problem. The Nazis made all the little busybodies of the land feel important by making them defacto Gestapo agents. People that had no life of their own were recruited to spy on their neighbors and send reports of their suspicious or subversive activities into the local Gestapo offices. Clerks would then take the reports and file them into dossiers on each citizen. Serious allegations like spreading rumors against the Reich, making criticism of Nazi officials were immediately turned over to Gestapo agents who rounded up the accused. Once in the Peoples Cou...

Illinois, a Suicide by Taxation

Springfield, IL —When most people become dependent on government as a way of life they become professional welfare zombies. In Illinois the welfare zombies outnumber those self-reliant, productive and taxpaying people. Among these tax money addicted parasites are the specialized criminals that glamorize their lifestyles through political corruption. They are all choking the Land of Lincoln to death. The personal income tax here shot up 67% overnight with the signature on a bill by Governor Pat Quinn . People forget that Illinois was a state with no income tax until 1969. The greedy government officials became addicted to lavish spending on crap the taxpayers never needed or even wanted. Illinois has become a sanctuary for illegal aliens that have bankrupted the schools and medical providers. Their underground economy benefits their relatives in Mexico not the taxpayers of Illinois. The answer here is that business and taxpayers can avoid abject slavery by relocating. The damage w...

My Favorite Colt Revolver

Chicago, IL —When I became interested in guns my hands were too little to hold them. As I grew I became obsessed with the Colt Python because back then it was the biggest revolver in the Colt product line. The ventilated sight rib looked so impressive. I was about 17 years-old when I handled my first Python and owned a 4” blue version when I was 19. The cost back then was about $135.00 I love the nickel finish but it cost extra. Today in a world of ugly black semi autos this wheel gun is a real beauty.

The SHOT SHOW Returns To Las Vegas

Las Vegas, NV —With the latest tragedy in Tucson, the Leftists have joyfully found a crisis to exploit in their zeal to destroy our Second Amendment. They are shamefully campaigning on the shattered backs of a Republican Federal Judge and a moderate Democtic Congresswoman that had both gotten high marks from the NRA as freedom defenders. Of course slowly we are learning that the Sheriff’s Office of Pima County failed to get the shooter help he so desperately needed that could have prevented the massacre. That Sheriff has assigned blame to Conservative radio talk show hosts despite the fact that the shooter had no interest in them. The end result of the Gun Grab Talk Fest is yet another dramatic spike in firearms sales! As always more than 200 millions of Americans safely and lawfully enjoy and use firearms for self-defense. This will continue despite some shrill and ignorant voices of the emotionally unbalanced people that obsess over firearms and the rights of Americans to keep and b...

California Highway Patrolwoman Arrested For Murder

Los Angeles, CA —In was nearly two years ago when CHP officer Tomiekia Johnson , 31 did the unthinkable. She shot and killed her husband, Marcus Lavar Lemons. The killing occurred in their car as the dead man fought with the off-duty CHP officer. Even if the dead suspect was unarmed the issue of disparity of force would allow this young woman to use a firearm to ward off an attack. This was originally treated as a justifiable killing but apparently something led to this arrest nearly two full years later. My guess is the LSAD investigators obtained some a statement or statements that provided evidence that the killing was a crime. Johnson has been a CHP officer for four years now and has been placed on administrative leave. Right now, the Sheriff’s department is not talking. Johnson is currently being held in the Woman’s Detention Center in Lynnwood on a $2 million bail requirement after her arrest at noon yesterday by the LSAD LASD-Surveillance Apprehension Team This is the type of...

An Exotic and Unusual Antique Gentleman’s Weapon

London, UK —The father of 007 spy James Bond undoubtedly had one of these fine products he could use to deal with those pesky foreign agents that go bump in the night. This walking stick was made in Germany. This darling little toy would put America’s gun hating politicians into a major seizure if they saw it.

The Politics of Political Assassination are at a Fever Pitch in America

Washington, DC —The most divisive Presidential Administration since the Civil War is in full swing. Barack Obama with his un-vetted, un-elected and un-American group of radicals did everything possible to dismantle our form of government over the past two years. Their goal is to reform America into a Socialist system of government. The Obama Administration has a serious problem. They were all but neutered by the midterm election that took the steam and momentum away from their destructive efforts. They are now desperate to create a crisis that would somehow restore their lost power. Freedoms America has lived and prospered under for 230 years have been tampered with by Barack Obama and a group of radicals that infiltrated the halls of Congress. Suspended are our rights under the Fourth, Fifth, and Thirteenth Amendments . Under the radical axe right now are our rights under the First, Second and Fifth Amendments . Tampering with American liberty is Treason. Treason is a capital offen...

The Duty of A Defense Investigator assigned to Jared Loughner’s Case

Tucson, AZ —The job of defending 22-year-old Jared Loughne r will most certainly center around the issue of his competency or lack thereof. Is he competent to stand trial and assist in his defense? There are many serious red flags that say he may not be standing trial anytime soon. There seems to be little doubt that Loughner is the shooter and planned his activities. The defense has no viable direction to go other than seeking refuge under the insanity defense. That defense is more complicated and difficult than ever because lawmakers have done everything possible to foreclose this possibility. Tucson Lawyer Bob Hirsh did a masterful job of gaining freedom for a man who murdered his wife nearly 30 years ago. In 1982 Restaurateur Steven Steinberg murdered his wife in their Scottsdale home. The defense was that Steinberg’s Jewish wife was a shrew and incessantly nagged him, driving him insane until he stabbed her to death. Steinberg was acquitted and that sent angry shock-waves ac...

Gun Rights and The Giffords Shooting

Tucson, AZ —The gun rights haters are quickly moving in high gear to demonize American’s right to self-defense. They blame a certain Glock 9MM semi-automatic pistol and not the deranged Hitler and Marx aficionado, Jared Lochner who used it to inflict the carnage. Lochner was in obvious dire need of mental health treatment when he lied on the federal gun purchase form slightly more than a month earlier. Where was the concern about Lochner’s bizarre behavior over the last several years? Lochner was taken to the murder scene by a taxi cab, but had he been behind the wheel of a 3,000 car he could have inflicted as much death and destruction by driving into the crowd. Lochner could also have employed a single gallon of gasoline like what was used by another maniac that destroyed the Happyland Social Club in New York killing 100 people in the process. Gun rights haters are overly obsessed with firearms to the point of phobic mental Illinois. They are irrational perhaps because they ...

Too many American Politicians are Not Fit to Live

Tucson, AZ -- Gabrielle Giffords is a Democratic Congresswoman who fearlessly represented the voters that sent her to Congress. Unlike so many politicians she’d spend time with her constituents and hear their concerns, gripes and hopes. She was respected and even loved by both Democrats and Republicans. If all politicians in America were like her there’d be no nasty divide as we have seen in the last two years. Conservatives can agree to disagree with Giffords and do so with a genuine smile. A pathetic drug abusing loner with a long history of exhibition of mental illness symptoms falsified a Federal (#4473) gun purchase form got a gun and went on a killing rampage. The carnage is heartbreaking to say the least. America has been paying dearly for neglect of the mentally ill for a long time. Today we have many incredibly arrogant politicians that believe they have carte blanche authority to attack the Freedom and Liberty that made America great. They wantonly assault our free mar...
