Washington-DC —The latest political assault on gun rights seems to surround this rifle platform more than any. However they are planning to ban millions of other handguns, rifles and shotguns along the way.  Ignorance and stupidity is leading the gun banners and grabbers in the wrong direction.  The AR-15/M-16/M-4 is essentially the same short rifle or carbine.  It fires a miniscule .223caliber/5.56 MM cartridge.   The already banned military M-16/M-4 assault rifle versionis fully automatic is not part of this argument.  The military version was designed so that the user could pull the trigger once and fire two to three rounds.  Holding the trigger back would of courseallow a machinegun type burst of fire until the magazine of up to 30 rounds went empty. However the barrel would be quickly destroyed by heat with thiskind of fire.  This little rifle was onlydesigned to fire the short bursts doubling or tripling the likelihood the targe...

Washington, DC —Every state in the union has criminalized the sharing of sexually explicit material with children.   We protect our children from any exposure to the natural and wonderful gift of sex.  We express love and find joy when we explore this magic our creator has given us.   However sex is deemed just not safe for children. Somehow I find the deliberate concealment of sex from children nothing less than perverse.  Children are taught that sexual activity is shameful and somehow wrong.  I have long suspected that this shielding does so much more harm than good.  Sex is a natural part of life like eating and breathing.  We’ve managed to somehow turn sex into something dirty and creepy. There is nothing wrong with our naked bodies unless we consume too much fried chicken and Twinkies.  Perhaps if kids saw more nakedness and knew about sex early   they’d better understand the importance of good eating habits a...

Phoenix, AZ-Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery announced this morning that the Grand Jury returned a No Bill, refusing to Indict Scottsdale lawyer David Appleton, 60.  In November 2011, Appleton shot and killed rodeo cowboy, Paul “Tom” Pearson , 50 after a vehicle chase in Scottsdale.  Apparently Pearson did not like Appleton’s driving and began chasing him for miles on the highway.  Appleton sought refuge and concealment in a shopping strip mall but was soon located and attacked by Pearson. Pearson grabbed Appleton by the throat strangling him and the lawyer fired a single shot from a .38 revolver striking him in the heart and spine.  Pearson died from his wound despite EMT lifesaving efforts. As for Appleton he’s told me that not a day has gone by when he has not said a prayer for Pearson’s lovely widow, Vicky and their three daughters.  The death of Pearson added to already hard financial times for the Pearson family.  Do to the ...

Berlin, Germany – On a soundstage here filming has begun on the WikiLeaks story.  It surrounds a reporter, Julian Assange who apparently hacked and captured tons of secret government communications. He soon released them to the world.   To no one’s surprise the governments involved have mislead the world of their agendas and conduct.   America has been running a secret government and gotten involved in dubious wars that our citizens know little about.  We learned from Assange and his cohorts that our politicians cannot be trusted.  For his revelations Assange should be a hero.  Letting the world know about the lies, distortions and reality should have brought about political revolt. Instead ignorant Americans continue follow their Judas Goat straight to Hell. My favorite actress, Carice van Houten is playing the spokeswoman for Assange and his group.  I know the film will be good and hopefully it will enlighten the world. I’...

Cyberspace —When anyone publishes material in any form where it’s expected to be viewed by others there is a responsibility that accompanies the offering. We must simply remember the so-called Golden Rule and there will never be a controversy.  However disagreement, revenge and hate have been in abundance on the free for all we call the Internet.  The laws of libel are for the most part simple.  Don’t publish lies about any living person or organization.  Only the living have standing to sue so only simple decency regulates what you publish about the departed souls in our world. Imagine if you suggested in a story that a major soft drink company sold a cola drink that contained poison.  Okay, one could argue that too much sugar was toxic and life threatening. Before it was over some major beverage manufacturer would own you even if sugar could be considered harmful. You can ask the question about whether someone is a crook in safety but callin...

Las Vegas, NV —As Obama and his minions want to further diminish liberty and freedom in the name of public safety you need to read much further. The possession and carrying of firearms is constitutionally protected activity.  Pure and simple this was guaranteed so Americans could use deadly force against government officials trying to disarm them.  Americans somehow accepted that their gun rights artificially converted into a coveted privilege for the rich and politically connected.  Just because it’s been that way for decades does not make it legal or constitutional. California is about to enter a state of siege.  The California Department of Corrections has been releasing felons at an alarming rate to comply with a court order.  They don’t have nearly enough parole agents to keep up with the young, dangerous and unemployable thugs being let loose.  Parole agents have warned me to tell the public what the politicians are trying to hide....

Las Vegas, NV —I spent some quality time with an incredible assortment of firearms of every type here at the SHOT Show .  When that ended the very upscale  Las Vegas Antique Arms Show at the Rivera Convention Center was my next stop.  Between the two shows there were nearly 100,000 people.  There were no assaults, accidents or even disturbances of any kind.  Crime takes a holiday in Las Vegas with all these gun-packing visitors. The mood at the shows was angry and even confrontational about suggestions that liberty and freedom be compromised away or surrendered for the bogus promise of public safety.  Today's Americans are more educated than ever about gun rights and why we have them in the first place.  The Second Amendment guarantees our right to keep and carry firearms.  It exists to fundamentally allow Americans to use force and violence against anyone trying to violate those Constitutional freedoms!  That simply means politic...

Las Vegas, NV-As more than 60,000 people descend on the SHOT Show in Sin City they collections are home alone. Because of Obama are firearms have tripled in value overnight. At to criminals they may seem priceless. Please put extra security on your firearms so they don't fall into the wrong hands. I would ask that you spread this message far and wide and warn your friends especially in states with the nastiest gun bans.

Las Vegas, NV — The Shooting and Hunting Outdoor Trade Show is about to begin in Sin City!  The public is not invited but even so as many as 60,000 visitors involved in the trade will attend.  This is the largest gun show in the world. Lots of celebrities will be on hand along with every significant firearm and accessory manufacturer in the world.  In the 35-year history of this show there’s never been a shooting, accidental or otherwise despite the presence of thousands of people and even more firearms. This year Second Amendment infringing political efforts will be heavily on the minds of the exhibitors and visitors alike.  Here on display will be the latest and greatest new products of every type for the Great Outdoors.  Additionally there is a special law enforcement/military section with every imaginable public safety related items.  Las Vegas has those great show and buffets.   Needless to say I will be attending th...

Blogger Paul Huebl with a S&W model 29 .44 Magnum revolver.   Washington, DC —Creating lists of law-abiding Americans with firearms has no benefits whatsoever.  Guns are almost never left at crime scenes and when they are learning the legal owners identity is usually meaningless because the offender is either captured or killed. There are two U.S. Supreme Court cases that make it clear that persons precluded by law from owning firearms cannot be forced to register their guns or face prosecution when they don’t.  Registration violates their rights against self-incrimination. We all saw the recent fallout from the names and personal information being published by a Leftist newspaper trying to somehow shame gun owners.  That list also told every thug, rapist and killer where to find unarmed and helpless victims.  Proponents of registration schemes claim that gun registration is harmless and no different than drivers and automobile licensing....

Yep, I'm a gun owner standing here with a loaded S&W .44 Magnum.  I must ask," Do ya feel lucky punk?  Well do ya?"  Phoenix, AZ —I personally wrote no less that 14 bills to legalize the carrying of concealed weapons in Arizona.  There was one bill for every year until it finally passed.   I relentlessly lobbied the Arizona Legislature along with Landis Aden from the Arizona State Rifle Association .  It was a long and challenging battle.  I can remember the stiff opposition from even the Republican leadership.  The late Senator Jackie Steiner emotionally warned me, “Your bill will bring shootouts to every traffic accident in Arizona!”  I quietly informed the good Senator that Arizona law already allowed people to keep loaded guns in their automobile glove compartments.  Steiner vowed to do something about that but thankfully never followed up on the threat.  I did not write the final bill that passed but it ...

The United States is always viewed as more violent and singled out by gun related homicides.   To begin I don’t really think it matters how someone is murdered. Is it any better to be strangled, stabbed, poisoned or beaten to death? Europe for all but the last 35 years has not had racially or culturally diverse populations.  Everywhere there is diversity culture clash in Europe violence has increased.  The Nanny state of the UK has alarming crime and violence with their immigrant population.  The UK is in such a state of panic they are regulating the manufacture of kitchen knives eliminating sharp points!  The UK's perception of weapons laws are somewhat bizarre. With each new weapon law they make crime escalates.  The vast regions of the United States have few or no homicides.  They mirror any European nation in crime statistics.  Oddly enough these are areas that are controlled by Republican or Conservative politicians.  Th...

Sherman Oaks, CA—In this nice part of Los Angeles my best California pal, Andy Murcia is enjoying retirement with his wife, actress, singer and dancer Ann Jillian .  Andy had to retire early from the Chicago Police Department so he could be with his incredible new wife and manage her career.  Andy worked in VCD and was last assigned as a sergeant in #023 .  Andy was always a cop’s cop.  They had to move to L.A. where Ann's career and the money were waiting.  Yesterday was Andy’s birthday and we celebrated at a family gathering last night.  There was a somewhat somber mood of sorts because Andy is about to enter a hospital and undergo open-heart surgery to replace a defective valve.  These days this is a common procedure with a great prognosis and years should be added to his life.   Still the thoughts about such invasive surgery are unsettling and even disturbing.  My thoughts will be with Andy, Ann and their terrific so...

Chicago, IL —All of the elected officials and bureaucrats in the Windy City are Democrats and most are from the far Left fringe.  There are no Republicans or Conservatives to blame.  Here they have enacted the most unreasonable gun bans in the entire nation. Corruption in Chicago is beyond legendary.  A significant percentage of the 50 member City Council are either street gang members themselves or are closely related to them.  When it comes to combating crime these politicians will try anything at all as long as it cant and does not work.  The policy of the city government is to insure that the city’s criminals are the only ones armed.  Over the years they even banned the cops from using police style shotguns.  They have allowed the police department manpower to dip into dangerous levels.  As they cite budgetary problems they handed millions in cash grants to known criminal groups such as Cease Fire .  Who could forget when t...

Beverly Hills, CA — Whitney Houston’s scalded and battered remains were found in a bathtub at the local Hilton Hotel.  Despite the first "accidental death" findings by authorities serious and undeniable signs of foul play linger on.  Nobody’s buying the accident story, especially not me or the working cops. Despite the publicized findings, the investigation was not going away anytime soon.  In fact the investigation is heating up.  Those responsible for the singer’s death know only too well about the loose ends that will soon snare them.   It turns out that Ms. Houston had a guardian angel that is now demanding justice. As in every case involving multiple offenders the first one that breaks ranks and runs to the prosecutor gets a free ride even in death penalty qualified cases!  There will be no jail, no criminal record and even an all expense paid relocation for one lucky conspirator.  Despite physical and photographic evidence...

Los Angeles, CA —Okay, I’m a fan of the musical play having seen it three times and because I own the original London and Broadway cast CDs.  I’m jaded and skeptical that a filmmaker could do justice this this project. I saw it yesterday and I have one word to describe the singing, acting, costumes, set, direction and cinematography.  Wow is that word! Victor Hugo wrote about the plight of his rich characters during the period of an insurrection preceding the French Revolution.   The French Government back then was oppressive, out-of-control and conditions were harsh.   Hugo’s novel became so popular during our own Civil War   an incredible amount of Confederate troops carried copies of the best seller in their saddlebags and the the Union troops called them Lee’s Miserables. The storyline is about so many heartbreaking events with conflicts everywhere.  Cameron Macintosh and Alain Boublil along with their talented asso...

David Gregory in the act of flaunting DC's gun laws! Washington, DC —The nations’ capitol city has some of the toughest gun laws in America.  The laws are strict, punitive and the police have a zero tolerance policy for violators.  On NBC’s, Meet The Press, moderator David Gregory had his own gunfight with the Executive Vice President of the National Rifle Association, Wayne LaPierre .   Gregory’s shrill voice battled, advocated and demanded that the NRA back a new ban on what he calls, “Assault Weapons”.  To demonstrate his position against the Second Amendment’s evil gun rights Gregory imported a banned 30 round ammunition magazine for an AR-15 or M-4 carbine into the District of Columbia.  Possession of the magazine even without a gun or ammunition is a serious crime there. The problem is that violation would land any ordinary citizen a year behind bars along with a lifetime criminal record.  There are no special legal exemptio...

The shocking actions of a young madman at the Sandy Hook School has brought out the worst political slugfest I’ve seen in my life.  Lost in the tragedy are the grieving families and their needs at what must be their darkest hour. The argument about Gun Free Zones and the failure of even the toughest gun control laws to curb violence have created even more division in America if that was possible.  Then of course there’s the Fiscal Cliff and what half of us call wasteful and reckless government spending.  The tax vs. government extortion argument is out-of-control. Our emotions are raw and American’s speech has gone beyond toxic.  We must debate these items and come to some kind of a solution respectful of one another’s rights. It is the Holiday Season where Christians, Jews and most others celebrate our families, friends and people we work with.  I know I’m not alone to have gone over the top with my own strongly Libertarian opinions. Facebook...

Washington, DC —The Second Amendment to our Constitution reads as follows: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Now CNN claims their poll shows 52% of Americans favor “gun control”, whatever that means.    Many ignorant Americans and our politicians think that asimple majority can ban guns.  That’sjust not so since the right to possess and carry guns is spelled out in our Constitution.  Amending the Constitution and Bill of Rights was not intended to be easy.  Our politicians take shortcuts around the amendment processevery day to restrict our rights with the promise of more security.  Likewise our courts have been doing a poor job of protecting our rights by creating various exceptions to our rights often just because they think they can.  Of course the politicians appoint the judges and the jurists too often return ...

Los Angeles, CA —Gun rights haters are dancing in the bloodof the children murdered by that well known mentally ill Sandy Hook  killer.  When he could not buy a gun froma sporting goods store he murdered his own mother and robbed her of herguns.  We know the rest. Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announced Monday thatthe city’s annual gun “buyback” event has been moved up following the SandyHook murders.   They moved it up bymonths to December 26, 2012 Bring your rusty and unserviceable crap firearms from 9 a.m.to 4 p.m. on Dec. 26 at two locations: Los Angeles Sports Arena, Parking Lot 6,at 3939 South Figueroa Street and Van Nuys Masonic Temple at 14750 Sherman Way.  This a no questions asked event so they can’tmake you prove you did not come in from Arizona and Nevada! They will pay you $100.00 for any handgun, rifle or shotgun.  If they deem it an “assault weapon” you get$200.00.   They will pay you with giftcards instead of cash so...
