BHO’s speech
5 Jan 16 “I’ve come to realize what a good test one’s attitude towards guns is about whether someone’s mind is liberty-oriented. If one is okay with police having guns, or whoever is designated as having ‘authority,’ but panicked at the thought of their fellow man or themselves having guns, then that is someone who […]
National Readiness, Impossible without Personal Readiness!
3 Jan 16 “Who will not admit he is wrong, cannot repent of his mistake. Who cannot repent of his mistakes, cannot learn from them. Who cannot learn from their mistakes, are doomed to repeat them!” Anon “Given that some attacks have been stopped by gun-carrying civilians, Israeli Public Security Minister, Gilad Erdan, in October […]
Trends!
2 Jan 16 Trends! After talking with several large gun-retailers and ammunition manufacturers last week, I see pistol caliber trends continuing to favor the 9×19. At the SHOT Show, now only a week and a half away, I’ll confirm. The fastest-selling handguns right now are the: G19 XD/M 9mm, Compact S&W Shield, 9mm, Compact SIG […]
“No, you can’t have my civil rights. I’m using them right now!”
28 Dec 15 “The ‘looters’ credo’ has brought you to regard your proudest achievements as a hallmark of shame, your prosperity as guilt, your greatest men, the industrialists, as blackguards, and your magnificent factories as the product and property of muscular labor, the labor of whip-driven slaves, like the pyramids of Egypt. The rotter, who […]
Holsters!
23 Dec 15 “Style is time’s fool. Form is time’s student.” Stewart Brand After a relatively “soft” year for the gun/ammunition industry, we are now in the middle of a year-end spike in interest and demand. In parallel, CCW applications are currently way up in all states. Three reasons: (1) Recent Islamic terrorist attacks on […]
“Due Process,” an Endangered Species!
16 Dec 15 A little history: “Another significant development in the art of ‘verbal cleansing’ has been changing the names used to describe people who espouse government intervention in the economy and society, as most intellectuals tend to do. In the United Stares, such people changed their own designation more than once during the course […]
Latest on the “DTI Operator Series”
15 Dec 15 Our DTI Operator Series. First group of videos out and available! As a follow-up to my last: I’m happy to say that we’re now doing business with an openly gun-friendly credit card processor! This, after being lied to by other processors who purported to want our business, then, when they found out […]
Watch Where You Step!
14 Dec 15 “Prepared” is present tense. “Victim” is past tense. “Justice,” in theory, can be either, but most agree that no justice exists in past tense! Sharpe From a friend living in Baltimore: “A decade ago, Baltimore City PD had one of the best homicide units in the country, with an exceptionally high clearance-rate, […]
Who Fraudulently Preach “Tolerance”
13 Dec 15 Bigot? In last Monday’s issue of the NYDN, an opinion piece (masquerading as “news”) written by a professing liberal Democrat, tried to make the case that one of the hapless San Bernardino massacre murder victims was a “bigot” and thus deserves no sympathy! We know he was a “bigot,” because he was […]
Gallery of Charlatans
11 Dec 15 “The gallery of charlatans who currently run network TV news no longer see themselves as legitimate journalists who report news. They consider it their first (and only real) job to hold our attention just long enough so that we can be sold male-impotence pills, miracle-cleaners, and worthless insurance!” Taussig How quickly anti-gun […]
Europe’s “Future”
6 Dec 15 On Europe’s “future,” from a connected friend in the UK: “Europe stands naked in the face of the current ISIS onslaught. Your summary is precisely right. Like you, I fundamentally understand insurgency warfare and especially the nature of this brutal death-cult, and will not underestimate the cunning of these vicious criminals. I […]
Tet Again?
5 Dec 15 Islamic Tet? I arrived in Vietnam in the summer of 1968, just after the famous Tet Offensive had been mostly crushed by US forces. Militarily, Tet was a disaster for the Communists. Their losses were hideous. They didn’t care! The fact that they were supposedly mostly defeated, yet were still able to […]

What’s Going On?
1 Dec 15 “A fact never went into partnership with a ‘miracle.’ Truth scorns the assistance of wonders. A fact will fit every other fact in the universe… A lie will not fit anything except another lie.” Robert Green Ingersoll How do you do? The truth actually rears its ugly head! What has heretofore been […]
Paradise?
29 Nov 15 Gun-Free Paradise? “Is there no virtue among us? If there is not, we are without hope! No form of government, existing or theoretical, will keep us from harm. To think that any government, in any form, will insure liberty and happiness for an dishonorable population represents the height of self-deception. What virtue […]
Happy Ending?
27 Nov 15 No “Happy Ending!” Today, in Colorado Springs, CO, we experienced a hostage drama at a local Planned Parenthood Clinic. Not a lot is immediately known, but current information suggests there was a single suspect, armed with one longarm (at least). Several casualties, including police officers. At least one fatality. Suspect eventually surrendered […]

No Credibility!
22 Nov 15 Credibility Gap: City of Los Angeles Council Members recently passed an ordinance banning magazines that hold more than ten rounds. Of course, that number will soon be reduced to six! City residents were granted a “grace period” of sixty days within which to “turn them in,” or otherwise get rid of them. […]

Immigration Down Under
19 Nov 15 ‘Liberals fully expect a chocolate cake to emerge when they dump together vinegar and baking soda, and are astonished when it doesn’t happen!” Anon Illegal immigration in New Zealand and Australia, paraphrased from a US citizen, and friend, living there: “In New Zealand and Australia, illegal immigrants (including ‘visa overstays’) comprise one […]
