I’ve only just become aware of this report from June this year. It seems to have been ignored by the mainstream news media – probably because it had a happy ending, instead of turning into a tragedy. Duncanville police said no children were hurt when an armed man entered the facility where a summer camp… Continue reading A school shooting successfully stopped – but the mainstream media ignore it

“Lies, Damn Lies, And Police Interrogations”
That’s the title of a recent video by the Armed Attorneys, Richard Hayes and Emily Taylor. I think it’s particularly important viewing in the light of partisan District Attorneys and police administrators in many jurisdictions in the USA. I’ve written about that problem extensively in the past, particularly in these two articles: Self-defense under… Continue reading “Lies, Damn Lies, And Police Interrogations”
AAAAAHHH! My eyes! My eyes!
I hesitate to put this image on my blog. If you like shotguns, you might want to cover your eyes and skip to the text below the image. Ready? If you’re so inclined, click the image for a larger view. That’s the “Impala Plus GP28A00CU Plus Urban 12GA. 3″ 28″ CT-5 Color Synthetic Shotgun“. … Continue reading AAAAAHHH! My eyes! My eyes!
“Thinking with a gun in your hand”
That’s the title of a new video with John Hearne, just published by Lucky Gunner. I’ve known John for a long time; I was privileged to be the pastor at his wedding some years ago. He’s an outstanding instructor, nationally recognized for his expertise, and conveys his material in an easy-to-understand way that’s a… Continue reading “Thinking with a gun in your hand”
Saturday Snippet: Eerily prescient
In my comments about the raid on President Trump earlier this week, I said: I believe we have never been closer to the outbreak of Civil War 2.0 than we are right now. May God prevent it, if that’s still possible. I’ve seen nothing since writing those words to make me change my mind. … Continue reading Saturday Snippet: Eerily prescient
Making money out of gun buybacks
I had to laugh at this picture, found on MeWe yesterday from a post on Twitter. Clickit to biggit. Apparently the offer was $150 for any gun handed in. That would, in theory, have brought in over $9,000, but the police haggled. According to a commenter on the thread: “Hey so we talked with… Continue reading Making money out of gun buybacks
For musical firearms enthusiasts with a lot of money
It may be heretical of me to say so, but I’ve never particularly liked Elvis Presley’s songs. They just don’t appeal to me. Nevertheless, he’s probably among the top five iconic American singers of the past century, and looks set fair to remain at that pinnacle long after I’m dead. It seems he was… Continue reading For musical firearms enthusiasts with a lot of money
A defensive long gun on a budget and under legal restrictions
I had an interesting exchange with a man who read my three-part article on the personal defensive rifle, and wanted me to address his specific situation. He has the following complications to deal with. He’s on a very limited budget – definitely below $500, and cheaper if possible. His state and city of residence… Continue reading A defensive long gun on a budget and under legal restrictions
Two powerful thoughts on gun control
While our senile President blathers on about 9mm “blowing out your lung” (it won’t) and threatening more gun control measures, I found two observations over the long weekend that sum up the futility of the latter option. Click either image for a larger view. From Larry Lambert: And from the Latino Rifle Association: Both… Continue reading Two powerful thoughts on gun control
The Uvalde shooting: what we’re learning is deeply troubling
I posted my initial reaction yesterday to the shooting of 21 people, including 19 children, at Uvalde on Tuesday. Since then, a lot has emerged that’s deeply troubling, to say the least. The first point at issue is the conduct of local police in response to the incident. There’s video shot at the scene… Continue reading The Uvalde shooting: what we’re learning is deeply troubling
