There  has been some argument in the comments over at Sebastian’s about the use of the term “Fudd.” As I stated in a previous post, I think using the term is counterproductive, at best. This does not mean, as some have suggested, that I give the hunters, or any other gun owners, who do not support our rights a pass. I just think ...

More police-state madness from our friends in the UK: Motorists could be automatically banned from the road after two speeding tickets under government reforms unveiled today. The tougher measures would apply to drivers who break the speed limit by a significant margin. Those who twice break the speed limit by a large margin – 20mph or more – c...

I’m going to make a prediction, because I think a picture might be shaping up here.  Given who Obama has nominated for his AG, and the things he said, I think we can expect gun shows, and in particular private sales, to be a prime target of the new administration.  Why? Gun shows are a locus of organization for the gun community.  We̵...

The John Birch Society released a 5 part series addressing civilian disarmament and how it is a step towards tyranny. This is part 1 of 5.

This is a variation of the old tried and true story… Toyota and GM decided to have a canoe race on the Mississippi River. Both teams trained and practiced long and hard to reach their peak performance before the race. But on the big day, the Japanese won by a mile.

This is pretty friggin funny.  The anti-freedom crowd can’t seem to get their messaging together.  Delaware recently passed a low allowing for handgun hunting.   Apparently Freedom States Alliance says handguns are way too powerful for hunting, while HSUS argues that they aren’t powerful enough.  Perhaps it might occur to some peop...

Dr. Helen has an excellent post on speaking out.  I have to admit that I’ve been guilty of not speaking up enough myself.  It’s not so much that I’m ashamed of my beliefs, but in polite environments, like work, for instance, you just kind of tend to try to get along, and a lot of people on the left these days take themselves way...

Oh Paul, you sad, sad panda. You didn’t win the election. Barack Obama ran so far away from the gun control issue that they created a fake pro-gun group for him so that he could pretend to be pro-gun and have exactly nothing to do with you and your buddies. At the same time, the Brady Bunch will be better off with Obama in office than McCain. ...
