{Extreme left wing cartoonist Pat Bagley gives us the best argument ever for encouraging women specifically to carry a firearm. But without a doubt that is not his intent. His obvious intent is hand wringing sexism portraying women as perpetual victims, that you will need an air sick back while observing.}
Civil comments on that site are encouraged. |

This is the latest action his group has taken after several people were reportedly removed from the Gathering Place in September.
We asked attorney Kevin Adams to examine the letter Spencer sent out.
“It certainly appears to me that his argument is correct, that they do have a legal right to carry a gun, either a concealed weapons license or unconcealed on public property," said attorney Kevin Adams.
Adams, with 20 years in criminal law, says the City of Tulsa should take this letter seriously. |

A political arm of the National Rifle Association is spending $544,000 on broadcast time to attack Democratic gubernatorial candidate Drew Edmondson.
The ad campaign, sponsored by the NRA's Political Victory Fund, claims Edmondson "wants to prohibit law-abiding adults under the age of 21 from possessing firearms for self-defense. He also opposes legislation that would give law-abiding Oklahomans greater freedom in choosing how to defend themselves and their families."
The group says the NRA has given Edmondson a "D" rating. |

The fatal shooting of a man in Josephine County may have been a case of self defense, according to the Oregon State Police (OSP).
Troopers responded to a home in the 4000-block of Foothill Boulevard around 6:20 p.m. on Wednesday. When they arrived, OSP says that they found a dead man on the deck of the home.
Upon interviewing the elderly residents, OSP says that the husband claimed that he had shot the man in self defense. |

The National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) has launched an ad campaign to inform voters that Drew Edmondson supports an extreme gun-control agenda that would leave Oklahomans defenseless. The television ad, entitled Call to Serve, is airing on cable and broadcast stations.
"Drew Edmondson supports an extreme gun control agenda that puts Oklahomans at risk," said Chris W. Cox, NRA-PVF Chairman. |

The collateral damage most of these requirements will have on law-abiding citizens will be horrendous while having little effect on the behavior of criminals and persons who are already ineligible to possess firearms (i.e. ex-felons illegally possessing firearms after multiple convictions.)
Unincorporated Pierce County residents have sparse police presence and extremely inadequate response times. Their guns tend to be treated like fire extinguishers--- loaded,safely stored and easily accessible for emergent use, but never locked up. |

Rather, the right chose to embrace an inclusive label, one that every one of us can claim equally. If you want evidence that racism and sexism and all the rest are the peculiar obsession of the left, consider that the left makes its groups ever smaller, more numerous, and more exclusive, while the right clings — and is criticized for that — to the most inclusive yet meaningful label available to us all: American. |

Baseball fans love to see double plays happen – to the other team. Well, in 2018, Second Amendment supporters could inflict one in Minnesota, replacing two anti-gun United States Senators with much better alternatives.
Democrat gun-banner Amy Klobuchar is running for her third term in the Senate – having first been elected in 2006 where she replaced Mark Dayton. According to Project Vote Smart, she supported a new ban on certain semi-automatic firearms, voted for arbitrary limits on magazine capacity, opposed concealed-carry reciprocity, supported “universal background checks,” and opposed efforts to allow some teachers to carry guns to increase school security. |

Our Constitution gives each of us rights that the government cannot infringe on! Congressman Dan Newhouse has been a fierce protector of our Second Amendment rights in D.C., which is why he has been endorsed by the NRA. But once again we see our constitutional rights under attack, this time by initiative Initiative 1639. This initiative has no public safety value - it just threatens the rights of responsible gun owners. If one of our constitutional rights, like the right to bear arms, can be stripped so easily, the rest can be stripped just as easily. We must protect our constitutional rights! We must vote “no” on I-1639 and yes to re-elect Dan Newhouse. |

A Gorst man who shot and killed a 31-year-old man last month will not face charges, according to prosecutors, as it appeared he acted in self-defense.
Cody T. Brooks was shot Sept. 6 by Brian Eugene Ellison, 53, after Brooks approached him while carrying a knife, threatened him, made bizarre statements and grabbed him by the neck, according to reports. Brooks was found dead in the road. Investigators found the knife and two spent bullet casings nearby. |

The fatal shooting of Jordan Davis in 2012 made McBath a national figure during a time that the shooting deaths of unarmed African-Americans and gun control were hotly debated. In her grief, she became an activist speaking out against “stand your ground” self-defense laws and advocating for tighter gun laws.
That led to politics, most notably as a surrogate during Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign. Democrats in Georgia took note and recruited McBath, who lives in Marietta, to run for a seat in the General Assembly. |

Deborah Wallace and Cindy Chester live about 30 miles from each other in Maryland. They ride the same freeways, read the same billboards, dress for the same weather. To some extent they have even encountered the same trauma. But for all that, it’s not easy to locate their common ground.
Wallace teaches in a part of Baltimore where gun violence is so common that in the space of 15 months, seven of the students at her high school were shot dead. Atop a massage table during a sea cruise she had booked hoping to escape reality, “I just cried,” Wallace says. “The masseuse thought she hurt me.” The 63-year-old views guns as a plague that needs to be eradicated. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
