Thank God for Donald J. Trump. In addition to owning libs on the reg, our president has quite literally rescued Christmas from the brink of extinction. In the War of Liberal Aggression Against Christmas (WLAAC), the 2016 election was the Battle of Stalingrad—a valiant and improbable victory for patriotic forces over a ruthless and determined foe.

Another legal voice has been added to the growing chorus vowing not to actively enforce provisions of anti-rights Initiative 1639, which passed by slightly less than 60 percent last month, and this time around it’s not a sheriff or police chief, but the prosecuting attorney of Lewis County.
Prosecutor Jonathan Meyer, during a nearly eight-minute interview on KIRO Radio, told host Gee Scott, “The problem with the way 1639 is written is that it’s almost an unenforceable law.”

Gov. Pete Ricketts said Monday he would be open to the possibility of enacting a so-called "stand your ground" law that would broaden the legal right to self-defense in Nebraska. Stand-your-ground laws, supported by the National Rifle Association, generally establish the right of citizens to use force, including lethal force, to protect themselves from threats or perceived threats without making any effort to retreat from a confrontation.

Miley Cyrus is no stranger to statement pieces in her wardrobe, and on Monday (Dec. 10) she wore a simple shirt that sent a clear message: "protect kids, not guns." The 26-year-old singer rocked loose-fitting plaid pants and a matching jacket, complete with an oversize fuzzy hat. With an eye-catching outfit like this, the singer opted for a more simple shirt that tied everything together by sending an equally attention-grabbing message.

Like a lot of dads, Fred Guttenberg loved to take his kids camping. Also like a lot of dads, he geared up for his trips with a visit to Dick’s Sporting Goods. That’s where he bought the family tent, the air mattresses, and the camp-stove fuel. With his son, Jesse, and his daughter, Jaime, Guttenberg camped at parks all over the state of Florida. “Those are memories, with both of my kids, that I’ll always cherish,” Guttenberg says. “They’re all I’ve got now.”

When Elmer Keith, with big Bill Jordan at his side, went looking for Smith & Wesson’s decision-makers at an NRA convention in the early 1960s, he was a man with a mission. These two legendary handgunners had decided that the nation’s peace officers needed a more-effective handgun. They took the concept to Smith & Wesson, where it was cautiously received. A medium-caliber, medium-size version (something close to the K-frame) of the standard Hand Ejector revolver didn’t seem to be that much to ask.

“What kind of dog do you have?” It’s a simple enough question, really. While it is very difficult to survey every household in America, there are estimates from groups like the ASPCA that 44 percent of all American households have at least one dog, and there are 78 million dogs owned in this country. Basically, seven out of every 10 households have pets. And, unlike cats, dogs are often owned for hunting as well as for companionship.

Even professional shooters use visualization to help plan their progress through a course of fire in a match. The same process can be used to your benefit for armed self-defense. If I suggested to you we can use visualization and imagination to enhance our personal-defense abilities, your first thought might be that I’m going for New Age stuff in my advancing years. However, I’ll bet that there’s not a fan of Western-style movies out there who hasn’t imagined sitting astride a big sorrel gelding in some green mountain meadow with a big-ring Winchester in-hand, screaming “Fill your hand, you son-of-a…”

| QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
