As 2018 draws to a close, a report at Vox.com citing data from the US Naval Postgraduate School says this year saw 94 incidents of school gun violence, but is the way such incidents are defined creating a false impression of widespread school shootings?

According to Vox, this project to track school gun violence uses a database that counts each and every instance a gun is brandished, is fired, or a bullet hits school property for any reason, regardless of the number of victims, time of day, or day of week. That would mean incidents that really have nothing to do with school operations, students or staff are included.

A bill that would tighten storage requirements for Oregons gun owners is headed to the Oregon State Legislature in 2019. Titled the Cindy Yuille and Steve Forsyth Act, this bill would require gun owners to safely store and lock a firearm when it is not in use, and when it is being transferred to another person; report a lost or stolen gun with 24 hours; supervise children under 18 at all times when they are handling firearms; and use locks and containers approved by the state attorney general. Failing to follow these rules would result in a fine.

I visited Heaven on Earth for waterfowlers and inshore fishing enthusiasts last week. If you are a duck and goose hunter and a striped bass fisherman, you owe it to yourself to visit southern Louisiana or Mississippi some late fall or early winter, once the cold chases the stripers out of our range. I visited this past week and even with a stiff breeze and shifting conditions that had the fish a little unsettled, they lived up to their billing at every turn.
