Rough times coming.

I could say and so it begins but that wouldn't be correct. The battle for our Sencond Amendment rights never stopped. There was a lull at most. The gun control crowd have been getting their asses handed to them lately, but they all belong to the "never let a crisis got to waste" crowd. Trayvon Martin and Stand Your Ground are the "crisis" they wanted. They may see this as their last chance to turn the tide. They have money and the media. Tough. Our grassroots beats their astroturf. We're better at this than they are. We can guess what's to come in the next legislative sessions. Start calling you representatives now and let them know where you stand.

9-year-old suspended after he says he stood up to a bully

In a Colorado school a nine year old was the target of two bullies. They would knock him around. He would tell the teacher as he had been told to do, and #$%& all would happen. Finally, with the approval of his parents, he defended himself and got suspended. It's the school's pesky zero tolerance policy regarding violence. It doesn't acknowledge that violence can have a positive result like ending the attacks on a nine year old by grade school thugs. A school spokesperson said...

District 11 schools employ many anti-bullying teaching techniques … and none of these methods include violence or retaliation.”

None of them seem to be effective either any more than zero tolerance polices are.

On my wish list.

Smith & Wesson's M&P Shield

Want.

New York City's handgun CCW permit system is...

..."needs" based. The NYPD decides if you need a permit. Apparently, those with wealth and celebrity have needs that the rank and file do not. It's a Bloombergian paradise.

H/T to JT.

I want one.

That's bloody marvelous.

H/T to Borepatch.

It has been reported that...

...Bank of America no longer wishes to do business with gun companies. It follows then that they don't wish to do business with gun owners. I suggest we take our business elsewhere. Let's see how that effects their bottom line.

John has an update. It appears that Corporate has claimed they do not discriminate. So what are they going to do about VPs who either do not know policy or make their own?

Two hundred and thirty-seven years ago today...

...British Redcoats marched on Lexington and Concord and started a shooting war. We won it.

Are they f$%king kidding?

Is this the kind of shit we've got to look forward to the next six months? If so, a pox on both their houses.

A bit of history passing by.

The estranged wife and S1 and D3 are Cocoa Beach and saw this from the her Dad's yard. The picture is a cellphone picture of the viewfinder of her camera and therefore sucks. It's still neat. They were all excited. Mostly depresses me.
