I'm Really Liking This

We're talking resistance in comments over at a mainstream website. [More]

I'm biased, but really do think WoG and GRE somehow serve as forums for the best RKBA comments out there. I'm really grateful for them.

You guys making them know who you are.

What the GOP Needs, Dogg

"A hip-hop makeover." [More]

Just when I thought the Stupid Party couldn't get any more stupid.

We're the Only Ones Helpful Enough

A judge has declared a mistrial in the case of a Mississippi mayor charged with leading a sledgehammer attack on a duplex he suspected was a crack house...Melton...said he was only trying to help the city and the tenant. [More]
An "Only One" and a "Mayor Against Guns."

Vanderboegh and the Monsignor

Mike takes a break from finishing "Absolved" to chide a wayward defeatist.

Will Obama's Justice Department Fight for Guns in National Parks?

An analysis of this situation we need to look closely at comes from National Parks Examiner Randi Minetor, who notes:

"...Justice is requiring the plaintiffs to prove their case more effectively within the requirements of federal law..."

As for the Bush rule change?

"[I]t was done in violation of laws that require environmental analysis before this kind of rule change is done." [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column examines whether the National Parks rule is really the done deal some have represented it to be.

I expect there will be those who would rather we didn't talk about this, as much of it is coming from the Brady camp. I think it would be foolish to ignore the chatter, even bearing in mind there is much disinformation.

Part of our job is learning how to recognize that. And another part is hearing things we'd rather not.

Please pass the link around for discussion. The more awareness and input, the better off we'll be.

Howe has withdrawn great part of the Troops from Rhode Island in order to strengthen those of this State for I should think, (considering the Situation of our Army) some Offensive operation.
