The Washington Post Spews Islamic State Propaganda :: 05/19/2017

If so-called “mainstream” media aren’t permitting spurious comparisons of National Rifle Association members to the barbaric terror group Islamic State, they are actually quoting the terrorist organization’s propaganda rag, Rumiya. A terrorist jailed in Germany wrote the item recently cited by The Washington Post in its article titled “Islamic State magazine steers followers to U.S. gun shows for ‘easy’ access to weapons.” In its latest online issue, the terror group praises the ease of buying firearms in America and urges members to do so in furtherance of their murderous pursuits.

Acting Appropriately Is Key to Second Amendment Advocacy :: 05/17/2017

One of my main criticisms of many in the gun rights community is that sometimes they act like anti-gunners. Name-calling. Mockery. Screaming. Unprofessionalism. Violence. These are the weapons of the left. Our main arsenal should only consist of the Constitution, the writings of the Founding Fathers, logic, reason, and respect.

The Crazy Things Pacifists Tell Me :: 05/17/2017

I don’t bring it up with strangers.  That said, sometimes people find out I’m a gun owner.  The way they respond is remarkable.  I assume that they are sincere in what they say, but that assumption is strained from time to time.  Their comments are more of a confession about themselves than as an honest question about me.  I usually bite my tongue because of the social situation.  Then it occurred to me that other gun owners must be hearing similar comments.  I’ve kept my answers to myself, but now I’ll share them with you.

Pansy America's New Bill of 'Rights' :: 05/16/2017

Americans have become a wilting, withering mass of weak, needy crybabies who have departed far and away from the strength of back, intellect, and character of America's Founders, who created a system that none other has ever equaled.  Rather than follow along the path that made America a strong, economically thriving and prosperous nation, many Americans, especially Millennials, pursue petty and paltry pleasures, as would a sloth and a glutton, and claim their slightest whim to be a "right."
