Hillary's Supreme Court Would Wipe Out All Our Gains :: 08/07/2015
The mainstream media would never admit it, but the verdict is in on concealed carry. The nearly 25-year plummet in violent crime is in part the result of concealed carry, and the (always absurd) predictions of a “Wild West” mentality where permit holders go to guns over minor disagreements has never remotely materialized.

Controversy over officer in Chattanooga shooting: Should Pentagon change policy? :: 08/05/2015
A senior officer who used his personal firearm to shoot back at the Chattanooga attacker is unlikely to face criminal charges. But what some see as a disconnect between a Pentagon investigation and what many call heroism points to the rapid shift on the ground at military installations.

It's All About Response Time :: 08/05/2015
So there I was on the hillside, a term that over-dignifies the erosion gully I was working to turn into safe access to a fantastic beach. My mind was on finishing the ballast for the railroad tie I’d just put in to make what most people would call a step, but which I’d learned to refer to as a “human erosion mitigation device” because the volunteer project had to be about erosion in order to comply with certain regulations. But that’s a different story.
Question of the Day: Do Concealed Carry Permits Disarm the Poor? :: 08/05/2015
Among the People of the Gun, the necessity of a license to carry a concealed firearm is discussed with some frequency.
