Armed Felons Disarmed?

I often wonder if those who would take away the rights of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms have a plan to disarm felons. They never seem to discuss that in anything approaching rationality, thinking, and preaching, that to make laws against all guns will automatically cause the felons to... Sign in to see full entry.

Maintaining Shooting Skills

Another thing to remember, if you are going to have a gun for home defense or a gun to carry with you, is that you need to practice as often as possible. Become familiar with your gun, the feel of it, its weight and how it reacts when you fire it. Go to the range at least once a month to shoot 50... Sign in to see full entry.

Shoot them dead?

Sounds terrible to advocate shooting another human, yet, what other alternatives are there to handling someone who is armed trying to steal from you, on the street or in your home?

Would our homeowners insurance pay for the repairs to our home? Sign in to see full entry.

Officer's Safety is Paramount

I will trade an officer's well-being for the lives of any 1,000+ felons. I would rather a felon die than an officer even be scratched in the line of duty. Sign in to see full entry.

Armed Citizens

In my opinion, the best defense against an armed felon is an armed citizen. Studies have indicated that armed homeowners are a burglers greatest fear. States enacting "Shall Issue" Concealed Permit laws have seen violent crimes drop significantly. And, unlike the opinions of the "Brady Bunch," such... Sign in to see full entry.

Message to Armed Robbers . . .

Another apparent non-producer hit the pavement, dead, yesterday (NOTE: This is from an opinion piece I wrote in December of 2000). And I rejoice. All the facts aren't in yet, but from the facts in the paper and on television this morning, it seems an armed robber tried holding up an ABC store in... Sign in to see full entry.
