And what about that bill to allow permit holders to carry on campus?

My alma mater:

Safety officials at the University of Tennessee said police can’t always get to you in time, so they are asking students to learn how to protect themselves.

Gun Culture 1.0 v. Gun Culture 2.0

An interesting illustration. 2.0 is growing as more and more people realize only they can take care of themselves.

9mm v. 45ACP

Heh.

My new coffee table book

Heh. The reviews are the best part.

Can we put the adults in charge?

Harry Reid: Delusional or stupid?

Gun scare

Seems there was an armed, uniformed police officer at an Obama event. And this caused a gun scare.

Just give them what they want

But what if what they want is your child?

Bleg: Bug Out Bag

Need a BOB. Something decent sized and preferably a backpack. Something for the car and the house. What do you use?

Fastest growing sector of the economy

The Beltway beats out Silicon Valley for the top income spot.

Tip for the ladies

Anytime I take a woman shooting, I always tell them not to wear low-cut shirts or loose fitting shirts. My wife ignored that advice once to her detriment. Now, a Bristol police officer has been shot by his girlfriend after a hot piece of brass went down her shirt.

Reap, sew

In California, the .gov was all upset with people exercising their rights so they made it illegal to open carry an unloaded gun. Now, those freedom-loving protesters in what is the front line for gun rights are, you guessed it, going to start openly carrying long guns.

Fast and furious stuff

The end game: Holder is trying to say that the only reason they had to break the law was because the laws weren’t strong enough to deter others from breaking them.

Senate Unanimously Passes Amendment Banning Funds for Fast and Furious-Style Programs

The company you keep

Mayors Against Legal Governing (MALG) Spins Off From Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG).

They do have quite a list of criminals.

You might be a libertarian if . . .

Heh.

Abandoning the free ice cream

The new facebook changes have caused several people I know of to leave. Apparently, facebook tries to make that inconvenient.

Using their proposed policies against them

Heh.

HR 822

You’d think it stood a chance given the PSH from the anti-gun crowd.

Phone blogging

I’m still quite happy with my DroidX. But the new Droid Bionic looks pretty slick. And it gets bonus points because the Lapdock looks pretty ingenious.

And here’s the Droid Razr, the thinnest smartphone on the planet.

I did not know that

Tennessee does automobile emissions testing? I agree, it is a waste of time.

Quote of the day

if she had time to call 911 she had time to shoot back

No carrying

At a gun range. This, I have never understood.

Daniel has a review of a Ruger Redhawk Shoulder Rig from The Holster Site.

We’re winning

More likely, they’re just losing.

So, what caliber for . . . ?

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
