Caleb looks at the good, the bad and the ZOMG. I did get a chuckle out of the bit on exploitative videos. Because, you know.

Over at Vuurwapen blog, a critique of the press release disguised as a gun review. This is a bit annoying but, apparently, it’s a successful blog model to reprint press releases and stock photos because enough people do it.

Robb on what makes it a review. More from Jay.

Here, I’ve done my share of reviews. I mean the real kind, not the stock photo and spec sheet. And you can tell that they’re real reviews. And I’ve also linked to the types of reviews Vurrwapen mentions. I do that if it’s a product that I think is interesting. Or if I’m making fun, like when I say Oh, look a slightly different XD or Look, another 1911.

5th circuit says:

In its majority opinion, a three-judge panel from the 5th Circuit said some regulation of firearms falls outside the reach of the Second Amendment, just as obscenity and defamation aren’t protected as free speech by the First Amendment.

The NSSF wants you to contact Fox and tell them that banning firearms ads is bad business.

TN had a proposed law addressing that. Looks like it’s catching on as Missouri has one in the works:

Legislation that would make it illegal for employers to discriminate against people because they own or use guns overwhelmingly passed the Missouri House before lawmakers left for spring break.

I know that gun activists are winning but some of these laws, like this one, have me wondering if it’s getting taken too far.

Doesn’t the NOW logo kind of look like an iron?

The DC police lie about the gun laws. Also, if you are transporting your gun to the range there, you’re OK. If you stop to get gas, eat or use the bathroom, then you are breaking the law.
