    Seven year old shot 6 times, Saves Mom

    A horrific story out of today's Detroit News. I'm sure that the prayers and thoughts of THR are with the poor girl and her family. However, it is stories like this that remind us of two of the truisms of self-defense and gun rights. First, criminals don't care about gun laws. This sub-scum...

    MSU Shooting Sports Complex

    The Lansing-area already has two nice shooting clubs, and a few gun stores with nice indoor ranges. But I'm very happy to see the University take its shooting sports teams seriously, not to mention its law enforcment and ROTC students. But, the fact that is going to be open to the public is...

    Campus paper wants to interview me.

    I'm a student in the paralegal program at Lansing Community College, and have struck up a short correspondence with the News Editor and the Student Editor-in-Chief of the campus' "independent" student newspaper, the Lookout. You see, back after the Virginia Tech shooting I wrote a letter to...

    Question about cable locks

    I need to trasnport my handgun to the range tomorrow, and can't seem to find the pad locks I typically use to lock the case. (Well, I can find the lock but not the key. :uhoh: ) I'll be using the cablelock I have on had, but is it okay to leave the firearm "in battery" for any length of time...

    Judge pulls gun

    I'm shocked, not only by the good thinking by the judge, but by the amazing lack of bias in this media report. The Public Defender comes across as a bit of a bliss-ninny, but he's probably just trying to set up a mistrial. But, look at the reporting "drew his handgun," not "flashed his...

    Rifle on a Plane

    Well, here's a new idea for all of those threads about flying with your firearm(s), with at least one airline they're just carry on! :rolleyes: http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/dailynews/3997144a11.html As for the Sikh, its not racism bub. No one is allowed to carry a knife on a plane, not just...

    Meth lab weapons cache

    Okay, so a wee bit of "Everybody Panic!" news reporting, but still... "rocket and hand granades"!? Why do methheads have hand grenades! http://www.wpsdtv.com/news/local/story.aspx?content_id=27a64cc7-beab-4a37-acda-8b771a016a36

    Brady reacts to DC

    Original Text: http://bradycampaign.org/media/release.php?release=878 Wow, talk about the Ostrich Defense. This man has his head hiding somewhere, but I don't think its in the sand... "[S]eventy years of U.S. Supreme Court precedent..." that he claims they ignored? Well, they cite SCotUS...

    A Knife in Public... (UK)

    Police officer given Swiss Army knife as retirement gift from colleagues, who then arrest and charge him for "possessing a knife in public without good reason" when it's found in his luggage when he takes a vacation... This is the same land that once had a world spanning empire, created some...

    Bank Robbery Goes Bad

    Okay, I offically give up on Florida. First, the ballot thing... now, your criminals can't even figure out that if you want to rob a bank where the tellers need to open the door for you, then you shouldn't show up in a ski mask totting a gun first. I mean, really, watch some cable TV guys...

    Your Rights Posters

    Okay, for all of us MS Paint Wizards and Photoshop junkies, lets see if we can't give Oleg some competition! :D Some grainny, out of focus, poorly worded, and cheaply made competition... but, shoot what you've got, right? :p

    I currently work for a capital-area law firm here in Michigan, in addition to my filing and photocopying at the office, the main part of my job is running things back and forth. To other firms, to clients, and - above all - to court. Now, I don't yet have my CCW license, although I am...

    UK Cops want bigger guns!

    The British government has passed some of the most draconian anti-self defense laws in the world. This was done, of course, to protect its people agianst crime. But the Yorkshire police need to switch from submachine guns to assault rifles? :confused: See the original at Yorkshire Today.

    Quick Question: M14 mag is M4 mag pouch

    Everybody and their brother has a website that sells tactical gear, patrol gear, and what have you these days. I was looking a a rather nice patrol bandoleer at one such store and was thinking it might not be a bad supplement to a backpack worn B.O.B. However the pack is advertised as holding...

    Drive-By

    I'm cross posting this from a mothering message board my wife frequents. This poor woman is justifably freaked out, and I was looking for some strategies to minimize the risk. My suggestions were to make sure there was no direct line from window to bed, keep the kids out of the front rooms or on...

    3-yr old shoots Mom (Thank You, Fark.com)

    Umm... Rule Five, if you are going to store a loaded gun under a sofa cushion then you should know how to A) properly unload it B) have the safety ON C) not keep one in the chamber. I seriously doubt a 3-year old was able to turn off the safety and cycle the action. So the damn thing was in...

    First guns, then shirts, now... payphones?!?

    I kid you not, rather than fight crime or enforce existing laws, Boston is now going to ban "dangerous assault payphones." Even the most die-hard blame the inanimate object Brady Bunch has to see this as lame...

    US Coast Guard... Being all I can be.

    So I'm thinking of joining the US Coast Guard. No, really I am. I am 24, looking toward my 25th birthday in May as well as the birth of my first child... a daughter. :) I have some university coursework completed, and am probably halfway towards my degree in History. However, I no longewr...
