We have a new Probate judge in Cobb County, Georgia: Kelli Wolk. (For those not in Georgia, the Probate judge issues CCW licenses, called a Georgia Firearms License.) I'm aware of the lawsuits and complaints against the previous Probate judge, David Dodd, who retired. I have to say that...

Tonight on Conan O'Brien, Samuel L. Jackson, left-wing actor, let it be known that he owns a gun. And not only that, he considers being able to protect yourself to be responsible. :eek: He didn't get into it too much, possibly because he didn't know how to respond to the shock of the...

Original article at http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051015...il_dc&printer=1 Tough clash ahead in Brazil referendum to ban guns By Andrei Khalip Fri Oct 14, 8:25 PM ET Dire campaign ads warning that Brazilians could be made defenseless against any Nazi-like tyranny have not budged...

From the BBC at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4075411.stm (Since the BBC doesn't take down stories--at least, not yet--I'll only quote excerpts instead of the whole thing.) "Law on intruders to be reviewed" "Downing Street has agreed to clarify the law on intruders but has...

Just thought this was worth a mention. North Carolina Libertarian Party Gubernatorial candidate Barbara Howe says that going to the [shooting] range is a way to "show voters the candidates can shoot off something other than their mouths." http://www.wral.com/news/3861557/detail.html

http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-guns25oct25,1,5220222.story Methinks that this story is an example of "spin early, spin often." They're claiming success before finding out if the buyback actually reduces crime. :fire:

Ya gotta love it. From http://www.cbs46.com/Global/story.asp?S=2416288 According to tonight's TV news report, the wounded Mullins was dropped off at a convenience store by his friends as they fled.

There've been a noticable increase in home burglaries and home invasions in the Atlanta area recently. Tonight, the Atlanta NBC affiliate, WXIA "11Alive" ran a short report on home protection, with a local "security expert" giving advice. He specifically mentioned guns, and was emphatic that...

From the Al Jazeera Constitution (free registration required) The radio just gave the name of the burglar but I didn't catch it.

I did a search and didn't find this already posted by anyone...sorry if I missed it. From http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3862173.stm

If you watch Stargate SG-1 then you know who Colonel O'Neil is. In the show, he uses a variety of firearms--including MP5's and P90's--to great effect, and with apparent glee. (I won't even start talking about how much he loves C4....) However, the actor, Richard Dean Anderson, was once on...

I thought the Aussies had ended this sort of thing with their gun control laws....? http://dailytelegraph.news.com.au/story.jsp?sectionid=1260&storyid=1415064

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3761061.stm Thank goodness the murderer didn't have a gun! :rolleyes:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/staffordshire/3760075.stm Haven't found anything that says how many guns there were, but I think it's safe to say that the judges on the 5th Federal Circuit Court of Appeals are likely to have more than this guy did....! :D And for those who don't get...

OK, so the subject line is my take on it. It DID catch my attention as an interesting plot device on tonight's CSI. A rape victim wanted to buy a gun for protection, but before the victim-disarmament--er, waiting--period was up, she was abducted and killed. :cuss: Edited too ficks a...

...such as OpenOffice. eWeek has an article comparing Office 2003 vs. OpenOffice.Org, featuring the U.S. office of Fabrique Nationale. Just thought some folks might be interested in the goings-on at a gun maker.
