A Sign of the Times?
Saw this on the news and just had to post a few lines. If you have learned anything on this blog, it is that AWARENESS is 75% of staying safe. We are in bad shape as a society if friggin street signs (paid for with your tax dollars btw) have to remind us of…
Keeping Concealed Carry CONCEALED
[youtube=http://youtu.be/rUzyy2CBx4I] First off, there is no way to frame this in which the so called “vigilante” (aka MORON who tackled the guy) is in the right here. If you feel so strongly as to go and tackle a perfect stranger (without any provocation), you could have just as easily called 911 and done your “duty”…

Open Carry May Soon be a Reality in Texas!
Well it did not take our new Governor Greg Abbott long to act on one of his campaign promises. Open Carry of a Handgun (with aPermit) may be coming to Texas very soon. While it is currently legal to openly carry a long arm, our New Governor saw fit to have Texas POSSIBLY join…
21st Century Guerilla Terrorism
At NO other time in history has there been a more obvious and clarified threat to the civilian operator by terrorism than today. Now I am not going to waste your time and go into the political “Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda” of this. Obviously, the ball has more than been fumbled in this situation..it has been LOST…
