Shoot the guy with the gun

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

I was just reading Stan's entry over at the Free Constitution blog. I recommend you take the time to check it out. He quoted a section of the VA Tech report that got my attention so pulled up the actual report and found the paragraph in question. The Virginia Tech total gun ...

Phoning this blog in

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

I'm feeling lazy. Thus, I'll just point you to a blog entry I happened across. Too bad Kenn doesn't appear to blog much, I like what he has to say! Guns are not the problem with the increase of violence in Washington, DC, Philadelphia, Detroit and New York. The problem ...

Define: Petulant

Monday, August 27th, 2007

If you're wondering about the title, it's a Google search I just had to do. I'll admit, I had no idea what 'Petulant' meant, so I looked it up. Why am I looking this up? Because of Laura Washington.  Click her name and read her drivel. So I have to wonder, ...

More wild west speculation

Monday, August 27th, 2007

Oh look, I found more fearmongering! They love using that phrase "wild west" don't they? Here's hoping the campuses remain weapon-free. The tragedy at Virginia Tech was an awful demonstration of what can happen when one deranged student picks up a weapon. The potential for another such tragedy doesn't need ...

Drug lords and Lugers

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

First, let's point at what I'm referring to: This blog. I did love the use of "crack kingpin", "dangerous drug lords", and "Lugers". Honorable mention goes to quoting gun names used by rapper 50 Cent. If I were an anti-gunner, I'd use rappers as my source of gun info. Come to ...

Behind the times

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

As a relative newcomer to the world of reading (and writing) gun blogs, I have not read The Other Side of Kim as of yet. Today I came across an excellent entry he wrote back in 2002 and I wish to share it with you in case you're in the ...

Guns vs Milk

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

I read a quote today that claimed a person could purchase a gun quicker than they could buy a gallon of milk at a grocery store. I chuckled when I read this. Why? Because I just went through the joy of purchasing a handgun in the state of Michigan. Let's ...

The world view of an anti

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

Today I wandered back into a blog of a certain anti-gun person who is incredibly confused. After reading his blog entries, I was filled with a million things to say. Oddly enough, he has comments turned off (afraid of being retort perhaps?) so I am forced to respond here. I ...

Fearmongering

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

Gun control advocates want you to be afraid. They make wild claims with no proof and have no qualm with lying to get the general public on their side.  What's that? You want an example? Of course! As I made my daily rounds through my gun blog bookmarks, I happened upon ...

Take away the guns

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

... and the criminals will use the next best thing. From the Times Online in the UK comes this article. Attacks in which a knife was used in a successful mugging have soared, from 25,500 in 2005 to 64,000 in the year to April 2007. The figures mean that each day ...
