Defending yourself against a spree killer like the one in Aurora, Colorado

by Jeff Thomas Before I share some thoughts on how to survive a spree killer situation such as the one in Aurora, Colo., last week, I think it's important to talk about one piece of information I'm hearing likely is true: The Century 16 movie theater where 12 were killed and 59 wounded by a heavily armed man in a "no-gun" zone. Obviously the "no-guns" sign did not stop the murderer. And just as...

Yet another mass murder in "gun free" zone, but media fails to take note

by Chad D. Baus There is still much to be learned about the events that unfolded in that Aurora, CO Cinemark movie theatre early Friday morning, July 20, but as the media looks for answers, they are once again either missing or ignoring something that is consistent time and again with these multiple victim public shootings - they almost always happen in places where guns are banned.

Dept. of Defense again attempts to trample on Second Amendment rights of returning U.S. military troops

BATFE Modifies Shotgun Import Ban Study, Still Gets It Wrong

In January 2011, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives released its "Study on the Importability of Certain Shotguns."

Tough love for the outdoor community: "You people need to figure out who your enemies are and you better do it right quick."

by Rich Grassi Editor, The Tactical Wire Without descending into the current political morass of charge/counter-charge, extremist vs. extremist, agenda and charisma driven politics, I think it's time for a block of voters to coalesce - the people of the outdoors. Yes, it sounds like interest group politics. Extremist whack-job pseudojournalists who exist only in the NYC-DC Bubble and on our TV...

Fast and Furious will prove worse than Watergate

by Tim Inwood A few days ago Obama spokesman Jay Carney tried to tie Bush era operations like Wide Receiver with Operation Fast and Furious. If you watch something other than MSNBC you would know there is little in common between the Bush era operations and what Obama/Holder did. The fact is, in the other cases they were run like any other classic police show set up you have ever seen. Whether it...

by Ann Coulter HumanEvents.com Most Americans don't care about whether Attorney General Eric Holder is hiding Fast and Furious documents because they don't understand the story.
