Lessons from a Fatal Shootout in a Crowded McDonald’s « Isegoria. Reposted from another blog known as Isegoria. It’s an officer’s account of an off-duty shooting but, there are lessons to be applied both for CHL holders and officers alike if caught in an armed robbery of a commercial/retail establishment.

Soldier Gets Guns Back from Washington, D.C. – Guns & Ammo.
Yet another reason NOT to visit D.C. It is a beacon of irony. To think, the seat of freedom and democracy in the world in fact rests in the most oppressive, least free city in all the United States. We salute Lt. Augustine Kim for standing up to the District’s theft of his property.

Gander Mountain’s Opposition to Gun Owners | Shall Not Be Questioned. from the pagunblog.com, aka the “Shall Not Be Questioned” blog. This is well worth reading, folks. Gander Mountain apparently is NOT a friend to gun-owners, they just want your money!

Clerk killed in crossfire between robbers, customer – Houston Chronicle.
Still looking for details on this incident and can’t comment yet on this CHL holder’s specific actions without said details. We always recommend beating feet before committing to a gunfight. The worst case scenario here is that the CHL holder’s rounds are found to be the cause of the clerk’s death. If that is the case, the CHL holder is both criminally and civilly liable.
Yet another dog and pony show, I mean, gun buyback program to waste tax dollars in an already bankrupt state. LA’s mayor is celebrating the fact his administration spent at least $160,000 buying 1600, mostly junk, firearms from local residents. Let me assure you, there wasn’t a single gang-banger in the bunch! As is always the case with these programs, all it serves to do is convince sheep that their elected shepherd is doing something to keep the wolves at bay. Meanwhile, us non-grasseaters are told we need to be more like the sheep and trust the shepherds who only care to fleece us or take us to slaughter for their own benefit.
One entertaining tidbit from this latest ripoff is that the LAPD is proudly displaying what looks like an AT4 launcher. There has never been a time in modern history that you could walk to your local Walmart, Academy, or any other store to buy one of these items, let alone the cartridges it fires. And the only common sources for such things on the street in this country are our own military allowing someone to walk off post with it or the BATFE giving away more than just guns to the Mexican cartels. No amount of new gun control laws or crack downs are going to save the public from our own government mishandling stuff like this.
