THE FOUR RULES

1. ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED.

2. NEVER POINT YOUR MUZZLE AT SOMETHING YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO DESTROY.

3. KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET AND YOU ARE READY TO SHOOT.

4. KNOW YOUR TARGET AND WHAT'S BEYOND.

Winston Churchill said
"A GENTLEMAN, SELDOM, IF EVER, NEEDS A GUN.
BUT WHEN HE DOES, HE NEEDS IT VERY BADLY!"
Si Vis Paceum Para Bellum

Sam Adams, more than beer

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen”
Samuel Adams

Lincoln on power

"We must prevent these things being done, by either congresses or courts — The people — the people — are the rightful masters of both Congresses, and courts — not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow the men who pervert it —" Abraham Lincoln

That looks bad

Lots of reasons to vote against Obama. No wonder Jimmy Carter is smiling.

Brad's 1st fish

I took the boys fishing last night. Bradley, the youngest, caught his first fish. Today I had to take him to the store. Now he has his own pole and tackle box. They want to go again tonight, after it cools down a little.

Taking Down the Second Amendment: The Connection between Fast and Furious and the Trayvon Martin Case

Great article about Holder, the 2nd Amendment and the Martin/Zimmerman case.


When they nullified the 10th Amendment, I said nothing because I was not a libertarian.
When they nullified the 2nd Amendment, I said nothing because I was not a gun-owner.
When they nullified the 1st Amendment, there was no one left to speak for me.
Unfortunately, the 1st Amendment, and our other rights, depend ultimately on the existence of the 2nd Amendment.
Holder has an interesting take on this amendment. Asked on ABC News in 1999 if he understood it to mean that "citizens have a right to bear arms" and to "buy a firearm," Holder replied, "No court has ever said that the 2nd Amendment actually says that. I think if you look at it, it talks about bearing guns in a well regulated militia. And I don't think anywhere it talks about an individual" (Pavlich, 22). The Founders, in other words, were using "people" as in "People's Republic of China," not as a synonym for "the population."
