Ten Years After Antifa Attack, a Reporter Seeks to Win Back His Second Amendment Rights [More]
That’ll teach him to keep a cowardly and sadistic commie mob from attacking him.

The Answer May Also Be ‘Yes’
Do Trans People Have “Stand Your Ground” Rights? Wyoming’s Answer May Be “No.” [More]
“May be” or “is”?
That’s what we have trials for.
Why do I have the feeling we’re not getting the whole story here?
Maybe because phrases like “people disproportionately targeted for harassment and violence” misdirect on who’s doing the abuse, something the gun prohibitionists don’t seem to want to point out.

Crunching the Numbers
Defensive Gun Use Statistics: Self-Defense Cases (2026) [More]
Using surveys, it’s impossible to come up with an accurate number, which explains the disparity of 2.5 million to 65,000 DGUs, which is still a lot more than the number of homicides.
The important statistic to remember is that 100% of gun prohibitionists would rather the defenders had been killed than armed.
The Burden of Proof Loophole
Deliberately Uncaged Wild Animal Attacks
Memorial Drive shooting suspect went to prison over previous shootout with police, sources confirm [More]
Don’t worry. Those who decided he could be trusted outside of custodial care won’t suffer any personal repercussions.
Funny, how this report doesn’t mention the armed citizen who intervened. (Pro tip to the ones that do: “Marine” should be capitalized.)
I just don’t have time to watch this DA press conference, but am told:
The head of the Cambridge Police as well as the Colonel of the MSP did not acknowledge the role of the “civilian” in this, only the bravery of the responding officers, who mostly arrived after the shooting was done.

Ay, There’s the Rub
Homeowner shoots, kills man reportedly breaking into their home in Spring … That altercation proceeded outside into the streets …
… The homeowner decided he followed the suspect out … It will be up to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office to determine whether any charges will be filed. [Watch]
It’s rarely in one’s legal interests to continue a confrontation outside. If it’s found there’s history, that will complicate things further.

Yes, you can carry a gun in Yellowstone.
The bad news is:
But it’s illegal to fire it – even in self defense.
Just think, the people who enacted and enforce that edict all swore an oath to the Constitution. I wonder what the Framers would have thought about that.

Ye Shall Know Them By Their Fruits
Across California, new legislation and shifting policies are raising serious questions about how churches can protect their congregations—often without clear guidance for pastors and church leaders. [More]
It looks like these folks aim to fix that.
If your pastor is too deluded, gutless, and/or corrupted to tell you the truth, you’re in the wrong church:
He that suffers his life to be taken from him by one who has no authority for that purpose, when he might preserve it by defense, incurs the Guilt of self murder since God has enjoined him to seek the continuance of his life, and Nature itself teaches every creature to defend [it]self.

Nous sommes les Seuls à être Suffisamment Armés
The unidentified man, who is a French national born in 1978, allegedly tried to attack an officer guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and was shot by another officer. [More]
Why is he unidentified, and why is it also important to point out he’s a “French national” without telling us his origins and what kind of terrorism he aligned with?
Good thing he attacked cops and not mere citizens, though.

Apparently the defender has a past that disqualifies him from being allowed to defend himself by those absolving themselves of custodial responsibilities. The state’s answer is clear and brief.
