Off-duty Atlanta police officer shot, killed while breaking into Douglas County home, deputies say [More]
So, he had mental health/narcotics issues and no one noticed, and they still unleashed him on the public?
On the plus side, they can now distance themselves by calling him a “former officer.”

“He knocked on the door, yelled, and announced himself, ‘Hey, I’m looking for somebody to help me remove this stuff. I’m willing to pay!’” Treadway said. [More]

THREE MENTAL KEYS TO WINNING A CONFRONTATION [More]
I saw “Ken Good” and remembered the name:
His curriculum vitae reads like a character’s from a Tom Clancy novel. Putting it bluntly, he can shoot, fight, free-fall parachute in, scuba dive out, blow things up, and otherwise deploy in jungle, mountain, marine, and urban environments.

We are in a constant state of learning and consider ourselves perpetual students.”

‘Should I shoot him?’: Video shows driver pull gun during tense Florida road rage incident [More]
Damn right you should have. The unpredictable raging moron had already proven his willingness to be a lethal threat and could have fired at any second.

A homeowner tipped off authorities Saturday morning on the whereabouts of an infant and the man who had taken the child [More]

It’s good that Sotomayor’s security was able to defend themselves and repel a predator. It’s inexcusable that she won’t admit she has been wrong about our right to do the same. [More]
It’s a big club and you ain’t in it.
For the crime of running a huge survey on defensive gun use in the U.S. that was not forced into the narrative structure of today’s gun-control activism, William English, an assistant professor at Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business, has been subpoenaed, attacked in The New York Times and by many other “mainstream” outlets and, basically, pilloried in order to, as he put it in The Wall Street Journal, “warn off other academics thinking of doing similar research, and to influence courts where states are losing on the merits.” [More]
