Unless there were witnesses, why report it to the standing army?

Homeowner’s Daughter Shoots Alleged Intruder Dead [More]
Based on their own propaganda, the grabbers would rather have seen her brutally slain than have a gun in the house. Preferably shot to death so they could add to their one-sided “statistics”…
I’m reminded of a line I used years ago that shows the difference between them and we whom they brand as paternalistic throwbacks:
What a rabbit you seem compared to the free and confident armed women whom secure and trusting men cherish and admire.
Good ones are out there. To find and then hold onto one, first be true to yourself.

Speaking of Laws Repugnant to the Constitution…
A Bronx bodega worker who allegedly shot an armed robber with a gun he “found” in the store’s bathroom is facing criminal charges — but advocates are calling him a hero. [More]
What kind of real fascists would bring up and pursue charges?
If I were on that jury I’d find him extra not-guilty just for creativity.

A food vendor with a Concealed-Carry License shot and killed a man who pulled a gun on him Friday night, Chicago police said. [More]
Snuffy, of course, would rather the vendor be killed than armed.
He’s lucky Garry McCarthy is no longer the supe…

Too bad he told on himself.
The neighbors know the “authorities” won’t protect them and this is ripe for being capitalized on.

Individual and Collective
The Second Amendment references a militia, “the security of a free State,” and two specific rights–the right to possess arms and the right to carry them–and all of this is bound together by a general, overarching right to self-defense. To put it simply, the Second Amendment is multi-faceted. [More]
True enough.
And ignoring core purpose, which so many do, is a grave mistake.

What Have We Learned?
The final night of a five-week citizens academy produced by the DEA St. Louis Division included a simulated “shoot – don’t shoot” scenario. “It takes literally a quarter of a second to get shot,” said Laura Bethany Strong, a St. Louis area resident after completing the simulation. [More]
And Laura doesn’t have a problem with someone who would do that being the only one with a choice?

By the Numbers
There are an average of 1,820,000 defensive gun uses per year compared to 1,100,000 reported crimes. Only 2.07 million civilians regularly carry a firearm for defense. Civilians are 85% more likely to use a firearm for defense than to be murdered by one. [More]
[Insert name of gungrabber here] would rather you be murdered than armed. Preferably by someone with a gun, to bolster their numbers.

‘Looters Meeting Shooters’ Could Spread Hurricane Milton’s Destruction
Florida’s “stand your ground” provisions won’t give them a pass from prosecution if there’s a question of legality, or if a Democrat DA decides there’s ginned up anger they can exploit. [More]
But when it’s all said and done, “I’d rather be judged by 12 than carried by six” applies.
