Notes from the Resistance
Over 1/3 of Gun Owners Have Used a Firearm in Self-Defense [More]
And not just against human animals…
You gotta wonder how many still vote Democrat.
Gun-grabbers would rather they’d all been killed than armed — preferably with a gun so that it could be exploited.

Prosecutors today cleared Payne, based on Florida’s Stand Your Ground law, saying the State would not be able to overcome her claim that she was in fear of great bodily harm. [More]
Jeez, listen to the family and you’d never know he wasn’t anything but a saintly victim “tragically taken from us as the result of a senseless act of violence.”
Don’t get in arguments over stupid stuff. Walk away if you can.
Ah, I think I see why CBS was supportive of the shoot this time:
… he allegedly hurled the N-word at her …

New Survey Estimates 180,000 Defensive Gun Uses Against Animals Each Year [More]
Gun prohibitionists, that is, Democrats, would rather see you and those you love and protect mauled to death and eaten than armed.
A knife-wielding woman stabbed two people in the heart of Times Square Monday afternoon before advancing on NYPD officers with two knives and being shot by police… [More]
See, the two mere citizen victims had their choices to do that taken away from them by “law.”
Homeless man suing for $10 million after breaking into business and being shot by owner [More]
To be fair, every time I see an intruder with bolt cutters, I figure he’s just trying to keep warm. And who wouldn’t believe the burglar’s version of what went down?
What the heck was the owner shooting? And, rather than finish the job he called for an ambulance to save the guy’s life? No good deed goes unpunished, especially with no shortage of ambulance-chasing shysters who know extortion and settling out of court lets them collect from the productive with minimal effort.

Alleged robber wearing ski mask shot and killed by delivery driver in Miami Gardens, police and witnesses say [More]
With actions like checking to see if neighbors had cameras that recorded the incident, it sounds like the defender’s detention was procedural. What’s unclear is how this will affect his livelihood, because it’s not like many people whose economic prospects make them choose to be delivery drivers have a lot of other options.
On the plus side, if he delivered for DoorDash, I can’t find any policy explicitly forbidding independent contractors from being lawfully armed. Maybe I shouldn’t have said anything, because it’d be just like the hysterical b_s at Moms Demand Action to start a harassment campaign.
How can you blame Deputy Lafond for covering up when we see the example set by Sheriff Labat?

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a petition for a writ of certiorari in Calce v. City of New York, a case challenging New York City’s ban on electronic arms. [More]
Democrats really don’t want you defending yourself.
Just give them what they want? What if what they want is you, and are you really going to trust someone threatening to kill you over peanuts to know when to pull back?

Australians who defend themselves against an armed invader inside their own homes can be charged with a crime. [More]
Funny, who the laws don’t stop there…
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.

2 teens injured in bear encounter near Seattle [More]
Curious… “real reporter” Shafiq Najib doesn’t been address the one question millions of us “loony Heritage Americans” are wondering about…
Maybe we should ask “Margaret“…
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.

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.
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.
