Who Could Have Seen THAT Coming?

Accordingly, we hold that LCMs do not fit the constitutional definition of “arms” before even reaching whether they are “commonly used for self-defense.”However, LCMs also fall outside either protection of the right to bear arms because the provisions protect only those arms that are commonly used for selfdefense, and we have been presented with no credible and persuasive evidence or argument that LCMs are commonly used for such a purpose.

Gee, who would ever think those arguments could be a trap?

The Bear Necessities

A man from Bethlehem said he was caught in a tough situation that involved self defense and breaking the law…he fired a few warning shots before the bear finally took off into the woods. He said it wasn’t until the next day that he realized that he had unintentionally shot the bear. [More]

I’d feel better about this if he’d just admitted that yeah, he shot the damn bear. What the hell else was he supposed to do?

‘Any’

“You, your occupants or guests, or the guests of any occupants, may not engage in the following activities … discharging a firearm in the apartment community… Any violation of this paragraph shall be a material breach of this Lease and will entitle us to exercise all rights and remedies under the lease and law.” [More]

Eddie said it best…

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

And in the Not All Landlords are Bad, category, remember this young fool?

He’s being evicted.

Hold Onto Your Hat

A Washington State University (WSU) student says he was assaulted outside a popular campus bar in February by an instructor and another university employee for wearing a hat supporting President Donald Trump. [More]

Misdemeanor assualt charges are hardly adequate. Since fists can and do kill, their victim would have been justified “buying them each a round.”

Let’s hope this follows cowardly lying communists Patrick Mahoney and Gerald Hoff around for a good long time, and that they both run into men who want to see what they’re capable of one-on-one.

They’re Not the ‘Only Ones’

Civilians with permits stopped the attacks more frequently and faced a lower risk of being killed or injured than police. [More]

My guess would be the relevance of mentioning permits is that statistically, there may be more armed citizens with them in the types of areas where “active shootings” are more prevalent, especially since almost half the states don’t “allow” permitless carry. True, there’s no doubt an effect from the extra required training steps an average permit holder undergoes over permitless carriers, but I don’t think the data exists to quantify a difference. Many hardcore 2A activists who are practiced simply don’t believe in permits.

Here We Have Idaho…?

Idaho Gun Owner Found Not Guilty in Self-Defense Case – An Idaho gun owner from Kuna was found not guilty by a jury of his peers recently in a case that some are questioning why the gun owner was charged in the first place. [More]

Meet the prosecutor. Evidently, she takes her oath as seriously as she takes a dog’s.

She was endorsed by a self-described “staunch defender of the 2nd Amendment.”

Think he might reconsider…? We could ask…

An Inconvenient Truth

CPRC Study: Concealed Carriers Stop More Active Shooter Cases Than Police [More]

You can review the data and the methodology for yourself.

Gun-grabbers would rather the citizens who stopped aggressors had been unarmed and that the attackers had succeeded so they could dance in the blood and demand more.

Violence Never Solves Anything?

But some experts say there are simply too many lions in some places, many of which have lost their fear of humans, and treeing and freeing doesn’t go far enough. “They need hunting,” said John Chandler, the professional El Dorado County trapper who caught the lion that attacked Brooks’ nephews. “It solves everything.” [More]

Human victims made possible by citizen disarming Democrats and other humanity traitors like those at the Center for Biological Diversity who prioritize wild animals of all species above human lives.
