    Resident versus non resident ccw permits.

    Given that they cannot manage a restaraunt, I think it is an excellent idea to keep the feds out of it. I live in CA, which will never recognize any other state's permits because we here are soooo special, and I still think we are better off without the feds involved.

    Interesting info on CA microstamping.

    Glenn, Have you got a reference to the liar?...I would love to post this in some places in CA

    Slow Texas CHL renewal process

    I am one of the problems, forgot a piece of paper in my app. I sent it in, checked progress once (and got a courteous reply) and finally have my license. As I reside in CA, I am just happy I have it and can carry when I am out of CA. Can't carry here...not trustworthy enough...mostly only...

    Results of New York Gun Control Day 2008

    Well holy snot. I guess Mikey Bloomberg is grinning like the hyena he is. I live in California and I bet they will try this year to surpass NY. Prayers tonight the Supremes go the right way and side with the Founders...and DC Circuit. This is appalling. Good luck, you all in NY. I...

    "Gun Lobby Has Property Rights in its Sights":Pro-gun Business Leader Doesn't Get It

    When I had a shop in TX, there was a double murder about half a mile away in another industrial building over a long weekend. We were working long hours and weekends, sometimes just a few people. I met with employees and we agreed to the following. +anybody with a TX permit could bring...

    International scholars amicus brief (with contributions from THR)

    Very interesting, in view of Barabara Frey's work for the UN IIRC to find there is no internationally-recognized right of self-defense, for the committee that seeks to ban all light arms except for government use. This was back in 2006. The Brits tend to imprison people who act in...

    "Self Defense Gun" Kills 3 year old....

    I have to say my heart goes out to the mother, what a nightmare. That said, I hope she understands what she did and remembers it every day she has left. There is no excuse. I guess further proof that there are no accidental discharges, only negligent ones. And media bias that guns act of...

    News from Canada

    Welcome to the site, Pierre! If you want to see the results of handgun bans, examples abound. Britain, Washington DC, Zimbabwe... The Toronto Mayor cannot control events like this sad shooting. His police cannot. He must pretend, however, and so proposes gun bans. Outlaws will not...

    Some Fanatics are Not Understood

    Time to Rethink the Defense of Reason By David Warren Lee Harris is among the few living writers who do not, as the saying goes, "subtract from the sum total of human knowledge" with each new essay. I've puffed him before, and will puff him again, the more shamelessly in the knowledge that...

    Fenty To Decide On Parker Appeal "Within The Next Week"

    The basis of Parker's majority is the inalienable, individual right to effective self-defense, not gun possesion, as the intent of 2A. THAT precedent will be very great trouble for Bloomberg, Brady et. al. They will not appeal. Fenty will borrow rules from NYC and hope no one pushes on...

    Fenty To Decide On Parker Appeal "Within The Next Week"

    I would bet Fenty is borrowing lawyers from Bloomberg to write law for DC like NY's. That might work, or it might really get the lot of them in trouble if they lost that one in court. Whatever, I expect the first option is strategic lawyering, not following through on heartfelt convictions...

    Poll - magazine ban in IL - please vote

    Ideologues are often stupid, and stupid is as stupid does. The Gov cannot get his ban any other way, which is further indictment that it neither has support nor is good public policy. You flunk, gov.

    New OSHA Rulemaking-Black & Smokeless Powder, Primers, Ammo

    If I read th proposal correctly, finished small arms ammo is excluded from the transportation and storage requirements as it is specifically recognized as being a nominal hazard. However, it appears that smokeless powder and primers are lumped into the same class of explosive as RDX, TNT and...

    4th of July in San Francisco

    Off topic on politics? This is our poltical environment. Next time someone tells you all about oppression in America, think about this one. Anyone can make a faux Rushmore with mass murderers on it. Doing so does tell a tale about their priorities and values. Sorry you don't like it.

    DC handgun case

    I think Fenty will duck, at the behest of Sarah Brady and Mike Bloomberg. Sarah would be a nobody and Bloomberg lose an issue if he appeals and loses. They need the status quo. DC will consult with NYC and write similar law, banning guns without banning them. Fenty, if voted out of office...

    See also the thread on understatement of violent crime in the UK. Already they have the most violent crime per capita of any developed country-for the last three years running. When a homeowner cannot be paroled (for killing a burglar in self-defense) because he is a "menace to burglars"...
