I 'm sure that Hitler and Stalin agreed with your anti-liberty position,
but America is supposed to be the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.
That includes the freedom of ANYONE to defend his life from predatory violence.
Background checks are only for DISCRIMINATION concerning
WHO can legally defend his life and who can t. A lot of it is based on race.
That is against "equal protection of the laws".


Regarding your link, I ALSO have been shot at while driving my car.
A bullethole opened up in my driver's side door window
about 3 inches in front of my face (presumed attempted robbery).
The fight ENDED when my own gun came out.

Thay departed hence b4 I was able to line up a shot.

i am not even going to read what you wrote...

How much difference does that make ???

How much difference doesn't it make?
...a sly rhetoric in logic i learned in my 20's...

you have to be worthy of getting in my head....

I shall aspire!

What sources did they use to confirm the stories in the article? Seems like it is only "reports" from anti-gun people. Any police reports filed for any of the assaults? Did they talk to the police to verify the information?

I'm calling bullshit on this article. Are there any verifiable facts?

Most of the gun lovers whom I know
are polite gentlemen or ladies.

Many NRA meetings have been family-oriented,
with wives & children in attendance.

More lies from the anti-gun left.

Mendacity & deception are the innermost essence of the left.

Why I Carry:
Armed Robber Murders 1 Hiker and Shoots Another
After They Complied During Robbery

MAY 19 2014

BY DAN CANNON

Many times you’ll hear law enforcement spokespeople and other
public officials advise that compliance is the best way to get through a violent crime.

Unfortunately, for two California hikers that didn’t work.
The two men were hiking a northern California trail when
they were robbed at gunpoint.

After complying with all of the robber’s requests,
the suspect shot both men. One of the victims died at the scene
and the second was left for dead for nearly three hours until other
hikers came upon the grisly scene.

According to CBS News, Francis “Pat” Gregory, 69, of West Tisbury,
and a 76-year-old man from Manton, California, were hiking a trail
north of Red Bluff on Friday when they were confronted by a gunman,
said Tehama County Sheriff’s Lt. Dave Greer.


The robber shot the men after taking their money and belongings,
and left the victims for dead on a remote part of the trail until
another hiker came upon them about three hours later.

Gregory died at the scene; the surviving victim was hospitalized with
critical injuries. A doctor told investigators he was expected to pull
through, Greer said.

This is yet another story that illustrates why I carry, everyday.

The Need to Carry Guns at Home

I very seldom carry guns at home because I feel so
extremely SAFE, but local CBS News in Florida
has news concerning "Toxic Divorce", including a vengeful wife
who murdered her 2 adolescent children, during the divorce.

The 2 victims NEEDED to be sufficiently well armed
against their own mother. Thay were NOT, and thay got killed because of that.

Both of the victims were in 1OO% COMPLIANCE with EVERY
gun control law. For that reason: thay got killed.

The penalty for obaying gun control laws is death, with no appeal.

Or, perhaps, had a background check been done on the mother it may have shown she had mental problems and would not have been issued a gun in the first place.



Arming is your solution for everything. Do you ever even consider that disarming is a solution also?

The same way that no one is "issued" marijuana,
so no one can ever get any, right, Rex ?
The same way that no one was able to get
any booze during the 1920s, right???

There are some very good private gunsmiths, who take pride in their work.



For one thing, that is un-Constitutional,
the same as stealing their Bibles or stealing their newspapers.
For another thing, no one in his right mind will allow himself
to remain defenseless. Obviously, he will re-arm,
in defense of his life and property.

Blacks have as much of a Constitutional Right to defensively arm themselves as anyone.

Craig stands by 2nd Amendment support
in wake of NRA magazine cover story

Chief James Craig on citizens' use of guns: Detroit's top cop explains
his controversial support of the Second Amendment

Detroit — Police Chief James Craig on Monday reiterated his support
for the Second Amendment in the wake of a National Rifle Association
magazine cover story that featured the chief advocating for gun rights.

During a one-on-one interview with The Detroit News, and a press
conference outside police headquarters later Monday, Craig said
he not only supports the right to bear arms, but Michigan’s Open Carry law,
which allows licensed gun owners to carry their firearms in non-
restricted areas, as long as they’re not concealed.

“It’s the law, and I support the law,” he said. “The Second Amendment
was written more than 200 years ago. It’s not a James Craig law. “

“We’ve heard instances of accidental discharges; or guns getting into
the hands of children,” Craig said. “That’s terrible. But we’re talking
about law-abiding, responsible citizens. ‘Responsible’ is the key word here.”

Community activist Ron Scott issued a press release Monday criticizing
the NRA article.

“In a time when the citizens of Detroit are trying to find their way
out of the current cycle of violence, this is not the time for the
Department to use the Chief's public persona to unify with the
political posture of the National Rifle Association,” Scott said. “This is
a public safety and community issue, not simply a Second Amendment issue.”

Craig said he doesn’t understand why anyone would have a problem
with a police chief saying he supports the Constitution.

“I’m pro-life,” he said. “I’m pro-safety. I support law-abiding citizens’
right to protect themselves against imminent danger.”

Craig said responsible gun ownership was analogous to responsible driving.

“The majority of people on the roads drive responsibly,” he said.
“So if a few people drive irresponsibly, what’s the solution?
Do we take away all cars?”

Responding to reports that the NRA is considering holding its annual
convention in Detroit, Craig said: “I don’t see a problem with that.
Organizations that hold conventions in Detroit help the economy.”

Craig’s stance on guns, unusual for big-city police chiefs, made
national news after he told The Detroit News in January that
responsible gun owners could deter crime. He said he hasn’t yet
heard criticism from fellow police chiefs about his views — “But I
expect to,” he said.

“Privately, I’m sure some (chiefs) will agree with me,” Craig said.
“There was a study done where 15,000 line officers were polled,
and they overwhelmingly supported the right to carry.”

Craig, in a candid question-and-answer session for the NRA magazine
America’s 1st Freedom insists he is not responsible for a rash of at
least eight incidents in which residents have shot home intruders
since January. He said self-defense shootings “actually started before
I arrived here.”

“I believe responsible, good Americans have a right to protect
themselves from an immediate threat to their life or to the life of another,”
Craig says in the June web article titled “A Show of Courage in Detroit.”
“I believe our focus should be on how to keep guns out of hands
of criminals and those who aren’t responsible.”

Craig said he has noticed a “culture of violence” in Detroit since
arriving in July as the top cop. In another statement, which is
featured on the magazine cover next to his photograph he stresses:
“We’re not advocating violence. We’re advocates of not being victims.”

And residents are listening, the magazine said, saying that “average
citizens in harm’s way seem to have taken the advice to heart. ...”

“It does appear more and more Detroiters are becoming empowered,”
Craig says in the article, adding that he didn’t expect his stance to
generate the controversy that it has. “I really didn’t, because it’s a
Second Amendment-protected right.”

Police officials said Monday there have been 13 justifiable homicides
by citizens so far this year — up 2 from the same period last year.

“This is something that’s been going on since before I got here,”
he said. “Clearly, Detroiters are sick and tired of being victims.”

Once again, who is saying no one should have a gun?

Have you ever heard of a happy medium?

The right to drink yourself to death is quite different from the right to shoot up a school full of children.

The problems is you have a warped sense of perspective.

That happens when people become OBSESSED....

I LOVE your signature line, Rex.

There are people who feel that way; some say so.
Others do not, for temporary strategic reasons.


Not as to the fundamental right to defend your life and property, no.

Wud u tell someone: "U are not good enuf to vote in every election.
As a happy medium, U can only vote in ALTERNATE elections, or 1 out of 3 elections"??

If 2 boys were in mortal danger of their lives,
can u find it in your heart to say to them:
"OK, YOU, Frank have the right to defend your life,
but you, Ed, have to let them kill u, in their discretion" ??????






Yes. AGREED.
Everyone has the natural right to end his human life; its HIS.
Its not advisable to DO that. There have been complaints
from folks who have committed suicide.






I have CERTAINLY been obsessed with possession of defensive guns,
since, and before, the age of 3 years. I distinctly remember my eyes
locking onto the revolvers strapped onto the hips of NYC police.
I fondled those revolvers with my eyes. I daydreamed of
mis-appropriating not just the guns, but the entire rig with bandolier and holster.


At night in bed, I caressed those revolvers in my memory.
From ages 0 thru 7, I had no access to functional guns, in NY.
I craved them and yearned for them and discussed them a lot.

Your gun obsession has led you to erroneous conclusions.

Don't expect civil minded people to bow to your overt whims and fancies.

Well, the Supreme Law of America is on MY side,
and our highest court said so. I feel GOOD.

The Founders of this Republic loved MY position,
which is Personal Liberty of self defense.
