Good Guy With A Gun Stops Gunman
Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 8/Aug/2018 16:37
From Guns.com:
The Titusville Police Department said the incident at Isaac Campbell Park late Saturday afternoon was sparked over a fistfight after which one of the brawlers returned with a gun and started shooting. An armed bystander lawfully carrying a concealed handgun then returned fire and hit the suspect– the only person injured in the event.
Social Media Purge Has Begun
Posted by Brian in Comms, News, Threat Watch on 7/Aug/2018 23:26
From Zero Hedge:
One day after what appeared to be a coordinated attack by media giants Facebook, Apple, Spotify and Google on Alex Jones, whose various social media accounts were banned or suspended in a matter of hours, the crackdown against alternative media figures continued as several Libertarian figures, including the Ron Paul Institute director, found their Twitter accounts suspended.
Florida Dem Says NRA Turning Kids To Targets
From Fox News:
Jeff Greene, a Florida gubernatorial candidate, accused the National Rifle Association of turning “our kids into targets†in a striking new advertisement.
“As a father, I won’t stand by while the NRA turns our kids into targets,†a mailer, released Tuesday, says in bold letters atop an image of outlined children with backpacks as shooting targets. The fake targets say “AR Practice†and have the logo of the gun rights organization.

The War On Gun Culture
From Bearing Arms:
However, maybe it is time that we spend a bit more time declaring our allegiance to the Second Amendment publicly. I’m not talking about telling your friends you support it, either. I suspect the average Bearing Arms reader’s friends and family are already aware.
No, I’m talking about wearing pro-Second Amendment clothing, brands, and other such items. Wearing a Glock ball cap while wearing a snarky pro-gun shirt will signal to people that you support the Second Amendment. If people see it enough, they’ll come to understand that we’re all around them and represent no threat. We’ve always been there, and we’ve never been a threat.
Explanation Of Futile Injunction Against Defense Distributed
Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 2/Aug/2018 12:58
From National Review:
We are in the grips of a bizarre political panic that is disconnected from the facts and the law but is deeply connected not just to the larger culture war over gun rights in the United States but also to the deep suspicion of virtually any action taken by the Trump administration. There was a time when we could have greater confidence in federal courts to take a breath, soberly consider the issues, and introduce a measure of reason and rationality to legal debate. In some courts — especially when Trump administration actions are at issue — those days are long past.
Rights Supporters Made To Feel Like Criminals
Posted by Brian in Law, Opinion, Threat Watch on 2/Aug/2018 07:29
From Forbes:
But gun business owners who say they want to engage in a real dialogue about how to make America safer say they aren’t sure they can – both because of the lack of information on the other side of the issue, and because they’re losing trust that gun control advocates are acting in good faith. Most people, says Jeff Wait, the owner of Okeechobee Shooting Sports in Central Florida, think more gun laws will be a quick fix to a really hard problem. He doesn’t believe gun laws could fix anything.

Federal Judge Shuts Down DEFCAD
Posted by Brian in Law, News, Threat Watch on 1/Aug/2018 07:35
DEFCAD is temporarily offline due to the order of a federal judge in Washington. This is after the State Dept. agreed that DEFCAD could post 3D printer files for several guns. Go to defcad.com to support your first and second amendment rights. This is the last gasp of the gun banners. Soon any law passed will have no effect on a person’s ability to arm themselves.
Anti-Rights Initiative Brings Lawsuits In Washington State
Posted by Brian in Law, News, Threat Watch on 31/Jul/2018 12:16
From Guns.com:
Washington Secretary of State Kim Wyman certified the I-1639 “Gun Violence Prevention†ballot referendum for the November General Election after examining a random sample of 11,380 of the 378,085 signatures submitted by its sponsors. Wyman, a Republican, cautioned that “concerns remain†about the whether the format of the petition signature sheets complies with statutory requirements — as previously questioned by the gun rights groups — but said the initiative could move forward.
Critical Look At The Second Amendment
From Topic.com:
Colonial gun culture held together an uncertain American experiment. Guns were a necessity of frontier life—needed for hunting and protecting livestock—and were also used as insurance against human threats. Guns, and the white men wielding them, controlled indigenous peoples who resisted incursions onto their land and the enslaved peoples whose labor was essential for Southern plantations.
Defense Distributed Dodges Final Shot From Gun Banners
Posted by Brian in Law, News, Threat Watch on 29/Jul/2018 17:09
From The Truth About Guns:
“A U.S. judge on Friday rejected a last-ditch effort by gun control groups to block the Trump administration from allowing the public to download blueprints for 3-D printable guns, declining to intervene just days before the designs are expected to go online.†So reports Reuters.
What Could Have Been In Toronto Shooting
Posted by Brian in News, Opinion, Threat Watch on 29/Jul/2018 07:11
From FEE.org:
The shooting that took place in Toronto (Canada) on Sunday was, in one way, similar to the aftermath of the terrorist attack in Paris on January 7, 2015. In the latter case, people took smartphone videos of fleeing terrorists shooting at policemen and killing an unarmed one. In Toronto, there were several powerless witnesses, and at least one person, apparently from an apartment overlooking the scene, videoed the killer as he was firing from the sidewalk below. In both cases, if a video taker had had a pistol instead of a smartphone, he could have engaged the killer, at least slowing him down, and saved lives or prevented serious bodily injuries.
Gun Banners Rush To Stop 3D Printing
From Guns.com:
However, with news of the looming settlement circulating far and wide on mainstream media, the three largest national gun control groups — Brady, Everytown, and Giffords — banded together to intervene in the legal case, now in an Austin federal court.
On Wednesday, the groups submitted a 22-page filing seeking a temporary restraining order in the settlement, arguing that to allow DefDist to publish the files — some of which have been in the public domain for decades and are already widely available in multiple formats — would cause “immediate and irreparable harm†and contribute to the arming of felons and terrorists.

From The Truth About Guns:
Police responded to a report of shots fired at a Haiku home at about 10:35 p.m. Thursday and found three adult victims who said three males wearing hooded sweatshirts entered their home with one of them brandishing a shiny handgun.
