From Breitbart:
The legislation, House Bill 786, expands current carry provisions from carrying in a bag, purse, or satchel without a permit to carrying holstered without a permit, as well. TheNRA-ILA reports that Michael Bloomberg-funded Everytown for Gun Safety vehemently and unsuccessfully opposed the bill, which passed the House by a vote of 85-35.

Adm. McRaven Doesn’t Want Students Carrying Guns
From The Daily Texan:
“I’m a big second amendment guy, you know; I’m a strong supporter,†McRaven said. “But my position today — I’m an educator. As I look across the students and the faculty and the administrators and the staff and their concerns that they have voiced to me about this creating an unsafe environment with more guns on campus, it’s hard for me to support campus carry when I see their concerns.â€
Number of Younger Shooters Growing Rapidly
From The Washington Times:
“What separates shooting sports from stick-and-ball sports is that when it’s time for our kids to go to a tournament, all the kids can compete — heavy, thin, tall, short, fast, slow, boy or girl — it doesn’t make them any different,†Mr. Wondrashsaid. “That’s what really lends itself to our sport.â€
The SSSF has programs in 42 states and has seen participation grow from about 6,000 students four years ago to 13,000 now, Mr. Wondrash said.
License To Carry to Exceed One Million in Texas
From CBS DFW:
…a combination of fears of terrorism brought on by the shootings in San Bernardino and President Obama’s proposed gun control laws.
“Then you have the new law that went into effect January the first (Open Carry)…all of that plays into it, and that’s why we’re seeing numbers. For the first time the State of Texas will actually go over one million licensed holders,†says Cargill.
California Bill Could Treat Gun Owners Like Murderers
From Ammoland:
The bill, authored by Senator Ben Allen (D-Redondo Beach) will make non-violent firearms related crimes “continuing offenses.†These offenses involve unlawful self-importation or transfers of firearms. These crimes need not have any criminal intent, nor is there a victim involved. These victimless crimes are the act of import or transfer, not possession.
SB 1037 would make this prosecutable for life- the same as capital murder- all for forgetting to fill out a form and mail it to the California Department of Justice with $19.00.

Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 28/Mar/2016 07:00
From Bearing Arms:
A St. Paul, Minnesota man was brutally assaulted by a gang of 15 to 30 young men who were gambling in his driveway as he returned from work.
32-year-old Bruce Chang says when he tried to clear the group to gain access to his driveway, they began to assault him, even throwing rocks and jabbing sticks at his face and torso.
Fortunately for him, his wife also has a permit. She was able to run outside and draw her gun – scaring off the gang and ending her husband’s violent attack.
SCOTUS Nominee Garland Not Fond Of Guns
From The Washington Times:
In one 2000 case, Judge Garland, who sits on the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, upheld a Clinton administrationeffort to store gun-buyers’ records.
 Later in the decade, he joined other judges in a failed bid to reconsider the landmark case that would eventually establish the Second Amendment’s protection of a personal right to bear arms.
Insanity: Maryland Democrat Proposes Banning BB Guns, Toys
From Grand View Outdoors:
The new bill proposed by Baltimore delegate Jill Carter would bar the sale, possession or use of so-called “imitation firearms†and would impose a $1,000 fine and up to a year in prison for any violation. The bill defines imitation firearms as “a toy, a device or an object that substantially duplicates or can reasonably be perceived to be a firearm or a handgun.â€
There is no so-called “grandfather clause,†so according to the legislation, anyone who owns a toy or an air gun that’s defined as an “imitation†would be violating the law.
Disarmed Canadians Thwart Bear Attack With Wits and Rocks
Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 29/Feb/2016 07:00
The anti-gun Canadian government has left their citizens at the mercy of apex predators. The government doesn’t care if people are mauled to death by some of the largest land predators on earth as long as they can “feel safe” in their urban enclaves.

Charles Cobb Talks To NPR About The Use Of Guns In The Civil Rights Movemnet
Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 20/Jan/2016 07:00
From NPR:
I’m very much concerned with how the history of the southern freedom movement or civil rights movement is portrayed. And, I’m very conscious of the gaps in the history, and one important gap in the history, in the portrayal of the movement, is the role of guns in the movement. I worked in the South, I lived with families in the South. There was never a family I stayed with that didn’t have a gun. I know from personal experience and the experiences of others, that guns kept people alive, kept communities safe and all you have to do to understand this is simply think of black people as human beings and they’re gonna respond to terrorism the way anybody else would.
In France Refugees Stop Attack When Threatened With A Gun
Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 16/Jan/2016 07:00
From The Daily Wire:
A video making the rounds purports to show a group of French citizens confronted by what seems to be north African Muslim immigrants of male working-age armed with rocks, knives, and bats.
Obama Lies To Rape Victim About Guns
During a CNN “townhall” the President told a rape victim that nothing he is proposing is going to make it harder for a citizen to buy a gun:
https://youtu.be/7ay0pMVMpHE?t=1m49s
During the same meeting he said that he wants to make it harder and more expensive to get a gun in order to make sure fewer people have them.
Making guns harder and more expensive to get will have a disproportionate effect on poor people. This is not only an attack on gun buyers but more specifically poor gun buyers. Poor people are usually the ones who need a gun the most because they generally live in a higher crime area. They have a limited amount of purchasing power already. A $25 dollar tax on firearms, like the one Seattle passed, may not seem like a lot of money but it is significant to someone living near or below the poverty line. Making guns more expensive is tantamount to a poll tax only this time it will affect those with less economic advantage rather than those with a different skin color.
How The President Views Rights and Guns
From Popehat:
Today the President of the United States gave a speech about gun control measures. I don’t intend to critique those measures. Nor do I mean to critique his rhetoric about gun violence. I do intend to critique his language about rights, because how our leadersdiscuss rights can have a powerful impact on how Americans understand rights.
Trump Calls Out Clinton On Gun Hypocrisy
From Breitbart.com:
On January 3 Trump responded with: “Hillary said that guns don’t keep you safe. If she really believes that she should demand that her heavily armed bodyguards quickly disarm!â€
California Passes Law That Ignores Due Process, Strips Guns
From Southern California Public Radio:
Family members who believe a loved one poses a danger to themselves or others will be able to ask police to seek a temporary “gun violence†restraining order from a judge beginning Jan. 1. The order would allow police to seize the person’s guns for 21 days.
Under the new law, a restraining order could be issued without prior knowledge of the person. In other words, a judge could issue the order without ever hearing from the person in question, if there are reasonable grounds to believe the person is a threat based on accounts from the family and police.
