I get offended when people say that.

That phrase is almost always a way to avoid having a rational discussion.

15 sites that forbid you from linking to them. Really, UPS? So when I type a tracking number into Google and it links to you, you’re not a fan?

Looks like it to me.

I’m not entirely opposed to this concept. Other sites sell those stupid CCW Badges, which are dumb, may cause legal trouble, may get you shot, and definitely look mall ninjaish. But the color-coded idea isn’t too bad. But, sparky, don’t call me civilian. The police are civilians too.

NSSF reports a 73% increase in gun sales to women. Also, that article features someone we know.

Sean has a look at some numbers.

Cool.

A bill passes the legislature to make use of suppressors legal for outdoor recreation, including hunting.

Until the NRA Annual Meeting in Pittsburgh. Here’s a summary of PA’s handgun laws.

I’ll be there, getting in Thursday. Who else is going?

The Joyce Foundation buys an anti-gun story.

The Child Safety Lock Act of 2005 requires guns to come with a lock. Yesterday, I threw away 13 of them. Such a waste of money. And they’ll spend just shy of forever in a landfill. But it’s the law. For the children.

Brownells is hiring!

A state police officer is seeking to have a judge arrested because the judge didn’t sign an arrest warrant. Wow. Amazing.

The idiots at The Daily Mail have no idea what an anarchist is. I was going to be a smart but Tam already was for me.

Get a free gun.

Speaking of satellite, DirecTv and Tivo announced their supposed partnership like two years ago and still nothing.
