The Denver Post: Shoppers pulled guns in response to Thornton Walmart shooting, but police say that slowed investigation. Authorities had to eliminate possible suspects from surveillance video You mean the police had to do their job?

Hillary Clinton, while pushing for gun control: “I cannot come to Sanford without talking about Trayvon Martin,” she continued. “It’s heartbreaking that this young man all he did was go to a cornerstone, bought a pack of Skittles and walked back home in the rain. And his life was cut short.” I don’t think invoking […]

And hates that he has that freedom: In an effort to highlight a need for enhancing background check requirements, Rep. Mike Stewart brought a newly purchased semi-automatic rifle to Legislative Plaza on Wednesday. Stewart, D-Nashville, had the military-style weapon with him during a House Civil Justice Subcommittee meeting where he presented two bills that would […]

Donald Trump: He was Trump. Loudmouthed and attacking. Went after the moderators. The moderators were more interested in asking “gotcha” questions than moderating. But that was for all candidates. Some good one liners. And if anyone thinks he gave money to Clinton to get her to his wedding, well, I’ve got this bridge. Jeb Bush: […]

Via the captain, mob of teens rampages a Wal-Mart. * 9mm obviously because 18 in the gun and 34 more on the hip would be handy.

Hey, let’s carry a shotgun into a wal-mart, buy ammo, and load it in the aisle.

That guy who tackled a permit holder in a walmart guilty

Looks like it happened again. This time, thankfully, the gun toter prevailed.

The incident where the man lawfully carrying a gun was tackled by another man was captured on video. Did you see that? A law-abiding black man minding his own business when suddenly an obviously racist white guy batters him. I wonder when Al Sharpton will organize a march to protest this injustice! Also, post tackle, […]

Remember that idiot who tackled the man lawfully carrying a gun? Well, Shannon Watts, who is apparently a few fries short of a happy meal, responded: Man arrested for tackling man with gun at Walmart. Because America. http://t.co/reEtSGvKr3 #gunsense — Shannon (@shannonrwatts) January 21, 2015 More at Twitchy. It’s amusing to me that, despite blocking […]

Man sees another man carrying a gun at Wal-Mart. And tackles him: A Lithia man has been charged after he tackled another man Tuesday who had a handgun in a holster — and a permit to carry — at a Wal-Mart. About 11:58 a.m., deputies responded to the store at 11110 Causeway Blvd. where Clarence […]

Trouble with it is if you don’t control your purse, you don’t control the gun: A 2-year-old boy accidentally shot and killed his mother after he reached into her purse at a northern Idaho Wal-Mart and her concealed gun fired, authorities said Tuesday. Awful.

John Crawford’s family wants to know why Ritchie’s 911 call doesn’t jive with what actually happened: Crawford’s father and the family’s attorney said that Ritchie, 24, should be questioned by police over the discrepancy between the footage and his allegation, which he made about 80 seconds before Crawford was shot, and confirmed when asked soon […]

But the cops shot John Crawford for seemingly no reason: Ronald Ritchie should be in jail. And the cop should have done a better job. That shooting was instant. No way he could have complied with an order.

I mentioned a bit back my doubts about the story of the kid walking through Wal-Mart with an BB gun pointing it at people. Because, frankly, I thought it was odd that the BB gun was not in a box. And because when you buy guns at Wal-Mart, they tend to walk out of the […]

I was once walking through Costco pushing a loaded buggy that had a large box across the top that put it about head high. Some 20 something kid staring at his phone and walking is walking right toward me. I could have said “hey, moron, pay attention”. I didn’t. I just stopped. And watched the […]

The new Giffords Gun Control Group. You know, based on comments here, I’m going to guess my humble website has more grassroots activists than most gun control groups.

Brownells reports selling 3.5 years worth of magazines in 72 hours Heh Confusing cause and effect: How Walmart Helped Make the Newtown Shooter’s AR-15 the Most Popular Assault Weapon in America. No, it already was the most popular rifle in America, that’s why they started selling them. Once again, Tennessee records record gun sales. Permits […]

Black Gun Friday! Wal-Mart selling politically incorrect self loading rifles is a theme.

Looks like Wal-Mart security may have killed a shoplifter. I don’t that retailers can forcefully detain someone. And, in most places, deadly force to protect property is a no go.

An app called StreetSafe does, well, some stuff: StreetSafe, a relatively new app for smartphones, claims that for a minimum of $12.50 a month, it will coach you with safety advice in frightening areas on your way to any location. One first feature is called “Walk With Me,” where the user can connect with a […]

If you skimmed this story, you’d think a Wal-mart security guard drew a gun and killed a shoplifter. Only not. Seems the thief was armed and drew his gun which was wrestled away from him. But you have to read quite a few paragraphs in. And the employee wound up quitting over it. So why, […]

I had to laugh and share reader mikee comment on marketing over the years: I lived through years of hype over many things, some old, some new. I have read: Of the inherent perfection of 38 Special duty revolvers. Of 357 Magnum revolvers’ superiority over 38SPL. Of how grizzly bears only respect 44 Magnum, no […]

I’ve always thought them useless and, mostly, throw mine away or use them to lock the odd gate or box around the house. But it turns out, they come in handy at retail establishments: “The reality is, the guy had a gun and was trying to load it,” Zardeneta said. “If he was trying to […]

You know, I have stray rounds in odd calibers in different places. I could probably load a full magazine from strays in my get home bag. I can go to Walmart and just buy ammo. I can hop online and have reasonably priced ammo sent right to my door. But in DC: In Washington, D.C., […]

Teach your kids to fight, it may come in handy: Ga. girl fights off would-be abductor in Walmart. The girl is 7. I actually talked a little bit about self-defense with my kids and my nephews and nieces. Teaching them useful things like fight in public and never go to a second location. And not […]

AR-15s for sale at Wal-Mart’s website. No doubt, Bloomberg will begin investigating them.

Been a theme here lately to show ARs at Wal-Mart. Well, here’s more Sigs at Wal-Mart. Via David who notes No question, “assault rifles” are now “firearms in common use”.

Oh sure, there’s been several instances of AR-15s for sale at Wal-Mart. But now, an uber tacticool Sig Sauer AR for sale at Wal-Mart.

Anyone can buy them, without a background check or waiting period or proving they’re playing a baseball game. Or you could just grab one off the shelf and beat someone to death.
