Gabby Giffords Washington, DC —After two decades of setbacks the gun ban movement was all but dead in America. Concealed carry had swept the nation and the last two standing gun banswere struck down in two separate recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions.  With fewer restrictions and millions more guns in circulation the nation’s crime and gun accident rate has been dropping everywhere but in Chicago.   Of coursetoday the Windy City’s draconian gun ban is on the judicial ropes. The Second Amendment has reemerged from an avalanche ofpolice raids, arrests and civil rights violations. The Brady Institute was allbut shuttered but for their hope that Barack Obama , a proven gun rights and liberty hater would somehow turn back the tide.  Recent mass shootings, particularly the Sandy Hook Schoo l inNewtown, CT were shamelessly exploited by the political Left and their news media cheerleaders.  Long time Gun Ban Scam advocates Diane Feinstein an...

Carol Stream, IL —In this western Chicago suburb is a business I’ve been associated with for over four decades, Eagle Grips.   It’s a high end gun grip maker that has graced hundreds of gun magazine cover throughout the world.  They offer genuine ivory, Sambar Stag, Mother of Pearl and American Elk Grips along with Rosewood and Ebony wood.   Now they developed a new process creating a material called Kirinite .  I can’t describe this material anything short of elegant and wonderful.  The material is impervious to dulling or scratching and the grips stick to the hands and fingers of the shooters.  Every possible property you’d ever want.

My 1934 Bank Robbery Arrest Booking Photo Before I Broke Out of the Crown Point, IN Jail... You’ve seen them all over your televisions, computer screens and in newspaper photos.  The images of some accused person wearing prison jump suits, prison stripes, handcuffs and even bulletproof vests.  Nearly every prisoner always looks very unhappy.   I’m not talking about convicted criminals but people that are simply accused of crimes.  Okay more that 80% of those accused of crime later plead guilty or are convicted of something.  The real truth is many are actually innocent have a right to and deserve a fair trial. Today more than ever the stories about high profile arrests are seen by virtually everyone. Before the Internet you had to watch TV news at certain times on your TV set or locate and read a newspaper.  Now through our new multimedia technology we are bombarded with these stories and images like never before. I want you to imagine you...

Washington-DC —The latest political assault on gun rights seems to surround this rifle platform more than any. However they are planning to ban millions of other handguns, rifles and shotguns along the way.  Ignorance and stupidity is leading the gun banners and grabbers in the wrong direction.  The AR-15/M-16/M-4 is essentially the same short rifle or carbine.  It fires a miniscule .223caliber/5.56 MM cartridge.   The already banned military M-16/M-4 assault rifle versionis fully automatic is not part of this argument.  The military version was designed so that the user could pull the trigger once and fire two to three rounds.  Holding the trigger back would of courseallow a machinegun type burst of fire until the magazine of up to 30 rounds went empty. However the barrel would be quickly destroyed by heat with thiskind of fire.  This little rifle was onlydesigned to fire the short bursts doubling or tripling the likelihood the targe...

Washington, DC —Every state in the union has criminalized the sharing of sexually explicit material with children.   We protect our children from any exposure to the natural and wonderful gift of sex.  We express love and find joy when we explore this magic our creator has given us.   However sex is deemed just not safe for children. Somehow I find the deliberate concealment of sex from children nothing less than perverse.  Children are taught that sexual activity is shameful and somehow wrong.  I have long suspected that this shielding does so much more harm than good.  Sex is a natural part of life like eating and breathing.  We’ve managed to somehow turn sex into something dirty and creepy. There is nothing wrong with our naked bodies unless we consume too much fried chicken and Twinkies.  Perhaps if kids saw more nakedness and knew about sex early   they’d better understand the importance of good eating habits a...

Phoenix, AZ-Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery announced this morning that the Grand Jury returned a No Bill, refusing to Indict Scottsdale lawyer David Appleton, 60.  In November 2011, Appleton shot and killed rodeo cowboy, Paul “Tom” Pearson , 50 after a vehicle chase in Scottsdale.  Apparently Pearson did not like Appleton’s driving and began chasing him for miles on the highway.  Appleton sought refuge and concealment in a shopping strip mall but was soon located and attacked by Pearson. Pearson grabbed Appleton by the throat strangling him and the lawyer fired a single shot from a .38 revolver striking him in the heart and spine.  Pearson died from his wound despite EMT lifesaving efforts. As for Appleton he’s told me that not a day has gone by when he has not said a prayer for Pearson’s lovely widow, Vicky and their three daughters.  The death of Pearson added to already hard financial times for the Pearson family.  Do to the ...

Berlin, Germany – On a soundstage here filming has begun on the WikiLeaks story.  It surrounds a reporter, Julian Assange who apparently hacked and captured tons of secret government communications. He soon released them to the world.   To no one’s surprise the governments involved have mislead the world of their agendas and conduct.   America has been running a secret government and gotten involved in dubious wars that our citizens know little about.  We learned from Assange and his cohorts that our politicians cannot be trusted.  For his revelations Assange should be a hero.  Letting the world know about the lies, distortions and reality should have brought about political revolt. Instead ignorant Americans continue follow their Judas Goat straight to Hell. My favorite actress, Carice van Houten is playing the spokeswoman for Assange and his group.  I know the film will be good and hopefully it will enlighten the world. I’...

Cyberspace —When anyone publishes material in any form where it’s expected to be viewed by others there is a responsibility that accompanies the offering. We must simply remember the so-called Golden Rule and there will never be a controversy.  However disagreement, revenge and hate have been in abundance on the free for all we call the Internet.  The laws of libel are for the most part simple.  Don’t publish lies about any living person or organization.  Only the living have standing to sue so only simple decency regulates what you publish about the departed souls in our world. Imagine if you suggested in a story that a major soft drink company sold a cola drink that contained poison.  Okay, one could argue that too much sugar was toxic and life threatening. Before it was over some major beverage manufacturer would own you even if sugar could be considered harmful. You can ask the question about whether someone is a crook in safety but callin...

Las Vegas, NV —As Obama and his minions want to further diminish liberty and freedom in the name of public safety you need to read much further. The possession and carrying of firearms is constitutionally protected activity.  Pure and simple this was guaranteed so Americans could use deadly force against government officials trying to disarm them.  Americans somehow accepted that their gun rights artificially converted into a coveted privilege for the rich and politically connected.  Just because it’s been that way for decades does not make it legal or constitutional. California is about to enter a state of siege.  The California Department of Corrections has been releasing felons at an alarming rate to comply with a court order.  They don’t have nearly enough parole agents to keep up with the young, dangerous and unemployable thugs being let loose.  Parole agents have warned me to tell the public what the politicians are trying to hide....

Las Vegas, NV —I spent some quality time with an incredible assortment of firearms of every type here at the SHOT Show .  When that ended the very upscale  Las Vegas Antique Arms Show at the Rivera Convention Center was my next stop.  Between the two shows there were nearly 100,000 people.  There were no assaults, accidents or even disturbances of any kind.  Crime takes a holiday in Las Vegas with all these gun-packing visitors. The mood at the shows was angry and even confrontational about suggestions that liberty and freedom be compromised away or surrendered for the bogus promise of public safety.  Today's Americans are more educated than ever about gun rights and why we have them in the first place.  The Second Amendment guarantees our right to keep and carry firearms.  It exists to fundamentally allow Americans to use force and violence against anyone trying to violate those Constitutional freedoms!  That simply means politic...

Las Vegas, NV-As more than 60,000 people descend on the SHOT Show in Sin City they collections are home alone. Because of Obama are firearms have tripled in value overnight. At to criminals they may seem priceless. Please put extra security on your firearms so they don't fall into the wrong hands. I would ask that you spread this message far and wide and warn your friends especially in states with the nastiest gun bans.

Las Vegas, NV — The Shooting and Hunting Outdoor Trade Show is about to begin in Sin City!  The public is not invited but even so as many as 60,000 visitors involved in the trade will attend.  This is the largest gun show in the world. Lots of celebrities will be on hand along with every significant firearm and accessory manufacturer in the world.  In the 35-year history of this show there’s never been a shooting, accidental or otherwise despite the presence of thousands of people and even more firearms. This year Second Amendment infringing political efforts will be heavily on the minds of the exhibitors and visitors alike.  Here on display will be the latest and greatest new products of every type for the Great Outdoors.  Additionally there is a special law enforcement/military section with every imaginable public safety related items.  Las Vegas has those great show and buffets.   Needless to say I will be attending th...

Blogger Paul Huebl with a S&W model 29 .44 Magnum revolver.   Washington, DC —Creating lists of law-abiding Americans with firearms has no benefits whatsoever.  Guns are almost never left at crime scenes and when they are learning the legal owners identity is usually meaningless because the offender is either captured or killed. There are two U.S. Supreme Court cases that make it clear that persons precluded by law from owning firearms cannot be forced to register their guns or face prosecution when they don’t.  Registration violates their rights against self-incrimination. We all saw the recent fallout from the names and personal information being published by a Leftist newspaper trying to somehow shame gun owners.  That list also told every thug, rapist and killer where to find unarmed and helpless victims.  Proponents of registration schemes claim that gun registration is harmless and no different than drivers and automobile licensing....
