George Zimmerman Acquittal Reflections and Lessons Learned

George Zimmerman Sanford, FL --This sad case began with a tragedy.    Travon Martin was a troubled lad who made terrible choices.  The data recovered from his cell phone and was later unlawfully hidden from George Zmmerman’s defense lawyers by prosecutors showed that Martin was heavily involved with illegal guns, drugs and fighting.  Judge Debra Nelson later ruled that cell phone evidence inadmissible and that was not at all unusual in our courts.  It may seem unfair to some but that’s what they normally do. As for Martin he apparently had personal issues with what he called, “crappy assed crackers” and was the one actually profiling Zimmerman clearly by race.  To me it’s logical and believable that Martin caused his own death by assaulting Zimmerman.  However we all must recognize that there are no witnesses or video to establish this fact with absolute 100% certainty. We must not never lose sight of is the fact that we don’t req...

Why Do We Refuse to Protect Our School Children?

A schoolmarm in Israel protecting her precious children... Newtown, CT —We have yet another slaughter by a total coward in a Gun-Free Zone .  The unintended deadly consequences of creating these “special areas” where self-defense is outlawed won’t end until we face the obvious fact that Gun-Free Zones protect nobody. We learned long ago that we must arm police because the guns save lives.  The reality is there’s never a cop around when you need one. We protect cash with armed guards but we only use Gun-Free Zones to protect our children.  It’s obvious cash is far more important than our children. We need to return armed police and security to every school and staff members to carry firearms after training. As the picture above from Israel demonstrates the schoolteachers there carry what our politicians call assault weapons.  Let’s use firearms to protect our children for a change.  Cops or properly vetted and well-trained armed security...

God, Gun Laws and Self-Defense

Los Angeles, CA —It’s appropriate that I write about this in jurisdiction with crappy gun laws, where they have unlocked the prison doors. Politicians here hate gun rights and have chosen for you to die rather than be able to fend off a killer. That’s the ugly truth. I’m not very religious but this is a way to keep a seemingly complicated issue simple. Our creator made man. Man was born into this world with some very necessary gifts. 1. Man was given the gift of fear. Without this we’d not have survived childhood. 2. Additionally man was given the basic instinct for survival and that with fear tells us exactly what to do in order to survive. 3. Last we were given the ability to make, or acquire tools/weapons that we need to survive. We also know evolution has refined our gifts throughout time. Everyday in America stronger, armed and better armed people commit atrocities against smaller, weaker or poorly armed victims. You either have means and ability to survive or you don’t....

Information Needed On Scottsdale Justifiable Homicide

Scottsdale, AZ —The November 10th fatal shooting behind the CVS pharmacy at Pima and Pinnacle Peak Roads is still under investigation by the defense team headed by Phoenix attorney, Richard D. Gierloff . There are still unanswered questions about battery and used golf cart store proprietor, Paul “Tom” Pearson , 50 (DOB 02-17-61), his habits and business dealings. Don’t assume for a second that the information you may possess is already known. Please, out of simple fairness and necessity please share it with the defense team. Thomas' personal vehicle sported a dealer’s plate registered to his battery business that is a licensed motor vehicle dealership. The problem is they were not selling cars. Such use of a dealer’s plate is in violation of state law. There are many unanswered questions bout Pearson and why he used his own three-ton vehicle as a deadly weapon threatening David Appleton for nearly two miles in busy Scottsdale traffic. Please contact me at the phone number or...

Gun Carrying is Necessary for Your Safety and Survival

Los Angeles, CA —You are required to “click it” or get a ticket according to the public safety announcements. We all insist that a short drive to church on Sunday or the grocery store poses little or no safety risk. The reality is most fatal vehicle accidents happen close to home. I don’t need a law to encourage me to buckle up because I see the necessity to do this whether there is a law or not. The gun rights haters make lame remarks that carrying a gun at the shopping mall or to church is somehow silly and even somehow a danger to public safety. The fact is most robberies, carjackings, rapes and murders happen close to home in these so-called, safe places or around nearby parking areas. Suggesting you only need a gun only in your home is ludicrous. Your home with solid locks, your family members and maybe even a dog is a much safer place than any American street. Police might be able to respond to your call for help eventually but any physician will tell you that ...

Ghetto Violence Invasion of Chicago Tourist Attractions Continues Unchecked

Chicago, IL—Just feet away from my old home (Marina City) a cowardly young African-American assailant fired a gun into the back of a man’s head. The victim was walking with friends to do some shopping in the area. This was on the State Street Bridge over the Chicago River. The gunman escaped Southbound. Police believe they recovered a shell casing from the fired round and a backpack belonging to the gunman. The unidentified victim is listed as critical condition in Northwestern Memorial Hospital. The shooting so far seems to be another random act of violence perpetrated against White victims by African-American terrorists. The law-abiding people of Chicago need to re-learn understand that they have an absolute birthright to enjoy the protection of our Second Amendment. Understand you have more than a right but a duty to defend yourself, family, friends and neighbors. You have little choice but to take serious steps to end this violent trend. Get yourself a large ...

African-American Mobs of Thugs Terrorize and Beat Whites at State Fair

Milwaukee, WI —The Dairy state has always been more than generous with African- Americans since they came here in droves from their Southern birthplace to collect famously extravagant welfare benefits some 50 years ago. African-Americans that migrated here went from being oppressed to being nurtured, tolerated and placed in the mainstream economically even if they did not seek employment. Today they still overwhelm the welfare rolls, jails and prisons. It’s not about skin color but the savage culture they’ve embraced. A huge segment of the African-American population thrives on hate, violence, thievery and drug abuse. African-Americans have become a threat to the physical safety of White citizens in nearly every large city in America where they have a significant presence in the population. The latest flash mob attacks are racially motivated. The targets of the African-Americans are middle-class white people they overwhelm, beat, sexually molest and rob. Yesterday the Wisconsin ...

Rahmm Emanuel Ends Fight over Gun Ranges in Chicago

Chicago, IL —Former Mayor Richard M. Daley was a master at throwing away good taxpayer money after bad. He felt his dictatorial ability trumped the Constitution’s Bill of Rights. Daley insisted on violating the civil rights of Chicagoans even after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled twice overturning gun bans. Daley spent millions and lost millions more when the courts ruled that the city pay the plaintiff’s legal fees. The dopes writing for the Chicago media outfits claim the city was ordered to pay the NRA . They seem to forget that the NRA was never the Plaintiff and that it was ordinary citizens of Chicago brought the action against their city’s tyranny. How many police officers could they have hired and trained with the money wasted fighting Chicagoan’s right to self-protection? How many prison beds could have been funded for violent offenders with the cash? Chicago’s new police superintendent put his shoe in his mouth at a lame attempt to revise gun control history. Garry McCarthy ...

Lawless Chicago Officials Deny 84 year-old Veteran His Right to Self Defense!

Chicago, IL —Protecting his country in both World War Two and the Korean Conflict was no problem for LaFerena Batchelor, 84 but now he is not even allowed to protect himself. You see in this city run by officials that gratuitously violates the Constitutional Rights of their citizens as they label Batchelor and others criminals. The McDonald and Heller cases issued by the U.S. Supreme Court made it abundantly clear that all Americans not convicted of felony crimes or those witout a history of mental illness have the absolute right to keep and bear arms for self-defense purposes. In Batchelor’s case he was denied the right to obtain a gun because he once fired a gun within the city limits to chase a pack of wild dogs away from his home. That was no felony but a very minor transgressio that happened 15 years ago. Chicago officials now simply refuse their “permission” for Batchelor to own a firearm. To Batchelor’s rescue is Chicago lawyer Joel Brodsky who is prepared to take the ci...

Surveillance Cameras and Law Enforcement

Chicago, I L—Surveillance cameras will be doubled for Chicago’s public transportation system. That was today’s announcement from city officials as a treatment for the rash of cell phone and IPod robberies. The wonderful thing about surveillance cameras is not their effectiveness to reduce crime but the political contributions generated by the contractors providing them do great things for re-election campaigns. Cameras are really not that helpful. There are thousands of images of dangerous criminals that never get identified. Video recordings are worthless in and of themselves. Most people are unaware that a picture or video in and off itself is hearsay and therefore inadmissible as courtroom evidence without an, eyewitness and or DNA evidence. No jury will never be given the task to determine if the subject in the video is the suspect charged with a crime absent the testimony of a human at the scene. One by one traffic photo Robocams are being removed from American streets as the c...

Meaningful Security Steps to deal with Chicago’s Flash Mob Violence

Chicago, IL —If you have a business in the now Flash Mob targeted Magnificent Mile insuring safety is vital. There are effective steps you can take to deal with theft and violence. Armed security is the most effective way to deal with thugs. These criminals are cowards and you can use their fear against them. If you can hire off-duty cops that will use their training and experience to effectively control the situation. Security cameras are meaningless except to warn you of what’s going on outside your front door or in difficult to monitor areas. Catching the images of thugs for potential later identification and apprehension does not protect anyone. If you have adequate training including the law and liability of the use of deadly force arm yourself with a heavy caliber handgun for self-defense. Keep valuable and unprotected merchandise away from the front door that might tempt such criminals. If you are the subject of a Flash Mob attack immediate and violent resistance is the easie...

Black on White Violence may be Good for Chicago

Chicago, IL —White folks on the Gold Coast have been smug for a long time as they supported the “Nanny” government programs and all that Liberal claptrap. Black violence was nearly always confined to the ghetto. White people are beginning to learn about the violent and bankrupt African-American culture of Chicago the hard way. The Black Flash Mob crime pattern is targeting Chicago’s White people in incredibly hateful new ways. These thugs easily overwhelm the outgunned, overworked, underpaid and totally demoralized police department and evade arrest by their sheer numbers. Those ignorant White, Gold Coast Liberals that don’t believe in gun rights or self-defense are getting what they deserve, a very painful education. The cowardly thugs know the law-abiding Gold Coast dwellers would never violate those un-constitutional guns laws and accordingly are soft and easy targets. They say a Conservative is a liberal that was mugged. There’s a lot of truth in that old saying. The concealed weap...

Mass Prison Convict Releases—A Better Solution

Los Angeles--The United States Supreme Court has spoken and now 46,000 bogymen must be released from California prisons. With no jobs available as it is, the prospects for honest work for these proven thugs is simply non-existent. The majority of these criminals are drug addicted and will do anything to pay the cost of feeding their habits. California is about to see a firestorm of crime like never before. A more logical way to deal with this is through ending the drug prohibition and letting out only drug offenders. Burglars, robbers, rapists and such need to stay put. With legalized drugs, their cost will fall to that of sugar or tea. These addicted convicts, won’t need to rob and murder to sustain their chosen condition. Those in prison for possession, manufacture, sale or trafficking in drugs can be released. The Drug Lords, Drug Czars and such will be forced out of business in a single day. Selling drugs will have no better profits than selling tacos. We can still maintain ...

46,000 California Convicts Escape Justice! A Call to Arms!

Washington, DC —Today the U.S. Supreme Court ordered a massive release of California prisoners to relieve prison overcrowding. Prisoners had overstuffed the facilities creating a cruel and dangerous climate. Of course now the public will be at risk in the Golden State with an invasion of unemployable dangerous criminals. In a good economy these thugs would be hard-pressed to find gainful employment. We all know what they will do to make ends meet and it won’t be pretty. Burglaries, robberies and thefts are sure to skyrocket along with violence being directed at the victims that the thugs encounter along the way. Don’t be a victim, get trained and armed while you still can. You have much more that a right to keep and bear arms, but a duty to do so. It is you who must protect yourself and family. The police will never be able to deal with this wholesale criminal invasion. California’s unconstitutional gun bans must be ignored. Leftist politicians have played God with your life long ...

The Latest Ghetto Fad Is Massive Strong Armed Robbery

It’s happing in cities all over the United States. African-Americans gather as an army of robbers by texting or social media. They strike a store without warning and forcefully grab anything in sight. Often employees and customers are beaten during these crimes. These brazen crimes cannot be dealt with by ordinary police patrols. This will take citizens fighting back using whatever force is necessary to halt the crime. Anytime there is a disparity of force with multiple offenders the use of deadly force such as shooting, stabbing or clubbing them is justified in all 50 states. Should you happen to use deadly force hanging around and waiting for police is both dangerous and ill advised. Leave the area for your safety and don’t call or talk to police out of presence of a qualified criminal lawyer. You have no duty to do that and you also have an absolute right to remain silent. As these crimes go unpunished they will become even more common. If you see a group of young Afric...

California Highway Patrolwoman Arrested For Murder

Los Angeles, CA —In was nearly two years ago when CHP officer Tomiekia Johnson , 31 did the unthinkable. She shot and killed her husband, Marcus Lavar Lemons. The killing occurred in their car as the dead man fought with the off-duty CHP officer. Even if the dead suspect was unarmed the issue of disparity of force would allow this young woman to use a firearm to ward off an attack. This was originally treated as a justifiable killing but apparently something led to this arrest nearly two full years later. My guess is the LSAD investigators obtained some a statement or statements that provided evidence that the killing was a crime. Johnson has been a CHP officer for four years now and has been placed on administrative leave. Right now, the Sheriff’s department is not talking. Johnson is currently being held in the Woman’s Detention Center in Lynnwood on a $2 million bail requirement after her arrest at noon yesterday by the LSAD LASD-Surveillance Apprehension Team This is the type of...

An Exotic and Unusual Antique Gentleman’s Weapon

London, UK —The father of 007 spy James Bond undoubtedly had one of these fine products he could use to deal with those pesky foreign agents that go bump in the night. This walking stick was made in Germany. This darling little toy would put America’s gun hating politicians into a major seizure if they saw it.

Shooting With the Stars in Van Nuys, CA

Van Nuys, CA —Despite some of the worst gun laws in the nation people in L.A. still have access to firearms for self-defense. There is a conveniently located indoor range that is frequented by some surprising Hollywood celebrities that received their training and maintain their shooting skills at THE TARGET RANGE . If you own a firearm for personal protection, that’s only a small part of your needs. Training in efficient use of the weapon and the laws and liability of the justifiable use of deadly force is a must. There are two types of training you can receive, a civilian course or the more intense Security Firearms Program. The latter is the course mandated for security personal such as armored car drivers and bodyguards. I have always recommended the Security Firearms course for civilians too. The security Firearms course deals with safety, marksmanship, weapons-retention along with a good dose of law surrounding use of force with follow up written testing. This is really not a ...

Handguns and concealment methods

I have gotten requests for information on the best ways to carry handguns for both men and women. Let me begin by saying we come in different shapes and sizes. This is never a one size fits all solution. We have what we have and must work with it. I want to advise women against carrying firearms in purses. You may inadvertently arm a purse snatcher and too often women put their purses too close to children. There are great handbags for guns made by Galco Gunleather . They can be also locked if needed but it defeats the purpose of having a gun ready for immediate use. If you’re going to carry a gun in a purse I say use a Galco product with a shoulder strap. Keep the purse very close on your weak side of your body. It can work as a De facto shoulder holster if kept strictly under control. Galco handbags are as fashionable as you can find anywhere in the world. They are also better made than those by designers known for quality. For well-fed men and women there are lots of options. S...

Drop that Weapon!

Many people ask me how to deal with an in-progress violent crime. That is a crime were the offender is armed or the threatened force is overwhelming as in multiple assailants. This is not some movie or TV show but real life. Let me begin with words you can live by, “Conflict avoidance is always the best policy.” Many people look at this subject as repugnant because it involves violence and perhaps even killing. Too often people refuse see the opposite side of the picture where guns save many more innocent lives every day. I’m writing to protect human life from the most dangerous predators on earth, their fellow human beings. There are those who carry firearms for self-defense. Most thankfully live where the law allows that with or without special carry permits. There are also those who live in New York, California or Illinois that criminalize the carrying of self-defense weapons. The rules for the use of deadly force, are the same everywhere in the United States, and its posses...
