    "SALT LAKE CITY • A Utah elementary school teacher who was carrying a concealed firearm at work accidentally shot herself in the leg when the weapon discharged in a faculty bathroom shortly before class Thursday morning, officials said. Granite School District spokesman Ben Horsley said...

    SOMEBODY FINALLY "GETS IT"! Want crime to drop? Start carrying..

    The following is excerpts from an online news article, regarding the attitude of Detroit, Michigan's Police Chief, James Craig. If ALL the heads of LEAs felt this way, the quality of life... and the reverence thereto, would increase substantially! But then here, I'm "preaching to the choir". Pax...

    Making guns safer by making safer guns?

    It could work... here's an excerpt from gizmag.com: All you need is a new (probably very expensive) handgun, and a new (also probably very expensive) wristwatch, and you're in business. I'll go out on a limb here, and assume that there is a receiving unit somewhere in the gun, and unless it is...

    Colorado Shooting

    I find it both interesting - and disturbing - that there have been inordinate number (TWENTY) of mass shootings since you elected Barack Hussein Obama as your "president". If you believe in "coincidence" then you can explain it away. However, if you believe that somewhere there is a cause...

    Schumer would force all states to ban texting while driving

    You reside in a really weird state, ccj. Here's what NJ State law says, "Driving is a privilege, not a right." (Chapter 7 - emphasis added), but, on the other hand, nowhere in the NJSA (that I could find) does it specify that you must have a license to drive (if you have had one somewhere at...

    Not specifically an OC article, but an FYI we might all be interested in...

    Fair use applies: (Complete article at http://www.wnd.com/2013/12/judge-says-waiting-period-burdens-2nd-amendment/#9uQTykqhTKh2ejeL.99) This is a step in the right direction. As I recall from my days stationed in San Diego, Kalifornia has had this waiting period for around a half-century. It's...

    "Inappropriate Response for OCDO"

    "Inappropriate Response for OCDO" is, itself, an inappropriate response. Most of us are not mind-readers, therefore the person who made the post is, in many cases if not most, unaware of what made the response/post "inappropriate". We learn absolutely nothing from the phrase "Inappropriate...

    Local Nut-Job Planned to "kill as many people as possible" in shooting rampage

    Local Nut-Job Planned to "kill as many people as possible" in shooting rampage His plan was to shoot up a movie theater, shopping centers, and blowing up a bus or metro train just as it crossed under an overpass... TOMORROW! His plan could have been thwarted by one armed citizen. However, the...

    Poll at the LA Times: Do you support Starbucks' Gun Stance?

    Based on the poll results, announcing such a position is not a particularly good business choice. Had they stayed with their original position (applicable states laws), their stance could not be interpreted as anti-OC/2A, and their explanation to the anti's would be based upon law, as opposed to...

    shooting low with full size guns

    Walking Wolf has a good idea with the RIA 1911. RIA has a good reputation, and seem to build a reliable pistol. Here's another thought about the RIA - the 22 TCM Standard/MicroMag Series 9mm. The 22TCM centerfire is a "convertible" - a centerfire .22TCM cartridge (which at 2,000+ fps has been...

    Man Follows Biden's Advice, Gets Charged By Police and Rifle Confiscated

    The news story goes, that Joe Biden once said: For details: http://politicaloutcast.com/2013/05/man-takes-bidens-warning-shot-advice-and-has-his-guns-confiscated/#ixzz2UtUEXH63 I guess Biden forgot to mention the "Upon arrival, the police will promptly charge you with a crime" part. Here's...

    The Republic

    Recently it has been said, and seconded, that "The republic has become an enemy of freedom." Reminds me of a Pogo Possum cartoon from 1951: WE are the "Republic"! WE have allowed the government of the Republic to be co-opted by those we elected to represent our interests in Washington D.C. The...

    DHS is "protecting us"? If you believe that, check this out...

    Although not specifically related to OC, this is a news item and a political alert. Julia Davis is a former DHS border supervisor - turned whistleblower - and she and her husband were immediately labeled "domestic terrorists" by Big Sis and her evil minions for having done her job. Some of you...

    DHS training video

    The "rest of it"? I have no idea where the rest of it is - perhaps it's in Napolitano's desk drawer - but, here's where you can find another part of it. What difference does it make if it's a 90 second excerpt or a 2-hour feature length film? It set's the tone for how DHS wants American citizens...

    LATEST GUN CONTROL POLL RESULTS (as of 5pm, 4/25)

    Here's the latest gun control poll results from NewsMax.com... What I find interesting is that all gun buyers (thru dealers) are required to have a background check. However, those who do the checks sometimes default on their responsibility, rarely check mental health history (blame that...

    New Backdoor to Gun Control - Federally Mandated "Firearms Liability Insurance" A blurb just received from the Daily Caller - This places an unreasonable financial burden upon future gun owners, for a couple of obvious reasons. 1. It's simply another means of infringement, and 2. Some people...
