Texas Church Shooting, Legally Armed Citizens, and Media Bias
Last week we saw another church shooting, this one at the West Freeway Church of Christ in the city of White Settlement, Texas. This incident was ended just six seconds after it began by an armed citizen volunteer of the church security team. Media coverage was predictable. Church shootings are an unfortunate reality in our society. There have been at …

The 2,000-year-old blog
As is my custom for nearly 15 years… And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto …
Should You Consider Concealed Carry?
While working an RSO shift at the range last week I had the opportunity to speak with two gentlemen on the subject of concealed carry.

Poway Resident Chris Cruse Questions Charitable Nature of Steve Vaus’ Carols By Candlelight
I think it’s safe to say that Poway activist Chris Cruse doesn’t care for Poway Mayor Steve Vaus. In 2009, when Vaus spearheaded the recall effort of Council Member Betty Rexford, Cruse suggested that he was leveraging his “Carols By Candlelight” website to promote his political campaign for Council: “The website stevevaus.com has a link to recallrexford.com. And Poway resident …
Progress in the Fight to End Gun Free Zones
Clear thinking Americans understand that the vast majority of gun control laws in place are completely ineffective regarding their stated purpose. That stated purpose is always to increase public safety and reduce crime. Many of these laws actually endanger the public. Most are unconstitutional in that they clearly “infringe” on our rights. Among the most dangerous of these laws are …

Reconsidering SCOTUS in the Fight for the Second Amendment
In 2017 I wrote an article questioning the wisdom of depending on the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) to protect the Second Amendment (2A) and the rights of gun owners in America. Over time there seemed to be too many instances where SCOTUS declined to hear a 2A case or when they did, the ruling seemed too weak. …
Hunter’s Delayed Resignation Silences Voice of the 50th District for Too Long
Carl DeMaio is blasting Rep. Duncan Hunter’s decision to delay his resignation from Congress – noting that the delayed timing is an intentional effort to manipulate the election timetable to prevent a Special Election to fill the Congressional District.

Why Tulsi Gabbard Is The Greatest Presidential Candidate For Whom I Will Never Vote
I admire Tulsi Gabbard. I won’t vote for her; her ideas about government’s relationship to the economy and individual economic choices are statist but I love her non-interventionist message. (Inlookers might look at my first post on San Diego Rostra, and read from there). I admire that she isn’t afraid to be a guest on Tucker Carlson or go on …
Sweet Virginia Under Siege by Anti-Gun Forces – Citizens Fight Back
Funded by multimillionaire leftists, anti-gun forces have swept the elections and seized control of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Michael Bloomberg and others poured an inordinate amount of money into the Virginia elections and were able to elect an anti-gun Governor and create a legislature dominated by anti-gun politicians.
