We Defend Your Right to Defend Yourself
Alec Baldwin, a volatile and rabidly anti-gun actor, can now add "indicted" to his resume list after a grand jury in Santa Fe, NM indicted him today on felony involuntary manslaughter charges. If convicted, he will lose his ability to (legally) touch a gun for the rest of his life,…
Governor Pritzker’s so-called Protect Illinois Communities Act required existing owners register their defensive semi-auto, magazine-fed rifles and other defensive firearms by December 31st. Given the non-compliance rate of 99%, clearly there are potentially millions of banned guns out there still unregistered. Got one? Will police knock on your door? That’s…
Years ago in the BC era (before children), I had a lot more time to devote to pulling the triggers in training, practice and recreation. Pretty sure I’m not the first firearm aficionado to suffer from this malady. Back when I lived and worked in Champaign as an unmarried guy,…
Radical Democrats in Springfield are pushing for "all vote by mail" elections in the Land of Lincoln. SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WAND) — Illinois could become the next state to adopt universal vote-by-mail. State lawmakers and advocates think this change could improve voting access and relieve stress for election officials. A proposal in Springfield…
So I got a call Wednesday morning. "We need FOID cardholders to vote their guns!" was the message. Well, no kidding. Problem is that most "normal people" in Illinois think their votes don't count. Between election integrity concerns (that's spelled mail-in ballot fraud), gerrymandering, and the Dem Machine politics, plenty…
Col. Mark Hurley (USAF, Retired - you can call him "Colonel") has given a couple of great presentations on Artificial Intelligence (AI) at GSL meetings in the past couple of months. Hurley's a brilliant guy and distills AI down to a "tool" that can be used for good, bad or…
Chicago's illustrious (incompetent) Mayor "Let's Go Brandon" Johnson is having serious anxiety issues over his utter incompetent failure as Murder City USA's new-ish mayor. He's been making good use of the gold-plated health insurance the mayor gets by checking himself into the hospital for anxiety attacks. Does that mean he's…
Todd Vandermyde, the Illinois gun law guru, hits a home run mocking our rather portly governor. "What was that you said, Governor?" is the title of the video. Todd savages Mr. "All you can eat buffet" expert JB Pritzker in his remarks from a year ago that police will enforce…
OK, this is just a story pointing out “Dumb.” Not surprisingly, it originates in Washington D.C. I think I am still allowed to point out dumb...but it may be socially/politically incorrect to do so. How about "Ideal Challenged?"I don’t know if anyone else has noticed America is currently suffering through…
News of Gov. Pritzker's plans for future confiscation of PICA-regulated guns continued to spread throughout media and on social media. We all know that gun confiscation typically follows gun registration schemes. That's one reason for the very low, 1% compliance rate with the gun registry. As a side note, I'm…
