Seen at Legal Insurrection: I’m willing to die protecting my 2nd amendment rights. Are you willing to die trying to take them away from me? I really need one of those bumper stickers.

Protein Wisdom commenter McGehee: Academics have always thought they should be in charge. They fancy themselves philosophers, and who was it that first posited the philosopher-king? Too much tenure, not enough hemlock. In response to “Supporting the 2nd Amendment is a Mental Disorder Say Connected Physicians”
Good / Bad

The good news — one goblin down, one under arrest. A young Oklahoma mother shot and killed an intruder to protect her 3-month-old baby on New Year’s Eve, less than a week after the baby’s father died of cancer. Sarah McKinley says that a week earlier a man named Justin Martin dropped by on the [...]

I’ve owned and/or fired one version or another of every rifle that has been standard issue for the US Army since the 1870s. Of all this wide variety of rifles, without a doubt my favorite has been the M1A, the civilian version of the Army’s venerable M14 which, as you may already know, was replaced [...]
Range day: the aftermath
Russ | September 24, 2008
I really understand why the biathlon is an Olympic event. Racing from point A to point B, and then shooting accurately is hard.
