Firearms Instructor Quits After Shooting Himself During Class If you’re teaching a course that has anything to do with firearms, perhaps you shouldn’t shoot yourself while teaching. The firearms instructor (who also happens to be a police chief) “voluntarily” quit after the incident. What’s next? The sexual harassment instructor pinching a coworker in [...]

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Federal agents have raided an armory owned by security contractor Blackwater Worldwide.
The North Carolina-based company said the raid was part of an investigation into a deal that allowed a local sheriff's office to store high-powered assault rifles at the company's armory at its headquarters in Moyock.
Blackwater spokeswoman Anne Tyrrell sa

One of the odd things about target shooting administration in Ireland is that there aren’t many people in it. Most of the shooters want to, well, shoot. Meaning that about 2% of the people do 98% of the work involved in running matches, keeping clubs going, meeting the Powers That Be and so forth - [...]
The Indonesian Police have confiscated Molotov cocktails, self-made firearms and bullets as well as sharp weapons from a students' dormitory in South Sulawesi, an officer said Wednesday. "We are still questioning 20 students on the case but possibly the weapons are to be used in brawls," Detective Adj. Comr. Muhammad Nur Akbar was quoted in major newspaper The Jakarta Post's website as saying. Police found three Molotov cocktails, three self-made firearms and dozens of swords, machetes and arrows from a boarding house on Cokonuri Street in the provincial capital, Makassar during a raid late on Tuesday. The students have yet to be named as suspects but they can be charged with the 1951 emergency law on firearms, punishable to at least five years in prison.Indonesia News Blog:

What about the Second Amendment?
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
For some reason this amendment has been a source of controversy for many years. I really can't imagine why. As with anything our founding fathers wrote, they left us proof that tell us how they wanted us to proceed and what exactly they meant.
To begin with, I think the militia part of this amendment was the after thought, not the people. To me it is clear that our founding fathers expected the people to have firearms but wanted to make sure that a militia could be formed by the people. You have to remember that King George didn’t allow militias. He did however allow firearms in times of peace. It wasn’t until the colonialists began to rise up that George began to take firearms away.
A militia is simply a citizen army; a military organization formed by local citizens to serve in times of emergencies wh
I always have to laugh when I hear people describe anarchists as violent. I’ve been very much anti-gun since late in my high school years. That doesn’t mean I’m, in any way, pro-gun control, just that I don’t personally like guns. I believe, absolutely, in every person’s right to defend themselves, their family, and their property. If they feel that defense requires a firearm then I’m all for it. But, despite my personal feelings, I’ve been thinking of training Z to shoot. The first step may well come with the gift of one of Pyramyd Air’s airsoft guns.
I’m currently leaning towards the Clear Walther P22 Special Operations. This is a clear 6mm pistol that fires plastic BBs. Although it’s spring loaded it mimics an actual pistol fairly well, including that it has a 20 round clip and a safety. It’s also very reasonably priced, and I was always a fan of Walther’s before I decided that guns and I should not re
We're three weeks into the school year and we're back on schedules, well-ordered and in a good groove that I hope lasts until December. Life is good.Lillian had her first day of kindergarten. How did it go? Well as we drove up to the school she informed (not asked, informed) me that I need not accompany her into the school. "I can go by myself Mom," she said.When I explained that at least for the first day the teachers wanted parents to go with their children into the school she sighed and said, "Okay but can you wait at the end of the hall?"No, I had to go all the way with her into the classroom so she shrugged and allowed me to be present. I asked her that afternoon if she'd made any friends and she said that she "had indeed made some friends" (that's her new word: indeed--she sounds like she's a BBC announcer) but couldn't come up with any names to prove it.I later saw the class list and it's no wonder, there aren't more than two or three traditional names in the group,
