Larry Correia has some remarks — and worth the read — regarding, well, not being a victim of monsters.

I like the remarks about arming teachers, and it aligns completely with what I’ve been saying for years (and years and years):

“Don’t make it mandatory. In my experience, the only people who are worth a darn with a gun are the ones who wish to take responsibility and carry a gun. Make it voluntary. It is rather simple. Just make it so that your state’s concealed weapons laws trump the Federal Gun Free School Zones act. All that means is that teachers who voluntarily decide to get a concealed weapons permit are capable of carrying their guns at work. Easy. Simple. Cheap. Available now.”

Elimination of the Criminal Safe Zone is the solution.

Congresscritter S. Jackson Lee (D, TX*) says we should turn ’em in.

I’ve got an idea! Let’s compromise! We’ll keep our guns and you can bugger off.

Sounds like a hell of a good deal to me.

* How did that happen anyway?

Color me surprised: my manager announced to me quietly this morning, that he bought his first pistol just last Friday: a S&W M&P9.

But it gets better:

Another manager at the office shared privately that he, too, has purchased his first pistol — a Gen 4 G17.

A two-fer!

Congratulations, guys!

Please be sure to read, understand, and follow The Four Rules at all times. They are never negotiable and there are never excuses for violating them.

The first photo on this page sums it up — people aren’t buying these things so they can just turn them in later.

The second photo should cause concern for you–that anyone under 18 can’t buy an eating utensil.

The other day, when the NRA broke radio silence and said they’re prepared to make meaningful contributions, what did they mean?

“The NRA is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again.”

I sure do hope that what they really mean is that they want to contribute effective procedures to train and educate the citizenry on the history, use, and necessity of personal arms and to campaign to permanently eliminate the concepts and existence of the Criminal Safe Zones in America.

That would be meaningful.

At any rate, we’ll find out more tomorrow.

In the interim, I’d also like to point out that our mayors, governors, senators and congresspeople, president and vice president, money and banks are all protected by people with guns. So why is the citizenry not protected by them?

That was rhetorical. We already know why they want to be the only ones with weaponry.
