Please explain Girls Heart Guns, if you’re reading. I just don’t know what open carry jewelry is. Is open carry jewelry something like a full-size, non-functioning Colt Lawman Mark III replica in antiqued pewter, worn like a heavy necklace? Or, do you shock them with a jewel-handled Smith clipped to your jeans belt? Oh, now I think I get it.

Among the Partisans: Heroic Brad Krause, West Allis, Wisconsin |
Tuesday, August 24th, 2010 |
Wisconsin promotes its wonderland of lakes and woods, urging the nearby Chicagoan to “Escape to Wisconsin!” which he does by the thousands on weekends. However, after linking up with the courageous partisan resistance forces storming Marxist-occupied Madison, I successfully escaped and evaded from Wisconsin, leaving tactically by a different route than I entered, skirting to the east, and returned to friendly lines through West Allis, Wisconsin, a suburb of Milwaukee. Here, gun owners find a beleaguered friend indeed in Brad Krause. (more…)

Does the 14th Amendment Protect Zombies From Warrantless Arrest? |
Monday, August 23rd, 2010 |
I argue that the zombies arrested by Minneapolis police were entitled to no damages. (Minneapolis settled their civil rights suit for 6 figures.) This is because zombies are not “persons” and, therefore, have no constitutional rights.
Of course you can make a good argument that zombies are “persons.” My evidence of their personhood is considerable. Zombies get welfare, rent assistance and food stamps. They routinely invade emergency rooms and make nuisance 911 calls when their children are dizzy from playing on the merry-go-round. They have “title IX cards.” They vote–multiple times. It could be argued that the rest of us are serfs and the zombies have all the rights.
Also, you can argue that a zombie is a person because a zombie has a heart.
So are zombies persons, protected by the 14th amendment? I don’t know but the more interesting question is this: What are these zombies going to do when the economy collapses and no one is there enabling their zombie-ism?
Now, a serious comment: In the regulated, legislated, litigated rights-obsessed autocratic state, people have less freedom. It may have been kinky and disgusting to dress up and act like zombies to express your unhappiness about something, but in a free society, being eccentric would not be a crime. In the autocratic society, any behavior just slightly outside what is considered to be “orderly” attracts the attention of the police. The individual policeman is worried that something more sinister than just weird is about to go down. However, he also has the sense that he is empowered by the state to compel institutionally approved behavior, and to punish anyone not behaving himself.
Keep your head down, your voice quiet, pay your taxes, mow your yard, and do not leave your garbage cans out on the sidewalk after the deadline. If you just MUST own a gun (Really, what is wrong with you?) then just keep it locked up, indoors, and do NOT be seen in public with it.
Of course, if you are zombie, just do whatever you want.

Big Brother Plays Catch-22 With “May Issue” |
Monday, August 23rd, 2010 |
Mr. Woollard ran into Big Brother–in the form of the Maryland State Police exercising statutory discretion under the state’s “may issue” handgun carry permit law–and Mr. Woollard isn’t taking it. You can see a copy of the Complaint filed by Second Amendment Foundation’s Alan Gura here.
The State Police won’t renew his permit because he has not been attacked again, raising the curious question about just how frequently and violently must one be attacked to get a renewed permit. Woollard shook his head in disbelief and explained, ” The agency said it was ‘because I hadn’t been attacked’ again. They said, ‘If you have any problems, you let us know.’ ”
“May issue” discretion is a return to the feudal period, where lords ruled absolutely through minions. Monarchy and feudalism brought about the Magna Carta, a series of revolutions in England, and, eventually, the American Revolution, carving out a place where people could breathe in freedom. Since we are back to feudalism now, maybe we need to start the whole revolution thing again. Well, for now, let’s see how this experiment in government by, of and for the people plays out on the stage of gun control.
For now, we need to storm state and municipal governments all over the country with good citizen suits, brought before any arrest for illegal carry, brought on the basis of having “standing” to sue because you are deprived of a constitutional right within those little fiefdoms. Having just returned from my link-up with the hearty partisans resisting Marxist-occupied Madison, Wisconsin, and having to escape and evade through Chicago, this is close to home. Hey, Second Amendment Foundation, I volunteer to be a plaintiff!

The Lockerbie Bomber: Why Is He Still Alive? |
Friday, August 20th, 2010 |
I don’t mean, “How is the now-free Lockerbie bomber‘s supposedly immediately terminal cancer progressing?” I mean: “Why has no American hit team already reported back ‘Mission accomplished.’?”
Newsflash Kenny MacAskill and Doctor Pessimistic: Telling us you followed procedure doesn’t help.

Great Gun Stores of America: Lauritzens Sport Shop |
Thursday, August 19th, 2010 |
Reporting again live from Marxist-occupied Wisconsin where the brave resistance forces are about to overturn years of heavy-handed rule by anti-gun state politicians, led by the Democrat governor, Jim Doyle. I am embedded with local partisans (well, hanging around with my brother-in-law) who introduced me to one of their chief armorers. Today, I am blogging about one of America’s great guns stores: Lauritzens Sport Shop.
Refugees from enemy-controlled Madison escape and evade about 70 miles north to the innocuous hunting and fishing paradise name Wild Rose. Here, lured in by Lauritzens’ gas station / convenience store front operation, they go in to pay and discover guns and guys who like guns. The shocked urbanites immediately know his because right inside the door, they find copies of the hilarious CD “I Like Guns” by Australian Steve Lee, for sale. (The Lauritzens know Steve.)

What’s Wrong With Open Carry? An Embed’s Report From Inside Occupied Wisconsin–an Open Carry State |
Wednesday, August 18th, 2010 |
No one does it, that’s what’s wrong.
Here I am, blogging from open carry but Marxist-occupied Wisconsin. Yesterday, I linked up with local free partisans (found in the largely rural areas outside of Madison and Milwaukee) who infiltrated me right into the Marxists’ capital, Madison. We ate brats, drank beer, and wore sandals. I think we mixed right in even though we lacked that sociology professor look. I kept my southern mouth shut and we pulled it off, successfully entering and leaving their lines, plainly marked by “Co-exist” bumper stickers. They seemed oblivious to what the rest of Wisconsin is about to do to them in November. This is going to be hilarious.
But, I saw no one carrying a gun. Why not? Wisconsin is an open carry state. (more…)

Home Invasion As Combat Operation |
Tuesday, August 17th, 2010 |
Home invaders are learning and refining their tactics. Only a few weeks ago, a few miles from MJM, one gun owner shot and killed two invaders. The lesson we would like for the rest of them to learn is that home invasion robbery in a gun-owner city is a dangerous occupation.
But, these five masked men in black, also only a few miles from MJM, learned a different lesson from the fate of their two brothers-in-crime now cold in the grave. Why don’t you read this scary story first, and then, let’s talk tactics below. (more…)

Report From Underground Wisconsin |
Monday, August 16th, 2010 |
Your Scott Walker (R) quizzed last night by brother-in-law builder, trapper, hunter, fisherman and generally over-taxed entrepreneur. Governor Walker would sign the handgun carry permit bill vetoed by the soon to be ex-Governor (D) Doyle.
The fields and woods of this state are brimming with conservative gun-owners and the pantywaist commies are holing up in the capitol and wondering where they will run to. More to follow.

Eyes On Wisconsin |
Friday, August 13th, 2010 |
They hunt. A lot. They shoot. They own many guns. Truck seats are covered in Realtree. Wisconsin–where there is still no right to concealed carry–is a state for the rest of us to watch. They struggle against the communists who run Madison’s state government. But, hey, you guys up there in the godforsaken frozen wastelands, this could be your year! I’m up here now, reporting live from a bastion of handgun carry bans, and I like what I’m hearing.
Your senate race with Russ Feingold. What interesting ads. I’m not advancing any candidate but here is what I take heart in: Your candidates find it necessary to brag about where they are on the Second Amendment. Democrat Feingold is running ads as the Second Amendment guy. The online Progressive is beside itself calling Feingold the Tea Party candidate, which I guess, is their ultimate insult.
Wisconsin’s races reinforce what we are seeing elsewhere: the right to keep and bear arms grows stronger.
