Bullet Pen

I got a great early Christmas present from my wife - it's a pen made from two .308 Winchester cases. Talk about a "tactical" pen! The best part is that part of the price from each pen sold goes directly to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, which gives scholarships to kids whose parents have died on Special Ops missions.

For more information, check out "Junior's Bullet Pens." I was surprised how reasonably priced they are - on sale for just $17! They even have wooden pens in all kinds of hardwoods if brass really isn't your thing. If you don't need a pen, you can still visit the SOWF website and make a donation to them if you'd like to. My boss, Pat, has been supporting them for years and speaks very highly of the charity.

Hero Facing Possible Charges

Just to show you how insane New York City has become, a heroic school safety agent who picked up a fallen police officer's gun and defended the officer and others in the store from 5 criminals, exchanging gun fire and driving them off, is facing possible gun charges because he is not licensed to carry a gun. Liberals want us to be just like Europe. Well, they're accomplishing it. This is just like the United Kingdom, where defending yourself against armed criminals can get you in trouble with the law.

This kind of reaction from the authorities only exacerbates the problem of people who just walk on by others in need. In New York City, the brave hero might find him or herself in legal trouble for doing the right thing. Shame on the people of New York City for allowing their elected officials to strip them of their God-given rights. Shame on all of us if we allow it to happen where we live.

The Pink Equalizer

How does a 25 year old, 110 pound beauty queen defend herself against a burly, 42 year old career criminal? She uses a .38 caliber pink equalizer. Her fiance said she wasn't a very good shot at the range, but apparently she was good enough to stop the bad guy after he invaded their home, dragged her upstairs and beat up her fiance who tried to defend her. That gave her time to retrieve her pink equalizer and defend them from this monster.
Good girl. Now go back to the range and get some more practice!

A Salute To A Hero

At 84 years old, WWII hero Ted Gundy is still one of the best in the world. This is an amazing, touching video.

A True Hero

When the horrible shooting in Tuscon happened, an armed citizen, Joe Zamudio, was next door in Walgreens. Here is the story in his words:

Note that without special military or police training, he was able to rapidly assess the situation and took the appropriate action. Even though he was momentarily confused about who the real shooter was, he didn't shoot the wrong person; in fact, he didn't even draw. Mr. Zamudio is a true American hero. He proves that an average citizen, carrying a concealed weapon, can make the right decision and make a difference within precious seconds, even though the police are only minutes away.
