FINDLAY, OH – Last October Marquese Robbins and a couple of his friends dropped by the Route 66 Bar and Grill in Toledo, OH, hoping to make some cash by selling marijuana to the other patrons (video below). When bar employees saw Robbins with a bag of weed in his hand they told him to [...]

Remember the Bushwackers!
JACKSON, WI – Who are the Bushwackers you ask? Here’s the Wiki overview: Missouri’s bushwhacker squads were self-organized groups of young men, predominantly from the slave holding counties along the Missouri and Mississippi rivers, who took it upon themselves to attack Federal forces and their Unionist neighbors, both in Kansas and Missouri, the latter in [...]
Hubristic Man Claims the Authority to Violate the Rights of Others
JACKSON, WI – A couple of days ago a man in a black dress stated that people who live in the 68.3 square miles known as Washington D.C. that want to keep a firearm in their residence to protect themselves and their family have to jump through hoops he and his ilk set. Ask yourself what [...]
Santa Fe PD Demand ID for Open Carrying
SANTA FE, NM – Check out the post below, the latest from the good folks over at CopBlock.org. I encourage you to get involved with them if you’re not already, whether that be by gleaning information and tactics, calling police departments to voice concern about police acting outside the law or by submitting content.

Detective Advocates Shooting Law-Abiding Individuals Who Open Carry
ARLINGTON, VA – Yesterday I was invited to join the Facebook group “America’s Gun Owners Say Fire Det. Rod Tuason” created by John Taylor (which has grown from 50 members to 3,500 since Friday). Why? Because of comments left by East Palo Alto Police Department Det. Tuason on a friends Facebook status about individuals open [...]
My One Year Anniversary
ARLINGTON, VA – Tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of when I was followed and intimidated by someone who claims to protect me. I obviously wasn’t a fan of being coerced and spoke up against the tactics this person employed. Fortunately I was able to record the encounter and recently decided to rip, rebrand and tweak [...]
LOG’s Randy Blythe to San Diego Cops: You Are Not My God
ARLINGTON, VA – Ever had your rights violated by someone with a badge? Well, due to one such encounter the guys in Lamb of God (a band I’ve touched on here many times) wrote the song O.D.H.G.A.B.F.E. or, Office Dick Head Gets a Black Fucking Eye. According to Wiki: This song was written about an [...]
Should Gun Owners Be Nervous?
With 1,500 stories already written about two crazy guys picked up for supposedly planning to kill Obama and others based on solely on their race (though authorities admit they had outlined no definite plot), this story has garnered lots of media attention. I fear gun control advocates, partnered with those in the ATF seeking to [...]
ATF Fails Internal Audit
A Department of Justice audit called the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives oversight of its weapons and laptops “inadequate” after 76 firearms and 418 laptops went unaccounted for. And many of those lost items were never reported as instructed per procedure. In what’s become the norm for government agencies, there has been no [...]
The Scary (But Motivating) Implications of Unintended Consequences
As I recently noted I was re-reading one of my favorite books, Unintended Consequences, by John Ross. I describe it to folks as Atlas Shrugged for gun rights (replacing Objectivism for libertarianism) and, at least for me, it forces one to ask themselves, “How far is too far?” It’s a book that mixes factual events [...]
