Detroiters defending themselves from criminals are supported by LEOs

It is good to hear that folks in Detroit are defending themselves from local knuckleheads. It saddens me that that once great city has deteriorated into such a bad spot; at least those citizens that have decided to stay are making it known that acts of crime against them will not be tolerated. Way to go Detroit Police Chief James Craig! We appreciate your willingness to encourage folks to defend themselves. Said officer Jennifer Moreno,”We’ve been very supportive of citizens that are arming themselves. They are law-abiding citizens. These are the ones who are in their domain and inside their homes, and if you can’t have peace at home, where can you?”  Have you ever had to defend yourself or others from crime and a gun made the difference? Comments or thoughts?  ( link: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/10/detroit-homeowner-shooting-intruder_n_5128271.html)

SHTF Weapon(s) of Choice

So, the balloon has gone up and you are not prepared as well as you would have liked to have been… things look grim about 200 miles away and problems may be headed in your direction. What weapon(s) would you depend on to protect you and yours? Here is the caveat: you only have 1000 dollars to spend.

Freedom and Guns go hand in hand

Imagine for a moment… if we as American citizens had no access to firearms, what would our lives be like? Perish the thought! Thankfully, that idea has not become reality-yet. Men like my grandfather, three brothers, 3 uncles, and many dear friends served in our armed services, so we could continue to hold on to our 2nd amendment rights. Let it be known that you (and those who served along side you) are appreciated tremendously. While at a local gun show today, I had the pleasure of speaking with a gentleman that was displaying all types of World War II memorabilia. He and I agreed that the soldiers who sacrificed and fought for the U.S. are the primary reason we don’t salute a different flag today.
