Biden won’t let Obama take his guns – or ours

By Steve McGough / September 20, 2008 /

My first thought when I heard about Biden’s statement concerning firearm ownership was – I’ll bet my last dollar he was not in San Fransisco, Seattle, Chicago or New York. No way. Biden stated, “I guarantee you Barack Obama ain’t taking my shotguns, so don’t buy that malarkey.” Biden spoke at the United Mine Workers…

Wading in… The open carry verses concealed carry argument

By Steve McGough / August 9, 2012 /

In the past, I have avoided the concealed carry versus open carry discussion simply because the final call is dependent on the law where you are and personal preference, but we can wade into it all right here. More than a year ago, I found a post in the US Carry forum by contributor Mainsail.…

New York Times totally screws up gun statistics – anti-gun agenda on display

By Steve McGough / December 27, 2011 /

This totally ticks me off. This bastard at the New York Times – Michael Luo – should be fired immediately for creating a totally false news story. Of course, I don’t expect the Times to do a damn thing about this mis-characterization of concealed weapon permit holders, it’s par for the course. Regarding carry permits,…

N.J. Democrat: How about $500 per year to exercise 2nd Amendment rights?

By Steve McGough / September 29, 2010 /

Pathetic. Disturbing. Unreal. It’s already totally unacceptable the state of New Jersey severely restricts residents concerning their 2nd Amendment rights, but now a New Jersey state legislator suggests – for $500 per year – the state would reconsider their opinion. They think they can generate tax revenue through the scheme.

Department of Interior updates regulations to allow concealed carry

By Steve McGough / December 9, 2008 /

I wrote this post for Radio Vice Online, and am crossposting here. … Maybe we should include a feature called “Second Amendment Tuesday” here on the blog and the radio show. There are quite a few stories that have popped up during the last couple of weeks concerning boisterous buying at our local Second Amendment…

Disclose names and addresses of gun permit holders in Connecticut? Hell No (Update)

By Steve McGough / January 4, 2013 /

I’m not putting up with this. Already wrote a post on the subject in September 1, 2010 so I’m just going to copy and paste. I texted Jim that I did not want to do any more gun posts … but here I go again.

Two 2nd Amendment cases provide right-to-carry victories in Maryland and Colorado

By Steve McGough / March 6, 2012 /

In Woollard v. Sheridan, a Maryland judge ruled the plaintiff did not have to prove “good and substantial reason” to carry. In Students for Concealed Carry on Campus v. Regents the state Supreme Court unanimously ruled Colorado’s 2003 Concealed Carry Act entirely preempts the University of Colorado’s power to prohibit licensed carry.

Yes, you can open carry a pistol in Connecticut

By Steve McGough / September 3, 2010 /

And you can responsibly carry a pistol in a bar that serves alcohol, and you can even carry your firearm on college campuses. I thought most of the misconceptions concerning Connecticut state law when it comes to permits and carrying handguns had been squashed, yet some continue to put totally false garbage out there.

DC Deputy Mayor: Just give them what they want and hope, pray they don’t kill you

By Steve McGough / March 6, 2012 /

The stupid is strong with this one. Washington D.C. Deputy Mayor Paul Quander lets residents know if you’re robbed, you should just give in to the demands so you can walk away and live. The problem is, you don’t always walk away.

David Brock’s assistant carried concealed pistol to “protect” him in Washington, D.C.

By Dave in EH / February 17, 2012 /

Do as we say, not as we do. Apparently, is the credo of David Brock over at Media Matters when it comes to carrying a pistol for self-defense.
