    Pending legislation

    The Legislation session ended last spring. The bill never got out of committee. Any legislator can write any bill he or she wants, but many get killed in committee and never see the light of day. AZ still has a Republican majority in the Legislature, and is ranked #1 nationally for gun rights...

    Denny's Prescott Valley change of heart

    The Denny's in Prescott Valley had a 'no firearms' sign for years. I haven't been in there for quite some time. This week I learned that they changed their tune. They have a 6" x 12" laminated sign on their door, stating that they "Support your 2nd Amendment Rights" and asked patrons to follow...

    More disinformation from the "free press" on AZ gun laws

    Found this article on line while researching gun control in the Old West. It was originally written by an LA Times writer, but picked up by the Seattle Times, Washington Times, as well as many blogs and other papers. It is obviously a hit piece, rather than objective journalism. Of interest is...

    Disappointed by California LEO friends--thought I'd share

    I wrote the following letter after the Supreme Court decision in Chicago vs. McDonald. I emailed it to over 20 law enforcement acquaintances in California, including two L.A.

    States that allow drinking while armed

    I know that Utah allows for consuming alcohol while armed, and uses the DUI (0.08% BAC) limit for 'impairment' purposes. What other states allow for drinking in public establishments while armed? What criteria do they use for 'obviously intoxicated' or 'impaired' , if any? Do they have CC only...

    SB 1070 and California's Gun Free School Zones

    Since a federal judge ruled in AZ that our SB 1070 (Illegal Immigration Enforcement Law) infringed on the government's law, why doesn't someone in CA sue against your GFSZ law, saying it infringes on the federal law? Either way, one of us wins. Either CA has to drop GFSZ, or AZ is allowed to...

    Fundamental Rights and the ARS

    So, as some of you might know, a District Attorney in WI has unilaterally decided to no longer accept charges for a host of gun law violations, since the SCOTUS has declared that the RTKBA is a Fundamental Right. Of the laws he will not enforce, they include the 'guns in bars' law of WI. With...

    HB 2339

    imported post As I read AZ HB 2339, it will allow members of the AZ State Militia (all citizens 18-45) to purchase 100 rounds of the same caliber ammo per self and eligible dependants and write the purchase off on their state taxes. I guess this is AZ's way of providing for the arming of their...

    Jon Kyle and McCain voted for Holder as AG

    imported post As AZ residents, we needt to voice our disappointment to both our Senators at their caving in on a rabid anti-2A Attorney General. I know McCain is a lost cause, and he might not even run again, but he tends to reign himself in when he's called on the rug, or thinks people are...
