Oregon Women Fends Off Attacker with Handgun

 

Joe Biden and the Left (some recently in Colorado) have been spouting ridiculous tips to repel attackers–fire your double-gauge in the air, wet your pants, tell the perp it’s “that time of month.”

All of these bizarre and inane suggestions are made to avoid the one method of self-defense that actually works: concealed carry hand guns aimed, and if need be, fired to stop agressors.

Sunday night, March 31st, at 10:21 PM Pacific in Oregon City, Oregon, a 22 year old woman was attacked after having parked her car near the intersection of 8th St and JQ Adams St.

The male assailant approached the victim from behind, grabbed her ponytail, and drug her backwards until the young woman was able to grip her legally-owned, conceal carry handgun and turn it on the man, who fled on foot.

County Sheriffs Speak Out on the Second Amendment

"How will they register a magazine?"

                                                                                         
With an announcement of sweeping proposals to curb gun violence, Connecticut lawmakers said they are hoping to send a message to Congress and other state legislators across the country: A bipartisan agreement on gun control is possible. Legislative leaders on Monday revealed proposals spurred by the Dec. 14 Newtown school shooting following weeks of bipartisan, closed-door negotiations. A vote is expected Wednesday in the General Assembly, where Democrats control both chambers, making passage all but assured.

"Democrats and Republicans were able to come to an agreement on a strong, comprehensive bill," said Senate President Donald E. Williams Jr., a Democrat from Brooklyn, who called the proposed legislation the strongest, most comprehensive bill in the country. "That is a message that should resound in 49 other states and in Washington, D.C. And the message is: We can get it done here and they should get it done in their respective states and nationally in Congress."

The massacre reignited the gun debate in the country and led to calls for increased gun control legislation on the federal and state levels. While some other states, including neighboring New York, have strengthened their gun laws, momentum has stalled in Congress, whose members were urged by President Barack Obama last week not to forget the shooting and to capitalize on the best chance in years to stem gun violence.

After reading Seven Antibiotics to Stockpile and Why, readers have asked what dose of antibiotics to stockpile.  As a general rule, I suggest that you not request multiple strengths of a single medicine, as few if any doctors would agree to this.

Here are my recommendations for the most appropriate doses of common antibiotics to stockpile and why.

1.  Amoxicillin – Many pharmacies offer the 250 and 500 mg capsules at the same unit price.  Amoxicillin tablets are also available, but may cost somewhat more than the capsules, depending on the pharmacy.  Amoxicillin tablets may be split more easily (than the powder in the capsules can be divided) to provide a lower dose if needed for children or small adults.  (Babies are usually administered a reconstituted powder, but few pediatricians would prescribe this for stockpiling.) The best single option is amoxicillin 500 mg tablets (or capsules).

Medal of Honor Roll Call: Archie van Winkle

ARCHIE VAN WINKLE

Rank and organization: Staff Sergeant, U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, Company B, 1st Battalion, 7th Marines, 1st Marine Division (Rein.). Place and date: Vicinity of Sudong, Korea, 2 November 1950. Entered service at: Arlington, Wash. Born: 17 March 1925, Juneau, Alaska.
Citation:

For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty while serving as a platoon sergeant in Company B, in action against enemy aggressor forces. Immediately rallying the men in his area after a fanatical and numerically superior enemy force penetrated the center of the line under cover of darkness and pinned down the platoon with a devastating barrage of deadly automatic weapons and grenade fire, S/Sgt. Van Winkle boldly spearheaded a determined attack through withering fire against hostile frontal positions and, though he and all the others who charged with him were wounded, succeeded in enabling his platoon to gain the fire superiority and the opportunity to reorganize. 

Realizing that the left flank squad was isolated from the rest of the unit, he rushed through 40 yards of fierce enemy fire to reunite his troops despite an elbow wound which rendered 1 of his arms totally useless. Severely wounded a second time when a direct hit in the chest from a hostile hand grenade caused serious and painful wounds, he staunchly refused evacuation and continued to shout orders and words of encouragement to his depleted and battered platoon. Finally carried from his position unconscious from shock and from loss of blood, S/Sgt. Van Winkle served to inspire all who observed him to heroic efforts in successfully repulsing the enemy attack. His superb leadership, valiant fighting spirit, and unfaltering devotion to duty in the face of heavy odds reflect the highest credit upon himself and the U.S. Naval Service

St. Louis Anti-Gun Rally Becomes Rally To Cede US Sovereignty

 

Earlier today a bunch of well-heeled progressive women from the nice, safe part of Missouri rolled into crime-ridden St. Louis city to condescend to city residents and hold signs proclaiming “Moms Demand Action! For Gun Sense In America!” Because what mom doesn’t demand action for things, gun sense especially? These moms aren’t like those pro-Second Amendment moms, who apparently do not demand gun sense, whatever that’s supposed to mean.

St. Louis City Mayor Francis Slay stood onstage behind speaker Dr. Robert Flood, who remarked how the United States should cede sovereignty to the United Nations because they can deal better with gun crime. You know, the United Nations that has has as members of its security council top-rated countries like Rwanda and Pakistan who are famous for citizens’ safety.

Georgia Town Passes Law Requiring Gun Ownership

 

The law requires the head of every household to own a gun and ammo to “provide for the emergency management of the city” and “provide for and protect the safety, security and general welfare of the city and its inhabitants.”

The law is also meant to pre-empt any future attempt by the federal government to confiscate guns, according to the council’s agenda.

SWAT team breaks door, windows at wrong home

Via avordvet

  

Par for the course.

Our highly trained professionals at work.........

 A Pittsburgh woman is furious at police after the SWAT team knocked down her front door and shattered her windows while looking for a homicide suspect in the home next door to her.

"I feel violated," Carla Glover told WTAE.  "There's not even words  to describe what I was feeling."
Police were searching for a suspect in the early Saturday morning shooting death of 21-year-old Steven Lee Jr. of McKees Rocks.  Lee was killed after a fight on a "party bus" on Chartiers Avenue in Sheraden.

The SWAT team later surrounded a row of homes on Sutherland Street.  They were apparently looking for someone in Glover's neighbor's apartment, but home video from people who live nearby shows officers dropping chairs off of Glover's porch and standing in her broken down front door.  Her windows were also shattered.

Glover knew nothing about what was happening at her home until she received a call from police.
