    Campus Police Shoot Gunman at North Carolina University

    What is going on? If this guy wanted to hurt somebody, they would have been dead long before campus police showed up. Sounds like an OCer, who got a taste of mass paranoia/mind control, to me...

    Boy, when it rains it really pours... I was stopped about Open Carrying, for the very first time today, in Ventura. Apparently, the local police received MULTIPLE phone calls regarding my Open Carrying, despite my keeping to myself and otherwise being quite inconspicuous. Things got a little...

    Novice Open Carry in Ventura Passes Muster

    imported post I've been protesting A.B. 1934, in Ventura CA, for the past three days: by open carrying on the streets. So far, I've been to Barnes & Noble, Trader Joes, and other local stores. I also spent all day Saturday and Sunday downtown, with a protest sign nearby - no heart attacks or...
