Arizona fugitives scare shows need for instant self-defense

Freedom is not free; however, the natural right of self-defense was given to us by God and will not be stolen from us with legislation.
 
 
 
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege. 
Arkansas Supreme Court, 1878

 

 
 
The danger has passed, but the “Arizona Fugitives” scare yesterday in Gentry, Arkansas underscores the human need for instant self-defense at all times. The American right to bear arms in this country should always be free, and never taxed (as it is in Arkansas). 
 
The Arizona fugitives are still at large, but probably not in Arkansas. The possibility of this danger, nonetheless, made the people of Northwest Arkansas aware of their self-defense options when leaving their homes--- and if they didn’t pay the state to carry a gun, their options were few. The laws against the un-permitted right to open carry should be repealed as soon as possible.  The need to exercise this right is especially needed in the rural areas. The Benton County area covers almost 900 square miles with about 200,000 people; not many cops and a lot of people and acreage to protect. 
 
Citizens, hikers, campers, anglers, bikers, hunters and backpackers deserve their free right of self-defense.
 
 
 
 
 
Military Imposter William Clark
 
The disgust over the military imposter William Clark is spreading across the country. The military and firearms communities are strongly intertwined, and their revulsion about this guy still impersonating our fighting men is growing.
 
It looks like this cretin has been doing this for a long time, too.
