    This is the terrorist with a suspected suicide belt who killed at least two Jewish people outside a Manchester synagogue before being shot by police. A car was driven into a crowd and a man stabbed at 9.31am on Yom Kippur - the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. Laurence Taylor, the head of counter-terrorism policing, said the attack had been confirmed as terrorism. He said police had made two further arrests and knew the attacker's identity, but would not release the information at this stage. Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said four other victims are in a serious condition after...

    Real Clear Politics ^ | October 02, 2025 | John R. Lott, Jr.
    Three years ago, RealClearInvestigations reported that the FBI was undercounting the number of armed civilians who had thwarted active shooters by a factor of three. Even though the FBI acknowledged the issue at the time, it never corrected the error involving the politically fraught issue. In the years since, the problem has only gotten worse. Since RCI’s 2022 article, the FBI has acknowledged just three additional incidents of armed good Samaritans stopping active shooters from 2022 to 2024, and none in the last two years. In contrast, the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC), which I head, has documented 78 such...

    The federal case against Gabriel Metcalf in Billings, Montana, under the federal Gun Free School Zone Act of 1990 (GFSZ), has been resolved in Metcalf’s favor. In a split decision, the three-judge panel on the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has ordered the case remanded to the district court and has ordered the case dismissed. From the Summary by Judge VanDyke (purchased on PACER account): The panel reversed the district court’s order denying Gabriel Cowan Metcalf’s motion to dismiss an indictment charging him with possessing firearms within 1,000 feet of a school in violation of the Gun-Free School...

    This police officer with the Leon County (Florida) Sheriff's Office is so paranoid, that he sees a guy (Robert) parked at a gas pump, with a gas pump in his hand, trying to pump some gas, and he immediately thinks it's something else in his hand. He gets scared. He pulls into the gas station, gets out of his police cruiser and draws down on the guy, shouting at him.

    It's been a minute, so why not have a laugh at the pathetic lefty government in New Zealand? Kash Patel, the FBI director, traveled to New Zealand to open a security office in Wellington. At this event, he gifted security officials some 3D-printed replica handguns which were completely inoperable. Essentially a decorative piece. The New Zealand officials had to destroy the fake guns because even fake guns are banned in New Zealand. From Newsweek: During a series of meetings with New Zealand's top security officials on July 31, FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly presented three 3D-printed replica pistols mounted on...

    GLENWOOD, Iowa — When the Friar Family sat down for dinner on Aug. 6, the last thing they expected to hear was gunshots. "A lot of people in the neighborhood light fireworks," said Harrison Friar. "At first, we weren't concerned." But it wasn't fireworks. And the sound didn't stop. "It was so close that I felt there was something wrong, like really wrong," said his wife, Brielle Friar.

    There has never been a positive outcome when the government sets out to disarm the people. Authoritarian states are the inevitable result. Certain semi-automatic weapons were prohibited in March 2025, with a one-year amnesty period for lawful gun owners to surrender their rifles through a buyback program. The government claims the buyback program is completely voluntary “with the expectation they will comply,” according to Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree. Anandasangaree does not believe the Canadian government is equipped to disarm citizens, as revealed in a leaked audio clip. “I just don’t think municipal police services have the resources to do...

    In 2021, Katharina Krüsselmann finished her PhD research on a possible link between legal firearms ownership and violent deaths in Europe. The news article was published by the University of Leiden in the Netherlands. From the article: Firearms are the most deadly weapons in common use. So you would expect that the more there are, the more murders are committed with them. But Katharina Krüsselmann did not find such a link when she compared studies on firearm use in Europe. She says this is in part because the murder rate is extremely low in many European countries, which makes small...

    Despite a Houston area baseball facility initially claiming Muslim men shooting into a 12-yaer-old baseball game was “recreational shooting,” the Department of Homeland Security says the men are dangerous criminals. DHS also says two of the men never should have been allowed into the country or been granted the immigration status they were by the Biden administration. Three Muslim men were charged last week with felonies after they allegedly fired rounds toward a youth baseball complex in Katy, Texas, a suburb west of Houston. Shots were fired into the Ameripark youth baseball field, known as “The Rac,” when a youth...

    The Justice Department filed a lawsuit against the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) and Sheriff Robert Luna on Tuesday, accusing it of "systematically" delaying concealed carry permits for law-abiding citizens in violation of the Second Amendment. The lawsuit, which the DOJ touts as its first-ever affirmative lawsuit in support of gun owners, alleges the LASD created a "pattern and practice" of obstruction by forcing law-abiding citizens to wait months and even years for a decision. The DOJ said in their complaint that, between January 2024 and March 2025, the sheriff’s office received 3,982 new applications for concealed carry permits...

    A second illegal migrant hit in the mass shooting at a Dallas ICE facility has died from his injuries, according to his “shattered” wife, who is expecting their fifth child any day now. Mexican national Miguel Angel Garcia-Hernandez, 32, was shot at least eight times during last Wednesday’s sniper-style attack and was rushed to Parkland Hospital in a critical condition before dying of his injuries, CBS News reported. Garcia-Hernandez, who was in the US illegally, was detained by ICE after being arrested on Aug. 8 for a DUI, Gauffeny previously said.

The case is ASSOCIATION OF NEW JERSEY RIFLE AND PISTOL CLUBS, INC., et al., v. ATTORNEY GENERAL NEW JERSEY, et al.This case is one of the best candidates for courts to make clear that bans on semi-automatic rifles and magazines that hold more than ten rounds are unconstitutional and in conflict with the Second Amendment.The Trump DOJ was not asked to submit...

    The Palm Beach Post published an opinion piece on September 18, 2025. While the Post says the article is only the authors’ opinion, this correspondent could not find any mention of who the authors were.The authors show they lack significant information about open carry. A couple of years ago, as of 2022, only four states prohibited the general open carry of modern handguns. They were California, Florida, Illinois, and New York. As the divide between the states following Supreme Court decisions on the Second Amendment widened after the Bruen decision in 2022, New Jersey made it illegal to open carry...

    Four churchgoers have died, with at least eight more injured and others potentially unaccounted for after a gunman set fire to a Mormon church in Michigan and began shooting at congregants. The shooter, who was killed by police at the scene, has been identified as 40-year-old Iraq War veteran Thomas Jacob Sanford. Sanford opened fire on hundreds of people, including children, who had gathered for a service at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc about 10.25am on Sunday. Police confirmed in an 8pm press conference that two of the victims died from gunshot wounds, while...
