Thank You Brit Hume

Posted on by

When I first started really following politics I tried watching a lot of news shows on a lot of different channels but over the years there is only one that I continued to watch nightly and that was Special Report with Brit Hume. Brit Hume has been a voice I trust in both the reporting of Washington politics and the commentary on the political stories of the day and his departure from the the evening time slot is a sad day for fans of old fashioned reporting that is fair, balanced, and unafraid.

While many will be wishing Brit good luck in his future endeavors I’d like to also take the opportunity to say thank you.

Here’s video of Brit’s last few minutes from Hot Air:

Mother Killed While Defending Her Children was Stalking Victim

Posted on by

This is a follow up to the story of the heroic mother who died in a hail of gunfire when a maniac invaded her home. She managed to throw her children out a window to waiting officers during the stand off even while apparently taking bullets from the soulless bastard. She was apparently stalked for some time by the murderer before hand:

The report raises questions, like whether the mother was attacked by this bastard after the San Francisco Halloween party and just decided to put the incident behind her out of fear for her family. The attack seemed to be a planned rape gone wrong seeing that the degenerate carried restraints with him.

Another reason why I like to keep a gun (or in my case guns) in the house. The police can’t always protect you.
Too bad the perp killed himself. He got off easy for what he did, he deserved to die in a much more painful manner.

Heroic Mother Dies Saving Children from Home Invasion

We do a lot of stories of bad mothers, here’s one where a mother gave her life to save her two children. Of course rather than honor her sacrifice local San Mateo residents and media are trying to blame the police for her death, not the evil bastard who killed her.

This is a good mother and we should all be thankful that there are still people like this around:

This is Why I love My New Home in South Carolina

After Thanksgiving there will be a two day tax free shopping day-on guns. Behold the Second Amendment Recognition Act:

Columbia, SC—Most people are probably unaware of it, but on the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving, handguns, rifles and shotguns will be sales tax free in South Carolina. State lawmakers passed a bill in June that includes the sales tax holiday on firearms. They called it the Second Amendment Recognition Act.

Rep. Mike Pitts, R-Greenwood, was the sponsor of the original bill. He said he got the idea after talking to the owners of a hunting outfitters shop in Clinton about the late summer sales tax holiday for back-to-school supplies and clothing. The store owners said they could use the stimulus, too. “It was to help dealers,” Rep. Pitts says. “Another point was to bring recognition to the 2nd amendment.”

Kent Parsons, manager of Barron’s Outfitters hunting and fishing store in Columbia, says the days after Thanksgiving are typically busy sales days anyway. He’s hoping that even more people than usual will be buying shotguns and rifles from his store since they’ll be sales tax free. Sales tax will still be charged on ammunition and accessories.

“It might just be enough of a savings that a bigger-ticket item they can justify this year, with economic times being pretty tough,” Parsons says. “If you save 50 or 100 dollars on something, that’s a fairly sizeable reward.”

Damn right it is. I just purchased a Stoeger Coach Gun in 20ga (the handsome and manly Blued barrel and Walnut model) so it’ll be an uphill battle to convince the Mrs I need another firearm. But I’ve got try. It’s the law! Sort of.
