Anti-gunners: Incendiary Image of the Day: CSGV Mask Slips :: 05/30/2015
The guy who runs the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence’s Facebook page is a nasty f%&k. He constantly posts links, pics and comments that treat gun owners like vermin.

That said, the CSGV mostly tries to sugar-coat their contempt. Except when the mask slips and they don’t. This is one of those times. And here’s some of the feedback on their page . . .

Your papers please! :: 05/30/2015
In Tennessee, one must have "papers" in order to carry a defensive firearm legally. The defensive firearm, an arm as defined by the Supreme Court, is protected by the Second Amendment, except where it isn't.
