Weekly Roundup # 130
A collection of interesting articles you may not have seen by authors you may not have read
The Weekly Roundup is a feature offered to my readers in addition to my regular articles. The Roundup is a collection of mostly recent articles you probably haven’t seen by writers you may not have read. The main intent is to expose readers to a reasonable amount of hopefully new information in the hope this will encourage some to explore further and develop a deeper understanding of the issues that shape our society and ultimately determine our way of life. The secondary intent is to offer some interesting reading for you while providing exposure for some great writers. Enjoy!
This one is worth watching California! Apparently, a concealed carrier likely saved lives as a knife wielding man attacked customers in a California restaurant. The story didn’t mention the fact that the concealed carrier was breaking the law by carrying in a “sensitive area”. Let’s see how the state reacts to the violation of their dangerous, stupid law. AWR Hawkins reports in Good Guy with Gun Fatally Shoots Knife-Wielding Man in Barbeque Restaurant.
It seems there is at least one good judge serving on the 9th circuit. AWR Hawkins reports on what this judge has to say about his colleagues in Judge Urges SCOTUS to Give “Benchslaps” for 9th Circuit’s Gun Rulings.
Another win for the good guys in Virginia and Cam Edwards has the story in AR-15s and 20-Round Magazines Back on the Menu at Virginia Gun Shops.
When the facts are against you all that you have are misinformation and lies which is the position the gun control Left mostly occupies. Lee Williams examines the latest example in “And do you have a permit for your AR, sir?”.
The Weekly Roundup now includes a humorous meme to lighten the day. The weekly meme is chosen from dozens posted in the Week in Pictures originally created by Steven Hayward and for a time carried on by his colleague John Hinderaker of the Powerline blog. Hayward and Hinderaker have now decided to alternate their WIP duties each week. Welcome back Steven! Powerline features excellent reporting and analysis of American politics and culture. I’ve been reading the work of Hayward and his colleagues for over fifteen years.
Enjoy this week’s meme.
