The February 2010 issue of GUNS Magazine is online, and a letter by NRA Life Member David Lundeen regarding my Firearms Freedom Act "Rights Watch" column caught my eye. He cited the September 2009 issue of their American Hunter magazine, and observed:
[I]t is clearly stated “Firearms Freedom Act “ supporters have never planned to test these laws in criminal cases, and no one who puts himself in that situation should expect support from the NRA.”
It's true. I'm a Life Member and get American Rifleman, and it's on page 18.

Students at the University of Colorado are being told by campus police that their planned game of "Humans vs. Zombies" must be canceled because of a campus ban on toys that look like guns.
The planned game would divide participants into "humans" and "zombies" with the human team defending themselves with NERF guns. Campus police "[fear] they could be painted to look like a real weapon and someone could become alarmed and notify authorities, who would have to respond."
"If we have people playing a game and someone happens to be walking and sees someone crouched down with something that looks like a weapon, then they call us, we're going to respond," said campus police spokesman Mollie Bosley.

Regular readers are familiar with the concept of "Authorized Journalists"—professionals who work for "mainstream media" and are considered (sometimes by government and generally by themselves) to be the exclusive authoritative and credible purveyors of information. Think "Only Ones" with a press pass. These readers are also familiar with the many failings we've demonstrated where establishment reporters bring personal bias, along with "sins of omission and commission" into supposedly straight news stories. And then there are glaring errors where the only explanations seem the writers do not know (or fact-check) their subject matter, or they know damn well but have an agenda to promote. My experience as a news consumer is that this is pervasive, and not just limited to guns. But since guns are what we're here to talk about, let's dig up once again the lie about "assault weapons" that was calculated with deceiving intent, and has been dutifully parroted by the "Authorized Journalists" ever since.

"Alice Schroeder, author of “The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life” and a former managing director at Morgan Stanley, is a Bloomberg News columnist. The opinions expressed are her own." And they are wrong.
Schroeder wrote in her recent article Arming Goldman With Pistols Against Public: Alice Schroeder that a Goldman Sachs banker told a friend of hers that "senior Goldman people have loaded up on firearms and are now equipped to defend themselves if there is a populist uprising against the bank. " She ran with the story despite no evidence to support it. Even if true, which seems unlikely as pointed out by Janet Tavakoli in The Huffington Post and Marla Singer in The Zero Hedge, Schroeder gets a lot of things wrong in her article.
"Common sense tells you a handgun is probably not even all that useful."
