The CarryTalk Podcast

I ended up having to record this on my notebook away from my regular computer.  the audio went through a lot of filters just to get it where it is.  I have several hours in this episode.  I am debating if I should simply record future episodes a day late rather than deal with this mess.  Sadly my desktop is better for recording the podcast but notebook beats my desktop system in every meaningful category hardware wise, both have the same Operating System and I used the same software on both.  Whatever the issue is I think its something to do with hardware compatibility.  So here is the episode that took more time and effort to record and filter than any five of the previous episodes combined.  So here it is, and this is as good as its going to get.

In this episode I will discuss carrying the 1911 and as part of the getting started series I will discuss finding a place to shoot.

This weeks CarryTip is: Use code words, such as first names, to discuss carry where you may be overheard.
Listen to the show to find out why.

Alaska: We don’t get many stories from Alaska, or Vermont for that matter, but we have an Alaskan story this week.  The citizens of Alaska are invited to a Second Amendment Patriots rally.    Read the article for more information.

Arizona: The effort to ban lead ammunition for hunting spills over into Arizona.  Proponents of engineered science claim the birds are being contaminated by lead they eat.

California: Attorney General Jerry Brown supports gun rights in the McDonald Case.  I personally find this one interesting because the attorney general’s position will hopefully erode many of California’s gun laws.

California: A candidate running against the anti-gun rights Sheriff Sandra Hutchens has earned the support of a California Gun rights group.

Georgia: Politicians and local residences of Conyers Georgia met and discussed gun laws and efforts to improve race relations.  I wonder if the fact that many gun laws can be traced back to Jim Crow laws was brought up.

Illinois: A suspect in a robbery will be charged with his accomplice’s death that resulted from a failed robbery attempt in East St. Louis.

Indiana: Tired of seeing stories about other states Indiana has gotten itself a story about an increase in right to carry permits.

Nebraska: Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning has signed a brief supporting incorporation of the Second amendment Via the Fourteenth amendment in the McDonald case.

New York: The state legislature is debating a number of anti-gun bills.  Gun owners in New York need to take action to stop this nonsense.

New York: In this case we have an article that once again proves that revolving door justice does nothing to stop crime.

New York: Kirsten Gillibrand has further abandoned her constituents who are gun owners.  At one time the Junior Senator from New York proudly stated she was pro-gun.

North Carolina: A man sentenced to 50 years in prison has been paroled after serving 19 years.  Somehow I doubt this criminal has been rehabilitated.

Ohio: An opinion piece sums things up with the headline “Deer culling opponents need to get over it”  Basically hunting is far more humane than letting the animals over populate and then starve to death because the land can not support their numbers.

Ohio: Police are investigating a gang rape at College Hill Park where three suspects attacked and raped a woman at gun point.  A Weapon, training, and jogging during the day would have really helped this victim.

South Carolina: We have an opinion piece against the Firearm Tax holiday in this article.  More senseless anti gun rights that is masked as being a no tax breaks senseless drivel.

Tennessee: A Judge has ruled that the law which permitted Licensed gun owners to carry into bars to be unconstitutional under the Tennessee state constitution.  The law was found to be unconstitutional because it was too vague.

Texas: Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott signs a brief supporting incorporation of the Second amendment via the Fourteenth amendment.

Texas: A 49 year old Dallas man was shot and killed by police when he went outside to investigate a noise.  The issue is that the officer mistook his bb gun as a firearm and shot him when he did not comply with orders to stop and drop it.  Officers where in the area investigate multiple 911 calls of shots being fired.  This story shows why people need training.

Texas: Masked robbers who were attempting  to rob a convenience store shoot a customer while the clerk hides under the counter.  This story has video, and you should watch how the suspects act and how quickly they are in and out.

Washington: Snohomish County is considering repealing their ban on guns in parks to bring themselves into compliance with Washington state law.

Washington: The lawyer who went to the community center wearing a pistol in protest of the cities illegal ban has now sued the city for nominal damages of $1, Attorney’s fess, and court costs.  He is also suing Mayor Nickels for an unspecified amount in punitive damages in an effort to deter similar actions by Washington officials.

Washington: Four police officers were shot and killed by two gunmen in a coffee shop while the officers worked on their laptop computers.  Situational awareness is key, even when your armed.

Wisconsin: the Wisconsin State Senate Judiciary Committee will have two anti gun rights bills before it for consideration.  SB 174 would require micro-stamping on all newly manufactured handguns sold in Wisconsin while SB 367 is yet another Lost or Stolen firearms bill.  Listeners in Wisconsin need to contact their state senators and make their position known on these bills.  Its even better if your state senator is on the judiciary committee.

National: a Bipartisan majority of the United States Congress signs brief supporting gun rights in the McDonald Case.  Essentially they support incorporation of the Second Amendment through the Fourteenth amendment.

National: The United States Attorney General, Eric Holder, has demonstrated a case of Joe Biden syndrome and said something that he probably shouldn’t have.  Holder told a Senate committee that the Justice Department supports increased gun control.

National: The White House takes on gun rights groups that appose the so called “Health Care Reform” efforts.

National: The International Law Enforcement Educators and Trainers Association has also filed a brief supporting gun rights in the McDonald case.

International/England: The British Chief Inspector of police has said British policing has “Lost its way.”

International/Honduras: Gun owners have been told to surrender their weapons before the election in an effort to combat violence.  Reports state that the firearms will be returned to the owners after the election.
