Conversation with a Comedian
As I contemplated my life this week, I ran into a comedian named Clay Miles. Although our conversation had nothing to do with guns and the Second Amendment it was good. I wanted to learn about him and comedy. I needed to laugh. Maybe you do too. I am pondering and thinking about what direction to take this show. I took a moment to record and share it with you. I have a few questions for you too. Help me out. [email protected]

This is a short convo about striker fired sidearms. Maybe you are carrying one now. Maybe it should be your next/first purchase. I am giving you three to try at the range under supervision/training.
Revolvers are still good. Don't count them out.
Warning on social media.
Trying to get my mojo back, let me know if you are listening, and/or have questions.

Sharing some commentary and seeking your thoughts on what I said. Sharing what it takes to get started as a gun owner in Maryland and giving kudos to the Virginia Citizens Defense League, VCDL.org for leading as a gun rights organization.

The state of Maryland isn’t quite up to the level of New York or California when it comes to gun control, but it ain’t for lack of trying.
Maryland has tons of gun control laws on the books, and none of them have made Baltimore any safer, but that won’t stop them from doing more.

Gun ownership requires responsibility. There is more mental energy required than just owning a gun and shooting it recreationally. (that is what I mean by Shooting is Mental)
Training will save you money and save your life. Seek some before you buy and you’ll thank me. Firearm ownership is not for everyone but it should be for anyone who has not given up his or her right to do so. Buying a firearm should be an educated decision not an emotional one.
Shooting is mental because you have to navigate fact from fiction, and hype from reality. You have to make some judgement calls. You have to train your brain not to do what you have seen on TV or on social media. You have to make decisions that are literally life or death. Am I prepared to defend myself? Am I ready to go through with what is coming after I stop a bad guy? Can I handle the political foolishness? Have I been on the right side of this thing? Who do I believe now? Where do I get training from? Who is legit and not a mall ninja?
Shooting is mental.
These days everybody is an expert. Who do you trust to teach your family? Are you going to become a competitor? Going to start a club? Going to join one?
Then there is the racism, sexism, separatism that is HUGE in this community. Us vs them. If you aren’t careful you’ll get sucked up in the foolishness. Yeah I said it. Foolishness, it’s one of the reasons after 30 years of gun rights activism you don’t see me at conventions and events.
Below are a list you will probably see each time you go to a public range, learn them. A more in depth reason for them will follow.
1. Treat all guns as if they were loaded.
2. Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire.
4. Be sure of your target and what's beyond it.
5. Always wear eye and ear protection when shooting.
6. Be sure the barrel is clear of obstructions before shooting.
7. Don't alter or modify your gun, and have guns serviced regularly.
8. If your gun fails to fire when the trigger is pulled keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
9. Use correct ammunition.
10. Learn the mechanical and handling characteristics of the firearm before you use it.
Thank you for your prayers and financial support.

This week I want to introduce to some and remind others about situation awareness. The threats have been increasing among many groups. You are probably in one of them. Don't think being pro-gun is a talisman against getting popped in the head by a group of teens. Are you paying attention?

Situational awareness literally means to be constantly aware of your situation. Now in terms of security, it means to be constantly aware of your security situation and identifying potential threats and dangerous scenarios. This sounds a bit stressing to be aware of risks and danger all the time, specially if you live in a high risk level neighborhood or city.
So we want to focus on how to achieve this awareness in a relaxed way.
Situational awareness is more a state of mind than a learned skill. This is important not only for security agents and corporations, but also and most important for individuals to learn how to identify criminal behavior and other dangerous threats around them so they can react accurately and defend themselves and others.

Are you prepared for floods? Natural disasters? Hint hint.
Dog theft is a new thing. And although none of us can bear the thought of our family pets going missing, leaving them miserable and at risk, around 40% of all animals reported lost have actually been stolen.
According to the stats, over 60% of these are tragically never recovered.

How are you going to defend yourself if threatened while walking your dog?
Last month was Suicide Prevention month.
I’m just here to remind you that you still matter. You’re not alone. I may not understand exactly how you feel, but you’re not alone.
“Life is very difficult, especially when you’re alone.”
I may not understand exactly how you feel, but you’re not alone.
I care.
Hotlines in the U.S.
All hotlines listed below are free and confidential.
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
800-273-TALK (8255)
The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is open 24 hours a day, every day. Services are also available for veterans, and for Spanish speakers.
988 has been designated as the new three-digit dialing code that will route callers to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. While some areas may be currently able to connect to the Lifeline by dialing 988, this dialing code will be available to everyone across the United States starting on July 16, 2022.
When people call, text, or chat 988, they will be connected to trained counselors that are part of the existing National Suicide Prevention Lifeline network. These trained counselors will listen, understand how their problems are affecting them, provide support, and connect them to resources if necessary.
The current Lifeline phone number (1-800-273-8255) will always remain available to people in emotional distress or suicidal crisis, even after 988 is launched nationally.
