Why can't we get gun owners, and more specifically, concealed carriers, to train? why can't we get them to seek out education? Why is our community of serious practitioners so small, despite the fact that roughly half of Americans own guns? This is why: This stupid-ass, worthless, video has 15 millions views as of this...

Did he who made the Lamb make thee? -William Blake Human beings encompass much of nature’s behavior and certain individuals are far more lamb than tiger, and vice versa. I am of the...
