ShotSpotter saved lives.  It let police and paramedics respond to the location where sensors detected gunfire.  At that point, thanks to modern medicine, lives would be saved.  It's a shame when people die needlessly and it's a tragedy when innocent people die needlessly. Take Sierra Evans, the young woman with…

Apologies folks.  I set out to write this before leaving for Peoria's GSL meeting tonight by the server's switches were misbehaving.  Following some beatings until the morale improved, we're back up and running.  Anyway, Team Kwame's radically anti-gun attorneys had a no good, really bad day today in front of…

Matt Taibbi had this to say about those pretentious intellectual class trying to tell us little people how to think by "correcting" "misinformation" with their fact-check propaganda: So let me pause to say something about America's current intellectual class from which the anti-disinformation complex works. By the way, there are…

Three steps forward, 2 steps back, we should be stable. Nerd stuff: We upgraded our infrastructure, again. We moved from a copper to a fiber backbone. Server links are now up to 25Gbit/second. Everything went smoothly until we started our final tests. It appears that the new switch defaulted ports…

Guardian Concepts is organizing a Personal Safety Awareness event in Bradley, IL this Saturday from roughly 9-4.  (Yeah, I know the stuff below says 9:30-3:30...  I'm relaying what the sponsor, Mr. Haberkamp related to us Tuesday night in Pontiac).  I'm about 95% sure to go.  You should go as well…

They are up to six people who have been found by police all shot up without anyone reporting gunfire.  All in neighborhoods served by the former "ShotSpotter" system.  You know, poor neighborhoods in Chicago.  The sort of neighborhoods political leaders like Mayhem Mayor Brandon Johnson so easily and quickly ignore…

Kamala and Walz want to disarm you while making America's enemies stronger.

Freedom is scary.  Deal with it.  But Democrats and the mainstream media (but I repeat myself) are deeply concerned over the AI images depicting Kamala Harris as a communist.  In fact, the MSNBC Democrat Operative with a byline described others' free speech rights to create such images as "frightening." Again,…

Last night at the debate, Tim Walz answered a question about "gun violence."  We - and most of America - know that "gun violence" is really the left's euphemistic description of GANG violence.  Even Merrick Garland noted that gangs and repeat offenders (oftentimes a case of "but I repeat myself")…

by Chaplain Steve Holden Just when you think the world is a mess and things are falling apart, God does something that makes you realize He has things falling in place.  Coming from one of the least anticipated sources, the initiative features churches sponsoring events to show support for the…
