The Outdoor Wire starts things rolling with a story out of NY. FPC Asks Supreme Court to Strike Down Park Carry Ban

Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) announced today that it filed a petition for writ of certiorari with the United States Supreme Court in Christian v. James, asking the Court to strike down New York's sweeping ban on peaceable firearm carry in public parks.

The Other McCain - The Zero-Sum Logic of Racial Hatred

There are so many things wrong with that single paragraph that I could write an entire essay exploding her errors, but that’s irrelevant to the larger point, namely that racial obsession is at least as dangerous for black people as it is for white people. Whether it’s Nikole Hannah-Jones pushing an idealistic commitment to “racial progress” or some kind of crypto-Nazi devotee of Aryan supremacy, there will be such a vast distance between reality and your racial ideal that it will drive you crazy.

Self-Defense Is Legal in Colorado

It can be hard to tell with Blue States. Suspect in Brighton homicide won’t face charges as DA ‘cannot disprove self-defense’ in deadly shooting

There was a shooting, and the guy who got shot, died at a local hospital. Police arrested 18-year-old Jeness Torres, but the prosecutor dismissed the charges.

After a thorough investigation of the evidence, however, “our office determined that the facts do not support the filing of criminal charges, as we cannot disprove self-defense or defense of others in this incident,” said a spokesperson for the 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

Brighton, Colorado, is a suburb of Denver, being about 10 miles northeast of downtown.

Considering that this incident took place on Sunday, the 13th, and this decision was announced four days lated on the 17th, I would have to say that this prosecutor's office is working at warp speed. It can take DAs months to make this determination, even in the face of overwhelming evidence.

Self-defense is a human right, and it just might be your legal right in Colorado.

Not Guilty By Reason of Insanity Is the New Hotness

It seems to be in the news lately. Walmart stabbing suspect found not guilty by reason of insanity

This happend in 2025, so you're forgiven if you have forgotten the details. Here is a refresher from Fox News. Armed Marine veteran stops Michigan Walmart stabbing suspect

The man, identified by family as Derrick Perry, is seen in the video pointing a firearm at the suspect in the store’s parking lot in Traverse City as he and other bystanders shout "drop the knife!" Perry is a Marine veteran, the New York Post reported, citing his family.

And because Heroes should be remembered, here is a post from Benny Johnson, calling out the Hero, Derrick Perry.

This is Derrick Perry.

Those are the details from last summer. Back to the current situation.

A man accused of stabbing 11 people at a Grand Traverse County Walmart last summer has been found not guilty by reason of insanity, according to the Grand Traverse County Sheriff's Office.

You can click thru for the details.

Traverse City, Michigan, is in the northwest portion of the lower peninsula, on Grand Traverse Bay of Lake Michigan. It is about a 255 mile drive northwest of Detroit.

Since the case is now, apparently, closed, CCTV and bodycam footage has been released.

This video is from both Midwest Safety and The Interrogation Files. Bodycam Released in Walmart Mass Stabbing. The video is 27 minutes, so plan accordingly.

My post on the initial incident: Armed Citizen Stops Mass Stabbing. That includes a link to a Colion Noir video on the incident.

How Can There Be Gun Crime in the UK?

How can it be with all those lovely gun-control laws? Watch: Man fights off gunman in London corner shop

A shopper wrestled his gun-wielding attacker to the ground in a corner shop in north London.

CCTV footage showed Ali Unlu wrestle with Mustafa Bolat, 29, who fired at least one shot in his direction at a convenience store in Wood Green.

The defender is Ali Unlu, and the attacker is Mustafa Bolat. London is not the same as it was. Well, there are some things that all progressive cities have in common.

At the Old Bailey, Bolat admitted possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence, but was cleared by a jury of attempted murder and possession of a firearm and ammunition with intent to endanger life.

The hat tip for all of this goes to Active Self Protection. See the video, which is about 10 minutes, for a breakdown of the CCTV video.

Couple Rob Crash Victim While She Was Trapped in Wreckage

I miss living in a civilized society. From CWB Chicago: Couple robbed police dispatcher while she was trapped in car wreckage, prosecutors say - CWB Chicago

A veteran Chicago police dispatcher was pinned inside her wrecked car, with nine broken ribs and two fractured vertebrae, when a man climbed into the back seat and stole her driver’s license and credit cards, prosecutors say. The man’s girlfriend then got into the front seat and began patting the injured victim’s waistline, apparently looking for more valuables.

Cops caught the pair, but the judge released them back into the city. Keeping depraved criminals in jail is unfair, according the State of Illinois.

Judge Luciano Panici Jr. denied prosecutors’ request to detain Nelson while the case proceeds and instead released him on electronic monitoring. Prosecutors did not file a detention petition in Vann’s case.

Chicago used to be a wonderful city. Not anymore.

Fear The Beast

Beast In Black is a Helsinki, Finland-based, Power Metal band. Don't worry, they sing in English. They are working up to releasing a new album, and have released several singles in the past couple of years.

This is song is "Fear The Beast" by Beast In Black. It was released in early September as a single. It has been announced as the title song to their upcoming album. While they have released a schedule of tour dates, I cannot find a date for the album's release. I suppose that means they are not finished with the recording and/or production of the album.

This is the official audio of the song. There is also an official video. I have not seen it. It is easy enough to find if you are interested. I find official videos to be distracting from the music, with a few exceptions.

The announced tour dates cover a handful of Asian concerts, and a solid schedule of European dates between now and Christmas. They apparently just finished a North American tour opening for Helloween, a German, Power-Metal band.

This Guy Is Lucky He Didn't Get Shot

He also suffered from a failure of the victim-selection process. Bertie County homeowner holds break-in suspect at gunpoint until deputy arrives

A man was held at gunpoint by a homeowner Tuesday morning following an attempted breaking and entering into a residence in Bertie County.

A deputy with the Bertie County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to a residence in the 200 block of Sally Freeman Road in Colerain at approximately 9:15 a.m. for a break-in in progress.

A deputy showed up, and took Carlton Moore to the county lockup.

He was tied to another break-in committed in that area when a search of his home turned up items stolen from another property.

Bertie County, North Carolina, is about 120 mile drive east of Raleigh, North Carolina, or about a 90 mile drive southeast of Norfolk, Virginia.

Moore was charged with two counts of breaking and entering, two counts of larceny after breaking and entering and two counts of possession of stolen goods.

Self-defense is a human right. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0.

DOJ Sues San Jose, Calif. Over $1,600 Gun Permit Fee

The Left Coast really, really, really hates the idea of Concealed Carry. How dare you not rely on the State, even for things that they cannot provide. Justice Department Sues California City Over 'Unconstitutional' $1,600 Gun Permit Fee - The Daily Hodl

The U.S. Justice Department has sued the City of San Jose and its police department for imposing what officials call an unconstitutional fee on residents seeking to carry firearms.

The fee reaches nearly $1,600 per license and stands as the highest in the nation, far above charges in cities such as New York, Washington D.C., Boston and Chicago, says the U.S. Department of Justice.

I just checked. In my county in Ohio, (I don't know if it varies by county or not) it is $67 to get a concealed carry license. $77 if you have lived in Ohio less than 5 years. Renewals are $50. That is if you choose to get a license. Ohio is a Constitutional Carry state, though there are good reasons to get a CCW.

The department highlights a key passage from Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon stating that all law-abiding Americans have a constitutional right to bear arms for self-defense and that this right is not a luxury reserved for a privileged few but a fundamental element of our republic.

I expect San Jose will fight this tooth and nail. Because Progressive politics, or something. (Hat tip to Keep and Bear Arms.)

1619 Activist's Daughter Is Upset with Her

Is anyone shocked that a Woke Activist™ would sacrifice their child's future to make some Woke Activist Point?

A wealthy activist sent her daughter to a struggling NYC public school to prove a point. No one, including the daughter, is quite sure what that point is. From the NY Post: Woke NYT, 1619 Project writer deliberately sent daughter to troubled schools as a ‘sacrifice’ — and it backfired spectacularly

The writer behind the New York Times’ controversial 1619 Project deliberately sent her daughter to poor Big Apple schools as a “sacrifice” to try to boost the education system — and no one is angrier than the kid.

The teen is now “boiling” mad — badly behind her peers after finally being allowed to enroll in a more rigorous high school, her mother revealed in a bombshell bizarre essay.

You know it is odd, because Obama, who was once the Left's patron saint of getting ahead, never went to a public school in his life.

The original New York Times article is behind a paywall, but you can find it at this link. In Fighting for Every Black Child, Did I Betray My Own?

“Did you know my school was bad like this when you decided to put me here?” [the daughter] asked.

My hands tightened on the steering wheel as I worked to keep my face neutral, buying a few moments to gather my thoughts.

The Anti-Gun Media Hates Brandon Herrera

That would include all of what passes for mainstream media. From Lee Williams, The Gun Writer. Why the anti-gun media is worried, clueless about a U.S. House race in Texas

Brandon Herrera will become a U.S. Congressman, despite what the anti-gunners try.

The media arm of the anti-gun, AstroTurf movement, The Smoking Gun, which is part of Everytown, has a hit piece on Herrera. They are not alone. MS-Now, USA Today, Esquire, and more have also had things to say about Herrera.

It’s been years since the mainstream media has been so united about anything, much less a U.S. House of Representatives race, in Texas no less.

Their main reason for blasting Herrera is more than clear. He is pro-gun. In fact, not only is he extremely open about his passion for firearms, he makes a good living thanks to guns. This, alone, has the other team seething with anger.

I like Brandon Herrera. I love his YouTube videos, most of them anyway, and his sense of humor, and his take on the 2nd Amendment. (The man built a AK in .50 BMG!) Just take any of his "Gun Meme Review" videos, like this example, and take note of the walls of his "office."

Click thru and read the article from Lee Williams. He was details on the media insanity, and a link to an interview he conducted with Herrera.

A Neighborhood in L.A., Hollywood, Was the Movie Industry

Past tense. From Stephen Green at PJ Media: Say Goodbye to Hollywood... If It Even Exists Anymore

Hollywood and Los Angeles were once so inextricably intertwined that you could hardly mention one without picturing the other. So much more than just a neighborhood in central Los Angeles, Hollywood simply was the entertainment industry — a name that conjured all the glamour, glitz, beauty, wealth, thrills, and tabloid debauchery of a magical place that could only exist in America.

Say "Hollywood" in the 1980s, and people didn't think of that neighborhood in Los Angeles, they thought of the movie industry.

Steve Martin's 1991 movie L.A. Story was a "love letter to a version of Los Angeles" that was already on its way to being history.

It's been decades since film and TV production began decamping from Los Angeles to Toronto, British Columbia, Georgia, the U.K., and... Hungary? Yes, Hungary. Pretty much anywhere but Los Angeles. But the trend accelerated in recent years. The city has lost 40% or more of its production jobs from COVID-era peaks. Remember, those are the industry "grunts," as it were, who were middle class and far more conservative than the Hollywood elites.

Now Paramount is decamping for either Georgia, Tennessee, or Texas. That is whether or not (I think not) California stops the Warner Brothers merger. And if the merger goes through that will be the end of Hollywood. If the merger doesn't go through, Warner Bros. will go bankrupt, be broken up and sold off for parts, so same impact on Hollywood.

And none of the considers the move to film everything in the UK.

The Complete Film Threat Library to be Available

Well, it is to be available by way of Kickstarter, so no guarantees. Though I trust Chris Gore to make it happen.

Chris Gore started Film Threat in 1985. First it was a Zine, and then a legitimate magazine. It was owned by Larry Flynt for a while, but Chris got the rights back after they shut down the magazine.

During all of that time Chris Gore has focused his life on movies, and in particular independent film.

Today, Film Threat lives on as a website devoted to movies, and a YouTube channel.

The entire print run is going to be available by way of Kickstarter. The FILM THREAT Compendium and Digital Archive

Launched in 1985, FILM THREAT magazine established itself as the most respected authority in covering cult, underground and independent cinema — as well as offering a unique take on Hollywood. Our pages have featured exclusive behind-the-scenes coverage, in-depth interviews with rising filmmakers, and a wealth of insight and information about not only the movies you love, but ones you otherwise never would have heard of.

The Compendium is a 300 page book. It will include "interviews with writers, directors, producers, actors and other filmmakers" in the world of independent film.

An important companion to The FILM THREAT Compendium is our completely remastered Digital Archive, collecting the entire print run of the magazine — including the early Xerox ’zine editions and the complete run of the ever-edgy FILM THREAT VIDEO GUIDE! That's right, from celluloid renegades Nick Zedd and Richard Kern to an array of other alternative filmmakers who sought to assault their audiences.

Chris G. produced a couple of independent movies in his career, he was a recurring host on the G4 program Attack of the Show, he has written the books The 50 Greatest Movies Never Made, The Ultimate Film Festival Survival Guide, and more. Not that all of that is included in this Kickstarter.

It should be an interesting look at movies, if from a slightly odd point of view. I'm looking forward to it. (While this probably sounds like an ad, it isn't. I just really like Film Threat.)

Defending Yourself From Rabid Animals

Some threats have 4 legs, and some are infected with bad diseases. Rabid bobcat mauls pet dog, charges at wife before Arizona homeowner shoots it dead | FOX 10 Phoenix

A Pine homeowner shot and killed a wild bobcat after the animal launched a bloody backyard attack on his dog and aggressively charged at his wife.

What we know: State wildlife officials confirmed the bobcat tested positive for rabies following the Aug. 29 incident off Old County Road, raising fresh concerns about rabid wildlife in Gila County and across Arizona.

Pine, Arizona, is roughly a 100 mile drive north of Phoenix.

Realizing the cat’s erratic and aggressive behavior was highly abnormal, the homeowner contacted the Arizona Game and Fish Department to report the incident and request that officials retrieve the carcass.

This reminded me of a scene from To Kill a Mockingbird.

Rabies is not something to screw around with.

So I wonder if someone from the gun-hating part of the Left will explain how the world would be better if this rabid bobcat was not dispatched by this homeowner. I'm not holding my breath waiting for that to happen.

3 Million Vehicles and Risk of Fire

"This is what happens when an entire industry process rots from the inside."

While I love to pick on electric vehicles, this isn't just about electric vehicles.

This is the StacheD Training video Why New Cars Suck! 3 Million Cars with FIRE Recall

Right now, over 3 million vehicles in this country have an open park outside recall, not to fix something eventually. A recall telling you you can't park your car in your garage because it might catch on fire.

The video is about five and a half minutes long.

Where the Ultra-Woke Gay-Rights Movement Lost the Plot

Let's start with the vocabulary word of the day: Tocqueville effect or Tocqueville paradox. Named for Alexis De Tocqueville, who toured America in 1835 and wrote a wonderful book, Democracy in America. (If you haven't read it, I can recommend it.)

So, what is the Tocqueville effect? The Tocqueville Effect: Why We’re Always Angry about Something

Tocqueville is suggesting that as conditions improve we become more offended by the remaining faults in our society. That we become more passionate about social justice as the severity of inequalities around us decreases-even if those remaining inequalities are of a lesser magnitude than previous ones.

Basically, and activists are especially prone to this, we can never declare success, and go home. We never "solve the problem," because the goal posts are always in motion.

This is Arielle Scarcella's video The Woke Queer Mob Just Made Their BIGGEST Mistake

Let's take a look at clips from 1970s Pride versus today. How did a fight for gay and lesbian civil rights turn into a hyper-sexualized corporate-sponsored chaos? I actually think that we can blame it all on five specific issues.

Welcome to another psychological deep dive.

The video is just short of 12 minutes.

Oktoberfest in Cincinnati

800,000 people, more or less, will gather in a downtown Cincinnati this weekend, drink beer, do The Chicken Dance, listen to polka, and in general celebrate the German heritage of the city.

I will not be attending. (I have bad memories of Cincinnati Oktoberfest, and the Chicken Dance. Don't ask.)

This is Tim's America video Germans CAN'T EXPLAIN Why 800,000 Americans Throw An OKTOBERFEST In Cincinnati

The visitor from Munich, can't explain the chicken dance because it was never [music] German in the first place. It's a Swiss tune given words by a Belgian named in Oklahoma and made enormous in Ohio.

The video is 20 minutes long.

Self-Defense in Colombia

From the Crime Prevention Research Center: Colombia Lifting of Restrictions on the Carrying of Firearms

On September 8, 2026, President Abelardo De la Espriella signed Decree 1368, lifting Colombia’s nationwide suspension of permits to carry firearms. The decree ends the general prohibition on firearm-carry permits that Colombia had maintained since 2014.

It follows the example of Brazil, and that country's president Bolsonaro, which has seen murders in Brazil fall dramatically.

Colombia is not lifting all restrictions, and there are a lot, but every little bit helps.

Law abiding people should be able to protect themselves, because when seconds count, police are only minutes away.

Spelling matters. Colombia is a country in South America. Columbia was a record club from the 1970s, that was easy to join, and impossible to quit.

Private Schools In Danger of Losing Tax Exempt Status

Chicago Contrarian has the details. Chicago Private Schools Discriminated for Years to Further DEI and Now the IRS Wants Its Money Back

This story is about private schools in Chicago, but it applies nationwide.

Private schools that are tax exempt are in some trouble. They have been following the strictures of DEI, both in the classroom, and in hiring and pay. This is a problem. Or a potential problem anyway, as the US Treasury is proposing to crack down on DEI.

The proposed regulation (REG-119986-25) observes that a private school is not operated for charitable purposes if it "adopts, maintains, or enforces any policy or practice that discriminates on the basis of race, color, or national or ethnic origin" in any educational policy, admissions policy, scholarship program, athletic program, "or other school-administered or school-supported program."

"The operative concept here is 'any purpose,' and good intentions are not an excuse," the donor suggests. The proposed regulation suggests that racial discrimination in education is against fundamental public policy "regardless of the intent behind it," including where it is "defended as serving remedial or diversity-related objectives."

The National Association of Independent Schools is behind the pushing of DEI, and the number of schools, as estimated by the Treasury, is surprisingly large. Or maybe it is not so much of a surprise.

Schools that fail lose exemption for taxable years beginning after May 31, 2027. The IRS estimates 18,000 schools are in scope. These schools didn't all suddenly decide to start breaking the law individually. They followed their standards organization, the National Association of Independent Schools. NAIS is the trade group for Latin, Parker, Shipley, and hundreds of other private schools.

NAIS does not merely encourage DEI among its members. It embeds it in the "Principles of Good Practice", and membership in NAIS is contingent on agreeing to abide by them.

18,000 schools seems like a lot. That is more than half of all private schools in the US. (see National Center for Education Statistics.)

But really, I am not surprised that an alliance of educators is all in on DEI.
