    License to Murder

    Have you seen this site? It is calling the stand your ground law a license to murder. Some quotes: (Oh no, the lawyers tried to use the law to justify murder and failed. That must mean the law is flawed, even though it didn't get the killer off.)

    Article complaining about CCW at airport terminals

    This article is a typical bash against CCW at airports, railing against people who carry outside TSA checkpoints. I think this is going to be the next push- expanding TSA authority beyond airport checkpoints and sterile areas. Random searches, coming soon to a city near you.
