GET OFF MY LAWN! Podcast #141: Today's Modern Woman
What is a woman? That question has become the bane of people from new media to the US Supreme Court. But WHY is that? Is being a woman in today's society really all that much different from yesteryear? Has being a woman become a BAD thing? Do women even need to be feminine these days? Let's sit...

#137: Where Do You Get Your News?
More and more people are developing a mistrust for what we call "mainstream media." I believe that mistrust is both healthy and well-earned. That said, we all have to keep up with the world around us, lest we be caught unaware. With the traditional major news outlets suspect, there has been a...

#136: Keyboard Commandos, Meal Team Six, and the Gravy SEALs
The art of waging a full-scale world-wide-web war is alive and well. Let's discuss how these elite fighters who hide in their parents' basements to launch their keyboard campaigns actually CAN NOT AND SHOULD NOT be trusted if the proverbial poop really does hit the fan one day. We have brought…

#135: Words Matter - 2A/Firearm Nomenclature
There are myriad new firearm owners and 2A advocates/activists out there. When someone is new and still learning the jargon in "our world," often times they will use the wrong word or phrase and well-meaning but tactless keyboard warriors will light them up faster than than a doobie at a Snoop…

#134: Open Carry - Stupid or Sensible?
I recently heard an episode of GUNS Magazine's podcast called "The Gun Cranks." In that episode, the three panelists all concurred that open carry is unquestionably and undeniably STUPID. Let's have our own discussion/debate and find out if EVERYONE thinks that way or if those old fuddy-duddies…

Over the years, I have heard multiple firearms instructors oppose Constitutional Carry because they fear it will affect their livelihood. The facts do not support that. Let's have a discussion about all the ways that Constitutional Carry BENEFITS instructors and how, with no requirement for a...
-
#128: The 2nd Amendment is NOT a 2nd Class Right
We do not treat any other right as listed in the constitution the same way the 2nd Amendment gets treated. We do not place prior restraint upon our rights to speech, worship, illegal search and seizure, due process, or any others, EXCEPT our right to keep and bear arms. For THAT right, and ONLY...

#127: Words Don't Matter Anymore
In case you haven't noticed, society is quickly going to Hell in a handbasket. The new "progressive" movement has hijacked words and twisted them to become caricatures of their former selves. Some words have even been REDEFINED in Webster's dictionary! Words don't matter anymore, until they DO.…

#124: Mistakes Were Made (EDC Faux Pas)
Wherever you are on your journey of concealed carry (or open carry, or even NO carry), you have likely gotten it WRONG at least a time or two. Even seasoned EDC people, for lack of a better term, make the occasional mistake when carrying or choosing gear. Let's talk about mistakes we have made...

#121: Stupid Should Hurt
One of the major reasons that our society and our nation have gotten to the point that they have is that the term "personal responsibility" has become almost a taboo. Personal responsibility is waning, and we can see evidence of that almost everywhere we look these days. One of the major reasons...

#120: Hot Takes from Jon
We're going to try another night without a panel or guests, just me, myself, and the viewers. We have a list of topics that really aren't good for a full show, so tonight we will cover them and whatever else the folks in the live chat throw out there. This is YOUR chance to ask my opinion on any...

#118: Life After Bruen
Unless you are under a ginormous rock, you have heard the Supreme Court's decision on NYSRPA v. Bruen. With that landmark ruling, EVERY state must now become "Shall Issue." But was it REALLY that simple? Have the former "May Issue" states really just rolled over and begun issuing carry permits to...
-
#117: Fight For Your Rights (Why Do We Bother?)
We spend a lot of time here on YouTube and Facebook trying to help engage all of YOU in the fight to preserve and protect our rights as firearm owners. WHY do we do that? What's in it for us? What's in it for YOU? Have you ever actually thought about WHY it is so important to not only those of us...
-
#116: Know Your Worth
You have value. You are worth protecting. You are worth defending. AND, you have the right to insist that others respect YOUR rights. We hear all the time that our nation's greatest resource is our children, the next generation of Americans. We also hear all the time that we need to "teach our…

#115: Things Instructors WISH We Could Say
Every firearms instructor/trainer has a list of things that he or she WANTED to say to a student, but couldn't. Sometimes we just have to bite our tongue and hold certain things in. Tonight, let's pull back the proverbial curtain and expose a few of the things that we as instructors really wish…
more -
#114: Let's Talk About TRAINING
We have talked before about whether or not training should be MANDATORY in order to exercise our 2nd Amendment rights. Tonight let's talk about whether or not training is NECESSARY. If not, WHY NOT? And if so, then HOW should you train? Is it better to pay an instructor or can you learn…

#113: What Is A RIGHT?
We all know that we have certain rights. We all hear things that people say ARE a right that we don't necessarily agree with them about, and other times WE say things are a right that others disagree about with us. Just what, exactly, IS a right, anyway? Who gives it to us? Are there limitations…

Let's try something new. No panel, just me and the audience.
-
#111: Pro-Gun or Pro-2A? (What's the difference?)
Almost everyone knows someone who is "pro-gun." A lot of you ARE pro-gun. But what if I told you, not all pro-gun people are also pro-2nd Amendment? What does it mean to be pro-gun, what does it mean to be pro-2nd Amendment, and why is there a distinction? Can someone be pro-gun and ANTI-2nd...
-
#109: THE GUN LOBBY - Fact or Fiction?
We keep hearing the anti-gun crowd talk about this seemingly all-powerful "GUN LOBBY." But exactly who IS it? WHY are they so powerful? Does it even really exist? Of course, WE all know the "gun lobby," and that big national group to which they always refer, doesn't have the power it's made out…
more -
#108: Un-Ringing The Bell
We heard for 2 years that "All Cops Are B*stards," and that we need to defund the police. We also hear year after year after year, ad nauseum, that, "NO ONE NEEDS AN AR-15!!!" Looking back at recent events where yet more criminals misused firearms to commit multiple murders of innocent people, I...
-
#107: DOING SOMETHING
We all want to help fight for our freedom and liberty. Not all of us know HOW or WHERE to start. If you send your $10 to NRA, GOA, SAF, etc. are you REALLY doing something? If not, then WHAT??? Do you need to start a new group like Dianna Muller did with The DC Project? Are there any state or…

#106: 2A Life After "The Bug"
Like it or not, we ALL have been affected in some way by the "virus" that shut down the world. This is especially true for firearms owners, of which there are roughly 20 million newcomers. Let's talk about how life has changed since the infection graced us with its presence here in the US…

#105: Father Knows Best
Are you a grown adult? Are you capable of making your own decisions? Are you capable of making GOOD decisions, INFORMED decisions? Can you distinguish between fact and fiction? Most Americans over the age of 20 (I REALLY want to say 25) can answer YES to any of those questions. Any American who…

#104: Who Are Your Heroes?
Who are YOUR heroes? In real life? In the 2A Advocacy world? In the firearms world? I know I have a list that's probably too long to mention them all here. Let's have a discussion about who our heroes are and how they have influenced our lives.

#102: The DOUBLE STANDARD of Indoctrination
More and more examples of schools, teachers, children's programming, et al indoctrinating children are coming into the spotlight. I think we can all agree that indoctrination, as opposed to critical thinking and asking questions, is NEVER a good thing, at any age. But is this tactic exclusive to...
-
#101: JUDGE NOT, LEST YE BE JUDGED!
In today's society, JUDGING someone seems to be one of the worst things you can do to them. In fact, if you DO judge someone, you maybe JUDGED HARSHLY. Is being judgemental BAD? Are there instances where it might be GOOD? Let's dig in and discuss.

-
#99: Stay SAFE Or Stay FREE
Is it the function of the government to be the protector of the citizens? If so, to what extent? Should the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches assume TOTAL responsibility for our safety and ensure that no harm will ever come to us? Of course not. Safety is an illusion, and anyone who...

-
#97: SPEECH = VIOLENCE???
We've all heard someone on TV, or maybe even in person, say that speech can be literal VIOLENCE. Confoundingly, some of the same folks on the left ALSO claim that SILENCE is violence. Can both ideas be correct? Can EITHER idea be correct??? Let's talk about that, and more!

#96: Big Green Settles, but What Does That Mean For US?
Remington recently settled out of court for $73 million with the families of the Sandy Hook victims who filed a lawsuit. Everyone has been talking about how slippery that slope may turn out to be, but there are a few other questions that I have been asking. Why stop at Remington? Who else can we...
