Overall the Brady campaign gives California a whopping A- on the gun safety front. http://www.bradycampaign.org/legislatio ... .php?st=ca


So, the answer is there aren't any gun-slingin' Americans who could have shown up - because you can't get a concealed carry permit in California.

California is one of those places where it's mostly criminals who carry the guns - because law-abiding citizens are not allowed that right.

In court today there was a case where a man stabbed his wife with a steak knife 2 times... fortunately she survived.

Should steak knives be banned in the United States?

Actually the only ones who should have their steak knives taken away are those people who like their steaks "well-done". Now THAT is a crime.

She had to balance on her walker as she pulled out a snub-nosed .38-caliber handgun.

OMG.

DCJenn ITA.

No more steak knives for Heinz 57 users either.

Kalamazoo man fends off attackers with handgun

WOOD-TV

OSHTEMO TOWNSHIP -- A Kalamazoo man was able to turn an attempted attack around because of his concealed weapons permit.

The Kalamazoo County Sheriff's Department says 32-year-old Brian Smith was approached by two men as he was entering his apartment on Mt. Royal Drive just before 2 a.m. Friday.

One of the suspects asked Smith for directions to Kalamazoo Valley Community College and then pulled out a revolver. Smith pulled out his revolver to defend himself and fired two shots, hitting the suspect in his left hand.

Both of the suspects fled the scene on foot. The wounded suspect was arrested a short time later while trying to get medical attention.

The other suspect is still on the loose. He is described as a black man in his early 20s, about 5'8" tall and having a thin build, and last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and black jeans.

If you know anything about this incident or the whereabouts of the second suspect you are asked to call police at (269) 383-8822 ext. 6.
