Safety is “no longer a spectator sport,” he says. “I need you in the game.”</p> <p>“With officers laid off and furloughed, simply calling 911 and waiting is no longer your best option,” Clark adds. “You can beg for mercy from a violent criminal, hide under the bed, or you can fight back. But are you prepared?”</p> http://www.freetalklive.com/content/wis_sheriff_encourages_citizens_get_gun_and_defend_themselves#comments 911 Good Cop gun control gun freedom gun rights myths News Article Police Protection second amendment self-reliance Sat, 26 Jan 2013 20:42:44 +0000 alisium 25769 at http://www.freetalklive.com http://www.freetalklive.com/content/if_you_belive_gun_ownership_feb_14_starbucks_appreciation_day <p>The National Gun Victims Action Council:a anti gun group, have called for a boycott of Starbucks on Valentine's Day, Feb. 14. They've targeted Starbucks because the popular coffee shop chain has steadfastly refused to impose firearms restrictions above and beyond the gun laws that already exist at their 18,890 locations.<br /> To ensure that the boycott gains no traction, many blogs serving the gun-rights community have designated Feb. 14 as Starbucks Appreciation Day. Please visit Starbucks on Valentine's Day and buy the fanciest item you can. They serve a lot more than coffee.</p> <p><a href="http://www.freetalklive.com/content/if_you_belive_gun_ownership_feb_14_starb
