U. Kansas fires prof who called for anti-Harris male voters to be lined up and shot
You may have seen my posts or heard my radio commercials on the idea of #DisinheritWoke. Like leaving a legacy of firearm training, i think it’s much more important than trying to succeed in politics or the courts. Is it any wonder why so many of my estate...Lott: New Data on Migrant Crime is Shocking
It probably takes a lot to shock Dr Lott: The new data on all the criminal noncitizens coming into the U.S. is shocking. . The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) checks the background of illegal aliens they have in custody. But, the administration’s...Yet Another Mass Knife Attack in Communist China
Yet another mass knife has occurred in communist China, at a Wal-Mart in Shanghai. Three dead, fifteen injured. Attacker arrested. (Most mass attackers here in the US at least have the decency to attempt suicide as soon as they face any opposition.) Obviously, private...Kamala Claimed Cops can Randomly Check Homes for Compliance with City Gun Storage Law
My classmate Kamala Harris claimed back in 2007 as San Francisco District Attorney that the police are able to randomly search homes to check for compliance with San Francisco’s gun storage law. That law served as a model for similar laws later passed by many...Israel Terror Attack Stopped by Armed Bystanders
A terrorist in central Israel near Glilot rammed his truck into a crowd of people at a bus stop, killing one, injuring 36, six seriously. The terrorist then emerged with a knife but before he could cause further injury he was killed by armed bystanders. Stories here...FBI 2022 Data Revised – 6.6% Swing – Violent Crime Surges
Last month i posted this article regarding Dr Lott’s latest discovery of a surge in violent crime that didn’t jibe with FBI stats. Since then he’s posted several articles here, here, here, here and here, leading up to and following the FBI’s...Armed Attacker Killed with Own Knife in Beverly Hills Dog and Child Abduction Attempt
Details are sketchy and confusing in this bizarre case of an apparent child abduction by an apparently drug-addled attacker wielding a knife in an apparent attempt to grab a 2 year old girl on a walk with her parents in Beverly Hills. The father bravely defended...Firearms and the California Uniform Directed Trust Act
At the beginning of this year, the California Uniform Directed Trust Act (CUDTA) went into effect, codified in Probate Code §§ 16600-16632. It was a long time coming, having been first proposed back in 2010 by our state bar’s trust and estate section. When it...Gun HEET Revisited
Six years ago I posted this article proposing use of an advanced planning technique known as the Health and Education Exclusion Trust (HEET) to leave a dynastic legacy of firearm training. Such a trust might be called a Gun HEET. The Fall of the Republic and...What You Give Up with a Local Estate Planning Attorney
[Central Coast residents: You can safely ignore this article because we are here to help you with comprehensive planning.] Most of our local clients prefer to have the first meeting in person at our office in Morro Bay. After that initial meeting, many of these local...Boy, 12, Saves Father by Shooting to Stop Bear Attack
12-year-old boy saves father in Wisconsin bear attack by shooting the bear! Story here. Owen knew he had to do something to save his father’s life. “I saw him (the bear) knock him to the ground, and I just saw the black outline and shot over the dog’s back and hit the...Violent Crime Soars Under Biden-Harris
John Lott reports: The just-released data from the Bureau of Justice Statistics’s National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) shows violent crime has soared under Biden-Harris. If you look at rape, robbery, and aggravated assaults (the NCVS doesn’t measure murder),...California Dad Fights Off Mountain Lion That Dragged 5-Year-Old Son by the Head
This is a brave dad who should be commended for quick action to save his son: The victim was treated for his injuries then released, but had to return to the hospital after experiencing complications with wounds to his eyes. His current condition is not clear, the...11-Year-Old Boy Confesses to Murder of Former Louisiana Mayor, Adult Daughter
This shocking story is a reminder that not all threats appear as Darth Vader: Police in Minden, Louisiana, revealed on Monday that an 11-year-old boy confessed to the murder of former Mayor Joe Cornelius Sr., age 82, and his 31-year-old daughter, Keisha Miles....Democrats use 1865 Black Code to Disarm all Californians in 2024 (May v Bonta)
The CRPA on September 19, 2024, petitioned for en banc review of the Ninth Circuit panel’s decision regarding preliminary injunctive relief in May v Bonta (written by Judge Graber aka Grabber) oppressively curtailing the right to bear arms in California. En banc...Ninth Circus Panel Suddenly Bans Licensed Carry, Agrees Much of California is a Sensitive Place
The Ninth Circuit panel in the May and Carralero (“May v Bonta”) sensitive places cases yesterday issued its opinion, written by Judge Graber (i promise to refrain from adding another b to her name), which, if not soon corrected by en banc ruling (either...No CRPA, AB 262 is Alive, Engrossed and Enrolled!
[UPDATE: Gov. Noisome signed AB 262 into law on 9/22/24.] AB 262 is an innocuous sounding bill providing for the study of safety regulations relating to children’s camps. Yet given California’s recent history of attacking gun culture, we can expect this...Massachusetts Supreme Court: Switchblade Carry Ban Violates 2A
The Massachusetts Supreme Court in Commonwealth v Canjura has struck down a ban on switchblade carry as violating the Second Amendment. Following Bruen analysis, the Court could not find any historical analogues from the time of the Founding, or ratification of the...Ninth Circuit Blocks California’s “1-in-30” Gun Purchase Ban
The Ninth Circuit in Nguyen v Bonta has reversed its stay on a preliminary injunction against California’s “1-in-30” ban on purchasing more than one firearm in a thirty day period. After only one day of oral arguments, it was clear the State could...Armed Citizens Stop 35% of Mass Shootings (Over Half if Gun Free Zones Excluded)
After correcting massive errors found in FBI reports, Dr John Lott reports that at least 35% of mass shootings from 2014 through 2023 were stopped by private armed citizens. (I’m intentionally using the term “mass shooting” even though the studies,...More Knife Attacks in Gun Free Europe, Germany Pursues Knife Control
The stream of reporting continues on knife attacks in gun free Europe. I don’t know if that’s because the frequency of these attacks has increased, or if this is just due to increased media attention, but it’s always interesting to note the...Did Morro Bay Council, Staff, Police, Conspire to Infringe 2A Rights in Retaliation for Political Speech?

Kamala Harris, in a recent speech to the American Federation of Teachers, mocked as “extremists” those who would arm teachers for classroom defense: “While you try to create safe and welcoming places where our children can learn, extremists attack our...More Americans Armed for Self-Defense than Ever Before
Breitbart reports on CNN report that more Americans are now armed for self-defense than ever before. The report cited data from Injury Prevention journal, which revealed the percentage of gun owners that cited “personal protection” as the reason for getting a gun...CBP Nabs 3 Palestinian Terror Suspects Crossing Border into California
Ominous report from San Diego: Border Patrol agents took three suspected Palestinian terrorists into custody earlier this month after they illegally crossed the border from Mexico into California, the New York Post reported. One of the men reportedly had a “salacious...Is Open Carry Protected by 2A?
About a month ago the video at left was posted by Mark Smith of the Four Boxes Diner channel who, like me and quite a few other attorneys, is a member of the US Supreme Court bar, a fact I know only because he actually introduces himself as such in the first few...Supreme Court in US v Rahimi Departs from Bruen While Giving it Lip Service
The US Supreme Court today released its 8-1 decision in US v Rahimi, holding that: When an individual has been found by a court to pose a credible threat to the physical safety of another, that individual may be temporarily disarmed consistent with the Second...FBI Memo Urged Police Not to Release Nashville Shooter Manifesto
An FBI memo sent shortly after the Covenant School shooting urged police not to release the Nashville shooter manifesto to the public. Reasons given: future mass attackers would learn and copy methods; such “legacy tokens” are often misleading and not...Supreme Court Rules Bump Stocks are NOT Machine Guns
A few days ago (June 14, 2024) in Garland v Cargill, the US Supreme Court in a 6-3 decision ruled that bump stocks are not machine guns. Actually, the Court ruled they are not “machineguns” and the Court uses that single word throughout the opinion as that...How Does Concealed Carrying of Weapons Affect Violent Crime?
Although most research finds that concealed carry reduces violent crime, several recent studies claim to show that concealed carry increases violent crime. In a new study linked here, Professors Lott and Moody analyze three possible causes for the supposed increase,...Seven Types of Gun Trusts
Here is a quick overview of seven major types of gun trusts: Trust Mill NFA Trust: This is a “simple” (sometimes shockingly simple) “cookie-cutter” type boilerplate trust designed for purchase of firearms and/or suppressors regulated under the...Benitez Blasts Bonta’s Billy Ban as Unconstitutional
Federal Judge Roger Benitez in the case of Fouts v Bonta recently ruled California’s longtime ban on billy clubs (defined vaguely and potentially including many types of objects, for example any stick intended as a weapon) as an unconstitutional infringement of...Crime Reports Plummet as Arrest Rates Plummet as Police Ignore Crime
Is violent crime really falling? Police have their hands full depriving you of your right to bear arms. Do you expect them to arrest real criminals that fight back? Not lately, and that is why there is a huge drop in the reporting of violent crime. No point in...Americans Own a Billion Magazines, Over 70% Hold More Than Ten Rounds
More evidence that so-called “standard capacity” is not at all standard, and that so-called “high capacity” is actually standard: NSSF’s Detachable Magazine Report (1990-2021) found an estimated total of 963,772,000 ammunition magazines in...Another Mass Stabbing in a Nation (Australia) with Severe Gun Restrictions
Mass stabbing at Sydney shopping mall. Australia severely restricts the natural right to bear arms, and the result is what you would expect: six killed, many more injured. Stopped by a female police officer’s gun, but not in time to prevent horrific death and...85 year old Mom Kills Intruder with .357 Magnum
An 85-year-old Idaho mother, after an intruder apparently gave her a bloody strike in the head while she lay in bed and then handcuffed her to a chair in her living room, dragged herself (along with the chair) back into her bedroom to retrieve a .357 magnum revolver....No Guns Used in 92% of Violent Crime
Guns are synonymous with violent crime in the minds of many. Why? Constant anti-gun propaganda. People are brainwashed. The reality is that 92% of violent crime does not involve any use of firearms in the commission of the crime. Guns are what violent criminals fear...There Has Never Been a School Shooting Where Armed Teachers Allowed
Despite all the leftist rhetoric against arming teachers, there has never been a school shooting at a school where armed teachers are allowed to carry a firearm for defense of themselves and students. This should not be surprising to anyone who follows mass attacks,...Get My Estate Planning Book Free with Maintenance Plan
Another large shipment of books arrived! Clients who participate in our Client Maintenance Plan get my “Estate Planning Strategies” book free. And my maintenance plan itself is free if you pass the handgun skills test using the free training i provide....Leftist Attack on Youth Gun Training Fails
Last week the Ninth Circuit denied en banc hearing in Junior Sports Magazines, Inc. v. Bonta, saving youth gun training from destruction by a leftist attack on gun culture. While there has not yet been a decision on the merits of the case, denial of en banc let stand...CA State Parks Does Not Restrict CCW
[UPDATE: For some reason, this post still gets a ton of traffic. For an update on the federal preliminary injunction against SB2, you might want to click here.] Does California State Parks allow licensed concealed carry (CCW) of a firearm at state parks and beaches?...Fed Judge Enjoins Unconstitutional CA Ammo Restrictions
[UPDATE: Ninth Circus issued a stay today of the injunction by Judge Benitez. Not totally unexpected, but this particular circus is fast losing credibility. The State has ZERO chance of winning on the merits under the text/history test mandated by Bruen. Furthermore,...Fed Judge Enjoins Unconstitutional CA Concealed Carry Place Restrictions
How does all of this make you feel about relying on politics and the courts to protect your family? How can the government be so fickle with your right to life? Maybe it’s time your family takes control, with a F.I.R.S.T. Family Trust? [GOOD NEWS 01/06/2024: On...Stance on Stance? Diversity in Firearm Training
What is your stance on stance? A prominent local CCW instructor saw me using my favorite default shooting stance — Modified Weaver — and told me “no one” uses it anymore. He runs large classes and apparently teaches only Isosceles, the stance...Noisome Signs SB2, Establishing Opportunity Zones for BLM, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda
After failure to pass a similar bill last year, Gov. Noisome recently signed into law SB2, which makes a concealed carry license more difficult and expensive to get, and basically worthless once you get it. But there is an upside for some: new opportunity zones for...Israel Gun Ownership Only 2%, Lack of Gun Culture Threatens Families
[UPDATE: Gun sales and license applications are now surging in Israel. Imagine that. Almost like LA, the day after a riot. Does the same thing happen with fire extinguishers?] Israel gun ownership is only 2%. By contrast, over half of Americans own guns. It is not a...CRPA Mag Must Retract Erroneous Bulletin Slamming Gun Trusts
The March/April 2023 edition of the bimonthly magazine “California Firing Line”, published by the California Rifle & Pistol Association (CRPA), includes an “Information Bulletin” at pages 19-24 entitled Firearm Estate Planning —...No Death Penalty for NM Gov. Grisham, Thanks to Gun Orgs

Graham warns that if there is no presidential immunity, Biden could be prosecuted for murder of girls recently raped by illegals.] New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham says Republicans should thank her for all the fundraising they are able to do as...FBI Massively Underreports Cases Where Armed Citizens Stop Active Shooters (> 63.5%)
John Lott’s Crime Prevention Research Center recently compiled evidence (here) showing that the FBI is massively understating the number of active shooter incidents that are stopped by private armed citizens. Dr Lott points to systemic reasons why this might be...
