How Ukrainians Remember Charlie Kirk
The assassination of Charlie Kirk is so shocking, it is certainly a turning point for US culture and politics. The horror is captured in the graphic blood-spurting video at left, included here not for shock value but to honor the man. That’s not a gun in his...Goebner Allows Demurrer Until Initial Hearing in Probates
A California appellate court ruled in Groebner v Super. Ct. that in a probate case a demurrer can be filed at any time at or before the initial hearing.

Not saying we need to ban all cars. But this one was an SUV. And it was BLACK. Made with GERMAN precision. Probably not even electric.

Democrat Senator (and former VP candidate) Tim Kaine shockingly rejected the self-evident Truth, stated in our Declaration of Independence, that our rights come from God rather than government. Is it not crystal clear that the Democrat Party is the party of godless...Chicom Docs Executing Prisoners to Harvest Organs
Quite a hot mic moment on CCTV in Beijing today as Putin and Xi, both 72 years old, are caught casually talking about living to 150 and maybe forever thanks to organ transplants. (As picked up by Bloomberg.) pic.twitter.com/kC4VTRaobq— Yaroslav Trofimov...Tony Bennett’s Estate an Example of Why You Don’t Put One Child In Charge of Administration
Almost every estate planning client has family protection as a major if not primary legacy goal. The worst legacy you can leave is to leave your children fighting each other. Looks like that’s what Tony Bennett did, because he put his trust in one child to...Armed Hero Stops Mass Stabbing at Michigan Walmart
A hero armed with his self-defense handgun joined with several other bystanders to actively subdue the attacker in a mass stabbing at a Michigan Walmart.

Assassination culture continues to spread after study shows 56% of Left (those who self-identify as being left-of-center) wants President Trump assassinated.

Non-charitable purpose trusts are gaining attention as an alternative structure for business succession planning. Traditional estate planning will often give control to family members, or maybe some of them, in varying degrees, usually through some combination of...Satanic Video by Leftist Assault Tranny Catholic School Shooter Minnesota Robin

This post is a brief review of Mark Levin’s new book “On Power”, which i downloaded on Audible. In short, the book is mercifully short, but it’s also great, like all of Mark’s books. In fact, it might be the greatest. I say that because...Happy No Kings Day, America! (Tax Bill Signed!)
Happy No Kings Day! Happy Independence Day! Happy Fourth of July, America!

Not to be confused with my own lawful drawing of a red gun at a candidates forum (over which I filed a federal suit, entry of judgment expected soon in my favor), another Morro Bay man drew a bayonet at a city council meeting. I haven’t seen his speech and i...Man Sentenced for Attempted Murder of Pismo Beach Cop Loaded Rounds Backwards in Mag
I should probably have a “Dumb Criminals” category but as an estate planner i’ll stick with “Dying Embarrassed”. This man was convicted of attempted murder because, even though he pointed his semi-auto handgun at a Pismo Beach cop’s...US Persons and Entities Now Exempt from Corporate Transparency Act BOI Reporting
Pursuant to new interim final rule issued by FINCEN on March 21, 2025, US persons and entities are now exempt from Beneficial Ownership Interest (BOI) reporting under the Corporate Transparency Act.

As my practice matures and I take on more high-net-worth clients, it’s amazing how poor the estate planning is among some of these families. Sometimes, there is no planning at all! In other cases, there is very simple cookie-cutter planning, which is always bad...Atty Dave Duringer on Hometown Radio with Dave Congalton KVEC 920AM 20241203
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. .

Noisome’s ‘Deepfakes’ Law Making Political Humor Illegal in California

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.

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),...Ohio Democrat Sen. Sherrod Brown Accepted Donations from Dead Woman
This would appear to be illegal: Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) accepted campaign donations from a woman who died several months prior, records that the New York Post obtained revealed Friday. Carol Ann Baker of Elmore died at the age of 77 on December 10, 2023, at a...California Dad Fights Off Mountain Lion That Dragged 5-Year-Old Son by the Head

To you, your pet may be “Fluffy”. To someone else, your pet may be dinner. How big is the threat posed by Asian or Haitian cuisine? Probably not huge, depending where you live.

I’ve noticed this trend in comments from colleagues on our estate planning attorney online...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.

(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...Ahem… American Housing and Economic Mobility Act of 2024 (AHEMA)
The American Housing and Economic Mobility Act of 2024 (AHEMA) is a giant $5 trillion tax increase now before both houses of Congress which has the potential, if Democrats end up with enough control after elections this year, to radically change estate planning. These...
