OAKLAND (KPIX 5) – Oakland’s crime problems have gotten so bad that some people aren’t even bothering to call the cops anymore; instead, they’re trying to solve and prevent crimes themselves. http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2013/02/26/arcadia-park-residents-policing-their-streets-as-they-lose-faith-in-opd/

Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke Releases New Pro Gun Radio Ad, Calls Guns the Great Equalizer

http://www.inquisitr.com/551243/milwaukee-sheriff-david-clarke-releases-new-pro-gun-radio-ad-listen/#BmZohwm2F2yGuGXz.18 Milwaukee, WI — Sheriff David Clarke, who made national headlines with his controversial public service announcement about skipping 911 and getting a gun instead, has cut a new pro-gun radio ad. In the first ad, he recommended that Milwaukee County citizens take a firearms training course so that they can be prepared to defend themselves against intruders rather than hiding under the bed and waiting for the overworked cops to arrive. The new 30-second spot, which aired for the first time today, alludes to a gun in the hands of a law-abiding citizen as a “great equalizer.”

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/02/23/appeals-court-upholds-concealed-weapons-ruling/ DENVER – A federal appeals court has ruled that permits allowing people to carry concealed weapons are not protected by the Second Amendment. The ruling by the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals was issued Friday in a case involving Washington state resident Gray Peterson. A federal judge in 2011 tossed out Peterson’s lawsuit filed against Denver and the state’s Department of Public Safety. Peterson claims that being denied a concealed weapons permit because he was not a Colorado resident violated his Second Amendment rights to bear firearms.
