The Will To Fight
2008-06-27 08:22:00
I talked about psychological stopping in this post: The Stop. In a recent discussion with a close friend we came to agree that wars are won in the will. The military talks about "imposing your will on the battlefield" but I don't know that most people really get it. You have to deprive the enemy of the will to fight. This fundamental truth is applied in all forms of human conflict. It is a matter of dissuading participation, and raising the cost of failure. read more
SOP9 Expanded Commentary
2008-05-27 13:04:00
First I should begin by saying I have not seen the orginal SOP9 document (if anyone has a link to it I would like to get a hold of it.) So my comments are based on the analysis done here NYPD SOP 9 - Analysis of Police Combat The bulk of this article is an endorsement of point shooting. Much of the SOP9 material here is used as a justification of point shooting. I am not a point shooting advocate, and I don't see any evidence here to change my mind. We would like to see granular data that gives a picture of the hit rate for officers using a crouch in low light conditions at some particular distance. What we have instead is a mixture of point shooting and aimed fire under a range of different conditions. read more

Tip, who is awaiting sentencing later this year, still couldn't go into the specifics of his case, but he did trounce rumors that range from ridiculous (he was arming up for some type of pre-emptive strike) to more realistic (he had some heavy beef in the streets).

The Indonesian Police have confiscated Molotov cocktails, self-made firearms and bullets as well as sharp weapons from a students' dormitory in South Sulawesi, an officer said Wednesday.

Citi Merchant Services and First Data Corp. are refusing to process any credit card transactions between federally licensed firearms retailers, distributors and manufacturers — a move which will severely limit available inventory of firearms and ammunition to military, law enforcement and law-abiding Americans. The first company to be affected by this decision appears to be firearms distributor CDNN Sports Inc. “We were contacted recently by First Data/Citi Merchant Services by a June Rivera-Mantilla stating that we were terminated and funds were being seized for selling firearms in a non-face-to-face transaction,” said Charlie Crawford, president of CDNN Sports Inc. “Although perfectly legal, we were also informed that no transactions would be processed in the future, even for non-firearms.

Bahamas Record-breaking Murder Rate Directly Linked To Illegal Firearms
2008-01-05 00:32:00
Murder rate linked to illegal guns: By KRYSTEL ROLLE and INDERIA SAUNDERS, Guardian Staff Reporters - Nassau, Bahamas: The sale of illegal firearms on the nation's streets has been directly linked to the record-breaking murder count of 2007, a senior police officer revealed yesterday. Superintendent Glen Miller, officer in charge of the Central Detective Unit, said there is definitely a correlation between the proliferation of firearms and last year's high murder count, as statistics show that more than half of the murders were committed using guns. "We've seen that in 40 of these murders a handgun was used, and seven used shotguns. So we're talking about 47 matters with firearms alone. That certainly is an indication that the illegal guns are being used to commit serious crimes such as murder." Last year approximately 59 percent of the murders were committed with guns listed as the weapon of choice. The Guardian's records also showed that 47 of the 79 murders recorde...

An American Warning - Firearms in the hands of citizens.
2007-11-21 15:56:00
What about the Second Amendment? A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. For some reason this amendment has been a source of controversy for many years. I really can't imagine why. As with anything our founding fathers wrote, they left us proof that tell us how they wanted us to proceed and what exactly they meant. To begin with, I think the militia part of this amendment was the after thought, not the people. To me it is clear that our founding fathers expected the people to have firearms but wanted to make sure that a militia could be formed by the people. You have to remember that King George didn?t allow militias. He did however allow firearms in times of peace. It wasn?t until the colonialists began to rise up that George began to take firearms away. A militia is simply a citizen army; a military organization formed by local citizens to serve in times of emergencies who...
