Responsible gun owners defended themselves, but you didn't hear it in the news. Instructor Elizabeth Hautman joins host Rob Morse to talk about three new examples.

First story- Three men approach you as you and your wife walk from the grocery store to your car. These men are armed. You’re being robbed.
Second Story- You're at home with your mom when you hear someone break into your home. You both run upstairs and hide in your bedroom. You grab your gun and retreat into a corner. A stranger breaks down your bedroom door.
Third story- You work in a convenience store. You turn around and see a man pointing a gun at the other clerk's head.

What sould you do in these situations? Text and podcast available at the link. (18 minutes)

A federal appeals court on Tuesday overturned the conviction of a Montana man who shot and killed a protected grizzly bear near Ronan in 2014, ruling that he should have been able to claim that he acted in self-defense. The three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ordered Brian Charette's case back to U.S. District Court, where he had been convicted of unlawfully taking a threatened species under the federal Endangered Species Act.

The National Rifle Association, and its lawyers, draw a line straight from the founding fathers to the modern “good guy with a gun.” In their framing, people who arm themselves with lethal weapons to defend themselves, their families, and their communities do so with the blessing of the Constitution, as evidenced by the meaning of the Second Amendment.

Dave Smith has studied bear behavior and bear attacks extensively. He has written books on how to survive bear encounters and animal attacks. I have corresponded with Dave Smith. I find Dave to be the most knowledgeable, well read, and capable critic of the current literature. Dave has worked prodigiously to understand the studies about the effectiveness of bear spray and firearms in stopping bear attacks.

Americans may never agree on what the Second Amendment means, or what role the U.S. military should play in the world. But those who want to see fewer guns and bombs can go beyond angry Facebook posts and vote with their money, using a new online tool called Weapon Free Funds. Created by activist organizations As You Sow and Codepink, the project analyzed 3,000 of the most popular U.S. mutual funds for their investment in weaponry.

Heller was the plaintiff in District of Columbia v. Heller (2008). He brought a case against D.C.’s draconian gun ban, and the Supreme Court of the United States struck down the ban, simultaneously reaffirming that the right to keep and bear arms is an individual right. Listen now as AWR and Dick Heller revisit the ruling on its 10th anniversary and discuss why we need at least two more Supreme Court appointees to protect the Second Amendment.

Teaching Children About Guns

Children and firearms. Those are two words that rarely go together without making people cringe. Shock and awe tend to ensue when someone finds out that both reside in the same home. There is a mentality of “hide the firearm and don’t tell the children.” This way of thinking, however, is a recipe for disaster. Children are curious creatures. If there is something that is labeled “taboo,” they want to know why and often will try to find out. Should they somehow stumble across a firearm, they will more than likely try to learn what they can about it through hands-on experience. This is a gamble that no one should take.

If you give guns to artists, what would they do with them? The answer: They create art that comments on the neverending escalation of U.S. gun culture. An exhibit at Fairfield University — “#UNLOAD: Guns in the Hands of Artists” — is a collection of artworks made with weapons accumulated in New Orleans in a gun buyback program. The exhibit originated in the 1990s, led by artist Brian Borrello and gallery owner Jonathan Ferrara, and has been remounted and is traveling nationwide. Mary Himes and Helen Klisser During brought the exhibit to Connecticut. The two are co-founders of unloadusa.org, a nonprofit organization that uses and encourages artistic expression to open dialogue about gun culture.

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
The supposed quietude of a good mans allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside...Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them... — Thomas Paine, I Writings of Thomas Paine at 56 (1894).
