This week in Guns & Patriots...
Neil W. McCabe, Editor

Dear Guns & Patriots readers,

It is impossible to understand the flush of emotions for Americans who lived through both the Japanese strike on Pearl Harbor and the Sept. 11 Attacks. It was not supposed to ever happen again. It did, and it will again.

The old World War II song went: "Let's remember Pearl Harbor as we did the Alamo/Let's remember Pearl Harbor as we go to meet the foe/We will always remember those who died for Liberty!/Let's remember Pearl Harbor—and go on to Victory!"

To remember and commemorate, we have put together a slideshow of historical photos to help maintain Dec. 7's context. Our Go button will take you to the Pearl Harbor National Park and our video this week is a Castle Films newsreel detailing the scope and scale of the attack with Navy footage.

Also this week, I want to point out our sponsor: The Elevation Group. Knowledge is power and with them, knowledge is profits, too. The Elevation Group is a new-look financial organization based on the lessons of the current economic collapse. Check out how their 2011 predictions fared and hear their forecasts for 2012. Good stuff.

Let me also mention our new free gun and accessory inventory software program: GunCount. There were tons of downloads in the last week, and we only heard two problems. The first was mistyped email addresses, which was easy enough to track down and fix. The second problem was trusting the Adobe Air program, which combines into one action, the download, unzip and installation. You just need to trust that it is as easy as it is.

Otherwise, the feedback has been off the charts. Thank you for your generous words. Many people were involved in making theGunCount a reality—and when you finally release a project to the world, there is the anxiety of wondering if it would really catch on. So far, so great!

If you have not tried it yet, download it here.

In this week's issue, we look at W. Mitt Romney's record on gun rights in Massachusetts, the bizarre case of an Air Force female major, who nearly cost us the use of an overseas air base and my interview with David Bellavia, an Iraqi War hero who is helping the families of the "Intrepid 13" bring their remains home with honor—and more!

As a special bonus, we have Brian H. Darling's article on Europeans and Gun Rights that he wrote for the UK's Daily Mail that they then pulled down in less than 24 hours for being too dangerous. We talk about it, too on this week's podcast, along with my interview with Stephen Russell, the officer in charge of the task force hunting Saddam Hussein about his new book "We Got Him!"

Enjoy,

Excerpt: "During the first attack by Japanese airplanes on the Naval Air Station, Kaneohe Bay, Territory of Hawaii, on December 7, 1941, he promptly secured and manned a .50 caliber machine gun mounted on an instruction stand in a completely exposed section of the parking ramp, which was under heavy enemy machine gun strafing fire. Although painfully wounded many times, he continued to man this gun and to return the enemy's fire vigorously..."... Read More

To legally own a gun in the nation's capital, you have to take a gun safety class from a D.C.-certified instructor. Whether you have owned your guns (in another state) for 20 years or never touched one before (like me), you must take four hours of classroom instruction and one hour at the shooting range before Washington will let you register your gun...

"It's been five years since former Air Force poster girl Jill Metzger claimed she was kidnapped in Kyrgyzstan and escaped to freedom by running 30 miles barefoot after "overpowering" one of her guards. No such abductors were ever found, despite millions of taxpayer dollars expended on a massive hunt for people that many of our readers at MilitaryCorruption.com believe don't exist... Read More

"Dan Mitchell of the Cato Institute in the United States has raised a very interesting issue for those who believe that a complete collapse of European society is inevitable. Mitchell wrote a piece titled 'European Economic Crisis Highlights an Increasingly Important Reason to Oppose Gun Control' where he argued that many of the not so rich in Europe may need to arm themselves for personal protection in anticipation of a possible economic collapse. I agree..."... Read More

I had an epiphany on liberal media bias. They're the real bigots they accuse the conservative right of being. Think about it. The media goes out to destroy with unbridled tenacity any conservative woman or minority: Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain--even going back to Clarence Thomas--they all became targets...

An objection, of a nature different from that which has been stated and answered, in my last address, may perhaps be likewise urged against the principle of legislation for the individual citizens of America. It may be said that it would tend to render the government of the Union too powerful, and to enable it to absorb those residuary authorities, which it might be judged proper to leave with the States for local purposes...
