About being willing victims, from an Instructor:
"In Leftist philosophy, there are only dead heroes. The ultimate goal of the Left is death. Always has been! Our philosophic enemy is the delusive belief that man is a pathetic, iniquitous, incapable, leechlike being, worthy only of enslavement for his own good; with dying his only worthwhile accomplishment!
The contrary: that each man is a magnificent creation, capable of amazing feats, with the purpose of living his life to the fullest and accomplishingand contributing everything of which he is capable, is the most powerful message we can promulgate. Ultimately, if Western Civilization is to survive, this must be the essence of our moral code. At one time, it was!
Unhappily, in modern times, our society, and men in particular, has embraced the enslavement mentality. We have allowed politicians to disenfranchise us, bribing us with our own money!
"...But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future..."
Perhaps we all need to read the Declaration of Independence more often!"
Again, from Fred Douglas:
"Who profess to favor freedom, yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the roar of its many waters."

Safariland RLS (Rapid Light System):
Competing directly with Surefire's excellent X300 Weapon-Light, Safariland is now marketing their amazingly clever RLS!
The RLS fits on any under-rail-equipped pistol. However, when detached, the light is still eminently useable as a plain, hand-held flashlight. It clips on your belt and is low-profile enough to ride there. When mounted on the pistol, the light can be swung up nearly even with the barrel, on either the left or right side.
Rapid-on and rapid-off, the RLS has some real advantages, and I'm using a copy now as my main, carry light.
I have to hand it to Safariland! They've come up with a flashlight that solves a lot of problems at once!
Recommended!
