South Carolina Castle Doctrine Reviewed: A man's home may be his castle 
in South Carolina but for self-defense purposes, so is his car, his 
business and the tent he's pitched in the woods. The law covers store 
owners defending their businesses and drivers in their vehicles who 
might face a carjacking.

Lawyers Against The RKBA: In a report released today, Legal Community 
Against Violence (LCAV) presents a comprehensive, national review of 
federal, state and selected local laws on more than twenty topics 
covering all major areas of gun policy. "Regulating Guns in America - An 
Evaluation and Comparative Analysis of Federal, State and Selected Local 
Gun Laws," is a first-of-its-kind publication designed for public 
officials and advocates working to reduce gun violence across the 
country. (I find it intriguing that California is listed among nine 
states that "presently provide local jurisdictions broad authority to 
regulate firearms" when regulation of deadly weapons is pre-empted by 
the state - that statement says a lot about the integrity of LCAV.)

restaurant in New York State was no-billed by a grand jury in an 
incident where he shot a fired employee as the man attacked him with his 
fists. (Note how the former employee's history of aggression appears to 
have influenced the grand jury.)

Is The Revolver Obsolete? Teddy Jacobson reprises an article by Stephen 
Camp on the old debate of revolver vs. autoloader. Conspicuously absent 
is the concept of a second revolver, not only as the fastest reload but 
also to keep a gun accessible to either hand.
