Armed Suspect Has Day Ruined Thanks To Columbus Man’s Quick Action.
12:00 pm May/5/18 by Micah Rate
Columbus police officers are hailing a Columbus man as a hero after he tripped up an armed suspect.
According to NBC 4, the man, who goes by the name of “Bill,” was outside of the Columbus library when he noticed a man running toward him with his right hand in his waistband. Not far behind the suspect was a police van and a police officer on foot.
On security camera footage “Bill” is seen taking a few quick glances in the suspect’s direction, as he prepares to make his move in an attempt to slow the man down.
Instead of using the cane in his left hand, “Bill” stretches his right leg out just as the suspect is about to pass him. The move pays off, as the suspect’s foot meets “Bill’s” leg with perfect timing, sending the man sprawling across the sidewalk and giving him a little taste of concrete.
More importantly, “Bill’s” slick move caused the suspect to drop his Glock 9mm, giving officers enough time to close in and slap the handcuffs on him with no harm coming to them or the suspect.
From NBC 4:
Police say the move likely saved the suspect’s life and allowed police to catch up and make an arrest.
Officers recovered a Glock 9mm pistol with a magazine containing 29 rounds. The gun fell to the ground as the suspect tripped.
Police say the suspect was arrested and taken to the Franklin County Jail.
“Cetizen involvement, be it by courage, bravery and/or fancy footwork, helped take a criminal off the streets of Columbus,” said Columbus police.
Describing the situation, one officer says, “I think it all worked out pretty good. But, I mean, a millisecond different and there are shots fired.”
During what appears to be a debriefing on the event, another officer explains why responding officers didn’t immediately shoot the suspect. He states, “Their threat was not to the point where they thought this guy is maybe trying to shoot me, he’s trying to get rid of that gun.”
Though officers did not fire any shots, they came close to letting the bullets fly. As law enforcement closes in, body camera footage picks up an officer telling the suspect just how lucky he is that he’s not leaving the scene in a body bag. “You’re lucky you dropped that (expletive) gun, man,” he yells. “Boy, you almost got shot… I almost (expletive) squeezed the trigger, man.”
To which another officer replies, “I did too.”
As for the hero’s thoughts, “Bill” explains he felt it was his responsibility to act. “I just felt, as a citizen of this town I had a responsibility to act and to help… I think people are supposed to help.”
Watch the body cam and security camera footage below.

Firearm Distributor Acusport Filing For Bankruptcy.
12:00 pm May/3/18 by Tom Knighton
While people are buying guns in record numbers, it doesn’t seem to be helping a lot of companies in the firearm industry. Vista Outdoors is having trouble, for one. It’s not alone.
Now, firearm distributor Acusport is filing for bankruptcy.
To get TFB readers and gun consumers up to speed, Acusport Corporation is a distributor of firearms and related accessories within the US. They are one of a handful of distributors who assist manufacturers in getting their products to retailers and eventually to you, the consumer.
Acusport, like all of us, had rode the tumultuous roller coaster that has been the gun industry the last 10 years.
It has now come to a tipping point where a culmination of factors has forced them to voluntarily file for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.
Over the last year we have seen many manufacturers down-grade their workforce, trade hands and even go under completely. Sadly, Acusport has followed suit, but they are receiving a potential lifeline from Ellett Brothers, LLC.
Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows the company to reorganize and still, ultimately, remain in business, which is good for its customers.
While many stores use multiple distributors, some small ones may only use an outfit like Acusport. By staying in business, these stores have some much-needed breathing room. It can still get guns for sale.
It may want to line up another distributor just in case, mind you, but it’ll still be able to sell guns in the meantime.
However, Acusport seems to acknowledge that there may well be some hiccups along the way and that these hiccups might cause problems with distribution. That is not good for these smaller stores, which is why, again, it might be a good idea for them to line up another couple of distributors.
What the hell is going on in the firearm industry?
On the one hand, all evidence leads us to believe there’s not really any “Trump Slump” happening.
We’re seeing guns being sold left and right. NICS checks, the accepted proxy for gun sales, keep increasing.
But on the other hand, Acusport joins Remington in filing for bankruptcy, despite this supposed buying frenzy. While I get that everyone expected a higher demand if killary clinton was elected and prepared accordingly, it’s not like people aren’t buying guns.
How “prepared” did these companies get in the first place?
The dichotomy of the two facts still seems to make little sense.
Great gun sales for the past year should have picked up any slack from overstocking for a killary win, but companies are still struggling!
It’s enough to confuzzle anyone on the outside looking in.
In the meantime, let’s hope Acusports gets its house in order and customers never notice a problem.
The Second Amendment means little if people can’t get guns!
Having the right to do something only matters if you are able to buy them.
If Acusport’s customers have difficulty getting stock, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see how that impacts people’s access to firearms.

New NRA Ad Featuring Iconic Hero Will Leave You Speechless.
May/3/18

Published on May 3, 2018

The National Rifle Association (NRA) has released a new ad featuring Stephen Willeford, a plumber from Sutherland Springs, Texas who heroically chased and shot a deranged gunman who killed 26 people at the nearby Baptist church. Willeford, a good guy with a gun who stopped a bad guy with a guy, tells his story in the moving ad.

“My daughter came into the bedroom and she said, ‘Dad, there’s a man in black tactical gear shooting up the Baptist church,” Willeford, an NRA member, says at the start of the ad. “Every one of those shots, to me, represented one of my neighbors, one of my friends, and I ran as fast as I could.”

“Immediately, he came out of the church shooting at me,” he recalled. “He hit the truck in front of me, he hit the car behind me, he hit the house behind me, and I hit him.”

“He had an AR-15, but so did I,” Willeford continued. “It’s not the gun, it’s the heart; it’s a matter of the heart. I’m not the bravest man in the world or anything, but I was here, I was here and I could do something. And I had to do something.”

WWE Wrestler's Political Career Off to a Good Start
Glenn Jacobs, otherwise known as the masked wrestler “Kane,” has officially traded a shot at the belt for a shot at mayor.
The 51-year-old former WWE Raw professional wrestler, who went by the name “Kane,” declared victory in a tweet, saying, “Thanks to everyone who helped win this historic victory!! The people who cast a ballot for me, my great team, my wonderful volunteers. Looking forward to VICTORY in the general election!”
He won the mayoral Republican Party nomination by just 17 votes, at 14,633 to 14,616, once all precincts had reported their votes.
While Kane’s bio calls him “a monstrous abomination that seems to have been extracted directly from your childhood nightmares” and casts him as the pyromaniac half-brother to the legendary Undertaker, Glenn Thomas Jacobs has made a proverbial face-turn in his campaign to become Knox County’s next mayor.

I say that Congress needs to pass a law that ANYONE impeding the Federal immigration process or callng for an asylum needs to be imprisoned as seditious against the U.S., instead of putting them into a prison at our cost for years! 

 Sheriff Arapio had the right idea, place them in pink uniforms in tents for living and make them do hard labor, now THAT’s being in prison.

 The BS that we currently have is ridiculous and costly..and doesn’t send any message to anyone other than it’s a handslap to get caught.

 I would also arrest any organization who feeds information to the illegals coming to tell them how to get around our loopholes to get into the country….also seditious.

 

President Trump has weathered criticism from liberals that ending such programs would create chaos. The president stands firm, insisting that without borders, we do not have a country.

pukelosi's Big Announcement.

5/4/18 American Action News

House Minority Leader nancy pukelosi (D-Calif.)

 House Minority Leader nancy pukelosi (D-Calif.) wants you to know that if Democrats take back the House of Representatives, she isn't going anywhere. Sources close to her saying she was ready to hand the gavel over to another Democrat, such as Massaschusetts Rep. joe kennedy.

The Boston Globe reports:

 nancy pukelosi wants you to know she’s not going anywhere. Despite grumblings from some Democrats and dismal approval ratings, the House minority leader aims to keep an iron grip on her leadership role, saying in an interview Tuesday that she fully intends to lead House Democrats if they recapture control of the chamber in November, as many prognosticators believe is likely. 

 “We will win. I will run for speaker. I feel confident about it. And my members do, too,” pukelosi told a meeting of Globe reporters and editors. She was in Boston for a Democratic fund-raiser hosted by Representative Katherine Clark...“It’s important that it not be five white guys at the table, no offense,” Pelosi said, referring to the top two leadership spots in the House and Senate and the presidency. “I have no intention of walking away from that table.” 

 pukelosi’s determination to hang on could not delight Republicans more.

 The GOP, desperate to stave off a blue wave in November, is pounding Democrats in swing districts by linking them to the 78-year-old former speaker...And some in her own party are scrambling to disavow her.

 Speaker pukelosi has had reoccuring episodes before the press, confusing President Trump with George Bush, whose term ended nearly a decade ago, as well as stuttering excessivly. The episodes have been attributed to fatigue, and other various health concerns.

 The former speaker's name rallies Republicans, as they remember her for focing obumacare through Congress, saying infamously that "we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what's in it.” 

 Her legacy has been a burden to Democrats, and Republicans will rejoice at facing their enemy once again on midterm battlefields.

Antifa Makes Undeniable Death Threat Against President Trump.

  5/4/18  TTN by: Donny Bomenabori

 Communists aren't communists unless something is dying. Maybe that's freedom or prosperity, or maybe, in the case the May Day parade in Los Angeles, it's an effigy of President Trump. "We must carry out military actions against the enemies of the people!” a member of the L.A. cell of the Red Guards said in a speech published on their blog.
 The Antifa group called for  "revolutionary violence" against the "capitalist state" in order to "create real political power." Yes, you read that right; they are calling for armed violence in the spirit of 1917, the year the communists took power in the Soviet Union. 
​ In case you missed the 20th century, May Day is communist Christmas, when they celebrate their murderous regimes, and rage against the capitalist machine, man!
 International Workers Day, as communists call it, a day of incessant marching and complaining in capitalist countries. The Red Guards identify with Mao Zedong's Red Guards, responsible for the death of millions in the Chinese Cultural Revolution. 
  It's hardly news that somebody in Mexifornia doesn't like President Trump. It's news when bloodthirsty communists, who have a century of discredited violent history, are essentially calling for the president's execution. The left's crazy is showing, and it's a reminder why Americans rejected the left in droves back in 2016.

Border Security Along U.S. Borders.

 The United States Border Patrol is the mobile, uniformed law enforcement arm of U.S. Customs and Border Protection within the Department of Homeland Security responsible for securing U.S. borders between ports of entry.

 The Border Patrol was officially established on May 28, 1924 by an act of Congress passed in response to increasing illegal immigration.

 As mandated by this Act, the small border guard in what was then the Bureau of Immigration was reorganized into the Border Patrol. The initial force of 450 officers was given the responsibility of combating illegal entries and the growing business of alien smuggling.

Mission:

 Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the focus of the Border Patrol has changed to detection, apprehension and/or deterrence of terrorists and terrorist weapons. Although the Border Patrol has changed dramatically since its inception in 1924, its overall mission remains unchanged: to detect and prevent the illegal entry of aliens into the United States. Together with other law enforcement officers, the Border Patrol helps maintain borders that work, facilitating the flow of legal immigration and goods while preventing the illegal trafficking of people and contraband.
