Pushback: A man arrested in Colorado City for legally open carrying his pistol has won $23K in a lawsuit against the city.
We need more people suing for these kinds of illegal actions by the police.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

However, the article closes with this quote: “If James would have resisted to the point of pulling his weapon on a police officer, there may have been a fatal mistake.”
Well, DUH. Which is why James didn’t do anything remotely close to that.
Oh, the irony. James Sorensen gave up his First Amendment right to speak about the incident in order to uphold his Second Amendment right to open carry.
More irony: the incident happened right after a gun-free zone had been shot up, killing and injuring dozens. It is the gun-free zones that are the most vulnerable. Schools, malls, theaters, military bases get shot up on a regular basis, these days, but how often is it that a police station is the scene of a shooting? We keep adding more gun-free zones, and more and more often they are scenes of shootings. That park was safer than the theater was *because* he let everyone know that he carried.
