A township in Michigan has declared itself a 2nd Amendment sanctuary and has invited all of the adult citizens of said township to become members of a citizens’ militia. Besides the Bill of Rights, is the existence of the militia codified by law in the United States?
During our SOTG Homeroom from Student of the Gun University, we will examine the new law allowing teachers and school staff members in Tennessee to be armed at work. Tennessee is not the first state to arm teachers, though, based upon the behavior of the leftwing lunatics you would think this move is unprecedented.
Also, during our TechTalk from EOTech Inc. Professor Paul will address the use of a .22 rimfire cartridge as a primary self-defense tool. Is the .22LR the “best choice” for women or older Americans?

What does it mean to “fight with a rifle”? How important is training when it comes to success or survival? During our SOTG Homeroom we will consider how training will open your eyes.
We have a Tech Talk from EOTech and this week we will discuss the importance of maintenance in regards to rifle or pistol mounted optical sights. Also, regarding maintenance, during our Froglube pro tip of the week we consider the cause of “sticky” or “gummy” actions.
Lastly, how many times have you heard that it's okay for cops to have guns because they are expertly trained? A 37 year veteran police officer had a negligent discharge in a school bathroom and then blamed the gun.

From www.nbc4i.com:
A lieutenant was shot and killed on Tuesday during a “tragic accident” at the Corrections Training Academy in Pickaway County.
Rodney Osborne was fatally shot just before 11 :30 a.m. at the academy’s tactical firing range, according to Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction director Annette Chambers-Smith. Osborne had served with the department for 13 years and worked at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Scioto County.
“This appears to have been a tragic accident, and the Ohio State Highway Patrol is investigating,” said Chambers-Smith. “We ask that you keep Lt. Osborne’s wife, children, loved ones, and team members in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.”
Osborne was part of the facility’s honor guard and had been named employee of the year just last week. He was also a member of the special response team and the statewide special tactics and response team. The highway patrol has yet to announce what led to the fatal shooting.

A 16-year-old boy has been arrested after a bishop and several churchgoers were stabbed during a sermon in Sydney.
The incident happened on Monday evening at the Christ The Good Shepherd Church in the suburb of Wakeley.
At least four people were stabbed but police said none of their injuries were life-threatening.
The incident triggered unrest as hundreds gathered outside the church, clashing with police - two of whom were injured.
Vehicles were damaged as people threw stones, bricks and bottles and, according to Reuters news agency, police fired pepper spray.
Witnesses said the people gathered were demanding for the attacker to be brought outside.
Police said they had responded in numbers to the incident and urged the public to keep away from the area.

Once more, we have evidence that Islamic terrorists were drugged up on captagon, the poor man’s cocaine or “chemical courage” when they slaughtered innocent people in a concert hall in Moscow. The primary question you must ask yourself is whether or not you have the skill and mindset to stand between evil and the innocent.
During our Tech Talk from EOTech, we will consider a brand new optic in the LPVO arena.  EOTech will be releasing the new VUDU X line very soon. Keep an eye out for a video review.
Also, for our SOTG Homeroom, we have a tragic incident to report. A young girl lost her life because someone chose not to use a holster and carry a naked gun. Please, please, please, stop carrying naked guns.

Dearria Radley was just 13 years old when she took her last breath. The teenager died Saturday after she was shot in what police called an accidental shooting. “It hurts so much. Oh God, Jesus.”
In a sit-down interview with News 2, DeAnn Radley made it clear how hard it was to hold back her tears.
“Losing her. Losing her. No parent wants to bury their child and this is hard; it is hard and my heart is broken in a million pieces. It’s very hard. I just want to hold my baby,” DeAnn said.

From www.thesun.co.uk/news/:
ISIS terrorists turned themselves into fearless killing machines by drugging themselves before the Moscow massacre, it is understood. The drug - a favourite of the terror group known as chemical courage - disables fear, allowing its fighters to kill without any unease.
Blood tests showed traces of the psychotropic substance, news outlet Baza - which has sources in Russian law enforcement, reports. The drug, known as Captagon pills, was previously used by Hamas brutes before they unleashed their barbaric assault on October 7 in Israel.
Four masked gunmen stormed the venue in Moscow on Friday night before showdown hundreds of innocent concert-goers.

From www.shootingnewsweekly.com:
As if we needed still another example of the dangers of creating gun-free zones, especially among a largely disarmed populace, we now have last night’s attack by rifle-wielding Islamic State terrorists on a Moscow concert hall.
As in all of these situations, initial reports are frequently confused and incorrect in their details, but something known as ISIS-K, based in Afghanistan and Turkey, carried out an assault on Moscow’s Crocus City Hall concert venue apparently killing scores of people and setting the building on fire.
The New York Times puts the number of dead at over 60, but a later AP report quotes Russian officials claiming current number 133 dead with many more wounded.
Several camouflage-clad gunmen opened fire at a popular concert venue on the outskirts of Moscow on Friday night, killing about 60 people and wounding more than 100, Russian authorities said, making it the deadliest attack in the capital region in more than a decade.
Hours after the mayhem began, the Russian national guard said its officers were still looking for the attackers. State media agencies reported that there had been up to five perpetrators.
As gunshots boomed through the building containing the concert hall, one of the largest and most popular music venues in the Moscow area, fire erupted in the upper floors of the structure, and the blaze intensified after an explosion, causing the roof to collapse.
