Frequently Asked Questions

What led to the LA Sentinel retracting a story about Redstone Firearms?

Redstone Firearms, an African-American-owned gun business, had a positive story about their responsible gun ownership education planned with the LA Sentinel. However, the story was retracted due to political pressure from groups like 'Mothers in Action,' potentially influenced by political figures, preventing the business from reaching its community.

What are the key takeaways from the Amber Guyger case regarding self-defense?

The Amber Guyger case emphasizes the critical importance of situational awareness, avoiding unnecessary entry into potentially dangerous situations, and understanding that admitting intent to kill can negatively impact legal defense. It also highlights the need for robust legal representation and considering the full force continuum.

How can consumers effectively respond to companies that refuse to run Second Amendment-friendly advertisements?

Consumers can respond by withdrawing their financial support and time from such companies. This includes not purchasing their products or visiting their stores, and actively communicating their reasons to the companies and relevant media outlets to exert pressure.

What is the primary concern regarding firearm noise during home defense?

Both 9mm and .45 ACP firearms, commonly used for home defense, are loud enough to cause permanent hearing damage. Therefore, it is crucial to use hearing protection, such as electronic ear muffs, even during a self-defense scenario.
