“There will always be plenty of soft targets in a free society, and it is incredibly easy to kill people, even for untrained operatives. In this case, the brothers conducted an attack that was within their capabilities rather than attempting something more grandiose that would require outside assistance — and which could therefore have put them in jeopardy of running into a government informant as they sought help. It is thus important for citizens to practice good situational awareness and to serve as grassroots defenders against the grassroots threat.” Boston Bombing Suspects: Grassroots Militants from Chechnya [via Stratfor]

  2. That looks like a whole lot of fail, and a bunch of liability suits, all in one convenient package. Didn’t they run this product by their legal staff?

  3. KelTec PF9.
    Had to smith it myself after 300 rds.
    Thought at the time about a Kahr, but said an extra $150 is too much. I blew it.
    H&R cheapie 870. It is built to last, but it shoots sideways. My hold over with slugs at 25 yds is two feet left.

  5. This one is easy. If the homeowner was armed, as I would have been, a couple of quick bullets in the terrorist would have been a whole lot safer than inviting several hundred kitted up LEOs over for a firefight.
