@TroyCurtisHunt @toushin1 Troy, beautiful example. Do you happen to know more about these firearms? I recently came into possession of one and I do not know to much about it. I do believe the one I have is a slightly older model than your because mine does not have the "bulb" in trigger guard.

I love Japanese matchlocks, especially the big bore o zutsu. I hope someday to add one to my collection. For the present, here is the only Japanese gun currently in my collection: A Nambu Type 14 officer's pistol produced at the Nagoya Arsenal in 1939 (Showa 14). It was taken by a US Marine Tech Sergeant on Saipan in 1944. It also is fully functional, and I have fired it.

銃の写真を貼ったらアメリカの方が見てくださると聞いたので。 現代のハイテクな銃は残念ながらありませんが数百年前の中ならたくさんありますので良かったら見ていってください。 一応、美術品という扱いですが私達が持っているこの類の銃はほとんどすべてが実際に射撃可能な状態に保たれています。

Since 1950, electeds receive 120 days each year to devise and vote on growing Colorado's parasitic state government. The are almost no laws out of the hundreds passed each year which cannot be resolved at a local level instead.

I'm glad that the horrific Taliban regime finally released Pueblo resident Dennis Coyle on March 24, 2026, after 421 days of mostly solitary confinement. I'm happy for him and his family although I find it interesting that the public Colorado voter roll shows he cast a vote in the November 2024 general election in Colorado but given that he was living in Kabul for roughly a year before he was detained by Taliban intelligence on January 27, 2025, and he doesn't appear to have been a UOCAVA voter, I'm curious as how he was able to do so?

Okay, time to explain guns to our new friends. Every day, when I leave the house, I attach a holstered handgun to my belt, under my shirt or coat. I would no more leave the house without a gun than I would walk around outdoors without shoes. Is it because I "need" a gun? No. I live in rural Tennessee, which is state in the American south. It's very safe here. The dangerous parts of America are big cities where the local government is leftist, and they shelter illegal migrant from the third world, and won't send violent criminals to prison. Places like Chicago and New York City. Yet, any time I leave the house, I put on a gun, knowing that I will probably never have to use it, and if I do, it will probably be on an aggressive stray dog, not a human. So why do I do it? Why do many other people who live around me do it? Why do we do this so much that carrying a gun is considered totally normal? If someone spotted it, it would not even arouse a comment, much less any fear. In fact, it is legal to carry a gun openly here, without covering it up. Covering it up is just considered polite. So.... why? Well, try thinking of an English nobleman, during the reign of Elizabeth the First. When he dressed to go ride to court, he would hang a slender fencing sword, called a rapier or smallsword, from his belt. He didn't expect to be attacked. He didn't even expect to fight a duel. And if he was challenged to a duel, he wouldn't need his sword right then. He would meet his challenger later at an agreed-upon place and time. No, he wore his sword because it was an expression of who he was. He was a gentleman, a person of status, with the legal privilege of carrying a sword. By carrying a sword, he asserted his rights and prerogatives as a nobleman. In Japan, you had the same sort of thing happening. The samurai, members of the bushi class, wore the two swords not because they expected to be attacked at any moment, but because the two swords were an essential part of who he was. So, in these two cases, weapons were carried by noblemen as an assertion of status. They had the right to do so, and they did so in order to assert, exercise, and retain the right. Americans carry guns because every American citizen is a nobleman. When we fought the British for our independence, that war began on April 19th, 1775, when British troops, fearing American rebelliousness, marched out from Boston to confiscate guns from people living in the surrounding countryside. Our ancestors did not submit to this. We shot them instead, and they fled back to Boston with their tails between their legs, to cower under the cover of the guns from the warship HMS Sommerset. Thus began several years of war. And when we won that war, we made a country where no government, and no man, would ever be allowed to disarm the people. No agent of the government may say to us, "I may have a gun, and you may not." Because to say that is to say "I am a nobleman, and you are a peasant. I am a master, and you are a slave." We are not peasants here. We are all noblemen. That is the most basic principle of what it means to be an American. I can be impoverished, so I can to be so poor that I live in a van down by the river. But however reduced my circumstances, as an American, I still have the rights and freedoms of a nobleman, of a daimyo, because that is the basic founding idea of the nation we forged on that day. If you come to America to visit, if you walk among us, you will pass many people carrying guns. You will not notice this. You will not see them. You will witness no violence. Everything will be normal. But the guns will be there. Because that is who we are. We don't carry guns to be violent. We don't wish to be rude, or to intimidate people. We keep our guns covered up. But they are the deepest, most essential part of what it means to be American.

A Northeast Coloradan’s Thought For the Day…The most terrifying 15 words to sane natives of this state: “I’m an urban Democrat politician from the Colorado state government, and I’m here to help.” Please quit crapping on us, @GovofCO @COSenDem & @COHouseDem You. Keep. Making. Things. Worse. 🐂 💩

As a disenfranchised former Democrat, let me say it loud and clear… I do not want watered down, meet me in the middle legislators fighting for our state. I know where I stand, I know where my values lie and I will not be ashamed nor will I try to appease those that have brought nothing but ruin to our state.

@pweiser Emphasizing trauma-informed approaches can truly transform public safety strategies. How do we ensure consistent implementation?

At the Colorado Black Roundtable today, I discussed the need for a trauma-informed approach to public safety. This concept animates my plans for keeping Colorado safer--and violence prevention. You can read more here: philforcolorado.com/a-safety-plan-…

@pweiser Being a victim of crime is traumatic. The majority of victims of violent crime are black. The majority of perpetrators are repeat offenders. If "Trauma Informed" means imprisoning repeat offenders, DO IT!

.@Meta has confirmed that the suspension of our ad account on Friday morning was due to a "spike in negative feedback." Not anything wrong with any particular ad. All of which they had to approve before they went live. So met their policy guidelines. In my heart of hearts I believe the spike was due to @elonmusk tweeting about us (via @Riley_Gaines_ ). There simply is no reason the haters went on the attack (more than usual) at that particular moment. Meta provided some input to help us try to avoid this kind of spike in the future. While nice of them to try to help us stay live, will you just look at this: One piece of advice: "Stand up for women's sports" is ok to say. "Stand up for women" is probably not. It will trigger the haters, they tell us. Could the misogyny be more obvious? @elonmusk help a girl out and trigger them again. @jk_rowling you too. Trigger them all day long.

Between record high temps and record low snowpack, Colorado is a tinder box. This summer may be a race between Mother Nature and our Dem leadership to see who can burn the state down faster.

I believe, like 99.9% sure, that Tabor existed almost 10 years ago when the Dems were not in a majority. During that time our state had a surplus. Accountability for your own party’s bad spending behavior would be nice for once. You all are like a broke college student that thinks a credit card means free cash.
