GRE Round Up for Feb. 21

There's some good stuff being turned out. I hope you're availing yourself of it, and importantly, sharing these links.

A common complaint is media bias and absence of representation for "our side."

These people work hard to change that and ask for nothing from those of us their labors serve other than to help spread the word. I hope no one thinks that's too much to ask.

Here are their latest offerings:

Steve D. Jones/Fort Smith:
Fort Smith National Historic Site will allow firearm carry Monday, February 22

Liston Matthews/Knoxville:
TN candidates respond to gun rights quiz - TN 3rd US District: Irion

TN candidates take the gun rights quiz

John Longenecker/Los Angeles:
Safer Streets 2010: Still Schooling Bill O'Reilly, Part II.

Safer Streets 2010: Will Bill O'Reilly apologize to the folks?

Also note Austin GRE Howard Nemerov has a piece in Pajamas Media:
National Parks Are Safer with Right to Carry Law
