Arizona Senate Bill 1424 has passed the Senate 17 -2, and has passed in the House Education Committee and the House Rules Committee. The bill creates a requirement for school districts and charter schools to provide age-appropriate firearm safety awareness training in all grades kindergarten - 12 grade.
The instruction is to be objective, and not promote firearms ownership or any political position. The instruction is to be limited to accident prevention and personal safety awareness. It is to include guidance on safe firearms storage in homes and vehicles. The instruction is to give guidance on what to do if a firearm is encountered, to include not touching the firearm and to notify an adult. Inside the bill there is a long list of restrictions about six things which may not be included in the instruction:
3. NOT INCLUDE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:
(a) A LIVE FIREARM.
(b) AMMUNITION OR SIMULATED AMMUNITION.
(c) A DEMONSTRATION THAT INVOLVES HANDLING, OPERATING, LOADING, UNLOADING OR FIRING A FIREARM.
(d) INSTRUCTION THAT IS INTENDED TO TRAIN STUDENTS IN THE USE OF FIREARMS.
(e) A MORAL JUDGMENT REGARDING LAWFUL FIREARM POSSESSION.
(f) AN INQUIRY, SURVEY OR REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ABOUT WHETHER A STUDENT, STUDENT'S PARENT OR MEMBER OF THE STUDENT'S HOUSEHOLD OWNS, POSSESSES OR MAY POSSESS A FIREARM OR ABOUT THE FIREARMS STORAGE PRACTICES OF A STUDENT, STUDENT'S PARENT OR MEMBER OF THE STUDENT'S HOUSEHOLD.
The Arizona Citizens Defense League (AZCDL) (this correspondent is a member), supports the legislation. This correspondent did not find a formal statement of opposition against the bill. An advocate for gun storage legislation made the argument the legislature should pass a bill requiring safe storage of guns instead. The bill is considered a partisan bill, supported mostly by Republicans, according to Legiscan. Fatal firearms accidents have declined by over 94% since 1933. The number of firearms per person has increased about 3X during that period. On average, about 61 children die each year in firearms accidents. About 168 children die each year in accidents involving glass tabletops. About as many children die from accidents involving 5 gallon buckets as die in fatal firearms accidents. More children are killed in accidents involving bicycles than are killed in accidents involving firearms. Firearms are one of many hazards children encounter while they grow up.
Analysis: The bill is likely to pass the Arizona legislature, which is narrowly controlled by Republicans. Republicans have a 17 to 13 advantage in the Senate and a 31 to 29 advantage in the House. SB 1424 might avoid Governor Hobbs (D) veto, but it seems unlikely. Governor Katie Hobbs has earned a reputation for the number of vetoes she has given. Governor Hobbs is facing serious re-election challenges. She might sign SB 1424 to claim she is not against rights protected by the Second Amendment.
SB 1424 severely restricts what may be taught to students. This may be necessary to obtain passage in a legislature with a very small majority of Republicans.
The bill is a step toward more comprehensive knowledge about firearms safety. It makes students more aware of firearms. It has the advantage of not being overtly against the ownership or use of firearms. As "age appropriate" instruction about firearms safety, later grade levels might be able to include information about the legal status of firearms in Arizona. It is difficult for people to obey the law if they do not know what the law is. Firearms are one of many potentially hazardous items children encounter while they grow up.
It is far better to gun proof the child than to attempt to create a gun free environment.

According to the criminal complaint, the victim was sleeping in her bed when she woke up to someone beating on her door and ringing the doorbell. This happened on 18th Street in Brownsville.
The criminal complaint said Rosiek broke a window with a brick and came in through the front door.
Police say he went to the victim's bedroom and started yelling at her.
They say he blocked her doorway, and that's when the victim fired several shots, hitting him in the leg and side of the head.
The complaint says he chased her — and they started fighting — until she was able to run outside to police.
The homeowner told police he was sleeping when he heard noises from the back of his home, then saw an unknown woman inside.
The homeowner stated that when the woman said she wanted to buy his residence, that’s when he shot her.
The woman told police she was shot after she entered the residence through the unlocked back door.
MPD states that the woman is experiencing mental health issues.
The woman was transported to the hospital in non-critical condition and subsequently taken into custody.

Like a lot of teenagers of my generation, I played a Role-Playing Game (RPG) called Dungeons and Dragons (“D&D“.) The majority of the players in our smallish-town D&D group were Christians, so we downplayed the wizardry aspect, and concentrated on adventure and combat. We also shunned most cosplay and Live-Action Roleplaying. (“LARPing”.) This was in the late 1970s, so we had access to just the small-format Chainmail book and the first three D&D boxed-set rulebooks developed by Gary Gygax, et al.

Baird v. Bonta (9th Cir. 2026):
For most of American history, open carry has been the default manner of lawful carry for firearms. It remains the norm across the country—more than thirty states generally allow open carry to this day, including states with significant urban populations. 1 Indeed, several of our Nation’s largest cities and states recently returned to unlicensed open carry by explicitly authorizing it. For example, Texas reauthorized open carry without a license in 2021. 2 Kansas likewise transitioned back to allowing open carry without a permit in 2015. 3 And other states that placed restrictions on open carry in recent decades have also removed those burdens.4 Similarly, for the first 162 years of its history open carry was a largely unremarkable part of daily life in California. From 1850, when California first became a state, until the Mulford Act of 1967, public carry of firearms in California (open or concealed) was entirely unregulated. And when California first deviated (or considered deviating) from this practice, its reasons for doing so were less than morally exemplary. The first restriction on public carry that California contemplated was a concealed-carry ban in 1856—which was intended to apply only to “Mexicans,” who were considered dangerous. See The Rise and Fall of California’s First Concealed-Carry Law, NRA Institute for Legislative Action (Jan. 1, 2013) (citing John David Borthwick, “THREE YEARS IN CALIFORNIA” (1857); Roger D. McGrath, GUNFIGHTERS, HIGHWAYMEN, & VIGILANTES: VIOLENCE ON THE FRONTIER (1984)), https://www.nraila.org/articles/20130101/the-rise-and-fallof-californias-first-concealed-carry-law.
Eventually, in 1967 California first criminalized the peaceful open carrying of a loaded handgun in the Mulford Act—legislation that was also tainted with racial animus. See Mulford Act, 1967 Cal. Stat. 2459 (codified as amended at various sections of Cal. Penal Code); Cal. Penal Code § 25850 (2024). Passed during a period of significant racial unrest, the Mulford Act was a legislative response to the Black Panther Party’s activities, which included openly carrying firearms to protest police behavior in AfricanAmerican communities. See Thaddeus Morgan, The NRA Supported Gun Control When the Black Panthers Had the Weapons, HISTORY (last updated May 28, 2025), https://www.history.com/articles/black-panthers-guncontrol-nra-support-mulford-act. The catalyzing event occurred when “30 members of the Black Panthers protested on the steps of the California statehouse armed with .357 Magnums, 12-gauge shotguns and .45-caliber pistols and announced, ‘The time has come for Black people to arm themselves.’” Id. The California legislature disagreed and responded by passing the Mulford Act. Id. Yet even then, it remained legal in California to openly carry a handgun, so long as it was unloaded. See Mulford Act, 1967 Cal. Stat. 2459.

The Los Angeles County Superior Court has revealed 147,000 cases of felony convictions were not successfully reported to the California Department of Justice. The public notice of the backlog of errors was posted on February 24, 2026. Because they were not reported, they were not included in the National Instant background Check System (NICS) criminal history records. It is possible some convicted felons were able to obtain firearms through licensed dealers because of this oversight. From lacourt.org:
Of the approximately 464,000 impacted cases, the Court has identified approximately 380,000 instances with convictions where the case’s ADR was not successfully reported to the DOJ. Of those, roughly 147,000 involved cases with felony convictions, and roughly 233,000 were cases with misdemeanor convictions. Approximately 84,000 cases were dismissals in which ADRs were not successfully reported to the DOJ. Of those, roughly 61,000 involved felony dismissals, and roughly 23,000 involved misdemeanor dismissals.
The convictions are being transmitted to the DOJ at the present time. Most of the records occurred from the 1980's to 2006. Some of the records are as late as 2023.
About 18% of the records are of cases being dismissed. These could have consequences for things such as criminal history checks. Such checks often include arrests. Without the record of a dismissal of charges, it would become more difficult for an individual to show he was not convicted of a crime.
This correspondent has not found any indication if the California Department of Justice will be doing checks to see if any firearms were transferred to people with felony convictions.
Analysis: Los Angeles County Superior Court handles court cases for a bit less than 10 million people. These cases are mostly from a period of over 20 years, more than 20 years ago. The average number of felony convictions in the United States over that period was about 500 per 100,000 adults per year. The average is probably higher in California, but assuming the national average, we would expect about 50,000 felony convictions per year, or about 1.15 million convictions over the 23 year period. Given these back of the envelope estimates, roughly 1 in 8 felony convictions in the period, in Los Angeles County were not input properly. This does not engender faith in the criminal justice system. Bad record keeping is what one expects in third world countries. This shows, in spite of platitudes about how important it is to keep guns away from those who should not have them, the actual performance of doing so was not a very high priority.
This correspondent does not believe it should be the highest priority, because such laws are of marginal use against violent criminals. They are primarily used to convince those who desire to follow the law they should not acquire firearms. Such an attempt does not work well. In Australia, when extreme gun control measures were put into effect, the population followed the arcane and difficult rules, but increased the number of firearms owned, per capita, anyway. People will go to considerable trouble to obtain legal firearms when they have the desire to have them. Australian bureaucracy followed the rules. The number of firearms owned increased. Those who hate an armed population were outraged. Now they are proposing even more restrictions. Rule-following is not what those who want the people disarmed desire. They want the people disarmed.
It is good to see proper record keeping. Bad record keeping undermines faith in government. Given the allegations of corrupt politics in California, and especially in Los Angeles, this correspondent has to wonder if any of the "mistakes" were "helped" by a "helpful" clerical staff. This correspondent has not seen any evidence of such "help". The more people see the state as corrupt or even bumbling, the more they see the value of an armed population.

The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said the man attempted to force his way inside a residence in the 2900 block of Hunt Drive around 9:15 p.m. and threatened to kill one of the people inside. The homeowner called 911 after repeatedly asking that person to leave.
According to the sheriff's office, the homeowner shot the suspect after he broke a window to gain entry into the home. Deputies responded to the scene, and the man was taken to a nearby hospital and then booked into the Sacramento County Main Jail on Friday morning.

I’m sure most everyone is familiar now with the seemingly sudden change in the Food Pyramid. The Food Pyramid has essentially been flipped on its head.

I went this morning for a AAA scan (Abdominal Aorta Aneurism). It is a sonogram to tell if my abdominal aorta is about to spring a leak. When they scheduled it a week ago, I old then it was a waste of time and money. I'm okay. The doc insisted, because he doesn't believe me when I tell him something. Evidently, this test is VERY fucking important.
So, I went this morning and got the scan done. I was right. It was a waste of time and money. Scan showed absolutely no problems. It was a wase of my time and your tax dollars.

Barrier blind ammo is designed to pass through common obstacles like car doors, windows, drywall, plywood, or heavy clothing without significant change to its terminal performance.
