WA:Bellingham Pays $15,000 for Police Pointing Gun at Open Carrier



People carrying firearms openly have racked up a significant number of settlements for police overstepping their bounds.  In this latest case, the city of Bellingham, Washington has agreed to pay $15,000.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. (AP) - Lawyers say Bellingham has agreed to pay $15,000 to a man who was threatened by a police officer for wearing a holstered gun in a city park.
The police officer pointed his gun at the citizen who was not breaking any law.   Second Amendment activists who exercise their rights are winning these cases by being scrupulously law abiding, polite, and recording their interactions.

 Several settlements have been reached in Michigan.

    To raise money for wounded veterans' charities in both the United Kingdom and United States,

    Hot Shots Calendar is putting together it's seventh annual print, available now for pre-order, featuring the industry's finest military equipment and the UK's top glamor models.

    Never mind the amount of money they should be able to raise, the calendars alone will probably provide at least some benefit to the veterans, but here's some behind the scenes footage as well!
