About Me

My photo
I'm the author of four books: Warrior SOS, The Work of Death, Together Forever, and Leaders Wanted. I'm in the doc film Please Remove Your Shoes. I've blogged for The Washington Times, and I write for Guns.com. I've worked for the high-profile U.S.-led Roadmap to Mideast Peace in Israel and Palestine. I've also worked as a SWAT team leader, a Federal Air Marshal and a sole-source training instructor on a classified contract with a U.S. government customer. My master's degree is in Military Studies and terrorism. I'm a former noncommissioned and commissioned Army officer, with service in Iraq. I've been Scuba diving and skydiving; I have trained with members of the U.S. Olympic Ski Team, and I'm an FBI-trained crisis negotiator. My interests lie in helping others and in strengthening America through inspiring moral courage, government fiscal responsibility and accountability, and maintaining principles that have made--and will continue to make--the United States of America a blessed and prosperous country. I'm a father of six, a husband, and a police officer. I reside in Utah, and I'm a Mormon. See also https://jeffreydenning.wordpress.com.

Guns and Freedom


“Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself.  They are the peoples’ liberty’s teeth.” 
~ George Washington

"Let me make a short, opening, blanket comment. There are no good guns. There are no bad guns. Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a decent person is no threat to anybody – except bad people.”

~ Charlton Heston


South Africa has more murders with firearms than any other nation. They also have more assaults and more rapes than any other nations. (Source: http://www.nationmaster.com/facts/Crime and  http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_mur_wit_fir-crime-murders-with-firearms

Interestingly, they've attempted for years to ban guns. It's not working. When governments ban guns only criminals have guns.  http://www.nrapublications.org/index.php/9472/south-africas-deadly-disaster/
