Download or read book Running Guns written by Lora Lumpe and published by Zed Books. This book was released on 2000-07 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is about the guns that fuel the huge toll of deaths in the world's most bloody conflicts at the turn of the century. Whether it is Africa, Sri Lanka or even Chechnya and Afghanistan, it is not heavy weaponry or hi-tech devices that kill the most people, but the flood of cheap, easy to get, small arms that has swept over so many countries in the 80s and 90s. Crime rates involving guns within countries have also soared, as South Africa and Kenya, for example, have experienced. Yet a lot of this cross-border arms trade is illegal. So much so that several governments, including the United States, Canada and Mexico, are now pressing for rapid negotiation of a new global treaty on illegal trafficking in small arms.

Book excerpt: The buyers find us. Establish their bona fides. Then, and only then, we run. Burdon Lane is a businessman living out the American Dream in a shiny suburb of Washington, D.C. His business card lists him as Executive VP of UniArms, Inc., a legitimate arms dealer that's a front for a gunrunning empire. His girlfriend thinks he's a salesman. His best friend thinks he's a role model. His boss thinks he's a good soldier. This weekend's run should be business as usual -- guns for money, money for guns -- moving the product north on the Iron Highway from Dirty City to Manhattan. But this weekend is going to teach Burdon something he doesn't yet know about who he is . . . and isn't. When the meet in Manhattan turns into a five-alarm fire and an all-out war on the tenth floor of a New York hotel, there is only one way out: an uneasy alliance with a hard case named Jinx and the street gang known as the U Street Crew. And once the heat is on, with a cadre of killers and every police officer and Federal agent on the eastern seaboard on their tail, Burdon gets the chilling sensation that, one way or another, this so-called milk run may be his last. This is the story of the last run, the run where no one -- criminal, cop, or civilian -- is who or what they seem. Douglas E. Winter's debut novel blasts into the dark heart of America's culture of guns and violence with breathtaking velocity. Run is a streamlined tour de force of full-throttle action and high-tech weaponry, a brilliantly controlled ride through America's most brutal terrain, with a surprising moral message -- fantastically harrowing, relentlessly cinematic, impossible to look away from.

Download or read book The Howth Gun Running and the Kilcoole Gun Running written by F. X. Martin and published by Merrion Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique compendium of historical documents dating from 1914 - and collected by F.X. Martin in 1964 - is considered the definitive history of the Howth & Kilcoole Gun-Running. Written by the chief protagonists, these are remarkable first-hand accounts and provide a running commentary on the momentous events of July / August 1914, when German weapons were illegally landed by sea in Ireland. The rifles procured for the Irish Volunteers transformed perceptions of the organization and convinced many ordinary Nationalists that London would be obliged to deliver on the long promised implementation of Home Rule. The complex seaborne operation was replete with acts of courage and endeavor. The fascinating letters, diary entries, eyewitness accounts, and reports in this remarkable volume provide an unrivalled perspective of the event as it unfolded, ultimately constituting a genuinely extraordinary record of one of the most significant events in modern Irish history. This comprehensive collection is an essential record of the time. It is also notable for charting the early militant activism of Eamon de Valera, Liam Mellows, Sean McDiarmada, and many others who left their mark on the evolution of modern Ireland. Originally published by Browne and Nolan (1964) and now available from Merrion, the book includes, along with the original foreword by Eamon de Valera, a new foreword by Eamon O Cuiv, and a new introduction by Ruan O'Donnell and Micheal O hAodha.

This course provides the foundation of Coach Simpson's offensive philosophy. Coach believes in the monikers that "Less is More" and the "Rule of 3", which both were evident in the explanation of the offense. His explanations were clear and concise, and the presentations were easy to follow." - Todd Knipp"This is absolutely amazing. Coach Simpson does an excellent job of explaining his system. Whether your a young coach or an experienced coach this is must see. You can easily see why he is a successful coach. His detail an organization is on point and I cannot wait to learn more from Coach Simpson." - Mike Kloes"I've been following coach Simpson for a while now and it's very clear to me that even though I may not be a HC, we have similar philosophies. If you are a Wing T guy looking for ways to "Modernize" your offense, or a Spread guy looking for an effective and efficient run game this is the offense you should be looking at!" - Coach Sheffer"The course by Coach Simpson was quite helpful. As the new Head Coach of a small school - the Gun T system is going to help us be successful right away. Being a spread coach for the last 8-9 years, this system easily blends the best of both worlds of spread and wing-." -Mike Wilson"Coach Simpson's Gun-T Offense is dynamic and efficient. This course gets into the foundation of building blocks of the Gun-T offense and what you are trying to do offensively to be as successful as possible." - Austin Pink"Amazing detail on numerous variations of attaching RPO's to your Bucksweep. Keeps it simple yet extremely informative. Great Job Coach Simpson, you made me a believer! Highly recommend!" - Mike Turso"Coach Simpson does a awesome job explaining his system, and he does it a way that people like myself who are not familiar with RPO's can understand!" - Coach Coleman

Book excerpt: You may think you’re too old to run fast, but you’re not too old to run well. When the lead runner starts his final lap in a long-distance race, the starter fires his pistol for the second time. This signals the start of the gun lap—the last chance to leave it all out on the track. “Gun Lap” is for men who are running their last lap. Or maybe younger men who are looking ahead to their gun lap, but want to live the rest of their lives with purpose and strength. This is no small thing. In fact, it’s a big deal, because we only get one chance at this life. The author of the New Testament book of Hebrews agrees...wrote, “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us” (12:1 CSB). Perseverance. No word better describes the goal of this race…every lap…including the last one. “Gun Lap” will help you pay close attention to the strides you have left.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An eye-opening and riveting account of how guns make it into the black market and into the hands of criminals and drug lords.”--Adam Winkler From the author of El Narco and winner of the Maria Moors Cabot Prize, a searing investigation into the enormous black market for firearms, essential to cartels and gangs in the drug trade and contributing to the epidemic of mass shootings. The gun control debate is revived with every mass shooting. But far more people die from gun deaths on the street corners of inner city America and across the border as Mexico's powerful cartels battle to control the drug trade. Guns and drugs aren't often connected in our heated discussions of gun control-but they should be. In Ioan Grillo's groundbreaking new work of investigative journalism, he shows us this connection by following the market for guns in the Americas and how it has made the continent the most murderous on earth. Grillo travels to gun manufacturers, strolls the aisles of gun shows and gun shops, talks to federal agents who have infiltrated biker gangs, hangs out on Baltimore street corners, and visits the ATF gun tracing center in West Virginia. Along the way, he details the many ways that legal guns can cross over into the black market and into the hands of criminals, fueling violence here and south of the border. Simple legislative measures would help close these loopholes, but America's powerful gun lobby is uncompromising in its defense of the hallowed Second Amendment. Perhaps, however, if guns were seen not as symbols of freedom, but as key accessories in our epidemics of addiction, the conversation would shift. Blood Gun Money is that conversation shifter.
