Byrna Technologies announces the launch of their non lethal firearms to help prevent firearm casualties

Prodigy Press Wire

Byrna Technologies is announcing the launch of their non lethal firearms, which can be used as an alternative to the use of deadly force from the discharge of a traditional firearm. The Byrna is modeled after a traditional firearm and shoots a pepper projectile. In addition, Byrna Technologies has developed a non lethal shotgun shell, which can be used in any shotgun in combination with regular lethal shotgun shells. According to Bryan Ganz, CEO, and President of Byrna Technologies, this offers people who own shotguns the option to use non lethal rounds first and if there is still a threat to their safety they can discharge a standard shotgun shell. Ganz developed the Byrna in order to provide people with alternatives to using deadly force in the event they need to protect themselves and their families. He says most people will experience trigger hesitancy in the event they have to use a firearm because most gun owners do not actually want to have to shoot anyone. In addition to avoiding trigger hesitancy, Ganz aims to provide a solution to the growing gun violence epidemic in the United States. He says if more people use non lethal weapons like the Byrna it can begin to have a significant impact on the amount of gun related casualties in the country every year. Currently, the Byrna has been supplied to over 300 law enforcement agencies at the local, state, and federal level. Last year, Byrna Technologies accumulated over $50 million in sales, which shows more people are looking for alternatives to deadly force. When purchasing a Byrna, there are no background checks, licenses or required permits to carry one. The Byrna is legal in all 50 states, which makes it ideal for people traveling across state lines because they won’t have to worry about whether or not it is legal to carry the Byrna. However, there are some cities such as San Francisco and New York City where carrying a non lethal weapon like a Byrna is not permitted.. Ganz says Byrna Technologies has received pushback from people on both the left and right of the political aisles in the United States. He says this comes from the right in the form of people believing that the company wants to promote gun control and infringe on people’s Second Amendment rights. As a gun owner, Ganz says this couldn’t be further from the truth as he is just trying to provide one of the solutions to ending the gun violence epidemic in the country. On the left of the political aisle, Ganz says people accuse Byrna Technologies of promoting gun culture and further contributing to gun violence. Ganz only wants to provide people with an alternative to using deadly force and give people who aren’t comfortable carrying a firearm a means to effectively defend themselves. “Not everyone wants to carry a gun, and in most situations in which lethal force was used, it could have been avoided. With the Byrna, people can feel safe and have a viable and alternative means to using a firearm in the event they have to defend themselves.” says Ganz. “We need to have common sense solutions to ending the wave of gun violence sweeping the country, and with the Byrna we’re not trying to infringe on anyone’s Second Amendment rights or invoke policy towards gun legislation. We are simply providing a way for people to avoid the use of lethal force.” Media Contact Name: Bryan Scott Ganz Email: bryan@byrna.com Release ID: 709369

DeSoto Invested $300K in Gunshot Detection Tech: Is it Yielding Results?

MarketJar

When a 14-year-old boy was shot in broad daylight outside a DeSoto, Texas apartment complex, first responders were able to get to the scene, render first aid and get the victim in an ambulance and to the hospital immediately thanks to the city’s new gunshot detection technology. According to DeSoto's Assistant Police Chief, Ryan Jesionek, the quick response from police is a textbook example of how ShotSpotter’s technology is helping in their fight against firearm violence. The system, which has been operational since April 20, 2023, covers a two square mile zone in the city's northeast, strategically selected through five years of call analysis to target high-risk areas. ShotSpotter's mechanism is straightforward: microphones detect loud sounds and pinpoint their source within an 82-foot radius. Upon gunfire confirmation, officers are dispatched within a minute, enhancing response precision. Triggered by an increase in 2020 gun-related incidents, DeSoto adopted ShotSpotter via a $300,000 contract funded by the American Rescue Plan Act. President Joe Biden's initiative aims to enhance community safety post-pandemic. SoundThinking (NASDAQ:SSTI), ShotSpotter's parent company, acknowledged federal endorsement of tech solutions against violence. Tom Chittum highlighted the transformative role of such tools in revolutionizing gun crime combat. The DeSoto Police Department is one of 150 departments across the country utilizing ShotSpotter’s gunshot detection technology. However, a Johns Hopkins study revealed the company’s inability to solely reduce firearm violence, noting that broader strategies, including policy reforms, are key. Another company utilizing gunshot detection technology in parallel with its other crime prevention technology is Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP). Knightscope Unveils Automated Gunshot Detection Technology Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) is a pioneering public safety technology company focused on developing fully autonomous security robots, blue light emergency communication systems, and automated gunshot detection solutions. The company's overarching mission is to enhance safety and make the United States the safest country in the world. On July 14, 2023 Knightscope announced the addition of real-time, automated gunshot detection technology to its growing portfolio of autonomous security offerings. This strategic move comes in response to mounting requests from various sectors, including schools, corporations, airports, hotels, and municipalities, seeking advanced solutions for active threat management and emergency response. The integration of gunshot detection systems aims to expedite police and security responses, effectively addressing potential threats to public safety. According to the Company, the adoption of gunshot detection systems is driven by several significant reasons, such as mitigating active-shooter incidents, reducing false alarms and complementing other security solutions by enhancing protection across various environments. The Smart Policing Initiative, a collaboration between the Bureau of Justice Assistance and 40 local police agencies, has highlighted the potential of such systems. They can aid immediate response and investigation of gunfire incidents while identifying high-risk areas for targeted interventions, thus enhancing public safety. Knightscope 's automated gunshot detection technology will be integrated into new K1 Blue Light Towers or can also serve as an upgrade to the 7,000 devices already deployed nationwide. This technology can function as a standalone device or in conjunction with the K5 Outdoor and K3 Indoor Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs). The system's flexibility is augmented through optional solar power or light pole kits for installation. Distinguished by its automated precision localization, the system operates both indoors and outdoors, accurately identifying gunshot locations in both horizontal and vertical planes. Notifications are transmitted within two seconds, contingent on reliable cellular service, using a multi-sensor system to minimize false alarms. Knightscope 's approach focuses on localized, real-time coverage for heightened effectiveness, contrasting with city-wide approaches. Sales are set to commence in Q4 2023. Heightened concerns about gunshot-related incidents, especially within school premises, are driving changes in security protocols, fostering demand for gunshot detection systems. Smart Cities initiatives are incorporating such technology into their safety frameworks. Analysts project the North American market for gunshot detection to reach a value of $646 million by 2031, with a CAGR of 9.1% from 2022 to 2031. For more information on Knightscope, Inc.

Hunter Biden Plea Deal Rejected by Federal Judge

National Legal & Policy Center

Federal Judge Maryellen Noreika in Delaware rejected a sweetheart plea deal whereby Hunter Biden agreed to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax violations and enter a pretrial diversion program for a felony gun charge. The gun charge would be dropped if he stayed off drugs and alcohol and complied with other conditions for two years. The prosecutors also recommended that there would be no jail time for the two tax charges. The National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), an ethics watchdog group, had previously blasted the lenient plea agreement between the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, David Weiss, and Hunter Biden. NLPC called upon Judge Noreika to reject the deal. The plea deal fell apart when the prosecutor told the court that the investigation is still ongoing, but Hunter and his attorneys thought the plea deal would give him immunity for any other crimes he may have committed. The frustrated judge gave the two sides some time to settle their differences during a break in the hearing but further problems arose regarding the gun charge. If Hunter did not abide by the terms of his pretrial diversion program, the judge was concerned that she would be the one to decide that the prosecution of the gun charge should proceed. She made it clear that the judiciary does not have that prosecutorial power under our Constitution’s separation of powers. She gave the parties thirty days to file additional briefs on a revised plea deal. Notably, Judge Noreika grilled Hunter during the hearing on the source of his foreign income. Hunter admitted receiving taxable income from Burisma oil company in Ukraine, where he was on the Board, and from a Chinese energy company. Yet despite the five-year investigation, no charges were brought against Hunter under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) for engaging in political activities on behalf of Burisma and Chinese interests, despite overwhelming evidence that NLPC had presented to the Justice Department in 2020. “It’s outrageous that after a five-year investigation of Hunter Biden, and the recent IRS whistleblowers’ sworn testimony of a Justice Department coverup and obstruction, the best that the prosecutor can come up with is a couple of misdemeanor charges and recommend probation as a slap on the wrist,” said Paul Kamenar, counsel for NLPC. “Thankfully, Judge Noreika rejected the plea deal as we urged, but it remains to be seen if a new deal is agreed to,” Kamenar added. "The two-level system of justice whereby the Biden family gets a pass is rightfully perceived by the public as the politicization of the justice system,” said Peter Flaherty, Chairman of NLPC. “If the Justice Department continues to cover up for the Biden family, Congress must vigorously pursue its investigation, which appears to be leading to impeachment proceedings.” ### Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action.

FORMER FEDERAL PROSECUTOR CLARIFIES HUNTER BIDEN PLEA AGREEMENT IN LATEST ARTICLE.

Prodigy Press Wire

In a recently released blog post, seasoned federal criminal defense lawyer and former federal prosecutor John M. Helms dives deep into the recent plea agreement involving Robert Hunter Biden. The article aims to dispel misconceptions surrounding the case and educate readers on the criminal justice system's intricacies. The blog post titled " Understanding the Tax and Firearm Charges Filed Against Hunter Biden " provides an unbiased analysis of the U.S. Attorney's Office plea agreement announcement from the District of Delaware. Helms uses his expertise in the legal field, having tried federal tax and gun cases both as a prosecutor and a defense lawyer, to delve into the charges against Hunter Biden. The author illuminates the criminal justice system workings, dispelling the notion of bias or corruption in the case. In the article, Helms highlights the significant role played by the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, David Weiss, a Republican appointee with years of federal criminal prosecution experience. The piece explores the public's misconceptions surrounding this case and offers readers a clear understanding of the charges involved and the reasoning behind the proposed plea agreement. The article, with in-depth examination and explanation of the charges and applicable laws, provides a comprehensive look into the actual workings of the criminal justice system, dispelling any notion of "sweetheart" or corrupt deals. "The fact that Mr. Weiss is a Trump appointee means that he is a Republican. He would not have been appointed if he was not," Helms said. "Some people have apparently tried to convince themselves that, because a person whose last name is Biden may not do jail time, then President Biden must have forced this result. Again, this is nonsense," he added. To read the full story, visit.

2022 Saw The Most School Shootings In America Since Columbine – This Company’s Solution Aims To Help Fight This Rising Trend

Siyata Mobile Inc.

Sadly, recent years have shown us that the places that should be safest, aren’t. Schools across the country have seen a rise in horrific mass shootings, violence between students and violence aimed at teachers. Each day, 12 children die from gun violence in America, with another 32 shot and injured. In fact, gun violence is the leading cause of death among American children and teens, and 2022 saw the most school shootings since the Columbine tragedy. This has caused a culture of fear to become pervasive nationwide. To address these concerns and make schoolchildren safer, Siyata Mobile (NASDAQ: SYTA) has teamed up with CrisisGo to create a solution that provides superior communication and enables a higher level of safety and security. Siyata has integrated CrisisGo’s advanced safety platform with Siyata’s latest Push-to-Talk (“PTT”) handset, the SD7. Siyata Mobile develops and markets communication solutions for everyone from first responders to government agencies. Its handsets are designed to be rugged and highly reliable, making them ideal for situations that are less than ideal. For school safety, one of the most critical features of the Siyata SD7 PTT handset is the SOS panic button, which provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for instant communication. CrisisGo, whose platform is integrated with the SD7, is a leading safety platform & emergency solution trusted by over 16,000 schools. The SD7 and CrisisGo integration provides five key features that keep kids safe: Send Alerts: Three clicks of the SD7’s SOS button will send a “staff alert” while seven clicks sends a “lockdown alert”. Users also have the ability to record up to twenty seconds of a voice message to be packaged with their alert. Receive Alerts: When an alert goes out, other users will automatically be made aware of whatever emergency is happening. The alert – and any associated voice message – is played automatically. This means that critical information is quickly disseminated to everyone. Check In: When a Check In is sent to a handset, the SD7 plays a notification tone and vibrates for 10 seconds, displaying the Check In question and one of the options on the OLED screen. Users can turn the SD7’s knob to switch to show other options for check-in questions and press down on the knob to select the option shown on the screen for submission. Receive Messages: When a text or audio message is sent to a handset, the SD7 handset plays a notification tone, vibrates for 10 seconds, and displays the message content or notification on the screen. Users can press down on the knob to play audio, stop playing, or remove the audio message from the SD7. Safety iControl Access: Users can access Safety iControl, the smart command center for school administrators to initiate, manage and monitor safety activities. This feature allows users to send alerts, check-ins and text messages, escalate and share with external first responders or communities, manage school maps and resources and view real-time situations on GIS. The features of the SD7 handset make it a critical tool in making schools safer. It represents a huge step forward compared to the legacy devices currently on the market, making ease of use a top priority. Hopefully, these handsets will be an unnecessary precaution, but preparing for the worst means that if it comes, the best outcomes can be achieved.

VR Confirms Kimberlite Breccia 700 Metres from Hole 001 at Northway, Prepares Samples for Shipping, and Scopes Magnetic Surveys on Surrounding Properties

VR Resources Ltd.

Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - July 06, 2023 - VR Resources Ltd. (TSX.V:VRR ) ( FSE:5VR ) ( OTC:VRRCF ), the " Company ", or “ VR ”, has successfully intersected kimberlite breccia in drill hole NW23-003 collared into the heart of the 1.2 km magnetic anomaly on its Northway property in northern Ontario. Drill hole NW23-003 was completed to 627 m. Some 350 m of kimberlite breccia was intersected below a sandstone cover starting at approximately 240 m depth, the same depth as in the previous two drill holes. The hole ended in xenolith-rich kimberlite breccia (XPK), open to depth; Kimberlite breccia from drill holes 1, 2 and 3 spans approximately 700 metres laterally across the breccia pipe complex, and approximately 320 metres vertically below the sandstone cover; Continuous sampling of all three drill holes completed to date provides approximately 500 m of kimberlite drill core for approximately 1.3 metric tonnes of material for compositional studies and microdiamond evaluation by caustic fusion, to be completed at the SRC laboratory in Saskatoon. VR plans to have all of the samples prepared and shipped in the second week of July. Drill core photos. A myriad of kimberlite textures were intersected in drill hole 003, from crystalline coherent kimberlite (CK) to xenolith-rich pyroclastic kimberlite breccia (XPK) to magma-clast – rich pyroclastic kimberlite breccia (MPK) to kimberlite breccia with abundant fragments of entrained country rock (CKPK), as illustrated in drill core photos in Figure 1, 2, 3 and 4. Illustrations. Two figures provide the framework for the drill holes completed to date, on plan and section: The magnetic anomaly associated with the kimberlite diatreme breccia intersected at Northway is from 900 - 1,200 metres across, as shown on the plan map in Figure 5. The boundary conditions for the overall anomaly are sub-vertical based on a new 3D inversion model of magnetic amplitude data; importantly, the boundaries are consistent with those in the original RTP_HD (horizontal derivative) map products from the high resolution drone survey completed last year, as shown on the plan map and cross section in Figure 6. Drill hole NW23-003 is collared at the same location as hole 002, but inclined steeply to the north at -65 o into the heart of the magnetic anomaly, that is, into the largest area of high amplitude magnetism directly above the vertical roots of the complex as viewed in 3D inversion profiles (map and profile in Figure 6 ). A caldera facies at the top of the breccia pipe is preserved in hole 001. Hypabyssal, coherent kimberlite phases (CK) are evident within xenolith-rich pyroclastic kimberlite (XPK) breccia phases in all three holes. The first two drill holes at Northway intersected various kimberlite breccia phases below a cover of Paleozoic limestone and sandstone, as shown in the schematic cross section in Figure 5. Both holes were terminated because of caving in the sandstone, but the drill-stem integrity was maintained in hole 003 for a more complete intersection into the kimberlite breccia complex below. From VR’s CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, “ Having now hit kimberlite breccia in 3 drill holes spanning some 700m across the magnetic anomaly at Northway, the sheer scale and energy of this kimberlitic event and breccia pipe complex is both obvious and exceptional. There is kimberlite breccia to the bottom of hole 003, which is some 700 m laterally from the kimberlite crater facies seen at the top of hole 001, and we have yet to even see the northwestern part of the complex with the three holes completed to date. Similarly, we see no constraints for the depth extent of the breccia based on observations in drill core, including xenolith-rich XPK breccia at the bottom of hole 003, and based on the continuity in the 1,000 metres of vertical extent in our 3D magnetic inversion block model. With that realization towards the sheer scale of the KPK breccia rocks at Northway, and the potential for a new Devonian-aged kimberlite field in the northern Superior craton, we are now scoping the acquisition of detailed magnetic data on the twenty-odd magnetic anomalies that we have staked around Northway, and proximal to the active Ontario Northern railroad. We now have over a metric ton of drill core in three holes spanning some 700 metres laterally and 320 metres vertically within the breccia pipe complex at Northway. This amount of core will optimize a first-pass evaluation of the micro-diamond potential by caustic fusion, and provide for a robust compositional characterization of the breccia. In order to appreciate the upside potential of Northway itself, and of the expanded strategy related to the field of similar targets staked by VR following the discovery in hole 001, I would again encourage our shareholders to remind themselves of the drill core photos and geological context for this discovery as outlined in the previous news releases dated February 22 and May 18, 2023, respectively, and as summarized on the Northway project page on the Company’s new website at www.vrr.ca. Technical Information Summary technical and geological information for the Company’s various exploration properties is available at the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca. Technical information for this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101. Justin Daley, P.Geo., VP Exploration and a non-independent Qualified Person oversees and/or participates in all aspects of the Company’s mineral exploration projects, and the content of this news release has been reviewed on behalf of the Company by the CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, P.Geo., a non-independent Qualified Person. About the Northway Property and Project The Northway property is located in northern Ontario. It is approximately 12 km northeast of the Company’s REE critical metal discovery at its Hecla-Kilmer project. The nearest town is Moosonee located on tidewater at James Bay some 125 kilometres to the northeast. Kapuskasing is located about the same distance to the southwest, on the Trans-Canada Highway (Provincial HWY 11). Exploration is based out of a camp at the hydroelectric facility at Otter Rapids located about 50 km to the southeast of Northway. Provincial Highway 634 provides road access to Otter Rapids from Smooth Rock Falls, located at the junction of HWY 634 with the Trans-Canada Highway. The property itself is just 15 km west of the Ontario Northern railway (ONR) which provides service to the communities on James Bay. The Northway property consists of 64 contiguous claims in a single, 4 x 7 km block 1,315 ha in size. It was expanded to a district-scale project by staking directly 284 new claims in 19 additional properties covering magnetic anomalies near Northway and proximal to the ONR line, within an area of 50 x 70 km overall. The properties are owned 100% by VR. There are no underlying payments or interests on the property and no royalty interests because the property was staked by VR directly. Northway is located on provincial crown land in northern Ontario, with mineral rights administered by the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development, Mines, Natural Resources and Forestry (“MNDM”). There are no annual payments, but the MNDM requires certain annual exploration expenditures and reporting. The property falls within the traditional territories of the Moose Cree and Taykwa Tagamou First Nations. Corporate Update Effective July 6, 2023 (the “ Effective Date ”) the board of directors of the Company (the “ Board ”) have adopted a restricted share units (“RSUs” ) and deferred share units (“ DSUs ") long term incentive plan (the “ LTIP "). The purposes of the LTIP will be to: (i) provide the Company with a mechanism to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified directors, officers, employees and consultants; (ii) align the interests of eligible participants of the LTIP with that of other shareholders of the Company generally; and (iii) enable and encourage participants to participate in the long-term growth of the Company through the acquisition of RSUs and DSUs as long-term investments. While the LTIP has been adopted by the Board, it remains subject to ratification by shareholders of the Company and final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “ Exchange” ). In accordance with the policies of the Exchange, the Company is required to obtain disinterested shareholder approval for the implementation of the LTIP. These approvals will be sought at the upcoming meeting of shareholders of the Company to be held on August 31, 2023 (the “ Meeting ”). The maximum number of RSUs/DSUs issuable under the LTIP Plan may not exceed 11,396,636 common shares representing 10% of the number of issued and outstanding common shares of the Company as at the Effective Date, Further details regarding the LTIP will be included in the management information circular of the Company which will be sent to shareholders and filed on SEDAR in connection with the Meeting About VR Resources VR is an established junior exploration company based in Vancouver (TSX.V: VRR; Frankfurt: 5VR; OTCQB: VRRCF).
