2nd Amendment Carnival

Free Constitution is hosting "the second edition of the 2nd Amendment Blog Carnival!"

Unprincipled Statist...Uh...Principled Statesman Endorsed By Brady Campaign

Senator Michael DeWine of Ohio today became the first Senate candidate of the 2006 election season to get the endorsement of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, the nation's leading gun violence prevention organization.
Bradys win either way on this: If outraged gun owners ignore GOP Kool-Aid dispenser Hugh Hewitt and withhold support from DeWine, an equally bad potentially balance-tipping democrat will win a senate seat. If not, they've still got a GOA and NRA "F-rated" traitor in office.

AHSA Subversives: Forget Our Past and Trust Us

Robert Ricker wants people to take a close look at him and not be afraid.
Don't worry, Bob. We're not afraid. The overwhelming emotion is disgust.

They ask that you overlook their past associations and listen to their message.
Right. Forget all their past and current actions aimed at subverting the right to keep and bear arms and just trust them.

Care to back that turnip truck up so we can climb back on and fall off properly?

"For Mary's Sake"? Oh, For Pete's Sake!

For 12 years, I fought lawlessness as DCI Jane Tennison in the television series Prime Suspect. The crimes I solved on television were sometimes horrific, but I have since discovered that they can pale in comparison with the real-life horrors faced by millions of ordinary people when guns are easily available and fall into the wrong hands.
Newsflash, you clueless moonbat: You never "fought lawlessness." You never "solved" any "crimes."

That was all play acting.

Why someone who can't tell the difference between that and reality should have a voice in serious matters is beyond me.

We're the Only Ones Pointed Enough

A Warren police sergeant is facing charges that he pointed a gun on a colleague.
Let me prove the lie to the adage "There are no stupid questions":

If one of us pointed a gun at one of The Only Ones, what are the chances we'd now be "on paid administrative leave"?

We're the Only Ones Untrained Enough

The New South Wales Opposition is calling on the Government to extend a deadline for police gun training to prevent hundreds of detectives being removed from frontline duties.
On the bright side, that ought to ensure a steady supply of fresh Only Ones posts...

Josh Sugarmann Wets Self and Cries Over Non-Issue

So in case you wanted to know what the top model of gun traced to crime in America is... Or how many assault weapons are traced to crimes... Or what Southern state supplies the highest volume of crime guns used in urban areas... Or what types of guns kids are carrying... Forget about it.
Hey Josh, there's no law prohibiting sharing data on criminals.

You just want to be able to selectively sue and incrementally ban under the fraudulent "weapons of choice" subterfuge.

This Day in History: June 25
