This is a placeholder for now because I have not had ads on this blog for years. In case I ever start up again, this will be the policy in effect:
The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don't think we're getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you're stupid, too. I have had a few ads on this site in the past and may do so again if I think it's worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn't buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don't mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now--you're not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer.
About "The Only Ones"
The purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it's also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they're involved in gun-related incidents.
Comment House Rules
Keep them on topic. No spam. No threats against anyone except me. Do not feed trolls--I'll take out the trash. Try to keep it clean. I'm the final arbiter. If you don't like the rules, start your own damn blog.
Link Policy
WarOnGuns reciprocates links with liberty-oriented sites promoting the right to keep and bear arms for all peaceable individuals. If you have linked to me and don't see your site below, it's probably just because I haven't noticed it yet. Shoot me an email via the "Contact Form" (see above in this sidebar) if you want to fix that.
As a general rule I remove links for blogs that have been inactive for over one year.
Seems to me that Rep. Smith is guilty of projecting his lack of self control onto his constituents. He is telling us that because he can't control himself, we should be restrained in our rights? I suppose if he ever committed adultery, and I'm not claiming he did, he assumes that we all did too?
I live in Illinois. Being neither a cop nor a crook (except sometimes, when I visit Chicago), I don't often carry a gun anymore.
I used to, and will again. I found being armed made me a lot more conscious of the ways a situation could go south than I otherwise might have been, and therefore much less likely to jump into a scene and start making noise.
I would hope that a grown man such as Dr. Smith, who is SIXTY FIVE YEARS OLD and a college professor would have gotten past being bullied in the early 1960's and stopped wanting to kill the guys who picked on him. I guess not.

A blithering idiot, for sure.
hahahaha, that is awesome!
Only one thing to say to someone like that guy YAAFM, which stands for You Are A F.....G Moron ! And he is an elected official?
“It shows you that when you have a gun, how many times you don’t think,” Smith said.
it shows me that when you have a gun, how many times you wouldn't think. you and i are not alike, bro.
He's just playin' like they do it G.I. That is the street name for Gary, Indiana, aka mini-Detroit.

If he's that out of control, shouldn't he be in jail somewhere, instead of the State Legislature?
succinct!
I have to stop laughing sometime today
