Nigeria embraces Arms Trade Treaty as murder, chaos and terror reign

None of this should be a surprise. [More]
This afternoon's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a predictable outcome and regression into violent madness. No wonder the "progressives" demand we make it universal.

Did You Know that All Handguns are Semi-Automatic?

No, I didn't know that. [More]

Thanks for the tip!

At first, I thought this must be a satire piece, but no, this child is not only that astonishingly ignorant, but also apparently that ethically challenged.

Falfurrias Checkpoint Illegal detention/search of American [Watch]
There's a common misconception that Texas is some sort of anything-goes gun owner's paradise, to the point where ignorant antis even feel comfortable publishing lies about it.

I'll keep on eye on this.  Maybe on or after Saturday we can link to some pictures.

He thinks Hickenlooper backing "gun control" is a "key advantage"? [More]

These establishment pundits certainly do live in bubbles.

Perhaps they would appreciate the opportunity to commune up close and personal in Nature's bliss with their furry forest friends... [More]

Denny's Grand Blam

Too bad she and her husband weren't killed instead, right, antis? [More]

“We have a police force for that,” the “action hero” concluded. “We should leave the novices at home." [More]
This morning's Gun Rights Examiner commentary notes the respect level of privileged Elysium inhabitants for Earth-bound rabble is about what you'd expect...

Death Panel

Don't worry, if ever a maniac decides "gun free school zones" in Arkansas are just the ticket for success and media immortality, Jack Acre & Co. will save everybody! Right Jack? [More]

Nice to see AG Dustin McDaniel and his assistant weighing in on who isn't trustworthy and in need of imposed controls.  I understand he's got a couple of achers himself...

Call for Action

What kind of action have those crying proven capable of doing? [More]

Might someone with a different set of qualifications, skills and mindset have a superior idea?

Jail to the Chief?

Anybody think McCain and Graham are really all that perplexed about why answers aren't forthcoming, as opposed to compromised themselves? [More]


Police One Survey

While I've been critical of some of the comments on this website in the past, this survey provides plenty of helpful arguments to use against the antis. [More]

Sign, Sign, Everywhere a Sign

"There are many signs visible throughout all of our facilities stating that the carrying of a handgun on the premises is prohibited by state law," said George Kovacik, Methodist public relations manager. [More]
Well then, gee, George, I'm as baffled as you about how this could happen.

Incidentally, the title lyric?  I've always hated that damned collectivist song.

Behold, a god who Bleeds

Resistance is futile!

Oh you think that, do you?

Salish, is there an epiphany you'd like to share?

And Now, the Rest of the Story...

That's funny...there's nothing in this "Authorized Journalist" report about Bloomberg's sneaky tactics...

But Phil Trexler does tell readers "private sales ... take place routinely ... on the Internet." I'm sure what he meant to say is that people can agree to hook up through the Internet and then do all kinds of things once they meet in person.  What he's really trying to say is the government needs to ban private sales and create a record of all gun purchases, but he's too skilled a sympathizer to admit that.

And he quotes a helpless victim (who better to take advice from?) and lets the statement  “Background checks could have changed that” go unchallenged, despite the fact that the mad dog shooter stole the gun from his uncle.

I guess when you're a "real journalist" on salary (as opposed to #justablogger), you're above such petty details.

Funny -- we also learn we can have guns on the sidewalk at the corner of the park, but if we step over an imaginary line we suddenly become criminals.  Must be something in the grass.
