"Machine Gun Sammy"

Anybody who can provoke such hysterical fearmongering from the Brady Bunch has gotta be doing something right...

ALITO

President Bush, stung by the rejection of his first choice, nominated conservative judge Samuel Alito on Monday to replace moderate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor in a bid to reshape the Supreme Court and mollify his political base.

From Gun Owners of America:

There are other conservative judges who are currently on the federal bench who also have a high regard for the U.S. Constitution. Judge Samuel Alito, Jr., in the Third Circuit, has argued that Congress has no right to regulate the private possession of machine guns.

Tell me more...

Police Riot in Wisconsin

So it's the official policy of the City of Madison -- at least according to its mayor -- to assault citizens just as a preventive measure.

And isn't the threat of that the very essence of "gun control" laws?

You're Quite Welcome

This sure beats some of the stuff that's been said about me...

More Treason From the Birthplace of Liberty

Restrict the flow of legal weapons, and the number of guns circulating illegally on city streets would decline. "We need to go after traffickers who have highly developed businesses... just like selling hotdogs," says Bryan Miller of Ceasefire New Jersey, which lobbies for gun safety.

For all the talk of enforcing existing gun laws, those statutes have not kept illegal guns out of the hands of criminals. So lawmakers need to enact the one-handgun-a-month proposal being championed by Rep. John Myers and Sen. LeAnna M. Washington, both Philadelphia Democrats. Limiting legal handgun purchases - not hunting rifles - to a dozen per year would preserve gun owners' rights, while seriously hampering gun traffickers.


Wait a minute--I thought Philadelphia wasn't supposed to have any more crime. I thought "enforcing existing gun laws" was the winning strategy.

Gee, maybe you can't get in bed with your enemies. Maybe compromise and appeasement don't work, and they'll always be coming back at your throat.

Note this is coming from Philadelphia, home of Independence Hall (now a UN World Heritage Site). Disarming the Constitutional militia ought to be prosecutable as an act of treason.

And note the divide-and-conquer tactic pitting hunters against handgun owners--your rifles are OK--we're just going after those other guys.

For now.

Bill Proposed to Ban 'Cop Killer' Handguns

[BugMeNot Login Edress / Password: yourmom1@mail.com / 69sk0e]


Massachusetts anti-defense fanatics continue to demonstrate that they prefer destroying gun owners with police state coercion over peaceful coexistence. Exactly how many cops have been killed with the unspecified handgun has not been disclosed, nor where we can get one of those 0.05 needleguns before they're banned.

But out of all the foolishness contained in this story, this line stood out the most:

He argued that the NRA does support gun laws that are effective in reducing crime..

Really? And what laws would those be?
