Shameless Plug: When Aliens Attack!

The danger won’t come from Bug-Eyed Monsters or Little Green Men, ravings from the loopy peacenik crowd notwithstanding. The real danger traces directly back to those who decry self defense—for sovereign nations as well as sovereign individuals. But in the Orwellian world of the internationalists, fear of flying saucers merits treaties. Fear of global government bent on a monopoly of power is gibbering paranoia from conspiracy kooks.

"When Aliens Attack!" is my Rights Watch column for the April 2006 issue of GUNS Magazine, on sale now at out-of-this-world newsstands throughout the known Universe.

Mar. 1956 GUNS Now Online

A .55 caliber tank rifle--for $74.95? F.O.B. Los Angeles???

No, we're not in an alternate universe, simply a different time--and one that some of us were alive in. That just goes to show you how much we have lost--and how much that we now deem unbelievable was once commonplace and unquestioned.

Did you know there was also a Buffalo Bill Comstock, and that William F. Cody, who used the same "cognomen," beat him in a hunting demonstration to seal his claim to the name?

You know how politicians tell us guns and bars don't mix? Take a tour of the Military Inn in Dearborn, MI, with its collection of over 10,000 firearms, and see the Governor admiring a Colt believed to be the handgun used to kill Jesse James. (Finger off that trigger, Governor--and you, too, "Annie Oakley.")

Meet a 76-year-old who splits cards at 100 yards, and make the acquaintance of "America's Prettiest Shotgunner." Then admire the craftsmanship of Holland & Holland, "The Finest Gun Makers On Earth."



These features and more are included in the Mar. 1956 issue of GUNS Magazine, now online for free download.

Enjoy.

Victory in Glendale

In "Treason in Glendale," I passed along information about a proposed ordinance to ban guns and ammunition on city property in Glendale, CA. It turns out my suspicion that this was aimed at killing the Glendale Gun Show was correct, as a news account that Nicki Fellenzer reported on proved.

I got this follow-up from activist Steve Dergarabetian :

We sent hundreds of emails throughout the day urging the council members to vote against it. We went to the City Council meeting. The subject of the ordinance came up around 7:30 PM. The city attorney advised the mayor that he recieved an email from Chuck Michel, the NRA's attorney, of a lawsuit if this ordinance passed. The mayor wanted to postpone the vote, but Councilman Yousefian insisting on voting & killing the deal once and for all. At that point, the other 3 voiced their support for the 2nd Amendment and how they gave an oath to the Constitution when they were elected.

So basically, it went down 4 to 1 and we won. The motion was withdrawn forever (until next time at least).

By the way, there is a show at Glendale this coming Saturday & Sunday.

You can access individual webpages for the council, including their email addresses, by clicking here. A note of appreciation to the council members for their correct vote--and particularly to Mr. Yousefian for taking point on this-- would not be out of order. Mayor Manoukian might also benefit from some insights from freedom-minded people...

How Come...?

SAF says they're suing New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin along with NRA...

...But NRA doesn't share credit with SAF in their announcement?

I'd say this might be an oversight (if I was in the bridge market), except this isn't the first time this has happened...
