Shots Aren't Preceded By "Dear"

NRA wants us to send letters to UN officials protesting their plans for global gun control, and have prepared cut and paste letters for that purpose.

It's hardly the "shot heard 'round the world" Wayne is painting it to be, but OK, I'll send those tyrants a warning letter.

Still, I'll be damned if I call either of them "Dear" or "Honorable."

It's not about controlling the UN. It's about controlling treasonous US representatives.

Yes, I'm all for getting the US out of the UN. And I'm also for getting the "gun lobby" out.

So Much For "Project Exile"

"We wanted the NRA to see what's happening on the streets of Philadelphia," he said.

So much for promises.

We're the Only Ones Electrifying Enough

An East Windsor police officer is on the hot seat after shooting someone in the face with a taser. And the victim he tasered is someone who patrols the streets with the officer!...

A prong from the taser went right into the face of the East Windsor officer jolting him with tens of thousands of volts of electricity. It happened Monday night after roll call, when two officers were discussing their tasers and one accidentally discharged his weapon not believing there was a cartridge inside.

Shocking, on the face of it...

A Lecture From Cass

Cass said...

I don't know exactly what your about here. But this is serious. the man will die. It Sounds to me like your blameing rap music. the clear enemy is guns themselves.

Yes, there are people this ignorant.

And no, Cass, I blame the violent thugs who are disproportionately attracted to the rap "culture," using that word less as a decription of a social manifestation and more as an articially created, incubated and sustained societal infection agent, targeted at a control group most succeptible to its destructive effects .

This Day in History: May 11

On this day in 1776, in a letter addressed to the president of Congress, American General George Washington recommends raising companies of German-Americans to use against the German mercenaries anticipated to fight for Britain. Washington hoped this would engender “a spirit of disaffection and desertion” among Britain’s paid soldiers.

"It Depends On What the Meaning of the Word 'Is' Is"

Wyoming is suing the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, saying the agency is relying on a technicality to refuse the right to bear arms to state residents who have misdemeanor convictions for domestic violence...

"Essentially, what the dispute involves is the meaning of the word 'expungement' and how it is applied to firearms disability under federal law," said Eric Epstein, division counsel for the ATF field office in Phoenix.

Hey Eric--what about the meaning of "shall not be infringed"?

Just remember--BATFU reports to the Bush administration.

Vote freedom first!

A Question for the "Pragmatists"

McCain told Imus that he would, if necessary, sacrifice ``quote First Amendment rights'' to achieve ``clean'' government. If on Jan. 20, 2009, he were to swear to defend the Constitution, would he be thinking that the oath refers only to ``the quote Constitution''? And what would that mean?

McCain v Hillary: You'll back him, won't you, and reserve special scorn for those of us who warn against him?

I'm just trying to determine your tolerance threshold for tyranny, and where your line in the sand is.
