We're the Only Ones Behind the Orange Curtain Enough

Up to 50 Sheriff's Department layoffs coming...[More]
As Head "Only One" Sandra Hutchens does everything in her power to ensure those inclined to obey the law remain defenseless...

Here's hoping more than a few people weigh their chances of being caught vs. their need to protect themselves when clearly OCSD is nowhere to be found--and then just ignore the boneheaded sow.

We're the Only Ones on Probation Enough

Chicago cop who beat bartender gets probation

'I have a fear of the police,' beating victim now says [More]
Figures:
[A]Cook County judge let the suspended cop walk out of court Tuesday with...no time behind bars for his attack on her.
I do disagree with the victim about one thing:
She says it's not quite rational to fear the police...
Sorry, but under the circumstances, as long as the "Only Ones" have no reason to fear us, either "legal" or otherwise, that's a perfectly rational reaction to have.

Here's one other outrage, from Circuit Judge John Fleming:
"If I believed sending Anthony Abbate to prison would stop people from getting drunk and hitting other people, I'd sentence him to the maximum...But I don't believe that is the case."
It's not a question of stopping "people". It's a question of stopping Anthony Abbatte.

Of course Fleming knows that. He's just shown us where his loyalties lie.

Forget it Jake. It's Chi-Town.

Free Survival E-Books

I'd meant to post on this earlier but got wrapped around the axle with priorities. Anyway, better late than never. M.D. Creekmore of The Survivalist Blog writes:
David,

Download my Free ebook collection. Feel free to link to and offer the books to your readers, I am sure they would appreciate the gesture, showering you with praise followed by hugs and sloppy kisses.
The hugs and kisses I can do without. The books, you should not, at least not without first seeing what they are and determining if they offer information that you think you can apply to your benefit.

From what I see, there's not only something for everybody, there's a heck of a lot of good knowledge to choose from.

Check it out for yourself.

We're the Only Ones Storming Enough

Deputies stormed wrong house in anti-gang sweep [More]
Of course they did. Now shut up and sit down.

And I'm sure had one of the wrongly-invaded family members been killed, the "Only Ones" responsible would have been exonerated for following approved procedures.

As opposed to if the situation were reversed...

The D.C. Gun List

I just got an email asking this:
I understand that the Washington, DC " elitobots" have recently expanded the list of acceptable guns. Do you know where one may find access to this list?
Here's my response. As you can see, it's more of a guess than a statement of authority. If anyone can give a more precise answer, please educate us all:
It sounds like this is what you're asking about. In terms of a "list," it sounds like a bit of chasing around is needed:
"In addition to permitting guns in the District that are legal in California, the city will also allow residents to apply to register handguns that are permissible in Massachusetts and Maryland."
I'm sure there is some overlap in the various lists.

Here's where you would start for CA:
http://certguns.doj.ca.gov/

MD:
http://www.mdsp.org/services/handgun.asp

and MA:
http://www.mass.gov/Eeops/docs/chsb/firearms/Approved%20Firearms%20Roster%2004-2009.pdf

Note I have not had time to give any of these sites more than a cursory glance and am unlikely to dig much deeper. It could well be that DC has developed a comprehensive list that takes care of the work for you, and I'm just unaware of how to find it.

I doubt they have, but it could be. In any case, this is the best I'm likely to be able to do for you. My suggestion would be to call NRA if you need more info.

Blogspot Comment Email Query

For any of you who have Blogspot blogs:

I have things set up so that every time a comment is entered on WarOnGuns, I get an email containing it. I don't do moderation, so that's the way I keep up with who is saying what on this site.

I've noticed over the past few days the comments are appearing but I'm not getting notified. And yes, I've checked my set-up, and the correct email address is entered in my comments settings.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

'Terrorist Watch List' Gun Ban Favors Hysteria Over Rights

Just what we need. A secret, unaccountable list maintained by secret, unaccountable people.

The American way, Comrade Frank Lautenberg-style...

Are you on it? Why? How can you get off it?

We can't tell you. It's a secret. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column expands on yesterday's to give us more evidence of just how subversive this weasel truly is.

Also find out about my California radio appearance later today, hear about the latest legislation from Oregon, see how the situation in Iran applies to us, learn about a rifle shoot for Chi-Towners, and get the latest from my fellow GREs.

There's a lot of information in today's column. I hope you'll share the link with your friends.
