Don't Let This Lie Go Uncontested

The lie is that "Threepers" don't involve themselves in the political process.

I'll put my record up against any blowhard who says this--especially the ones who libel us from the protective cover of anonymity. The only excuse they could possibly have to utter it is they are ignorant. The only other possible explanation is the person making such a statement is a liar.

Tomorrow I'm going to be talking about "the alleged leader of the merry band of Three Percenters" urging his readers to take political action in a very creative and worthwhile endeavor--something his critics, naturally, have been silent on.

UPDATE: My post here alludes to Mike at the end, but it became apparent while writing this column that it would be too long if I went into detail. It will all become clear in tomorrow's GRE.

Tyranny is counting on that.

We're the Only Ones Bringing Up the Rear Enough

A Gwinnett County police officer has been relieved of his duties and placed on administrative leave after being arrested on a DUI charge early Saturday.

James Stoudenmire, 27, caused a minor accident on Pleasant Hill Road after leaving Wild Bill’s, police said. His Mustang rear-ended a Mazda stopped at a light. [More]

Because "Only Ones" are more responsible than the rest of us, you see...

Jewish Gun Rights Group Says 'Boot the BATFE'

We saw support for this effort from the National Rifle Association, which calls the bills "a vital step to modernize and improve BATFE operations."

Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO) disagrees. They want nothing less than to "Boot the BATFE." Here's why... [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner presents an alternative to "reform": Elimination.

This is the second in a series I started yesterday. I plan on doing a wrap-up tomorrow.

Also get the latest from my fellow GREs.

Tell a friend?

See Part One.
