Entry: 'Some people simply shouldn't have guns'

Victoria - I think That People Shouldn't Have Guns Without A Permit And Age Over 25. [More]

I think she meant to say "believe," since no thinking went into this.

This is an old Gun Rights Examiner column, and people are generally smart enough to figure out that new comments are unlikely to be noticed by anyone. But in this case, there's no need to keep it a secret and I'll give her the audience she's trolling for.

I don't always do that since it tends to take the comments off topic and I don't like to see the threads get derailed. But in this case, it IS the topic.

McCarthy Introduces 'Gun Trafficking' Bill

Unsuccessful (at present) in her quest to ban the shoulder thing that goes up, she now maintains she can make an impact on violent crime by...uh...I'm not sure what she thinks this is going to do. [More]

That's it for today. Three Gun Rights Examiner columns are too much and I have other work unrelated to all this that ain't gonna do itself.

Anyway, go read, and do tell a friend. I'd hate to think the ball wasn't being run with once handed off.

Bigger than Ever

And when he comes back, whenever he comes back, he will be bigger than ever. [More]

It doesn't surprise me that the paradox of the world's top professional athlete being a chronic cheater isn't what sports urinealist Mike Lupica puts his focus on.

Of course, we've already seen that when it comes to exhibiting higher principles, this hack fails the test.

The ol' "pH Factor" at work.

That "we" may be admiring and rewarding the wrong people doesn't even enter into things, does it?

Would you like some bread to go along with that circus?

Not Just Wrong, Evil

I wish they'd get get that part right. [More]

Al Gore certainly is a cowardly POS, is he not? Only in the Bizarro World could a scoundrel like this occupy a place of prominence.

No wonder this country is so screwed up.

New Year's Gun Rights Resolution: Send a Politician the Gun Rights Questionnaire

I will send at least one politician a copy of the gun rights questionnaire and then make his answers or lack of response known to my fellow gun-owning voters. [More]

Here's today's second Gun Rights Examiner column and the fifth in my daily series on New Year's resolution suggestions for gun owners.

We're the Only Ones Valorous Enough

Kang and his partner received the Medal of Valor for the shooting in 2004. [More]

You know, the one where he shot a bystander in the foot and the bystander's claim was then "dismissed without merit."

Kang...Kang...where I have I heard that name before...?

I guess if I had the luck o' the "Only Ones," I might feel like I could go around busting people's jaws, too. After all, good luck to an "average citizen" who wants to also carry a gun in Hawthorne.

Those of us who have been in a position to make that decision know the risks we assumed. And if we had been caught, no one in authority would have called us valorous for choosing self-preservation and principle over fear of punishment and the ruin it would bring to ourselves and our families. We'd have been called gun criminals. And we would have been considered lucky if a broken jaw was all we suffered.

We're the Only Ones Not Breathing Easier Enough

I just got the following email from WarOnGuns Correspondent Mack H. I can't improve his presentation, so I'll just paste it here:

This is really ironic. Please follow along...

1) Remember Sean Bell? Shot dead in NYC on the eve of his wedding?

2) Well, in the aftermath, NYPD imposed a new mandatory Breathalyzer Policy.

3) The incredibly selfish Cop Union, the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association, objected.

4) They took it to court.

Statement

5) They lost.

4th amendment

Opinion

Go down to "A. The District Court Properly Applied the Special Needs Doctrine"

That's where it gets interesting.

So, the union believes they ought to be exempt from any and all breathalyser tests. They are the ONLY ONES, right?

Right. They believe they are. That's what being an "Only One" means.

So a loss is actually astonishing. Because they're not just "Only Ones." They're "Furious Mike Only Ones."

And they're not just "Furious Mike Only Ones." They're "Liberty-Lynchin'/ Stephen Abootman/ Lift-a-finger and we'll kill you Only Ones."

Broom stick, anyone?

Bankers to the War on Freedom

Drugs money worth billions of dollars kept the financial system afloat at the height of the global crisis, the United Nations' drugs and crime tsar has told the Observer. [More]

And we use it further to increase the advance and grip of our tentacles under the guise of "law enforcement."

"Law and order" gun rights advocates--stop being stupid. It's not really a war on drugs, it's a war on freedom. How can you not get that?

Letting government treat it like a war enables tyranny and endangers liberty.

Q.E.D.

Nevada US Senate Candidates Amodei, Chachas and Kozack Ignore Gun Rights Questionnaire

Nevada provides us with a perfect convergence of candidates and circumstance in one of the highest profile races of 2010, kind of a "lever moving the world" political situation. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at three contestants for political office in Nevada who evidently don't think they owe voters an unequivocal explanation of how they view the right to keep and bear arms.

Also meet a candidate in Texas who does, read an open letter to domestic enemies, and get the latest from my fellow GREs.

This Day in History: December 15

American representatives in Paris begin negotiations with British agent Paul Wentworth, whom Ben Franklin considers unsavory and two-faced. The negotiations with Wentworth prove fruitless, although the motivate the French conclude an alliance with the Americans. [More]

And no, I did not forget it is also Bill of Rights Day--I have been focusing my daily history posts for the past year on 1777. I talk about BORD at the end of today's GRE column.
