This is a placeholder for now because I have not had ads on this blog for years. In case I ever start up again, this will be the policy in effect:
The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don't think we're getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you're stupid, too. I have had a few ads on this site in the past and may do so again if I think it's worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn't buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don't mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now--you're not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer.
About "The Only Ones"
The purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it's also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they're involved in gun-related incidents.
Comment House Rules
Keep them on topic. No spam. No threats against anyone except me. Do not feed trolls--I'll take out the trash. Try to keep it clean. I'm the final arbiter. If you don't like the rules, start your own damn blog.
Link Policy
WarOnGuns reciprocates links with liberty-oriented sites promoting the right to keep and bear arms for all peaceable individuals. If you have linked to me and don't see your site below, it's probably just because I haven't noticed it yet. Shoot me an email via the "Contact Form" (see above in this sidebar) if you want to fix that.
As a general rule I remove links for blogs that have been inactive for over one year.
Sickening...just sickening. If you are considered too dangerous to have access to a firearm, you are too dangerous to be walking amongst society, period. Once a felon has "done their time," their rights (all of them) should be recognized and not infringed.
This is not a failure of the legal system, but it sure as Hell is the replacement of the justice system.
We have witnessed time after time how judges throw cases into the prosecutor's lap.
Sean commiserated above how we just "take it". My comment following is an example of why we must, for the moment, be available to exact revenge. Not justice, not recompense, revenge.
This is what our courts have decided is the only recourse we have. Though, most probably they aren't aware of what they have done, they have done it. There now ever increasing risk is still unknown to them, but these dogs will come home to them, and they will be feral.
One does not have to dial 9-1-1 to get his life screwed.
One of the federal inmates I see on a daily basis managed to get his life screwed up by telephoning a sheriff's deputy to ask what he should do about legalizing a shot gun he had recently purchased that had a barrel 1/2 inch too short.
The deputy recommended that he disassemble the gun, destroy the barrel, and order a replacement barrel of legal length.
Unknown to both of them, the DEA had a wiretap on the deputy's phone as a result of another ongoing investigation.
Next day, the man's house was searched by BATFE and the disassembled shotgun along with about 40 other legal firearms was seized. The man I've been talking to was sentenced to 8 years, the deputy was sentenced to 18.
Don't know all the details, this story is just what I was told by the inmate.

Quite frankly, the "right to keep and bear arms" is ABSOLUTE.
that applies even to criminals.
the only gun laws that are moral are those that punish law-breakers who use a gun in the commission of a crime.
