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.
Here is the letter I sent to Aaron Zelman in response.
Dear Aaron, I was enjoying your letter to Ted until I read this:
"On top of that, tobacco is a drug. Alcohol is a drug. Give that authority to the FDA. Explosives? Wasn't that an FBI specialty already?"
Exactly how are we any more rightfully subject to the DEA or FBI than to the BATFE?
"Gun control" and "the war on drugs" are both the SAME violation of our human right to self ownership. Responsible gun ownership is founded and nurtured in self ownership and self responsibility. _It is sorely sad to see JPFO insist on adulthood for us as far as guns are concerned, yet support (in any measure) continued infancy/slavery when it comes to what we eat, drink, smoke, or anything else._
Why is that, I wonder?
And "explosives?" Isn't it always against the true laws of the universe to harm other people? Those who do so by any manner must be found and punished. Prior restraint, however, is both impossible in its purpose and destructive to the lives and freedom of everyone. Just exactly as with gun "laws" that attempt to "prevent" crimes, the only people restrained are the honest people who need tools for self defense from those criminals who will always ignore the law - ALL of them.
So, what makes the FBI or DEA any different in your estimation than the BATFE? The horrors and crimes they have committed are just as terrible, and growing with each day. Let's be consistent. You rightly call for the abolition of the BATFE. The rest of the alphabet gangs from Washington DC need to be dumped on the same dung heap.

Aaron called me and invited me to write a guest editorial on this subject. I'll be posting at my website soon. :)
