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.
How come you didn't correct your Britannica interviewer after he used the word "grants"? [Read]

I couldn't read much of it. It was a set-up from the word go. The interviewee stated conclusions that were not supported by the very research he did and he did so in a manner that suggested his conclusion logically followed when, in fact, his conclusion was a non-sequitir.
The interviewer tried his damnedest to establish by qualifiers to his questions that somehow this is a complex issue and we are all confused by it and need someone to lead us to the truth.
This issue only becomes complex when one tries to parse the words to say something they don't say. Otherwise the issue is very clear and needs no interpretation. Excepting, of course, when there is a desire to reach a conclusion that the constitution does not lend itself to.
If you want historical perspective on Article VII, Google Search "Oliver Cromwell Militia Army". Read the Wikipedia article on "New Model Army", the first Redcoats who were a full time militia not restricted to a region or garrison yet under civilian control, namely Parliament, and then the article on "Oliver Cromwell", a political leader who became a militia leader and later a British dictator intolerant of other religions.
Where is it in statute that I have an absolute right to utilize the fingers on my hand? I cannot find one single statute in all my historical research which grants me the right to use the fingers with which I was born.
It can be logically argued then, that since so many crimes are committed by people using all those unregulated fingers, and since there are virtually NO RESTRICTIONS on their use, that Government should impose a regimen of strict finger and hand control.
After all, There is absolutely NO legal standard for all these people going around using their hands at their own whim, thereby placing our children at risk, and making our society a more dangerous place.
People who claim to support Free Finger Rights are not only mistaken, they are irrational and dangerous.
Something needs to be done and it needs to be done now!
If it saves even one child's life, wouldn't it be worth it?
Sincerely.
