Do you get the feeling that perhaps there’s a bit of projection going on? I mean, how could you trust others to behave responsibly when that ability is apparently so personally elusive?Today's Gun Rights Examiner column introduces you to a convicted "gun criminal" and Brady Campaign pick who doesn't trust YOU with guns.
And it gets better. Guess who endorsed Myers in 2008? And guess whose proposed laws get cited in a propaganda report demanding to shut down “rogue gun dealers” in PA? [More]

Isn't having a gun with an obliterated serial number a serious federal felony?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, that was 30 years ago, his mama told reporters he was always a good boy, and his main voter bloc, the criminals, know he'll never come for THEIR guns, so it's cool.
I'm not too surprised about the legislator with the bad past. It's just more only ones taking care of their own.
ReplyDeleteWhat concerns me more are the thoughts over at the ATF concerning pistol grip shotguns.
If I read this right, it appears that banning may come from bore diameter (less than 1/2 inch in diameter)and it is pointed out that the .410 might be the only one that complies with that ruling. This might affect the .44 and/or the .45 as well. I'll have to get the measuring tape or the micrometer out. But if this is true, then the BATF just banned some of the most popular firearms available to the American public.
Please someone tell me I have this wrong.

I apologize for the reference to the .45 and the .44. My only excuse is that i wrote that before my first cuppa caffiene.

Shotgun comment still seems apt....
As to the pistol grip nonshotgun: It appears that the definitions will probably be whatever a particular ATF agent says they are, on a day-to-day basis. Of course, one will not be able to hold the ATF agent accountable for his determination.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite responses from a bureaucrat is, "Those laws don't really mean what they say". Another was, "The only thing people know about the law is what we tell them".
Arrogance born of incompetence?? You betcha!

Didja hear? Career Dem-Soc operative Charles Rangel was censured by Congress, the worst punishment short of being drummed out, after being found guilty of numerous ethics violations. He says they were due not to bad intent, but to "carelessness."
ReplyDeleteMaybe it was even a STAFFER'S carelessness. Who knows? Should we expect a member of the most powerful legislative body in America to know what he's doing?
It's like Bill Cosby asking his son "Where did you get that weird haircut?"
"I dunno."
"What? Was your head not with you all day today?"
