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.
He certainly has a huge "but." It's not about paying a few cents more per round, but about those of us who've invested in hundreds or thousands of dollars in lead ammunition eventually being forced to pay to have it hauled away as HAZARDOUS WASTE and start over (sign here, photo ID and thumbprint, please). Tell me THAT wouldn't get you on a "domestic extremist" government list. Condors and other scavengers aren't doing well in California despite the lead ban. There are other factors involved, and they need to drop the junk science. They REALLY don't want to pursue this.
Already read up on this moron, there are FOUR people in his whole "organization". Also note how he references the x-rays showing conclusive "proof", but doesn't really reference any way someone else could look at the sooper secret x-rays. Because they don't exist, and he's only seen them in his mind.
bullets don't shatter, what have these people been smoking? most lead shot from shotguns would pass straight through the gut of most animals also. their argument just doesn't hold water at all.
i don't see any reason why not to make and sell alternative ammunition to the standard lead and copper jacket variety, for example, a plastic saboted tungsten projectile (CBJ?) has some advantages but of course it goes without saying that tungsten is hellishly more expensive. but to ban lead projectiles is ridiculous. it's not even slightly similar to lead in gasoline.
This jerk is no more a hunter than John Kerry. His lies about "many, most" animals dying from lead ingestion is enough to make me hurl. It's not even junk science - it's total fantasy.
I can remember having a bit of respect for the Times forty years ago, but what a joke they are now. I'm a former New Yorker, but it will _still_ be such a pleasure to see this yellow rag get flushed down the old crapper.

He says "we immediately get a picture on the screen..." and the vid ends.
I wanted to see the "snowstorm", damnit!
Does someone have the link(s) to the studies on this which show no lead poisoning even in people who live on meat shot with lead?

Gutpiles? Really? I'm not convinced this guy is a hunter. Hunters don't aim for the guts.
