Liberty News/Safer Streets-Oct. 20

Here's the latest from Longenecker. [Read]

Metastasizing

I bet one could also equate this animation with expanded government interference. [Read]

Look at how rapid and drastic this is.  Now imagine a sudden national catastrophe.

Everybody who thinks everything is going to be just fine after November raise your hand.

Supply and Demand

Just look how well prohibition works under total government control! [Read]

Economics as taught by Father Guido Sarducci at the Five Minute University...

What's that definition of insanity again...?

"What Do You Want?" Information.

No, this isn't the recurring opening dialog from "The Prisoner."  It's a plea for assistance from Jeff Knox at GunVoter.org:
If you have pro-rights candidates you are supporting, please post information about them in the appropriate state area at GunVoter.org.

We're the Only Ones Probational Enough

A former Pleasant Hill police officer who stole methamphetamine from an evidence room and crashed his squad car was sentenced Friday to probation. [More]

Haslam Pledges to Sign Constitutional Carry Bill

Republican gubernatorial candidate Bill Haslam says he would sign legislation to eliminate Tennessee's permit requirements for carrying handguns in public, meaning most Tennesseans could go armed if they choose to do so. [More]
Would he really?

From Leonard Embody, via email:
He showed up at a Tennessee Firearms meeting last night. Me and a couple of other guys including Richard Hamblen got him to say he would sign legislation. This helps pressure the legislature.


This has been spreading all over Tennessee. It is a big deal because Haslam has a B rating with the NRA. He was a member of Bloomberg's Mayors against guns. As Mayor he oversaw the banning of guns in Knoxville City Parks.

Above All, I Must Not Play at God.

John Lott tells us about some doctors who take the Hippocratic oath as seriously as most politicians take their Constitutional one. [Read]

Pro-Gun "Progressives"?

So it's fashionable to be supportive of these national socialists, but not the other kind...? [Read]

[Via cycjec]

"Wrong, Misleading and Deceitful"

I guess we should listen to the experts on that, and support the candidate who endorsed the guy NRA called "the most anti-gun president in American history," and who uses the perverted pejorative "teabaggers" to describe limited-government conservatives...?  [Read]

I suppose they oughtta know...

Should gun owners have their heads examined?

That's pretty terrifying. Why wouldn't Australians want to make sure people like this are disarmed?

Why wouldn't we?

Could we if we wanted to? [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at one of the crazier citizen disarmament schemes out there.
