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.
Now when are they going to arrest and charge his kidnappers? [Read]

Thankfully, there's still some judges who take their jobs seriously; to wit:
"The petition is so devoid of any factual allegations that it could not be reasonably expected to give rise to a case or controversy," the order says.
Seems that what happened here is that several LE Organizations felt comfortable seizing a citizen, all while pointing fingers at other agencies: "We're just here to support (insert name of organization).
This was bullshit from the start. Methinks that if there was nothing valid in Raub's posts, nothing would have happened, and he'd have been ignored.
However, now folks are likely to review his Facebook posts to find the offending item. It would be interesting to discover the person or persons who were "worried" by his posts.
Just before I clicked on this page I closed my facebook account over this whole situation. I know it matters not where one posts anything on the internet, but facebook seems more likely than other sites to share information with our .gov overlords. Good Riddance!

Probably came from a .gov address.
Well, I'm sure it was just some concerned citizen who flagged his comments to the proper authorities. /s
