Going for Broke

Attkisson, who broke the gunwalking story back on the February 23, 2011...[More]
The Dickens, you say, Geoffry Dickens...and here I thought...

It does get tiresome.

Especially the being broke part.

‘Proclaiming Liberty’ a great resource for keeping gun quotes accurate

Who are rationally-inclined people going to listen to? Some frothing hoplophobe or William Blackstone? [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary proclaims the usefulness of an educational and enjoyable read.

Georgia Constitutional Carry Alert

But don’t bother looking for a meeting announcement on the House calendar. House ‘leadership’ doesn’t want you to know about this meeting – so the meeting notice wasn’t published online.

Worse still is the fact that by the time you read this we’ll have less than 24 hours to respond! [More]
WRSA shares an alert requiring immediate action.

Gee, you'd almost think the "leadership" wasn't there "to transmit to posterity the enjoyment of liberty" or something...

Mitt Good for Guns!

Mitt Romney, on the other hand, has taken a firm, pro-gun rights position, and unlike the President, has a record to prove it. [More]

Kool
Aid
please...

Mitthead? Care to weigh in?

It's All In How You Word It

See, when you're relying on many forming their impressions by glossing over headlines, you could say "2 groups drop suit over gun ordinance," or you could say "Council surrenders on gun ban to avoid court loss" or "Gun rights proponents claim victory as council caves." [More]

If you were an "Authorized Journalist" with an agenda, what would you say?

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise...

We're the Only Ones chasing our tails enough. [Read]

Do yourself a favor and before clicking on the source link, have this playing in the background in a separate window.

And Now for Some REAL News

Sorry, but this is important, unlike the trivial matters I routinely fixate on and whine about.

We're the Only Ones Having a Special Enough

You know, one for the price of two...[More]

Actually, we may be on to something here. How much do they need to increase his salary to get rid of all of them, and take the likelihood of violence initiation down even more? 

It might be worth it.

I mean, it's not like people who can't even maintain a website are out there serving and protecting anyone anyway, besides themselves, that is.

A Violation of Spirit

Paul Valone, president of Grass Roots North Carolina, said he believes the Winston-Salem ordinance passed in November violates the spirit of a state law passed in July. [More]
That ain't all it violates.

You Can Never Have Enough "Gun Control." Never.

According to reports, it is not clear whether the arms shipment to Nigeria was on behalf of the Nigerian government or by private organisations or individuals. The volume of the cache would suggest that the government had something to do with it. But it is disturbing that neither the Ministry of Defence nor the army headquarters has made any categorical statement on the matter. [More]
Gee, where have we seen those types of concerns raised before?
[I]t is another indication that arms importation into Nigeria is not sufficiently regulated. The laws guiding its effective control also appear to be loose as compliance to them is doubtful.
Dang--Democrat talking points, right on cue!

With the predictable results!

Still, Goodluck on finding a permanent director!

Shared Values

“This bill eliminates Virginia’s only practical law that attempts to limit bulk purchasing of handguns for use by traffickers, who buy guns here in Virginia and sell them illegally all over the country,” Favola said. “This legislation affirms our shameful reputation as a gun-running state.” [More]
In other words, she's "championing the progressive values we share."

All the most successful progressives share them, you know.

It's OK When THEY Do It

“What this is, is a slippery slope of the gun lobby trying to eventually do away with any permit system,” Malte said. [Read]
Damn right, Brian. We don't need your damn permission. At least we're honest enough to admit it.

Funny though, how when the "slippery slope" is tied to your steady attempts at erosion, you fear, distrust and suspicion-gripped projectionists can't howl "Paranoid!" fast enough.

For the Children

Firearms pervade our culture; they make some people feel secure and others afraid. Many people have no interest in owning (much less firing) one. And we'd rather not live near a commercial establishment that supplies folks who do. [More]
So there.

Good grief,  a business jumps through all the hoops required by frickin' New Jersey, for cryinoutloud, and that's still not good enough for children's book author DyAnne DiSalvo.

Can't have merchants in Merchantville--at least ones DyAnne deems unsuitable.

This is disgusting on so many levels, not the least being the treacly empathy exuding from sob sister Kevin Riordan, who really needs to wash this off and pop it back in.  Funny--the article doesn't invite comments...but at least there's some truth in the "More Like This" sidebar link section: Those articles are blatantly anti-gun, too.

Figures a "progressive" author who's offended by freedom would feel right at home at the UN International School in Hanoi...but then, after looking at her stock of "community"-oriented child programming materials, this hive insect queen wouldn't be offering anything the central planners wouldn't approve of--unlike literary freedom-seeking Vietnamese youth  whom they repress with their monopoly of violence.

Good thing the chances of having DyAnne and Kevin's gentle sensibilities offended by a gun store in Hanoi are pretty slim.

We're the Only Ones Favourable Enough

Cooks police favour tighter gun ownership laws [More]
Of course they do.
The police commissioner...says the only limit on gun owners at the moment is the need for an import permit from the police minister.
Really? That's it? Otherwise, people can own machine guns, or open carry, or concealed carry, or...

No?

You mean to tell me that a police commissioner is nothing but a f***ing agenda-driven control-freak liar?
