If you wish to burn a copy, you can print it out here. That may be my first act of defiance--contributing to "climate change" because of that stupid little "Please Recycle" logo in the bottom right of the first page...
Workman tells us they're establishing a "Secretariat" to assist states with implementation. Why does that make me think that permanently putting down this horse-brained idea is the most humane thing to do...?

GOA Radio Live
The program is on from 6 to 8 Eastern. I'll be joining host Bill Frady at 7:00. [Listen here]
Obama floating new semi-auto ban puts administration intent above the radar
With this as background, Obama ending his self-imposed citizen disarmament discussion embargo, not only before the election, but the day before speculation in some quarters has him signing the ATT, ought to put gun owners on high alert. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes he's pulled the mask off, and asks if he'd be doing this if he didn't think it was safe.
(By the way, I used to have that model--I built all the classic Aurora monsters back when I was a kid.)
UPDATE: Here's the video:
State Crazy at CNN
Alan Korwin bravely enters the lion's den and handles himself beautifully. [Watch]
The very premise is offensive, and rather than being an impartial moderator between two guest debaters, Amanpour is the lead attack dog.
I'm very impressed with the way he handled both of his antagonists. It's not an easy thing to do, and he really did it well. I'm going to study this some more for pointers.
The thought struck--if the kind of madman they were discussing burst in during the broadcast, Alan would have been the only one capable of doing anything about it.

What a Difference a Day Makes
My, how things have changed. Just yesterday, San Francisco's ABC 7 was crying Barry wouldn't touch the third rail. [Read and watch]
Yih-Chau Chang makes a guest appearance in the video and does a great job representing us in the few seconds they allot him.
Anti-gun hypocrite Don Perata also gets his licks in. He can show his face again now that his party cronies have given him a pass on all those shady money deals.

Reese Family Update
Defense case starts soon [More]The family spokesperson sent me the following this morning:
The trial is going very well.The prosecution will be resting their case by Friday afternoon. Our defense team is doing a wonderful job. I will send you a great update later.Here's the latest recap from Tea Party Patriots of Luna County.
I'm also going to get some family pictures I can use instead of the mug shots the government is relying on to taint public opinion.
Of Course You Realize This Means War
If the Second Amendment protects the right of [redacted] to equip himself for mass murder, it’s time to repeal the Second Amendment. [More]What did I just get done saying about the "slippery slope"? Maybe the antis are right and it is a myth--looks to me like they're going straight for the precipice.
Somehow, I don't think Jerome here is going to help with the rounding up.
Things are getting interesting, people, and dangerous. I've never seen the Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists in such a state of mouth-foaming revival tent fervor.

The Rest of the Story
So the patriots are correct, gun ownership is in the constitution – if you’re in a well-regulated militia. Let’s see what no less a statesman than Alexander Hamilton had to say about a militia:You didn't complete his thought from Federalist 29, Jason Alexander. Sure, Hamilton knew people had trades to ply, farms to tend, shops to keep. Here's what he thought we should do about that:
“A tolerable expertness in military movements is a business that requires time and practice. It is not a day, or even a week, that will suffice for the attainment of it. To oblige the great body of the yeomanry, and of the other classes of the citizens, to be under arms for the purpose of going through military exercises and evolutions, as often as might be necessary to acquire the degree of perfection which would entitle them to the character of a well-regulated militia, would be a real grievance to the people, and a serious public inconvenience and loss." [More]
"Little more can reasonably be aimed at, with respect to the people at large than to have them properly armed and equipped."Why is it you went to such pains to present that passage but then left the key part out?
Speaking of Punks
EVERY 39 MINUTES, A BLACK CHILD OR TEENAGER IS SHOT IN AMERICA [More]So who's doing the shooting? And what "gun laws" did they ignore? Gee, you'd think if the problem were the guns, the four million NRA members would be suffering comparably.
NRA doesn't have to punk you, Russell Simmons. You do a grand job of that on your own. The only question is, do you feel lucky? Or were you expecting others to do your dirty work for you?
Yeah, the guy made $100m selling his interest in Def Jam, with "artists" influencing the "culture" currently in its stable like YG (short for Young Gangsta) and Gunplay. Lecture us some more, oh enlightened one.
No Wonder He Won't Talk to Them.
Suspected Aurora, Co. mass killer [redacted] used that kind of weapon, according to reports. [More]Wow, "Authorized Journalist" Dave Helling. Just wow.

Hang On, Here We Go!
Obama told the National Urban League here that he believes a lot of gun owners would agree that “AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers,” not civilians on American streets. [More]Alrighty then.
Meanwhile, Mitt proves clueless.
Something Must Be Done
Something needs to be done about these constitutional miscreants. [More]And about those who supported and confirmed them.
Some of us are getting discouraged about trying to do it nicely.
Transformers: Obots in Disguise
The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obama's first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of "transforming America" in his second term regardless of which political party controls Congress. [More]Yeah, I know, the Republicans don't have clean hands either.
There's a storm coming, regardless.
Expected to Die
Fed officials have long fought the audit bill, arguing it would compromise their independence. [More]But it's OK to compromise our independence? What could the true motives be of any politician who opposes this bill?
This Day in History: July 26
Chief Joseph Brant and British forces present in force on the grounds at Fort Schuyler. [More]
