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.
Done. Confirmation Your e-mail message was sent to: Senator Mark Warner (D-VA)
Though I'm thinking that Warner is not going to be as moved by his constituants as by the Democratic leadership.
I did add this to the beginning of the canned message: As Senators from the land of Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry you have a particularly important legacy to uphold in recognizing the protections from Federal government intrusions into the personal rights of the citizens that written into the Bill of Rights.
Your e-mail message was sent to: Senator Charles E. Grassley (R-IA) Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA)
Harkin is firmly in the anti camp. Grassley I'm not so sure about anymore. Especially after his statement about including knives in the gun control debate.
Done, as if it will ANY good, to Sens. Durbin & Kirk. Durbin is leading the charge, and Kirk is a RINO. He's never met an anti-gun bill he didn't like.
Done in FL. I suggest sending twice, once the "prepared" GOA message they'll ignore, but count to see how many are listening, and a 2nd in your own words to show you care enough to string together a coherent thought on the subject yourself... ;)
