California Attorney General says feds not exempt from state ‘safe’ handgun law

“You might notice, as did the California’s Attorney General, that federal law enforcement officers are not mentioned in this exception!” Michel pointed out. “The ‘Department of Justice’ referred to in this section is the California Department of Justice, not a federal agency. So the AG’s analysis is correct: federal law enforcement is not exempt from the ‘unsafe handgun’ restriction." [More]

Amicus briefs filed supporting AG in Mississippi gun bill injunction case

Friend of the court briefs were filed yesterday in the Mississippi Supreme Court for the case of State of Mississippi v. Robert Shuler Smith supporting the position of state Attorney General Jim Hood. Last week, the attorney general filed an appeal petition and a motion to vacate an injunction by Hinds County Circuit Court Judge Winston Kidd preventing a law clarifying concealed weapons from taking effect. Smith is the Hinds County District Attorney, who along with a handful of legislators and constables, receiving legal prodding and support from the Southern Poverty Law Center, filed the action to block the new law.

Robert Zimmerman to tell family side of story on relocated AAR tonight

Armed American Radio will broadcast tonight's interview with Robert Zimmerman, brother of George Zimmerman, from an undisclosed location, host Mark Walters told Gun Rights Examiner this morning. Producers felt conducting the interview at the Crossbreed Holster Studio in Atlanta could pose security concerns following threats against the Florida neighborhood watch volunteer and his family, Walters confirmed.

It's a shame such measures are considered necessary, but it is definitely the prudent and responsible thing to do. The interview will take place in the 8 p.m. (Eastern) segment.

"The NSA does NOT spy on Americans!"

From a comment left by "dbervin" under this post:
The NSA cares about the rights of Americans...The NSA cares about the Constitution of the United States.
Please go and read his entire comment.  If you wish to respond, Examiner.com now uses Disqus to do that.

I do have some questions for Mr. Ervin that are independent of the Snowden debate: 

How can you know what you claim unless you are employed by NSA in a top slot?  If so, how long have you worked there, what is your position, and what is your security clearance level to convince us you have visibility on what decisions are made at the top and coordinated with the administration and other departments/agencies?  If you're not situated near the top, with top secret clearances and a need to know about such things, how can you know you're in the loop and thus presume to give any assurances?

Assuming such decisions are classified, wouldn't your telling everyone what is and is not looked at, if true, actually be of interest to true enemies and thus harmful to the "mission" and to national security?

Here's the thing though -- I see from a past comment over at The Captain's Journal, Ervin claims "I work indirectly for a US organization."  Whether that means he has the visibility and clearances to be making definitive proclamations is unknown, but leading with that statement means he is claiming special inside baseball knowledge beyond the ken of us mundanes.

I've seen he's also been posting NSA apologia all over the place--at WRSA and Cold Fury and other places... so he's obviously a man with a mission, self-appointed or otherwise.

And the Truth Shall Set You Free

Which explains why the Buckeye Firearms Association site is now down as they are weathering a particularly vicious attack:
BFA is under attack from an unknown outside entity. The website is down and communications systems are non-functional.

Here's what we know so far ...
 
 
If you've tried to visit our website today, you know it's not there any more. At some time this morning, it came under attack from an outside source.

FACTS:

  • Our IT guy says it's a "denial of service" or DoS attack. This is not the ordinary "hack" attack that we've experienced many times in the past. A DoS attack involves using significant resources to bombard a server to temporarily or permanently disrupt service.
  • This attack took out our websites, both Buckeye Firearms Association and Buckeye Firearms Foundation.
  • Our email communication services also went down. Leaders are located all over the state of Ohio, so we've had to set up a temporary alternate email list to stay in touch as we work through this issue.
  • This attack was so overwhelming, it took down the entire company that hosts our website. Thousands of IP addresses have been caught up in the digital bloodshed.  
  • Shortly after all the company servers went down, their power went down. And our IT guy says his cell phone service vanished.
We don't yet know where this attack came from, but we find it hard to believe that it is a coincidence that it's happening at the very moment a story went national about raising funds to enable George Zimmerman to purchase a new firearm after Eric Holder and the DOJ decided to prevent him from getting his personal property back.

We've received threats, hate male, and angry late night phone calls. We're sending you this message to let you know what's going on just in case they take out more of our resources and we are unable to communicate with you.

REST ASSURED: We are working on getting our website back up. And the work goes on to push pro-gun legislation, meet with law makers, and defend the Second Amendment. We may communicate online, but our strength has always been in our vast grassroots and our personal relationships with your representatives in government.

The check to Zimmerman is being sent to him as you read this. We collected $25,000 from our recent gun raffle. Our events and teacher training classes are moving forward. We CANNOT be stopped by technological temper tantrums like this.

I'm just going to rip off Andrea Shea King's entire introduction to this that she posted on Facebook:

Discussing the Anthony Weiner sickness and his and Huma's determination to continue his campaign for the NYC mayorship, I suspect -- nay, I BELIEVE that they have been made a promise from the same powerful handlers who are in control of Obama, most of our Senate, and at least two thirds -- likely more -- of our so-called Representatives in the House.

The handlers -- whoever they are and I'll leave you to speculate on that -- have selected Weiner to put in place to continue the Marxist policies of the current mayor, Bloomberg. Weiner is a broken, sexually addicted human, as lusting for power as he is for self-pornography and exhibitionist impulses. He can be controlled. The masters know his weaknesses, his "tells". Like a pimp feeding his hookers dope to "keep them sweet", the masters feed their minions with whatever it will take to "keep them sweet", (doing their bidding).

It's the same strategy being used with the doper homosexual Obama and his beard Moochelle, who has her own visions of self grandeur and a bitter and deep sense of entitlement. They are and will continue to be well "compensated" for trading in whatever soul they have with the "perks" that come with pushing forward the "greater cause". Fellow travelers, they are where they've been placed by their masters through Machiavellian and clever use of every tool available (think Google algorithms, social media, psychology of the masses, media manipulation, ballot/voter fraud, intimidation, blackmail, extortion, and oh so much more) to get the job done. What job? A new world order and all that that entails.

Huma, as we know, is Muslim and closely connected to the Muslim Brotherhood. Huma fits into and is part of the plan. Whatever she and her miserably sick, sexually addicted freak of a husband have been promised is worth more to her than the indignities she is publicly suffering. And let's not forget that Islamic / Muslim women taught to put up with whatever their husband's proclivities are. Couple that with Hillary's whispered promise that all will be worth it in the end... and well, it's not hard to get the picture.

All of this is part of the master plan -- putting in place (i.e. into power) those who can be controlled by their masters. And make no mistake -- Wiener, as well as Obama, and Clinton before them -- have their masters.

Hillary and Bill are high up in the pecking order. They are the capo de capo, trusted lieutenants of the masters. They've proven time and again they can be counted on to further the agenda. They've been tested. Affairs, lesbianism, alcoholism, his sexual addiction and superego, Benghazi... I could go on for days just recounting the f-ups of his administration. Both of them are dangerously broken people with bonafides.

The Bush family are part of it too. It all makes sense now why "W" wouldn't and hasn't said a peep -- when he was being lambasted for going to war, when he "Abandoned Free Market Principles To Save The Free Market System’", and when Obama pushed through stimulus, Obamacare, the NSA surveillance...

IT WAS PART OF THE PLAN. And he knew it. was beholden to it. Kept his mouth shut. He delivered us into the mess in the Middle East, spending our resources and treasure to enmire us in a hopeless situation, laying the groundwork for his successor to further enmire us in the fetid quicksand of the Arab world. I leave it to you to figure out why -- but here's a hint: petrodollars.

In Justin Raimondo's piece (linked below), he writes about the surveillance state that is surely the most magnificent move of the masters, the one that will keep us penned in as surely as the Jews were in the Warsaw ghettos.

"Of all the key aspects of an authoritarian regime, secrecy is the most vital in effecting the transition from relative freedom to a full-fledged police state. As the foundations of the liberal democratic order are eaten away by political termites operating in the dark, the democratic polity retains its traditional republican form – but is hollow at its center. That’s why the prescient Garet Garrett called the rising statist trend in the United States a "revolution within the form" – superficially, our old republic appears intact, but the old meanings of such concepts as "democracy" and "the rule of law" have been turned on their heads. Beneath the surface, the tyrant lurks, waiting for his moment…."

The only thing left -- the one so many -- like David Codrea and Kurt Hoffman and Mike Vanderbeogh -- are fighting mightily to prevent -- is the confiscation of our only means of protection against these masters. Guns. Once that is accomplished, game over.

Gang, we are being taken over by the masters. Wiener, Obama, and Company, are simply the soulless puppets emplaced by whatever means necessary to ensure that the takeover reaches its final objective.

Justin Raimondo's piece "Is America a Free Country?" is a MUST read.

There's a Lesson to be Learned Here...

Of course O'Dowd also says "When everyone in the media tells you the George Zimmerman acquittal had nothing to do with race don’t believe a word of it."

First of all, what media would that be?

But he's right you know, just not for the reasons he'd have us believe.  Of course Obama and Holder and Sharpton and Jackson and the eager corps of Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists have made the case (as opposed to the acquittal) all about race.

Like the very term "progressive," every day is "Opposite Day" for such wormtongues.

I wonder if the Republicans will be stupid enough to believe he has their best interests in mind when he urges Peter King to run for president, and calls Marco Rubio a "GOP braveheart."

The Idiot's Foreign Policy?

Considering the havoc that a mere 2,000 Fast and Furious guns caused in Mexico, what exactly will come of shipping anti-tank weapons to the same sort of Islamist militias who launched a full blown assault on the American mission in Benghazi? [More]
The title assumes those setting and implementing "foreign policy" are guided by the Preamble...because if you look at things from a different perspective, idiocy does not appear to be the best explanation.

Ammo Import Question

I received the following email request and confess I'm at a loss in terms for directing my correspondent where to look:
I am doing a research project about the current administration's policies regarding the importation of ammunition during the current shortage. 

As I understand it while there is a potential supply of ammunition from foreign manufacturers. However, the government has blocked (or severely reduced) the importation of ammunition from overseas. Some vendors may even have large amounts of goods (ammunition) siting in bonded warehouses being blocked from importation. The millions of dollars in high demand merchandise could be helping boost the economy and refill the depleted coffers of the government (state and federal) via taxes generated by sales.

However, I am having difficulty finding supporting documentation outside the classroom. Could you help me confirm this? Further how could I find the public records of the those shipments in customs warehouses?

If anyone has any relevant knowledge abut this, please educate us all in "Comments."

Funny--isn't JP Morgan the same outfit that has the exclusive credit card deal with ATF and that had a sweetheart deal with a "Gunwalker" bigwig?

Connecticut gun group opposes anti-gun GOP candidate for governor

For someone whose legislative actions dropped him from an NRA “A+” rating in 200 to an “F” in 2010, with an eight percent key vote record in 2012, there is no appreciable difference between Republican McKinney and Democrat Malloy anyway. CCDL is taking the lead to show gun owners -- in Connecticut and everywhere else -- that coordinated activists can force change, and that their demands can define a standard office holders must adhere to -- if not out of principle then out of a basic political survival instinct. [More
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report shows how an action in Connecticut can establish a template gun owners can use in contestable elections nationwide.

"Gun Violence" Avoided

Too bad. [More]

On the plus side, by not shooting the assailant, the victim won't be hounded as a racist.

Law enforcement overkill,arrogance displayed in wrong apartment raid

The contention of Marshal Matt Wiggins, that “We were clearly the police. She can't say she didn't know,” notwithstanding, The War on Guns Blog has documented many instances of criminal home invasions done under the guise of being law enforcement raids. A companion category to its “Only Ones” files (dispelling the myth that police are the only ones who can be trusted with guns) titled “Fauxnly Ones” provides numerous examples from news accounts over the years.

Just Talk

The Norwalk police had called Mr. Doutel prior to arriving at his home under the false pretenses of ‘just wanting to talk to him’. Mr Doutel had replied that they had no need to come to his home unless they had an arrest warrant in hand. Officer Jared Zwickler and fellow officers arrived at the home, ordering Mr. Doutel out of his home and then marching past the handcuffed Mr. Doutel into his home to search for firearms. [More]

Jeez, and we wonder why we don't already have that 2001 double-wheel space station and permanent moon base by now.

Too busy putting those tax credits to work shuttling George Takei to address the troops on diversity leadership at the invitation of Goddard’s Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Advisory Council, I guess, because, you know, being an actor who played a TV spaceman 40 years earlier makes one an authority and everything...

This is the perfect arena for the private sector to demonstrate what it can do -- if it can attract investors and resist subsidies, and if the government doesn't attach too many chains for bold ventures to lift off.

ATF requests public comments on firearm application form

Acknowledging that questions such as “What part of “shall not be infringed’ don’t you understand?” and “Where in the Constitution do you or Congress presume to get the authority to enforce any kind of ‘gun control’?” would be valid comments from the perspective of founding intent, Gun Rights Examiner nonetheless feels compelled to pass this information along to inform readers of this development, and to give those whose activities are impacted -- admittedly a relatively small (but important) segment of gun owners -- a heads-up to voice their concerns.

National Geographic gun expose instead exposes journalistic bias
