Media derelict on more than four Obama scandals
And true to form, these are but the latest examples of a media that, instead of being a true watchdog over government with the prime directive of ensuring an informed public, have relegated themselves to the role of Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the best watchdogs haven't been "fixed."

Expert Opinions
Experts laid out a broad plan for firearms research on Wednesday, saying data is needed on who owns guns, where they keep them, how likely a gun is to be used to hurt someone else, whether having a gun keeps you safer, and whether there are ways to make guns any safer. [More]None of your business (but assume we all do and conduct yourself accordingly), none of your business again, that all depends on who has it (and should not presuppose hurting someone is necessarily a bad thing), again, it depends on who has it, and not without making them less reliable, that is more dangerous.
Jeez, I just saved everybody a ton of money there, and I'm not even an "expert," at least not one with the qualifications of Dr. Alan "No Political Agenda" Leshner, who is one because ... uh ... let's see ... CEO ... publisher ... drug abuse director ... psychology professor ... hormone and behavior specialist ... academic...
Say, y'know, I don't even see anything on this guy's CV to indicate he's ever even held a gun, let alone obtained any kind of formal training in safety, tactics, the law, the Constitution ... Why would he be qualified to lay out a broad plan impacting all of those, and why should his opinions carry any weight?
Sure, his professional and academic accomplishments are pretty impressive, but if your car were making a funny noise, would Al here necessarily be the guy you went to for advice?

Freeze!
With this simple announcement, new and safer state-of-the-art pistol models essential for home and family defense became impossible for Californians to acquire, because to be sold in California all new semi-automatic pistol models must now have microstamping incorporated into their design in order to be approved for sale in California. [More]So the stuff already on the roster--looking at the new edict, it appears its grandfathered -- does that mean models on the roster manufactured after May 17 are also exempt?
This whole damn thing is just so ridiculous and offensive.
We're the Only Ones Annoyed Enough
The Legislature has a responsibility to do everything we can to protect our brave heroes, our police officers, from violent criminals. [More]And this coming from a "Republican," albeit a New York one...

Welcome to the Party, Pals
Now people who are enraged that the NSA, under the Obama administration, has been spying on their telephone calls are getting a taste of what gun owners have faced. [More]Hey, if you're not doing anything wrong...
