Military officer calls for nationwide gun-grab

“We will pry your gun from your cold, dead, fingers,” Bateman threatens. So much for the illusion of civilian control of the military, although it does drive home the fear the Founders had of a standing army. [More]

Yeah, no kiddin'.

And then they'll go on to their next objective. And the next one.

That's why this stoogecraft is such bull...

As is this.

Why not create an event of your own?

And why did some agree not to stand for gun rights on that day again?  When are we going to stop letting these leftist f***s spook us? What, are we afraid they're going to say bad things about us?

Wanted: Better Ideas than These

So Doe Run would need $100 million to get their facility up to EPA spec?  [More]

And gun owners are now worried that this will not only further decrease the supply/increase the price of ammunition already hit by unprecedented demand and government procurements, but actually put the government in a position to "control" imports, with all that implies?

If that's the case, all the gun groups, industry groups and companies dependent on having ammunition for their products or customers could get together and lead their memberships in crowd-funding enough of a subsidy to make it worth Doe Run's investment to upgrade their facility -- perhaps covering the interest on loans or assuming enough of a percentage of the costs...

Then again, once the place got into compliance, the "sent hither swarms of officers" would probably move the goal posts... and does anyone know what unions are involved, and if they'd be willing to trade concessions for keeping jobs?

Perhaps the other way is to convince Congress to enact legislation to keep embedded Marxist government environmentalcases from destroying industries critical to national defense. Unfortunately (or more likely planned this way) the Republican establishment is doing its utmost to turn off its core constituents -- they're probably too stupid or compromised to do much more than snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Besides, the Dems would probably either strangle such legislation in its crib or attach so many riders we'd be better off if they did.

Gee, y'know what? It looks like there's no easy way out.  I wonder if Obama, or the next likely president, Hillary (if the GOP fields another RINO), could issue an executive order to further hamper lead for ammunition and lead ammunition imports?


Is there a solution? One easier than "liberating" ammo after the fact, or just giving up...?

As I have every Reason to believe that the Horse Accoutrements are exceedingly wanted at the southward, I could wish that means might be found, if possible to get them out of the Tradesmans hands and dispatch them.[More]
