The crux of the government's arguments revolve around testimony of Jose Roman, a member of La Linea, the enforcement arm of the Mexican Juarez cartel trying to save his own skin. As this column reported two years ago, when it noted “Records don’t back witness for the prosecution in Reese gun case,” Roman has been a career criminal since the age of 17, smuggling illegal aliens, guns and drugs, and who has been offered a plea deal in exchange for testimony. Significantly, he also admitted on the witness stand that he had provided false statements while making firearms purchases from the Reese’s gun shop. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes doubts are more than reasonable when the foundation is built on lies by government liars.

Propelling Us to War
I wonder what the Islamic State (why dilute who they are by using ISIS/ISIL acronyms?) would do to a fat atheist lesbian and the rest of this "progressive" media gaggle if they got their hands on Rosie & Co. [More]
No I don't.
One can only marvel at the situational witlessness of those who applauded. No doubt they'd clap and cheer like hell for demands to disarm American gun owners.
When you hear polls telling you how Americans overwhelmingly want background checks, useful idiettes are among the ones who have the strongest uninformed opinions.

And if I had my druthers, I'd start with the "do something" edicts, because anyone who can't be trusted with a gun can't be trusted without a custodian, so why not address the actual problem instead of assaulting the rest of us?

Save the Predators
Yet the Associated Press reported that Coronado has a history of direct confrontations, including spending four years in prison after setting fire to a Michigan State University animal research laboratory in 1995. [More]I wonder if that might explain why this convicted felon/prohibited person is against shooting predators...
I'd think a firebug domestic terrorist who thinks it's a good idea to stalk law-observing citizens ought to be wondering at what point people are going to get sick and tired of harassment from lunatics and start stalking back.
I found a website and a Facebook page for Michigan-based Yellowstone Wolf Patrol. What I'm really interested in, especially after noting PETA has funded this mental disorder sufferer, is who is bankrolling him now.

George Zimmerman to break media silence on Armed American Radio
Unknown at this time will be the extent of anticipated reactions by those in the angrily vocal camp against George Zimmerman, notably from personalities like Al Sharpton, and from members of the New Black Panther Party, who in 2012 offered a $10,000 bounty for Zimmerman's capture. It is for reasons of personal safety and security, as well as so the interview does not get disrupted and halted by protesters, that the physical location is being withheld. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report announces an upcoming event that is sure to kindle some flames of hatred, and no doubt protests against even allowing this to happen. Note that, like with another major story we're all familiar with here, it's not the "Authorized Journalists" who earned the trust to get the subject to open up.

Naturally, they refer to "the bungled 'Fast and Furious' gun-running sting operation," without ever questioning where the potential for a sting was. But what the hell: Even The Washington Times is still throwing out "the botched Fast and Furious gunwalking operation" as if not botching it would have been a better outcome.

Kennedy heir shows ‘progressive’ threats to freedom include more than guns

Leniency for ‘anti-violence activist’ who took gun to school suggests favoritism
Adding to the dubious nature of the sentence, where Ferguson evidently has avoided a felony conviction and thus becoming a “prohibited person” from owing a gun, is the fact that he was also a committed anti-gun activist, being a big supporter of New York’s SAFE Act, which carries felony criminal penalties for violators.

“So do all the voluntary gun buybacks you want,” the editors conclude. “But until they are mandatory, and our society can see past its hysteria over ‘gun confiscation,’ don't expect it to make much difference.” [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes cultists can't help but share what drives them into eye-rolling frenzy.

And sorry, troll "readinamazement"-- you offer pretty unorignal and expected fare for a sadist-psychopath / infiltrator-disruptor, right down to anonymously calling other men cowards.

The Limping Creep
The film is "tracking best with older males," meaning there ought to be a significant number of gun owners in the audience the producers are counting on.
That means there are a significant number of potential ticket buyers we can clue in to why helping this creep get even richer with their money is like giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
