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.
Dury's Guns in San Antonio accepts all major gift cards at full value for anything they sell, including guns. So if you get namby-pamby gift cards from anti-gun folks, you can turn them into new guns.
OK, I may be hung for this, but I do not see a problem here. ATF is not saying that gifting is illegal, they are simply giving advice. IMHO, it is not bad advice. While I would certainly be sure that anyone I gift a gun to is not prohibited, using a gift card would result in them having to pass a NICS check and result in all the records being in the recipient's name.
That said, prices are great and it's a wonderful time to give a gun!

Nope...we're not the Weimar Republic...not at all.
"Gun Control and the Third Reich" was all lies... /sarc
BTW that's a great Christmas gift idea... especially for Libs.
Actually, it would be a SUPERB gift idea for libs... if you could pay for the gift card after the purchase instead of prepaying for the card.
How about 80% kits for all the children that have been nice
Well now I am definitely giving guns for Christmas
