The House Judiciary Committee voted the bill down 7-5.
Both Gibson and Abdallah say they have an A-plus rating from the National Rifle Association, which gives grades to lawmakers according to their support for the right to bear arms. [More]
But they'll ignore their oaths of office, vote against a bill that expands those rights and let it tank regardless of its merit because they don't like one group of constituents promoting it? And make sure they publicly disparage a smaller competitor group to their patrons in the process?
I wonder what kind of points they earned for that? It sounds more to me like someone didn't want the bill to pass for reasons of their own...

Ohio gun owners--are you going to make them carry this load alone, or will you help?
It eliminates a criminal charge ripe for abuse where the officer has discretion in determining if you met his or her definition of the term "promptly" that particular day.
It removes the statutory obligation to notify at any time, as well as a criminal penalty.
It removed the "hands in plain sight" requirements since a police officer could simply say your hands were not visible, which results in the same criminal charges. [Read]

Open Letter to Roberta Wagner and Latasha Robinson of the FDA
Because of these intended uses, your walnut products are drugs within the meaning of section 201 (g)(1)(B) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 321(g)(B)]. Your walnut products are also new drugs under section 201(p) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 321(p)] because they are not generally recognized as safe and effective for the above referenced conditions. Therefore, under section 505(a) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 355(a)], they may not be legally marketed with the above claims in the United States without an approved new drug application. Additionally, your walnut products are offered for conditions that are not amenable to self-diagnosis and treatment by individuals who are not medical practitioners; therefore, adequate directions for use cannot be written so that a layperson can use these drugs safely for their intended purposes. Thus, your walnut products are also misbranded under section 502(f)(1) of the Act, in that the labeling for these drugs fails to bear adequate directions for use [21 U.S.C. § 352(f)(1)]. [More]
Dear Parasites,
I guess if stupid unelected bureaucrats can declare Chore Boy scrubber pads are firearms under the right set of conditions, you two "just following orders" Ilsa wannabes can classify walnuts as drugs and make threats backed by force of state arms. Way to go securing the blessings of Liberty there, gals--but why bring up the Constitution? It's not like it has any bearing on your activities.
This is public notice that I am in possession of illicit walnut drugs and am administering them without any license to my family and advising them that eating them is good and healthy for them. In other words, that is, in your words, I am "a layperson us[ing] these drugs," obviously, if you are to be believed, unsafely "for their intended purposes."
Something must be done!
Be advised I am defying you and will continue to do so until you send someone to stop me--before I do it again! Also be advised that I will not go willingly, so bring a lunch (and make sure you include plenty of delicious, healthy walnuts!).
Jeez, next thing you know, petty government tyrant wannabes will be telling us water doesn't hydrate or some such foolishness, like we're Europe or something.
Some growers in CA pronounce almonds "ammonds" because, to get them out of the tree you have to knock the "l" out of them--prompting a friend to ask if we should call walnuts "whaaanuts" ("a" as in "and").
Whaanuts. Sounds like you two
In all sincerity,

Castle Keep
The Castle Doctrine law gives Ohioans the right to use lethal force to protect their person and property...[More]No it does not, either, "Authorized Journalist" Denise G. Callahan, although I don't expect you to understand why I'm taking exception.
And yo, Butler County prosecutor--if someone is in my home uninvited, job one becomes stopping the threat. If you and Colin want to call that "execution," fine. Just stay out of my home unless invited and you'll be fine.
The Larger Danger
We can only say that situations in which "seconds count" occur more in gun advocates' imaginations than in reality. We live in a community that is, by and large, safe and law-abiding, with a populace that is mostly courteous and restrained. The larger danger is from accidental shootings. [More]Here are the unsolved Winston-Salem homicides.
Neighborhood Scout rates it a "4" out of a possible "100." Your chance of becoming a victim in Winston-Salem is "1 in 109."
Now then: How many "accidental shooting"cases by permit holders--that's who this editorial is aimed at preventing from carrying--can whoever expects us to swallow this unmitigated horsecrap provide documentation for, so we can see for ourselves whether or not he knows what the hell he's talking about--or more likely, is just a shameless and cowardly Fourth Estate Fifth Columnist liar?
That being the norm among "Authorized Journalists" is "the larger danger."

Holder position on voter ID exposes racial discrimination against gun ownership
If Perez is correct, that lack of state-issued photo ID is 20% more likely to disenfranchise minorities from their right to vote, why would we not also believe it would have a similar effect on their right to purchase a firearm, as is specified on ATF’s Form 4473 requiring a driver’s license or “valid government issued photo identification,” and similar forms as proof of eligibility?Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary objects to a government-imposed requirement that they themselves consider racist--when it suits their purposes.
The government can’t have it both ways. [More]
200
Emboldened by a new Republican majority in Richmond, some 200 people rallied on Capitol Square Monday to push gun-friendly legislation, hours before a crowd occupied the same space to commemorate victims of gun violence. [More]200? Hell, I found 1,250 firearms-related businesses alone in VA. Why the hell weren't there 200,000?
I remember we got about 200 gun owners to show up at a demonstration in LA--the weekend after 40,000 of them managed to drag themselves to the big area gun show back when it was still allowed at the LA County Fairgrounds. Most didn't lift a finger to stop its expulsion from happening, either.
Pathetic, the number of do-nothing welfare parasites in "our" ranks. Yeah, let someone else do it. Profiles in Apathy, that is, the gungrabbers' best friends, strike again.
On the plus side, it looks like the cud-chewers did a lot worse.And here's a wonderful illustration of how they operate:
“We think that the laws on the books in Virginia are reasonable,” [Lori Haas] said.Followed immediately by:
Sen. A. Donald McEachin, Henrico Democrat, said at the afternoon vigil that he planned to introduce legislation calling for universal background checks for gun purchases.Gee, they're so "reasonable," we must have more!
Not that the frickin' Republicans will do anything beyond the bare minimum needed to exploit gun owner desperation...
And they can get away with it because, as we observed, only 200 showed up.
[Via Drew R]
Yes and No
Yes:
What is occurring is that some folks in DOJ & ATF, along with Democrats and the main stream media are using law enforcement terminology to confuse the public by not distinguishing the differences between the terminology gun walking used in Operation Fast & Furious and the terminology controlled gun delivery used in Operation Wide Receiver.No:
The nation’s federal gun-law enforcer, ATF, in conjunction with a task force composed of several other federal agencies, allowed nearly 2,000 weapons to be smuggled into Mexico via Fast and Furious. These “controlled deliveries” of deadly weapons were put into the clutches of criminal organizations so that ATF could later trace the trail of those guns to the kingpins of Mexico’s criminal organizations.Judges?

The Spanish, who were at war with the British because they had chosen to back the American rebels in the War for Independence, saw the British fleet in pursuit and attempted to retreat home to the port of Cadiz. As they fled, Rodney decided to ignore the accepted rules of naval engagement, which involved two lines of ships bombarding one another with cannon much like two lines of infantry confronting one another across a battlefield. Instead, he decided to attempt to overtake of the Spanish ships by giving orders of "general chase"--having each British ship chase the Spanish fleet to the best of its ability.

Kind'a makes you wonder what this other "pro-gun" moron was thinking when he supported a government mandated purchase limitation infringement, but then again, do you really care why someone attacks you as much as what you need to do to make him stop?
There are better ways to prevent illegal interstate firearm trafficking. One method is BATF's Multiple Purchase Reporting Forms.Jeez, why do we even need to hear from this lying thug?
Almost 19 years later, Virginia's one-handgun-a-month purchase law continues to serve as a balanced solution to help stem the flow of illegally purchased handguns from Virginia to other states. The genesis of the law was the result of a large number of handguns that were purchased in Virginia being used in the commission of crimes in New York City and other urban centers on the East Coast.Right. Do it for Bloomberg. There's a reason for restrictions on me.
But the thing is, it doesn't do a damn thing. Look at ATF's own trace summaries for VA to NY:

2008: 502/ATC: 13.03
2009: 443/ATC: 12.77
2010: 415/ATC: 13.65
Nothing meaningful can be really gleaned from any variables here, and keep in mind, the average "time to crime" for New York during these reporting periods is measured above in years.Kind'a makes you wonder what this other "pro-gun" moron was thinking when he supported a government mandated purchase limitation infringement, but then again, do you really care why someone attacks you as much as what you need to do to make him stop?
