Newtown father tells rally anti-gunners don’t speak for all residents
“I’d just like to say that there are a lot of law-abiding gun owners in Newtown who are sick and very darned tired of politicians using the tragedy in our town to promote a political agenda,” Stevens declared, addressing some of them, including Governor Dannell Malloy, Senator Chris Murphy, whom Stevens called “a putz,” and President Barack Obama. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes there's another side to the story that no "Authorized Journalists" or politicians seem to be interested in telling.

That said, reading that he's tied in with a Satanic cult that claims international elites in its membership ought to be something that makes us take notice.
Why?
Well look who ol' Jay and his globalist wife Beyonce had over for dinner with lots of other well-heeled elites, and who admitted he considers Beyonce a role model for his girls and feels a sense of kinship with Jay-Z.
Accept or reject the theological implications of this as you will. Whether you believe or not, I'm going to operate under the assumption that THEY know perfectly well what they're doing and why.

Quisling...Paging Mr. Quisling...
As the conversation continues, NSSF will continue to work to find real solutions to FixNICS. [More]Real solutions? What, you mean by repealing it?
Evidently not:
A background check is only as good as the records in the database. FBI NICS databases are currently incomplete because many states have not provided all records that establish someone is prohibited from owning a firearm under current law, especially including mental health adjudications and involuntary commitments orders. Including these missing records will help ensure more accurate and complete background checks.
And the Constitutional authority for this is...?
Nancy?
These are the brains behind the "we have to give up something" poison circulating in the gun activist community. Reject them -- ultimately, they will prove immaterial to freedom.
They simply cannot conceive that a critical mass is sick and tired of Judenrat counsel and will not back up another inch. That's because we realize that the masters they are trying to please are evil, and the only reason they want "gun controls" is to disarm the citizenry, one surrendered beachhead at a time.
If you don't make them fight for every damn inch, if you don't make them bleed and give them pause, they'll just keep coming. How does it make sense to make us weaker and them stronger when we know that unless they are stopped, a day of reckoning will come?
Some of us, who don't work in Beltway offices and hobnob with power players, reject the notion that this has anything at all to do with "shooting sports."
Some of us -- and I suppose we'll ultimately find out if we have a critical mass -- have had it with collaborators who presume to horse-trade with our birthrights. If they want to go to the dance and speak only for themselves, fine, and may their chains set lightly.
Just leave those of us who don't the hell alone.

After Senate setback, Obama quietly moving forward with gun regulation
A Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Final Rule published today in the Federal Register and a news release issued Friday by the Department of Health and Human Services, followed up with a notice to be published tomorrow, are two developments all but ignored by the mainstream press even though Vice President Joe Biden announced last week that the administration would be using executive orders to advance “gun control” goals following a Senate battle that could not muster the votes to do so legislatively.[More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report notes all administration efforts aren't done with great fanfare.

Reese Witherspoon arrest shows privileged hypocrisy of anti-gun elitists
Unlike with drunk driving laws, which punish for after-the-fact violations, Witherspoon was one of a handful of privileged Hollywood dilettantes joining Mayor Michael Bloomberg to ‘demand a plan” to place prior restraints on sober and responsible gun owners, essentially to control those who have already exhibited self control as a response to those who do not. That Witherspoon recognizes this weakness in herself may provide a key as to why she fears others may also share in her character defects, and does not trust them to act responsibly on their own. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at another elitist reprobate who can't -- or won't -- control herself, so she naturally insists that the rest of us be controlled.

If this...this thing had bothered to absorb the story, including how it came to be, she would have noted an onlooking cop in the photograph accompanying this article and the explanation in the first installment that, while the rally was indeed cancelled, it noted the authorities "will allow a brief oath ceremony."
In fairness, though, civil disobedience, along with its consequences, were anticipated and pledged had Oath Keepers been told "No," so this smug little hive insect managed to stumble across a truth, even if she's too ignorant to understand its significance.
Applying identical criteria, one can only conclude she would have overturned the Zenger jury, condemned Thoreau and hanged Parker. Applying identical criteria, we must assume she would have sided with the slave-catchers and demanded the prosecution of Underground Railroad abetters, believed cuffing Rosa Parks was justified, and approved of King having to write that letter from the Birmingham jail.
This is what they mean by "progressive."
Wait 'til she gets a load of what some of us are willing to do if those in power, emboldened by what they perceive to be a critical mass of useful idiots, keep pushing.

Oath Keepers holds Lexington oath ceremony in spite of rally ban (Photos)
An appeal could not be filed due to the Supreme Judicial Court in Boston being closed, Rhodes explained, but despite the rally itself being cancelled, his group went ahead with a ceremony where about 200 members reaffirmed their oaths to uphold the Constitution. In spite of the concerns expressed by the Lexington Board of Selectmen in their revocation of the rally permit, people were freely gathered at nearby Concord Bridge, he observed, which seemingly proves the concerns were groundless.

The OTHER Rally
Tomorrow's, from CCDL:
Groton, CT –
April 19th, 2013- The Connecticut Citizens Defense League (The state's largest grass roots gun rights group) Is hosting a Gun Rally with the purpose of uniting gun owners from across the state, and to lay out plans to challenge the new anti-gun law that recently passed. The event will take place on the north side grounds of the Capitol in Hartford Saturday April 20th from 12:00pm-3:00pm. Guest speakers include Dr John Lott Jr who authored 'More Guns Less Crime' and Stewart Rhodes, who is the Founder of the national organization the 'Oath Keepers'. Other 2nd Amendment activists will be speaking as well.
CCDL states that while the lawful carry of firearms is allowed on Capitol Grounds, the newly passed public act (13-3) forbids the transporting of firearms that meet the expanded definition of an assault weapon, into most places, including the Capitol. Please be reminded that the carrying of firearms is also banned in Hartford city parks. The Capitol grounds share a boundary with Bushnell park.

What'll we be looking at first? Tampering with exports? Something else sure to screw us over and exact petty revenge?
In terms of pulling the gun bill, Chris Woodard advises Reid can bring it back at any time. Per a GOA alert:
Harry Reid’s bill (S. 649) is still on the floor of the Senate, and there are two scheduled votes that will take place tomorrow. Eventually, the Senate will vote on whether to end debate on the bill (known as cloture), but that vote won’t necessarily take place tomorrow. The Senate will need 60 votes to end debate, but if they can’t reach that threshold, the bill effectively dies. So GOA is telling Senators to vote AGAINST cloture on the bill, whenever that vote comes. ACTION: We think that we can defeat cloture on final passage of the bill. But, to be safe, GOA is encouraging activists to contact their Senators and urge them oppose cloture! You can reach them at 202-224-3121.[Via Andrea Shea King]

CCRKBA PULLS SUPPORT OF MANCHIN-TOOMEY ALTERNATIVE OVER RIGHTS RESTORATION
For Immediate Release:
BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has withdrawn its support for the Manchin-Toomey alternative background check measure because a key amendment for restoration of firearms rights is not being considered.
“Our support for this measure was contingent on several key provisions, the cornerstone of which was a rights restoration provision that is not on the schedule for consideration,” said a frustrated CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “This is not a reflection against Senators Joe Manchin or Pat Toomey, who are staunch Second Amendment advocates, and I want to thank them for all of their efforts to include as many protections for our gun rights as possible.
“But it appears the Democratic leadership in the Senate was opposed to letting this important consideration come up for a vote,” he said. “We told everyone including a number of senators, that while there are many pro-gun rights provisions added to the main body of the bill, our support was contingent on this additional amendment coming to the floor. When we say something, we mean it.”
Rights restoration has been withheld from American citizens for more than two decades, ever since Sen. Charles Schumer – when he was still in the House of Representatives – successfully strong-armed a provision to withdraw funding for rights restoration investigations by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
“Senators Manchin and Toomey are not to blame for this,” Gottlieb stated, “as they have been negotiating in good faith throughout this process. But Schumer and other anti-gun Democrats are continuing their campaign of demagoguery in order to permanently disqualify as many Americans as possible from being able to exercise their fundamental rights under the Second Amendment.
“If the Manchin-Toomey alternative now goes down to defeat,” he continued, “Democrats in the Senate, led by Harry Reid, have only themselves to blame. While the Manchin-Toomey alternative has a significant number of gains for gun owners, it will not include this key provision, upon which our support was dependent.
“We cannot, in clear conscience, continue to support a measure that will not include this critical relief component,” Gottlieb concluded. “If Democrats like Schumer thought we could be flim flammed on this, they were wrong.”
With more than 650,000 members and supporters nationwide, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (www.ccrkba.org) is one of the nation's premier gun rights organizations. As a non-profit organization, the Citizens Committee is dedicated to preserving firearms freedoms through active lobbying of elected officials and facilitating grass-roots organization of gun rights activists in local communities throughout the United States.
