Deputy AG resigns following arrest in child sex case ... During the encounter, the boy said, "I'm only 16, take it easy on me"... [More]So naturally, this is the type of prosecutor who wanted to punish a defendant found not guilty of all other crimes for the "sin" of gun possession.
All I have got from him, is that “the Ministry have in Contemplation, the allowing Independence to America on Condition of Britains being put again into the State she was left in by the Peace of 1763” which I suppose means being put again in Possession of the Islands France has taken from her. This seems to me a Proposition of selling to us a Thing that is already our own, and making France pay the Price they are pleased to ask for it. [More]
Deputy sheriffs guarding jails in Stanislaus County are suing for the right to carry concealed guns off duty without permits. Patrol deputies and state prison guards don’t have to jump through paperwork hoops and pay permit fees, says the lawsuit, which asks a judge to give custodial deputies the same courtesy. [More]See, I can't support you getting a "courtesy" not extended to me. And it doesn't belong to any judge to give. Now if you guys want to treat it as an unalienable right, and demand that I get the same recognition you do, well, I'll be right there with you.
UPDATE 2: I took the raised concern back to the attys I vetted this with and asked what we should make of "Extension without change of an existing collection." The answer: "I don't think anyone knows for sure, but as [name redacted] already stated, it is likely a precursor to a new rule being proposed."
A second replied “I do not see any information that limits the multiple rifle reporting to 'only' border states in the new collection. The OLD federal register actually stated only the border states. I believe this is going to apply to all FFLs."And it does:
This requirement will apply only to Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs) who are dealers and/or pawnbrokers in Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas.The new one does not so limit things.
Had the Japanese got as far as India, Gandhi's theories of "passive resistance" would have floated down the Ganges River with his bayoneted, beheaded carcass.How the Bundy Ranch situation will play out is as yet unknown, but even if the worst of all outcomes happen, one engagement will not decide it all, especially since there are all kinds of options that have yet to be tried by people who are not surrounded, that is, who are everywhere.
CBS4 News has learned a total of 23 officers fired a total of at least 377 rounds. [More]
What is clear is that the idea of partisan war has taken hold among the people. [More]You know, the folks Harry Reid calls "domestic terrorists."

The Son, apprehensive that his aged mother may Stand in need of his assistance, and Supposing, also, that Some affairs of his family may require his attention, proposes, with your permission, to go within the Enemy’s Lines for those purposes. I take the liberty of recommending his request to your Excellency’s Attention. [More]
“Comments are encouraged and will be accepted for 60 days until June 16, 2014,” the notice advises. [More]UPDATE: A comment poster pointed out fine print: "Extension without change of an existing collection" which may mean this is limited to the border states--but the notice does not specifically say that, and does not indicate a subset of FFLs this will be required of. The "purpose" statement appears to apply to all. We'll need to watch and see. It's very unclear, and the lack of information means this is something that needs to be investigated to find out for sure.
Cops have barged into James Jordan Sr.’s family home looking for him more than a dozen times since he died in 2006 — prompting his exasperated relatives to finally post his death certificate on the front door.

If – God forbid – Patrice's worst fears are consummated, LA County Sheriff’s Deputy Julio Jove should be prosecuted as an accomplice. Jove helped Mark track down the would-be victim -- who had been relocated for her safety -- and held her in jail while the estranged husband burgled her home. [More]Hey, I'm sure he was just following department protocol and only wanted to get home at the end of his shift.
Unless you are willing to put in the time and money to force production of evidence, there's no way to document this. Back that long ago, it's not even for certain any docs got computerized, or if they're sitting in file boxes in some warehouse awaiting a record retention destruction date.If anyone has any better advice, I'll forward it to him and start using it in the future.
Without evidence, there is no way anyone but a lawyer can help you. If it's worth it to you, retain one. If he can come up with corroboration, there's a chance a gun group can then feel confident enough in the provability of your recollections to help with legal fees to pursue a lawsuit.
Will your witnesses sign affidavits? Can you and they name names of officers involved? Are they still with the force?
What state are you in? What's the state gun group there?
IF you go the legal route, clam up--don't say anything to anyone, even to me, as much as I'd like an exclusive story--and only release info that has been vetted and approved by your atty.
Journalism was not honored or mentioned by the WH this week, only the state-sponsored propaganda peddlers. The true journalists reporting truth forgoes a fat check & tolerates discrediting by the brainwashed masses for sake of truth. So, I will honor them... [More]

“We have to have the capability to save someone’s life, because the one time we would need it, but didn’t have it, the public would be screaming ‘Why didn’t those deputies go in?’” [More]Yeah, just like they've been doing for decades everywhere else.
I have the honour to inform your Excellency that there are in Philadelphia about 30 Invalids capable of doing some duty in garrison, which, if here, would allow drawing so many more able men into the field, as the weather is now favourable for their coming, but will soon be otherwise on account of the heat. I therefore request to know your pleasure concerning them. [More]
How many fire codes allow fire extinguishers that require a battery to operate? Before smartguns can be deemed reliable, therefore, they must incorporate countermeasures to address this issue.[More]Introduce a bill requiring all government buildings to have "smart" fire extinguishers. You could come up with a rationale such as to prevent unauthorized persons from tampering with them so they are available when needed. Sit back and note what the objections coming from the gungrabbers are.
Ron Paul, the former 12-term Congressman and Presidential candidate, takes a candid look at America’s increasingly dysfunctional political system. Drawing on his 24 years in Congress, he highlights the need to rein in unchecked government power. The author of numerous #1 New York Times bestselling books, Dr. Paul is a leading advocate for individual liberty, privacy, limited constitutional government, low taxes and spending, free markets, restrained foreign policy, and sound money.

The courts had found that the first part, the “militia clause,” trumped the second part, the “bear arms” clause. In other words, according to the Supreme Court, and the lower courts as well, the amendment conferred on state militias a right to bear arms—but did not give individuals a right to own or carry a weapon. [More]No cite for that, Jeffrey?
Why would anyone trust her not to push for a return to mandatory edicts as soon as she thinks it’s an opportune time to take back that which she never had any intention of permanently giving up?

Likening guns with obscene materials isn’t limited to loopy, agenda-driven ivory tower academics with no real-world influence. Anti-gun Senators Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer, with assists from Dick Durbin and Patrick Leahy, extended the comparison and went beyond it, advocating certain semiautomatics were equivalent with “child pornography,” and thus unprotected by the Bill of Rights. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the real obscenity here is politicians perverting the Bill of Rights.

Perhaps we should first see if police are better trained and more proficient with a firearm than, say, you. [More]My latest JPFO Alert notes the badge is not a talisman imparting special powers and abilities, as much as magical-thinking primitives might believe...
As CPRC notes, the Obama Administration is working closely “with 23 large foundations to organize a push for national gun control.” Additionally, “Michael Bloomberg donated $250 million to Johns Hopkins’ Bloomberg School of Public Health,” and “Obama has also been directing federal government funds towards gun control projects. Still other funds are being set up, such as the Fund for a Safer Future, which has $16 million to fund gun control research and is one of the many gun control projects being partially funded [by] George Soros’ Open Society Foundation. Recently, the MacArthur foundation has also been given a large million dollar grant.” [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes the antis have all kinds of help from government and “progressive” foundations and the media to spread anti-gun propaganda. As usual, if we want the truth to come out, it’s going to be a grassroots effort and it’s up to us. Will you help make this today’s Five Minute Activism project, by donating as little as one dollar and by spreading the word?
My latest GUNS Magazine "Rights Watch" column is now online.Here’s a question. Without looking, do you know who your representatives are, at federal, state and lower levels? Do you know where they stand on the right to keep and bear arms? Do you know who their opponents are, and where they stand? If not, why not? The good ones need your help, right now, and the bad ones need your resolve to keeping them out of office and power. And if you don’t know what their position on guns is, how do you find out? [More]

So, Mary, what's changed since 2010 to where it's now a "minor issue"?Having those rights, and preserving and protecting those rights are very important to me. If I'm fortunate to be elected governor of the state, I will continue to support our Second Amendment. [More]

“If the same reaction happens here, we’ll be out of business,” Raymond said in an interview.
