Hard of Hearing?

This came up on today's Michael Dukes Show:

I don't know if ATF's Turk and Temple have appeared before Oversight yet.

Go to 32:00 at the Oversight video:


Chaffetz issues subpoenaes for them to appear on the 21st and 22nd respectively. If confirmation or an update on that appears anywhere, I'm at a loss to find it.

Let me ask him directly.  Chances for a response would be better if others asked as well.

Brits Express Gratitude for Being Disarmed after Latest Terror Attack

According to all credible measures, that’s the way most Brits like it. While there is a small segment of the UK population active in promoting the shooting sports and abolishing the Firearms Acts that banned, among other firearms, centerfire semi-automatic rifles and handguns, the sympathies of the general public are pretty much where their rulers want them to be...

He had a prison record and they gave him access to it? Seeing as how my "law" isn't what drives policy, you have to ask what kind of negligent or corrupt "leadership"  -- and the two aren't mutually exclusive -- would allow that?

You know, establishing effective secure property procedures just isn't that hard. The state ought to do an audit of at least the past 10 years and see what else has walked out. Because my guess is there are bigger fish than Moppy here.

The Range was There First


I am a member of Peacemaker and a resident of WV. In this morning’s Martinsburg Journal “Newspaper” this story was printed. Now fact number 1 according to the “newspaper” the range has been open since 2010. #2,The Goldstein’s bought their property in 2011. #3 The complaint wasn’t filed until August 2015. [More]
And here it is:
According to a Peacemakers supporter, the Goldsteins bought their Virginia property in December 2011, after the Peacemakers gun range had been established. The Goldsteins didn’t file a complaint until September 2015.
That means they either didn't do due diligence -- or they did and knew exactly what they were doing.
And it looks like their Insurance Company is claiming they're on their own.

UPDATE: The newspaper's information appears inaccurate. I was able to track property tax records online to 2010, which appears to be as far back as the Frederick County Treasurer's website goes.

Here's the filing --note you may have to try a few times, as it's on my One Drive account and multiple people trying to access it may crash it.

In a rare confluence of agreement, both the NRA and the Brady Campaign supported the project, seeing it as a way, on paper at least, to reduce violent crime that appeared to be spiraling out of control. The fact that it would require that officials of the federal government, namely the DOJ and its enforcement arm the BATFE, to “coordinate” with local law enforcement didn’t bother either the Brady bunch or the NRA. Said Wayne LaPierre, the NRA’s Executive Vice President: “By prosecuting [criminals violating gun laws, it] prevent[s] the drug dealer, the gang member, and the felon from committing the next crime … leave the good people alone and lock up the bad people and dramatically cut crime.” [More]

Sessions Embracing ‘Project Exile’ a Result of Exclusive NRA Influence with Trump on Guns

So expect AG Sessions to go forward with a renewed “gun control” enforcement emphasis, and attribute that to NRA having near exclusive access to President Trump’s ear on the gun issue. That’s due not only to its early and continued political support of his candidacy, but also because the other national gun group with a dog in the Exile fight, Gun Owners of America, sat on its hands, declining to endorse Trump after its preferred candidate, Ted Cruz, had been sidelined. Agree with that stance on principle or not, the political reality – and that’s the field lobbyists play on – is that NRA has a seat at the table. [More]
So Project Exile not only doesn't work and isn't Constitutionally authorized, but I never did hear back from the "enforce existing gun laws" crowd on how that's any different from saying "enforce existing Intolerable Acts."
