Issa, Grassley staffers issue second joint Fast and Furious report

To suggest the AG was still blissfully oblivious about the activities of his command at that time and under those circumstances, and remained that way until happening across mainstream news accounts some months later, strains all semblances of credibility, particularly when considered against the since-corroborated reports that had been compiled by free agents, with no official information resources at their disposal, compared to the unlimited network at his.

This afternoon's Gun Rights Examiner report looks at the second "book" in a promised trilogy.

A Non-Envisioned Outcome

Democrats are favored to hold on to the Senate — an outcome few prognosticators envisioned at the beginning of the year. [More]
So why is a "single issue organization" helping ensure that by not considering partisan support for "the most anti-gun president in American history" as a grading factor/endorsement disqualifier?

We're the Only Ones Responsive Enough

Investigators say if the incident had happened earlier in the day, while First Lady Michelle Obama was visiting San Diego, the law enforcement response would likely have been much more severe. [More]
What, they would have just whacked him?

I love the reaction from across the pond in Sarah Brady Paradise:
Cops looking for underage drinkers find massive arsenal in student's trunk containing NINE guns including SNIPER RIFLE
It seems there's a lot more this story doesn't tell us than what it does. This one will be interesting to watch.

After marching about a mile, Hartman in advance spotted an Indian and fired. The Indian fell to the ground and a Tory near him fired at Hartman. He was hit in the shoulder and the air was now filled with smoke and whizzing musket balls. [More]

ATF whistleblower Cefalu calls on Romney to address Fast and Furious gunwalking

“As one of the ATF whistleblowers involved in the Fast and Furious case, we EXPECT President Romney to follow through, support oversight and most importantly consequences and accountability for those responsible for the death of two of our brothers Agents Terry and Zapata AND the 300 innocent Mexican citizens,” Cefalu wrote to the campaign. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner exclusive report welcomes an important voice to the exasperating quest to get Romney to back up his fine words with a commitment.

Today's second Gun Rights Examiner feature doesn't mean to start a fight, but it probably will. People need to know this stuff.

Ga. church shooting shows attacker aided by law disarming victims

Since when is it a legitimate and constitutional function of government for legislators to impose their religious convictions on others under force of law, and how is that different from Taliban-imposed Sharia? That's the real issue, and thus one so-called "progressives" refuse to even acknowledge, let alone object to if they are to be consistent with that church/state "wall of separation" they rush to erect every time it suits their agenda. [More]
This morning's Gun Rights Examiner report looks at a crazy evil law victimizing the good and the sane.

It is a Lot Like Stockholm Syndrome.

Kenn Blanchard says what needs to be said. Very well done. [More]

That's a Simple Case, Alright

The guy ignored a restraining order and then a "No Guns" sign, but if a background check had been required, why we'd all be drinkin' that free Bubble Up and eatin' that rainbow stew. [More]


"And, make no mistake," he writes, "this is a conversation the American public wants to have."
