What do you think? Would you buy one of these guns? [More]No, I would not.
For me, anyway, it's a matter of conditioned expectation/safety.
I also don't trust ATF not to rain on everybody's parade.

Notes from the Resistance...
What do you think? Would you buy one of these guns? [More]No, I would not.
The present mode of encampment, tho’ extremely ornamental and convenient, may, without the utmost care subject us to the loss of our tents by fire—the Boughs of which the Colonade is composed being so very dry, that a spark of fire or a candle falling among them would not fail to set them instantly in a blaze. The Commander in chief therefore recomends the gratest circumspection to the officers in their Marques and tents, and directs the officers of police to see that the soldiers do not make use of fire or Candles carelessly in theirs.

Per Project VoteSmart documentation of her voting record on guns, Torres voted to prohibit semiautomatic rifles with detachable magazine, to expand the list of crimes that disqualify individuals from firearms ownership, to prohibit lead ammunition for hunting, to prohibit open carry, and to expand firearms registration, among other bills considered in the California Senate. And there is no reason to believe this “‘symbol of leadership’ for migrants” won’t do the same thing at the national level. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a trend that, unless reversed, will bring gun owners closer to having all legal means of recourse shut off to them.
I've observed before, this is nothing short of child abuse under color of authority. It’s also an insidious form of cultural brainwashing, where references to that which the founders deemed “necessary to the security of a free State” are erased from the collective memory. It’s mass purging, not all that dissimilar to a practice perfected by the murderous tyrant Stalin, as illustrated in “The Commissar Vanishes,” and which Orwell chillingly elaborated on with his description of “unpersons.” [More]My latest JPFO Alert notes if "progressive educators" have their way, the Second Amendment will become an “unright,” vanished from the history books.
NRA has thus far avoided addressing any of that by falling back on the claim that they focus exclusively on the “single issue” of the Second Amendment in their political evaluations. That has allowed them to continue assigning “A” ratings to politicians who enable an amnesty agenda pushed by both the Obama administration and Tea Party-opposing Republicans, squeezing principled candidates out in the primaries to ensure only establishment-sanctioned match-ups on election day. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes Wayne LaPierre has opened a door he should be invited to actually walk through.
Policing report: Victims 'asked to investigate crime themselves' [More]There's a Monty Python skit in there somewhere...
There are three things the public needs to know about contacts with police.1. Be courteous 2. Be cooperative 3. Be compliant [More]You know, suck up and obey, or be destroyed.
Police said the man who killed the teen was defending himself. [More]I see our good friends the "Authorized Journalists" / "real reporters" / "legitimate news media" are using code words again...
The Action of 5 September 1782 took place during the American War of Independence between two French Navy frigates, Aigle and Gloire, and a lone British 74-gun ship of the line HMS Hector. In a two-day battle, the two frigates severely damaged Hector and only failed to captured her when a British squadron appeared on the horizon. [More]
