Meanwhile, Over at that Wall of Separation the Libs are Always Talking About

President Barack Obama on Thursday signed an order establishing a White House office of faith-based initiatives with a broader mission than the one overseen by his predecessor, Republican George W. Bush.[More]

Besides, it's not like Lightworker worship is religious or anything...the fact that it's the One True Faith means it's...uh...true.

So don't look for Americans United Against Non-Marxist Church/State Partnerships to say much of anything--besides maybe a prayer recited backwards...

Or Better Yet

Here's how it needs to be done. Oil tanker sends distress call, takes evasive actions insofar as it is capable. (Or better yet, armed men aboard oil tanker defend by fire.) [More]

That's what I'm talkin' about.

Treason in Calhoun County

Calhoun County Commission

Agenda Item 12.A. (5) for 2/5/09

WHEREAS, present levels of gun violence in the United States are far higher than in nations which regulate gun purchases more stringently,

NOW, THEREFORE, the Calhoun County Board of Commissioners support:

(1) The renewal of the ban on sale or purchase of assault weapons (making the ban permanent); and

(2) The enactment of laws at all levels of government to make it harder for those with diminished mental capacity or criminal intent firearms either legally or illegally. [sic]

I don't have a link to refer you to--I got this via email.

The meeting is tonight, 7:00 p.m. at the County Building at 315 West Green Street in Marshall, MI in the County Commissioners Chambers on the third floor.

Most of us don't live near there and probably can't make it.

Still, if you'd like to tell these august representatives what you think of their bright idea...

Ordinarily, I'd advise letting them have it, but I don't want to complicate the task facing those who plan on attending and speaking, so I'll use their words and only say "Make sure you are heard loud and clear!"

For those of you who do live nearby, Joel Fulton of the Southside Sportman Club will be addressing the board, and could use all the "warm bodies" he can get:

It is imperative that we be in attendance on Thursday at 7:00 p.m. with a strong show of force to demonstrate that we are adamantly opposed to this resolution and that the adoption of this resolution will have a severe negative impact on the re-election of anyone who votes for it. Now is the time to stand up and I ask you to stand with me on Thursday night to protect all of our rights!

Oklahoma Risking Children's Lives!!!

Oklahoma's gun laws are among the weakest in the nation, risking the lives of children and fueling the illegal gun market, according to a national survey released Wednesday. [More]

The Bradys said it. I believe it. That settles it.

Just kidding. They're a bunch of damned liars. I'm sure I could deconstruct this the same way I just did for what they said about Vermont.

That no "Authorized Journalists" call them on their BS just shows what a bunch of subversives and incompetents most of our "government watchdogs" are, too.

Which is one of the reasons I always get on the case of WoG regulars to spread the word on the Gun Rights Examiner columns.

We're the Only Ones Camera Shy Enough

...ten years in jail for photographing a policeman... [More]

Now why would you lot want to do that--unless you're on the side of the terrorists...?

This could also have been titled "Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise" or "When 'Authorized Journalists' and 'Only Ones' Collide."

Think either the propagandists or the subjects might rethink their comfort levels with the state having a monopoly of force?

A Failing Grade

What amazes me is how often we keep coming back and exposing these Brady shills for what they are, and that they still retain a shred of credibility with anyone. I guess it's tough to argue with someone's religion. [More]

Apparently, the failures at the Brady Campaign won't be satisfied until Vermont's "gunmurder" rate works its way up to Chicago levels.

You have to admit, that would suit their purposes more than the way things are now.

Here's today's Gun Rights Examiner column. Hey, I hate to sound like a broken record, but the visitation stats are slipping--right now I'm in the top 5 for politics (barely), but not on the radar for all national categories. If you are a regular reader, I have to assume you get value from it. If so, would you please take a moment to share the link, maybe post it on a forum...? Or would it be easier to beg for donations so I can have an advertising budget?

I hate to harp, but if I don't, guess what will happen? And based on results, the harping has helped make this category grow and expand:

Whereas the conduct of the legislature of Great Britain for many years past has been so oppressive on the people of America that of late years they have plainly declared and asserted a right to raise taxes upon the people of America, and to make laws to bind them in all cases whatsoever, without their consent; which conduct, being repugnant to the common rights of mankind, hath obliged the Americans, as freemen, to oppose such oppressive measures, and to assert the rights and privileges they are entitled to by the laws of nature and reason...

State of the States

Washington reminds itself about the 10th Amendment.

New Hampshire reminds itself about Jeffersonian principles of states' rights.

OK, Let's Say He Was Wrong

Robert Ollie Sr. said Tuesday he called 911 when he heard the fight begin between his son and four other men, but he said he received a busy signal that Sunday night. [More]

Let's say he was mistaken and misdialed the number.

Or let's say his call had gotten through.

Does anyone seriously believe it would have made a damn bit of difference?

Via WarOnGuns Correspondent GK, who tells me:

This happened pretty near me, and there was an armed robbery across the street this last week and a sexual assault about 1/8th of a mile away...

[W]hile I was carrying my .30-06 and .45 from the car up to my room I had an interesting run in with someone. I usually check to see if someone is in the hallway before I start loading or unloading guns (from the car), as I don't want anyone to know that I have them (until they have entered my apartment without permission). I checked, and then proceeded to take them from my car to my room. A girl opened her door, said simply "oh my God" and slammed the door closed...and then dead-bolted and chained the door. I guess I'm just used to back at home, where if you had a gun people wanted to know what make/model/caliber it is or how the hunting was.

Welcome to Camp Alcee

To direct the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish national emergency centers on military installations. [More]

Alcee, of course, is against you having guns. Because you're racist.

So it's a good thing they'll make sure you're disarmed before they take you pris... uh... let you in.

I SEE You...

It could also raise privacy concerns, but Google is doing its best to avoid a backlash by requiring each user to manually turn on the tracking software and making it easy to turn off or limit access to the service.

Google also is promising not to retain any information about its users' movements. Only the last location picked up by the tracking service will be stored on Google's computers, Lee said. [More]

Yeah, but if Homeland Security decides we need to just leave it on and record everybody everywhere, well, if you're not doing anything wrong, what have you got to hide?

Any doubts how many of the cud-chewers would go right along with this? Still, it could also be used to provide an alibi...

But it'll be a moot point anyway, as soon as we all get those Tommy Thompson implants.

We're the Only Ones Safely Storing Enough

A gun used to kill a woman last month on the Far West Side belonged to a Columbus police sergeant, and investigators are trying to figure out how the murder suspect got it.

Sgt. Douglas Williams, a 31-year police veteran who works in the Strategic Response Bureau, has told homicide investigators that he didn't realize the gun was missing until detectives asked him about it. [More]

See, this is why we should have never stopped suing gun manufacturers, and why we need registration, ammunition accountability, no gun show loophole... And if this can happen to a trained "Only One," why just imagine how dangerous it is trusting you and me with such a dangerous instrument of death.

Sheila Dixon's Prestidigitation

What a brilliant illusion. Surrounded by police, she creates a solid-looking mirage of standing on the side of law and order. And by centering her act on the emotionally charged issue of guns in the community, she keeps the audience's rapt attention focused right where she wants it--and away from where she does not. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column explains the secrets behind an illusion performed by a Mayor Against (Your) Guns.

See Obama in His Followers..

You can help build our gallery of faces from people who see a part of President Barack Obama in themselves. [More]

OFF on Holder

This man will now be in charge of prosecuting gun owners. [More]

Yep.

A bit of apologia for NRA's transparent manipulation on this is that the time to oppose Holder was in November.

Cute. I imagine some of the dimmer followers actually have fallen for that.

The time to oppose attacks on our rights is before during and after. Can you imagine anyone expecting credibility if you substituted an issue besides gun rights? The time to oppose a pro-slavery AG was in November?

Good grief.

If we're going to be consistent, I'd expect to see that same nonsense repeated when the "assault weapon" ban gets put on the front burner.

Hey, if you didn't want it, you should have voted for McCain. You know, the guy who voted for Holder...

Communitarianism

Norfolk County League of Sportsmen's Clubs links us to Paul Helmke's latest tyranny apologia. [More]

Helmke's piece is here, and guess what: He presents his position as "pragmatism" and he links to my Examiner piece when he writes "inflamed."

I'll take the PR, thanks, but if it's anything like last time, I doubt I'll see much of a boost. Maybe we should start calling it an Instalimp or something...?

He of course has it exactly wrong. The gun issue did divide voters. That's why the Stupid Party lost. What it didn't inspire us to do is unite with the RINOs.

These mutts scream about Mary McFate when the entire GOP leadership has been coopted by frickin' "moderate" moles like themselves--if their intent was to be subversive Fifth Columnists, drive away the core constituency and render the Republicans toothless they could not have done a better job.

Paul, you'll recall, made a career representing himself as a republican. As did Sarah and Jim Brady.

We're the Only Ones Cheaper than Dirt Enough

Ammo 9mm Federal 124 Grain +P+ Hydra Shok, JHP 50 Round Box Law Enforcement Sales Only [More]

And what virtues do "Only Ones" possess that make it more desirable for them to have this ammunition instead of, say, you and me?

Let's let reviewer 5pointbadge explain--he does it so much better than I ever could:


And who among us doesn't want "a Veteran Police Officer in the boonies" shooting "melon eaters"...?

Say, you don't think that's code for anything, do you, or that the fact that he's so "veteran" means he's been deploying with this attitude for years...? Still, it's refreshing to hear him admit they "attemp[t]to use deadly force" rather than shooting to stop an attack, and that he equates this to "ensur[ing] that Justice is carried out," especially with a "bleeding heart DA" mucking up the punishment.

Well, at least we know why guys like 5pb get the Hydra Shoks and we don't. They must figure if they're the ones being vigilante...uh..."vigilent" [sic], it's cheaper than dirt-napping in some melon patch.
