“Members of the National Coalition to Stop the Gun Ban demand that Congress refuse to use lawful gun owners as political scapegoats and instead reduce school violence by defeating any attempt to pass gun control including, but not limited to, banning semi-automatic firearms or magazines, or requiring private gun transfers to be registered through the National Instant Check System; and repealing the Gun Free School Zones Act of 1996,” the letter states. [More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report spotlights a coalition standing fast against compromise, and notes a conspicuous absence.

Coalition sends open letter opposing gun ban to Congress
Magazine Ban 2013?
I just got sent the link to this video. [Watch]
What is the bill number? THOMAS is not listing anything sponsored by DeGette.
I see other news sources are reporting on this, so I'm going to assume it's legit, but If we're going to spring into action, let's take a moment to check this out first, see who is on board, how big of a threat it really is, and coordinate things a bit, even if time is of the essence.
UPDATE: Here's her announcement.

There Oughtta Be a Law!
FBI: More People Killed with Hammers, Clubs Each Year than Rifles [More]And there are absolutely no controls!!!
A Special Allure
I guess pointing out that there are already laws out the ying-yang saying "criminals" can't have them and can't use them to commit crimes would be a waste of everyone's time...? [Read]
And then there's this:
Interesting choice of "experts." What else doesn't he know? Besides how to tie a half-Windsor knot?
And then there's this:
I'm not a guy who shoots a lot. My handgun scores are very marginal.

"Doing All That We Can"
A "progressive" transplant from Illinois thinks the proper response to Newtown is by banning gun shows in NC. [Read]

Oh, and look who's helping him amplify his voice.

By Way of Comparison
To show the extreme levels of gun buying here's a point to ponder: Total WWII wartime production of the M-1 Garand, the American military's primary battle rifle of the era, was just over 4 million. [More]Huh. Somebody's preparing for something...
Full Court Press in Illinois
Another Democratic state lawmaker, Antonio Munoz, introduced the ban on all assault weapons “designed for war.” [More]Perhaps he could list all the "industrialized country" military groups that use semi-autos as their standard issue arms...?
As an aside, let's take a moment and enjoy some of the "monopoly of violence" advantages enjoyed by Illinois "Only Ones":
UPDATE: Kurt puts things in perspective.
Gannett requested to investigate ethics of anti-gun personnel
Because we're not talking mere opinion here -- their reckless, agenda and in Kaul's case, hate-driven actions could actually endanger lives in the communities you claim you have a "sacred opportunity" to "serve" with "integrity." [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner action decides it's time to invoke my "Any chair in a bar fight" tactic and play with some heads. Feel free to join in.
Friends in High Places
And it's encouraging that he and other GOP leaders consider assessing gun laws to be part of such a task force's mission. [More]But we can relax, because he got an NRA endorsement with this stirring leadership testimonial:
Senator Stewart Greenleaf has enjoyed the benefits of an endorsement before, and we’re not aware of anything from the last cycle that would change that.
I feel better already.
We're the Only Ones Grand Slammed Enough
According to news reports, five plain-clothes detectives were enjoying a meal in the restaurant when a customer noticed one of them carrying a gun. Reports say that all of them were also wearing badges either on their belt or around their neck. A manager approached the group and told them that they would have to take their guns back to their cars, as it was “company policy” to allow only uniformed officers to carry firearms, and the business was clearly posted as such. [More]Outrageous, treating them like other customers! Especially since Denny's is doing a Hobbit movie-themed promotion right now, and they were all wearing their magic talismans. So they got their Moons over My Hammy out of there...

EXCLUSIVE: Feeding Frenzy
Meanwhile, a Gannett newspaper in New York published an interactive map with the addresses of gun permit holders, and another of their papers in Iowa published an editorial calling for repeal of the Second Amendment, declaring the NRA a terrorist organization, making ownership of semi-autos a felony, and killing gun owners who refused to give theirs up. Really. [More]"Feeding Frenzy," a summary of some of the more egregious assaults on gun owners over the past few weeks, is my latest "Rights Watch" column for GUNS Magazine.
We're the Only Ones Talking a Walk on the Wild Side Enough
Because he had not been fired for those similar wrongdoings, Hochhauser determined that Barker couldn't be fired this time either. [More]Everybody had to pay and pay...
The Enemy Within
I have only one thing to add: There should also be ample rewards for those who rat out anyone who is hiding an assault weapon in his/her possession. [More]Yet this person's Facebook page says "Self Employed. 25 years engraving firearms."
WTF?
I see she's also as historically ignorant as Piers Morgan. And not just about technology, but about how kindly resistance units traditionally take to collaborators and snitches.
Love, Indian Style
Women in Delhi are rushing to apply for gun licenses in the aftermath of the gang rape and murder of a 23-year-old medical student who died in hospital last weekend, but most will be left defenseless as a result of India’s strict gun control laws. [More]Sorry, gals. That's the way Rekha and Sanjay love it. So much that they're demanding we import it here.
