‘Voice of the Pope’ backs Obama gun edicts

A Church steeped in history, and one that recognizes beatified martyrs from the Cristero War is well aware that history is still unfolding, that tyranny still exists, that individuals are still persecuted and murdered by their own governments, and will continue to be, and that no nation or people, even ours, can forever count on remaining special and exempt.

"Open Letter to the President Barack Obama"

T.L. Davis has crafted an important message that merits being read and understood by all.  Please read it and share the link with everyone you know.  Please help make it "go viral." [Read and share]

This is powerful stuff.  I can't overstate how important I believe sharing this to be, and gladly add my unequivocal endorsement and alliance with all who share these sentiments.

Gun rights film project releases powerful trailer

I urge readers of this column to see the sidebar video player to take two minutes to watch this intellectually and viscerally-compelling preview of things to come, and then, as Koenig asked his Twitter followers earlier this morning, “Help us take our trailer to the masses.” [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner review notes a trailer that knocks it out of the park.

REESE CASE: ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT

Here's another story I was going to do a GRE piece on, but this week's internet outage kept me from it.

This is the best site to consult anyway--I've dabbled with the "highlights" of the Reese case, if you can call them that, but if you really want a comprehensive understanding of the ordeal this family has been going through, the job done on this fine site has just been outstanding.

It's a pity there never seems to be appropriate recognition for such efforts.  They're just not "Authorized Journalists," you see.

The pros are much too busy to cover stuff like this anyway. Isn't that right, Honey Boo Boo?

Anti-Gunner Illegally Waves BB Gun

I wanted to do a Gun Rights Examiner article on this, as a follow-up to the story about the Connecticut "lawmaker" who wants to make it  illegal to have a gun capable of firing more than a single shot.  But having an internet outage for almost two full days this week backed everything up and forced me to make some concessions and let some stories go unfielded, at least by me.

Connecticut Carry has the story.

And in a David Gregory moment, we once more learn "authorities" don't see anything wrong with the right people breaking the law.

Like Onstar!

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town. [Read]

Duck Season!

Tyrant season! [Watch]

I was all thumbs up on this until the end, when he says the solution is to increase the ATF excise tax to pay for "Only Ones" Praetrorian Guards.  How about we just end the damn "gun free zones" and recognize the right of the people to keep and bear arms?
