If this passes, it will only be a matter of time before it's challenged on cultural discrimination grounds, because all such laws, including existing felonies, would make anyone following the example of their Prophet and the Mother of Believers a prohibited person.

Obama solicits ‘gun violence’ stories
To that end, I’m encouraging Gun Rights Examiner readers to join in the dialog and share your stories of gun defense uses/"gun violence" prevention, or alternatively, to share stories of criminal “gun violence” perpetrated by the “Only Ones” the gun-banners think should be armed, the police and agents of government. [More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner offering encourages you to engage in some Five-Minute Activism to expose an agenda, set the record straight, and basically poke the commie bedwetters in the eye. Will you help?

Patriot veteran and retired Chicago cop tells of freer, safer time
"Our HIGH SCHOOL armory had 50 of these, two Browning Automatic Rifles, five M1 carbines, two .45 cal. semi auto M1911A1 pistols, and one M3 submachine gun,” he continued. “Similar armories were present at even INNER CITY High Schools like Lindbloom, Marshall, Farragutt and most every school that had a junior ROTC, and there was NEVER a school shooting or any one harmed by the presence of these lethal military weapons." [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner trip down Memory Lane reminds us that the way things are and the way things were can give us clues to the way things ought to be.

A Penetrating Argument
The Party That Supports Rape [Read]What's the big deal? Beckel just agrees with Whoopi.
And with CSGV, who, despite using "white" as a racist pejorative, correctly reminds me I don't speak for all women.
True that, and unlike them, I've never pretended to. Not sharing their affinity for collectivism. my argument is simply that the choice morally belongs to individuals, regardless of sex, melanin levels, or anything else they want to throw out there to help divert attention from the inarguable fact that they would rather see women raped and killed than armed.

Problematic?
We do not halt sales to individual officers even in problematic states [More]I have no idea how cop purchases work and if they vary from state-to-state. Do they go directly to the manufacturer after getting department clearance? If they go through FFLs, it would seem simply a matter of not shipping any verboten items to any dealer in that state.

Speaking of Keeping Kids Safe
How would one commit a misdemeanor sex offense against a child? [Read]
I'm thinking maybe if they just attempt something? That still seems pretty damned heinous.
Or maybe teenagers skirting around the age of consent? Kids playing doctor or taking and forwarding stupid pictures?
I'm trying to wrap my head around what is a clear-cut crime and what isn't, and if the former, I'm just not seeing anything less than a felony. If somebody diddles a kid, sorry, they're broke beyond fixing. They can't be trusted without a custodian.
You realize, of course, a few years from now, manipulated public opinion will label me as an intolerant hater and a pedophiliaphobe or some such for believing this way... "top men" are working on that as we speak.

What Whalen Thinks
Whalen thinks assault rifles should be abandoned, restricted to military and law-enforcement personnel, but beyond that he wants to maintain his rights to buy and keep guns. [More]Sorry, Whalen, but some don't go in for "animal murder" and see no reason why you should be allowed to own high-powered sniper weapons of mass destruction designed only for killing that go through police body armor and could shoot down a plane.
Find another sport.
All of these attacks against your preferences have already been used and will only increase. Besides which, as evidenced by your profound ignorance, a major part of the activism has come from evil black rifle owners and those who support all rights of gun owners, including yours.

And I do hereby assure them that I am ready to concur with them in effectual measures for suppressing the remains of rebellion in this province, and for the re-establishment of good order and constitutional government.

CSGV Adds Anti-White Racism to Misogyny

How about if we do a thorough audit on all the money, weapons, equipment and other tangible items sent to the Mexican government and its surrogates, and get a thorough accounting of exactly where everything is ending up?
