That Explains It!

More fallout from this.

I'm afraid and I just don't understand the Second Amendment.

Now that's scholarship! Not to mention an endearing introduction that's sure to engage!

One thing: If you trust them, how come you don't trust them?

One other thing: If you do "gladly assist them," do you think you could come first?

Afterthought:  What happened to the "no one wants to take your guns" talking point the antis have been parroting every chance they get?

Choosing Sides

My piece from yesterday continues to validate that the Prozis are furious at having their intent exposed, with all the infiltrator/disruptors and sadist/psychopaths weighing in.

Gosh,Lucifer Upside-Down 666 is against non-government guns.  And he bravely, not to mention originally, albeit anonymously, calls people who disagree inadequately endowed, nuts and cowards.

Maybe I've been wrong about this.

Agency Rule List: Spring 2014

Here are the administration's proposed gun-related regulatory actions for DoJ/ATF. I have not had time to review these, not to see what other agencies/departments are doing along these lines.  I offer this without comment for information purposes only, and with acknowledgement that this is the kind of stuff we need more people keeping an eye and reporting on, because I certainly won't have time without ignoring other priorities of equal or greater importance.

Blaming NRA over killings shows no amount of laws enough for anti-gunners

They’ve not only shown us their end goals, and what a ridiculous lie every one of them who parrots the ubiquitous “No one wants to take your guns” talking point is telling, but they’ve also relieved us of any obligation to respond to them except in kind. [More]

Santa Barbara killer’s family ‘staunchly anti-gun’

Lawyer Alan Shifman, who represents killer Elliot Rodger’s father, director Peter Rodger, “said the family is ‘staunchly against guns’ and supports gun-control laws,” the report revealed. [More]

This evening’s Gun Rights Examiner report looks at what happens when the product of an anti-gun family ignores a host of “gun control” laws in a state rated tops by the citizen disarmament demanders.

Author, Hollywood screenwriter and veteran says he could kill again over guns

"A couple years ago, a gun nut I know was 'playfully' asking me why I didn't get a gun and do some target shooting, which he claimed was 'fun,'" Top Commenter Thomas Cleaver recalled. "I asked him 'If I get a gun, will it be OK to shoot you? Don't worry, I've shot and killed people before, and I'm way past getting upset at seeing you lying on the floor with your brains splattered on the wall. Been there long ago.' [More]

GunCoin

I got notification yesterday I was now being followed on Twitter by The GunCoin Project.

I've been following some of the Bitcoin ups and downs and arguments, albeit not very closely, and can't claim enough knowledge to weigh in on the replacement privacy currency vs. speculative investment debate, but that's not what concerned me. Understand that terms like "peer-to-peer" and "open source software" make my eyes glaze over. You're dealing with a guy who used to code assembly parts lists on 80-column cards and take them to a department called "Keypunch." 

I had  a more basic question, because I figure if I'm going to be SMFFs (social media and you figure out the rest) with these folks, I should make sure they're really on the up-and-up from an RKBA point of view.  So I emailed them:
Hi, I just got your Twitter follow notice and followed back.

I'd like to know more about the people behind your venture, your pro-gun bonafides, etc.

There's not much in your website's "About" section.

Ditto, whois registry doesn't really tell much.

I think it would serve you well to give Second Amendment supporters details, as we see stories like the one about the head of the firm that owns Sportsman Channel and Guns & Ammo magazine being a big Democrat supporter who believes in gun control, and it's pretty natural for people to be leery, and even to wonder if some of the money they spend will end up supporting politicians working against them.

Care to disclose who you are and what your gun rights backgrounds are?
Here's the response:

Thanks for reaching out to us.  I can offer you some more information about us and what we stand for.
My name is [REDACTED] and I am the Guncoin Project Manager.  I am a lifelong Alaskan that has been hunting and shooting all my life.  I believe (as does the team) very strongly in our 2nd Amendment rights.  Honestly, gun control efforts make me sick to my stomach, and that will never change.  We do not currently *support* any political group monetarily.  However, if we were to donate funds or support in any way for a group, it would definitely be Republican.  In fact, we would be quite interested in mutual support options.  Now, do not get me wrong, I am not *against* the Democratic party.  I agree with both sides on a lot of issues...  BUT, our 2nd Amendment rights trump other issues for me and the only logical choice if I had to pick to support is Republican.
The Guncoin Project really came about after a lot of dealings with Payment Processors when trying to sell firearms and firearms related goods.  As you may know, it is just a nightmare dealing with these companies and trying to get payment processing set up for a firearms related business.  That real need for easy transactions, coupled with the opportunity to support gun rights in a public way, led us to create Guncoin.
We have not been very public about our identities because we have already received a slough of threats and anti-gun nonsense.  We have families just like everyone else and do not need that kind of stress to deal with.  We are just regular guys with regular lives trying to fill a niche with Guncoin.
I hope I have provided the information you were wanting.
Thank You,
- Guncoin Support

He said I could repro. his email in total. Because of that last bit, I'm not including  a name. That said, it seems to me they're at least sincere about the part that concerned me.  If you're interested in what they offer and want to find out more on your own, you now have a link.

Ohio's DeWine asked to ensure open carry training after shooting jokes by police
