... "Well, perhaps exhibit 4,769 will do the trick. The Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence (formerly the Legal Community Against Violence), a bunch of anti-gun attorneys who hope to develop the strategy to rape the Second Amendment under the color of law, has actually gone to the trouble of articulating what they claim is Constitutional justification for gun confiscation:""In short, because laws banning dangerous guns and ammunition seek to protect the public rather than to confiscate private property for public use, they are perfectly consistent with the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment." ... |

"Gun-rights advocates would never use the day of a tragedy as a cause for annual celebration but that�s precisely what anti-rights forces in this country are thinking of doing to do at year�s end, we learned at the Gun Rights Policy Conference (GRPC) which wrapped up in Houston late last month."
"Using money from billionaire New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, who is rapidly becoming one of the greatest threats the Bill of Rights faces in America, states nationwide, along with the Obama administration, will hold events staged to use the death of innocent victims in Newtown, Conn., to call for infringements on the Second Amendment." ... |

"It�s every employer�s worst nightmare. An angry employee with a gun takes out his revenge on a boss, coworkers or both."
"Last year, Andrew J. Engeldinger did it when he killed five and injured three after being fired from his job at Accent Signage Systems in Minneapolis. Lawrence Jones did it when he killed two coworkers and wounded two others at a Fresno chicken processing plant. The year before, Rocky T. Christian, did it when he shot and killed his boss at Build Direct Floor, LLC in Apopka, Florida. Let�s bring guns to work!" ...

Submitter's Note: Let's think about these prohibitions for a moment. Work bans will protect us from the group of people who meet all these criteria:
1) Who are cool-headed enough to obey the law and not bring guns to work.
2) Who, are hot-tempered enough that if they had a gun at wirk, they would be willing to commit murder.
3) Who are cool-headed enough that if they go to work unarmed, lose their temper and decide to kill someone and go home to get their gun will, upon arriving home, say to themselves "You know I think I'll just make myself a sandwich instead of going back and shooting up my workplace."

"Press TV has conducted an interview with Dr. Wilmer Leon, professor at Howard University, about mass shooting incidents being increased in the United States and another deadly shooting at a Nevada middle school." ...
"Press TV: The statistics speak for themselves and after Newtown, America said it would never happen again and yet here we are. What do you make of it?"
"Leon: Well what I make of it is, it is just more politics instead of looking at practical, real solutions to solving the problem with guns and mass shootings in the United States."
"And the real problem comes down to access. There needs to be greater access to mental health care and less access to guns." ...

"There is nothing like a school shooting to stifle any and all efforts to address school shootings in America."
"The higher the body count, the stronger the opposition to any discussion of gun reforms."
"We�re told that it�s offensive to even discuss gun control after a fatal shooting. People scream it. You�re accused of being an exploiter. A liberal. You�re playing politics while victims� families grieve. All gun control does is keep guns from 'law abiding citizens' while criminals remain armed � or so we�re told." ... |

"One day after a deadly middle school shooting in Nevada, President Barack Obama 'remains committed' to pushing for stricter gun control laws and will 'keep at it,' ..."
"Police say a 12-year-old boy at Sparks Middle School near Reno, Nev., shot and injured two classmates and killed math teacher Mike Landsberry, a former Marine who served in Afghanistan and who had been trying to talk the shooter out of harming others. The 12-year-old boy also killed himself."
"Carney said Obama is 'heartbroken' over the situation, and reiterated the president�s disappointment over expanded background check legislation failing to pass the Democrat-controlled Senate after the mass slaying at Sandy Hook Elementary ..." ...

Submitter's Note: A law which would have done nothing to prevent this shooting or the Sandy Hook shooting. Nor would it have stopped the VA Tech shootings, nor Aurora, not Columbine, nor Red Lake . . . |

"NRA members and gun owners in Colorado shocked the nation last month when two anti-gun state senators were successfully recalled for the first time in state history. We sent a clear message to politicians at every level of government that if they take our freedom, we�ll take their jobs."
"Well, most politicians got the message."
"Right on cue, gun-banners like Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz tried to save face by spinning Colorado�s homegrown, pro-freedom uprising as the result of outside influences." ... |

"Councilman Rick Morelli has an idea to raise revenues in Luzerne County: increase the cost of a conceal-and-carry gun permit."
"The politician ... [suggested] the county raise the price from $20 for a five-year permit to $150 for a possible longer term."
"Council must craft a 2014 budget by Dec. 15, and the county manager's proposal includes an 8 percent tax hike and a $2.7 million deficit."
"'Please note I very much support the second amendment where people have the right to keep and bear arms from impingement,' he wrote. 'I also believe that we need tougher gun control laws. Since owning a fire arm (sic) is a privilege, I believe the people who want a permit will pay for it even at a higher rate.'" ... |

"I am writing to clarify the position that Luther Sodat, candidate for Hopewell Sheriff, has on the gun rights granted to American citizens in the Second Amendment. I read a letter to the editor written by someone who supports Sodat's opponent that said that if Luther Sodat were elected he would dismiss our Second Amendment rights and might put all of our rights in jeopardy. This comment was made to upset people, make them angry, and sway them towards voting for the opponent. I will admit that I was misled by the letter until I spoke with Luther Sodat personally about this topic." ... |

"Carlos Reed says he was exercising his Second Amendment rights. But he�s accused of the 'threatening display of a weapon' for walking around Portland carrying an assault rifle, allegedly in a position in which it can be rapidly aimed." ...
"Reed hasn�t disputed that he was out at night with an assault rifle in plain sight � and he has no reason to, because it�s legal in Maine ..."
"The Iraq war veteran and college law enforcement student also has said that he was carrying his rifle pointed at the ground because he�d been taught that that was safe. But police and prosecutors allege that the 'low ready' position of Reed�s rifle would allow him to 'pop that weapon up and target it very rapidly,' ..." ... |
