"The NRA's decision to file Seegars vs Ashcroft was clearly influenced by Parker vs DC. The timing (Seegars was filed shortly after Parker), combined with the NRA's infamous reluctance to defend the 2nd Amendment in court, is sufficient to imply a causal link and perhaps even some panic on the part of the NRA. They didn't want to lose, but if someone won, they had to be in on the win to keep their credibility." ... |

"Gun-control advocates lost ground in the 2004 elections, ending any shot that Congress will renew a federal ban on assault weapons in the next two years." ...
"House Republican leaders refused to bring the issue to a floor vote and proponents garnered only a third of the 218 signatures needed to force the issue."
"The Senate voted 52-47 in favor of a 10-year extension of the ban, as an amendment offered to another bill."
"The Senate's pro-ban majority, however, has turned."
"Seven of nine newly elected members to the Senate oppose the ban, and another would only support a more narrowly defined ban. They replace senators who voted six to three in favor of the ban." ... |

"The ISRA is commending the Illinois General Assembly for overriding Governor Blagojevich's veto of an important homeowner protection bill. By a nearly 3:1 margin, the Illinois House voted Tuesday to override Blagojevich's veto of SB2165."
"Passed by wide margins in both chambers earlier this year, SB2165 is designed to protect homeowners from prosecution under local gun control laws should they use a firearm to protect their homes and families from intruders. Bowing to pressure from Chicago gun control groups, Blagojevich vetoed the bill this past summer."
"Last week, the Illinois Senate voted to override the veto as well." ... |

"But the man and woman, wearing dark blue uniforms with Tempe Police Department patches, were impersonating officers when they asked to search the home Oct 30."
"It's just one of four recent police impersonation cases in the Valley where people are suiting up with uniforms, equipment and cars that mirror the real thing. Phony officers have misused the public's trust to inappropriately touch a driver, rob residents, and in one case steal from other criminals." ... |

"A male Pine Bush High School student who brought a BB gun to school yesterday forced the lock down of the school and a search by police and school officials."
"Other students tipped off school administrators about 1:45 p.m. yesterday and by the time they conducted their search, the student went home."
"Crawford Town Police Chief Daniel McCann said they did have a positive identification on the youth and wound up talking to him and his parents at their home."
"McCann has a message for all students. 'School is not a place for a BB gun or any type of weapon, especially in today�s day and age and climate,' he said. ..." [emphasis added] ...

"After a nonjury trial Tuesday, Chief 60th District Judge Andrew J. Wierengo III found Sheriff's Deputy Ivan James Morris, 37, of 6389 Evanston guilty as charged of assault and battery/domestic violence, first offense. Wierengo ordered a domestic violence assessment and scheduled sentencing for Dec. 28. The maximum possible sentence is 93 days in jail."
"The case stemmed from a June 28 incident between the off-duty Morris and his 39-year-old ex-girlfriend during Muskegon Summer Celebration in the crowded Mike's Bar, 555 W. Western. Witness testimony conflicted at Morris' trial, but by all accounts an angry confrontation between the two ended with Morris pushing or throwing the woman to the floor of the bar." ... |

"Ohioans For Concealed Carry has learned that the Ohio Supreme Court, on a 6-1 vote with Justice Pfeifer dissenting, has issued an alternative writ of mandamus, declining Franklin Co. Sheriff Jim Karnes' request to have a lawsuit against him thrown out."
"The lawsuit, filed on April 9 by Josephine Lee, centers around Josephine's application with Sheriff Karnes for a Temporary Emergency License to carry a concealed handgun, as well as her standard application for a concealed handgun license. Karnes had argued that the court should dismiss the case."
"After learning of the court's decision Wednesday, attorney Ken Hanson told OFCC, 'I haven't received the Order yet, but an alternative writ usually means [Sheriff Karnes] is to show cause why he should not be ordered to do perform his duty under the law, and sets the briefing schedule for both sides.'" ... |

"Taught them to live simply, close to the land, while they hunted. He'd have liked their tarp shelter here on the river. He'd have liked everything about the place on this first Sunday in Minnesota's firearms deer season, the sourdough biscuits baking on the woodstove, the buffalo-plaid shirts hanging from rafters, the Winchester .30-30s leaning in the corner. He'd have liked the butterscotch glow of the three lanterns, the plank bunks along the walls, the floor tiled with discs cut from popple trunks." ... |

"This 'thing' is a nontypical whitetail rack with 27 points going in various directions. The main beams of the antlers are so thick that Privett can't wrap a hand around either one. The inside spread of the antlers is 22 inches. The distance between the two drop-tines -- antler points that droop toward the ground -- is 36 inches, Privett said." ... |

"'The bill was unnecessary and opportunistic. The gun advocates took advantage of a horrible situation in Wilmette to try to change the structure of local gun laws and pre-empt home rule,' Harmon said Friday. The measure was introduced following a December shooting in Wilmette when a homeowner wounded a burglar. The homeowner was not charged in the incident but faces a fine and loss of the weapon under the ordinance, which he is fighting." ... |
