[B]oys' sagging educational performance is one of the main reasons for the increasing disappearance of male students from our college campuses. However, there is another, unacknowledged reason why some males don't go to college-rampant anti-male feminism has made college campuses a place where many males feel unwanted and unwelcome. To use a feminist term, our universities have become "hostile environments" for young men. |

"Straight shooters they're not. But then, they never aimed to be."
"For seven years, bureaucrats in Canada's justice ministry under Allan Rock, Anne McLellan and now Martin Cauchon have lowballed, denied, hidden and shrugged off the ever-rising cost of setting up a national firearms registry."
"In 1995 Rock told Canadians it would cost $2 million to register owners and guns. Not even close. Cauchon now guesses $860 million, maybe more."
"This is not a 'cost overrun.' It's a scandal that strikes at Ottawa's credibility. Heads should roll." ... |

While this is a clear example of a common-sense judge exercising common-sense judgement it also speaks to the character of our fine Mayor. This is the same mayor who, only 8 days ago, vetoed an idiot councilman's bill to require gun registration in the city of Wilmington. Councilman Norman Oliver, an accessory to a felony, is trying to solve the city's gun violence problem by further infringing responsible gun owners with a ridiculous scheme to make it look like he's really trying.
Mayor James M. Baker can be reached at: [email protected].

... "If the ACLU can join with conservatives to preserve the Bill of Rights, why can't the National Rifle Association do the same, when it comes to homeland spying? The NRA has remained strangely - one might say even eerily - quiet about the Homeland Security Act."
"Surely every gun owner in America realizes that a full-blown surveillance system, in which every American's life is monitored by the Pentagon in a war on terrorism, can red-flag gun owners with a very big flag, indeed. And such a system would be tantamout to universal gun registration." ... |

"The federal appeals court in San Francisco yesterday unanimously upheld most aspects of a California law restricting sales and ownership of the semiautomatic firearms sometimes called assault weapons. It rejected a challenge to the law based on recent interpretations of the Second Amendment by a federal appeals court in New Orleans and by the Justice Department."
"The law, enacted in 1989 and broadened in 1999, was challenged by people who owned or wanted to buy such firearms."
"The decision is significant, legal experts said, not for its outcome, which was largely required by earlier decisions of the court, but for its extended rebuttal of more recent interpretations of the Second Amendment. The ruling was issued by the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit." ...
"The panel struck down as irrational a provision of the law that allowed retired law enforcement officers to retain assault weapons." ... |

"The jury is still out on why suicide rates are higher in parts of the US where more households own guns, as new research indicates the link cannot be explained by the prevalence of mental health problems in these areas.

While these pontificators are at it, perhaps they can explain why there are countries with low gun ownership rates but much higher suicide rates -- and why there are countries with higher gun ownership rates but much lower suicide rates. |

PEORIA, ILLINOIS -- "Just because you can legally advertise the sale of handguns and rifles in a newspaper doesn't mean you should, a national group told the Journal Star Wednesday."
"Newspaper classified ads are being used to circumvent federal laws requiring background checks on individuals purchasing guns, said John Johnson, the head of the National Campaign to Close the Newspaper Loophole."
"The 'loophole' is the fact that people can sell firearms without a license and people can buy the weapons without a background check, just as they can at gun shows, estate sales and flea markets, Johnson's organization maintains." ...

LA MESA � A felon suspected of threatening to shoot his ex-boss proceeded to attack a patrolman who approached him on an East County street today, scuffling with him until a pair of citizens came to the officer's aid.
Shortly before 11:30 a.m., dispatchers got a 911 call about a gunman threatening someone in a home in the 4400 block of Rosebud Lane in La Mesa, police said.
A few minutes later, Officer Bob Lowry saw a pedestrian matching the assailant's description in the 7500 block of University Avenue, stopped him and was "immediately threatened," LMPD public affairs Lt. Raul Garcia said.
The man � later identified as 34-year-old Benjamin Reyes of La Mesa � allegedly announced he was carrying a concealed pistol and would shoot the patrolman.
"As Reyes reached into his pocket and kept his hand concealed from view, Officer Lowry drew his service weapon and ... attempted to talk Reyes into surrendering peacefully," Garcia said. "Reyes began to comply with the officer's directions, then ran at the officer."
As the men grappled, two passers-by ran up and helped wrestle Reyes into submission. Lowry arrested him and found a loaded .22-caliber handgun in his pocket, along with extra ammunition, according to police.
"It was later discovered that Reyes is a convicted felon with a history of violence and is not allowed to possess a gun," the lieutenant said.
The civilians' assistance "was significant and probably prevented death or serious injury" to Lowry as well as the suspect, he added. |

Govts share cost of handgun buyback
State and territory leaders have reached an agreement with the Prime Minister on tougher gun laws across Australia.
All governments have endorsed the resolution including limits on the calibre and barrel length of handguns.
A ban on handguns will come into force from June 30 next year.
The leaders have also resolved the major sticking point, with a buyback scheme to be jointly funded by the two tiers of government.
Prime Minister John Howard said: "There will be a buyback, there will be an amnesty of both legal and illegal guns.
"The buyback will be funded initially from the $15 million which was left over from the buyback monies from the post-Port-Arthur buyback.
"The rest, the Commonwealth will meet two-thirds and the states one-third."

"Hayhoe is a hoplophobic liberal who is hellbent on treating an inanimate object, a firearm made of steel, wood, rubber and plastic, as a living, breathing, satanic creature, just like that Stephen King novel which attributed an evil soul to an automobile. Good reading, perhaps, but pure fantasy."
"Satanizing one inanimate object, a firearm, while ignoring the inherent potential dangers of every other man- made object, such as automobiles (accidental auto fatalities outnumber accidental firearm fatalities by about 40,000 to 1) or knives/cutting instruments (the No. 1 weapon of choice in Florida in the crime of aggravated assault, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, for 2001) is irrational." ... |
