"[CCRKBA] today criticized Milwaukee, WI Police Chief Ed Flynn for his open defiance of the State Attorney General's office in a controversy over open carry of firearms."
"Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen has stated that it is legal in Wisconsin for citizens to carry guns openly in a peaceful manner. However, Chief Flynn is ordering his officers to 'take down' citizens, 'put them on the ground' and disarm them, and 'then decide whether you have a right to carry it.'"
"The situation should alarm all Wisconsin citizens, whether they own guns or not, said CCRKBA Legislative Director Joe Waldron, because it places police officers and private citizens in a deliberately confrontational position. ..." ... |

"This week, there is a lot of coverage about why liberals are so angry. I've monitored this since the sixties, and how it relates to gun control and to the overall independence of the people from our servants."
"Some of the discussions of liberal anger center around liberal Narcissism, and link liberal emotions and reactions to the precarious position which they perceive in their current political power. Uncertainty and stress can provoke short tempers, but this is not anger. And what's behind the Narcissism?"

"The gun grabbers are counting on most gun owners being unaware that a threat even exists. And they're also counting on us being too apathetic or cynical to do anything about it even if we find out."
"And here's something important to remember--while the Obama administration will exploit this, we can't forget it was his predecessor, George W. Bush, who 'moved to make the directorate 75 percent self-funding. In one fell stroke, he gave the agency the power to set its own budget, and levy its own taxes.'" |

"Amidst the jubilation among freedom lovers following the U.S. Supreme Court�s decision last year in District of Columbia v. Heller, which held that the Second Amendment creates[sic] an individual right to keep and bear arms, many overlooked a possible huge exception: whether the amendment restricts only national laws (including ordinances passed by the District of Columbia), and not state laws. If so, the celebration was premature."
"Earlier this year, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit upheld a New York law on the grounds that the Second Amendment only limits national restrictions. That decision rested on older U.S. Supreme Court opinions of questionable vitality�but they were never overruled." ... |

"While people talk guns and restrictions under the Obama administration, the specifics aren�t discussed at times. The issue of hunting is one of them. Hunters want their rights protected, but do they need assault rifles?"
"Assault rifles are defined by authoritative websites as the primary defensive weapons of modern armies. That makes sense certainly. Still keeping them without rules or restrictions remains an issue for gun rights advocates." ...

TO REMEMBER |
| You are bound to meet misfortune if you are unarmed because, among other reasons, people despise you....There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed. In the latter case, there will be suspicion on the one hand and contempt on the other, making cooperation impossible. � Niccolo Machiavelli in "The Prince." |
