... "Hillary Clinton, of course, is perceived as a big champion of 'common sense gun safety laws,' if by that you mean edicts to eviscerate the Second Amendment, and urges 'It�s time to get tough on violence against women.'"
"Presumably, violence against men is OK, but lest charges of sexism be unfairly leveled, Ms. Rodham is not completely one-sided. As long as the guy administering the beat-down is her hubby and the target of his abuse is someone who can be dismissed as just another in a long line of bimbo eruptions, Hillary doesn't have all that much to say on the subject." ... |

"It seems a definitional change has taken place somewhere recently. Apparently scofflaw local governments are now the 'little guys' and law-abiding citizens who just want their local governments to obey state laws are the 'big bullies.' At least that�s the way Susan Winston sees things at HuffPo with her piece 'David Vs. Goliath, or Do You Really Want Someone Totin� a Gun in Your Park?' She�s talking about Pennsylvania�s over 40-year-old preemption law which, after being more and more blatantly ignored by cities and municipalities across the commonwealth was finally given teeth in this past legislative section . . ." ... |

"Should an absolute, end-of-the-world-type disaster occur or should the government simply try to outlaw firearms, many people are fearful that the local or federal law enforcement officers will start knocking on doors and taking away guns and ammunition. Frankly, I don�t believe that�s going to happen, but that doesn�t make the fear of it any less real or warranted to others."
"In recent times a growing tide of fear and skepticism has come about regarding the federal government (and, in some cases, the local government) taking away more rights�inalienable and natural rights necessary to preserve life and liberty. No doubt, those rights have been slowly trampled upon in my lifetime." ... |

The Senate Inquiry entitled 'The ability of Australian law enforcement authorities to eliminate gun-related violence in the community' is set to deliver its findings this week after several weeks of hearings. Initially launched by the Australian Greens, Australia�s left wing socialist party who have previously stated they wish to ban handguns for civilians, the inquiry is tasked to look at several facets of alleged increases in firearms violence in Australia . . ." ... |

"The AK-47 is one of the most popular firearms ever made. Millions of copies of the firearm have been used in nearly every single conflict worldwide since the gun was first produced, and it even appears on the national flag of at least one country. Its reliability is unquestioned, its effectiveness well acknowledged, and its ease of use is without equal. But SIG SAUER thought they could do better � produce a modern AK-47 for the modern world. The result: the SIG SAUER 556xi Russian." ... |

"Plastic bullets? No � they�re not plastic, but apparently that�s what more than a few people seem to think. Polycase Ammo has introduced some very different new bullets to the market, and suffice it to say my inbox blew up when these were announced. Partly, I assume, because there are some lofty claims made by the manufacturer, but moreso (I think) because I recently published a test of the Lehigh Defense Xtreme Penetrator bullet. For those who are familiar with that particular Philips-head-screwdriver-resembling projectile, these PolyCase ARX bullets bear enough resemblance that people wanted them tested now . . ." ... |

"Young girls want to emulate their mothers, and have done so since the beginning of time. Just as we give them dolls to 'mother,' it seems only natural that we would also give them a toy gun. They're likely already aware that you carry, and simply want to do what mommy does."

"I don�t enjoy fisking Mike 'The Gun Guy' Weisser�s HuffPo anti-gun agitprop. Much. For one thing, the anti-gun gun dealer was civil to me on the phone when I misrepresented some of his writing (quickly and apologetically corrected). For another, he�s such an easy target. And getting easier. With each huffingtonpost.com rant, Mike puts more and more distance between himself and what most people easily identify as reality. Take this assertion in his most recent diatribe New Kansas Gun Law Isn�t Constitutional Carry, It�s Crazy Carry . . ." ... |

"When the Constitution was written we were at war with England, Indians were fighting with the colonists, and the nation was expanding west. Everyone was a member of one militia or another. Everyone carried some type of weapon, either a pistol or a long rifle. Farmers carried their weapons out to their fields with them or to town. Their weapon was their life or their family�s life."

"'Operation Choke Point' is an initiative pushed by [DoJ] and the [FDIC] in which they investigate banks in the United States and the business they do with companies they deem to be at higher risk for fraud and money laundering."

The bill�the 'Support Assault Firearm Elimination and Education of our (SAFER) Streets Act'� would allow for up to $2,000 in tax credits, the Hill reports."
"Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.), the bill�s sponsor, wrote in a statement, 'Assault weapons are not about hunting, or even self-defense. There is no reason on Earth, other than to kill as many people as possible in as short a time as possible, that anyone needs a gun designed for a battlefield.'" ... |

"Senate Bill 941 was passed out of committee today. If you are not familiar with this bill, it calls for increased background checks on private party gun sales, similar to Washington�s I594. No matter how you feel about guns, you should be disgusted at the way the sponsors of this bill have manipulated the legislative process to ram this through. Similar measures have been rejected in the past when put to a vote, so the sponsors have declared it an emergency. By declaring an emergency, it prevents a vote of the people or changes through the initiative process. Oregon already has one of the lowest gun murder rates in the USA ranking at 41st, so I fail to see how this is an emergency." ... |

"Thanks to Gov. Walker and the Republican majority in Madison, we have seen the Second Amendment valued as much as the First in public policy. The Right to Carry policy and the Castle Doctrine are essential pieces for citizens being able to defend themselves, their family and their property from criminal attackers. We have also seen laws passed that help preserve the outdoor tradition that brought so many to Wisconsin in our earliest colonial days. The fact that all of this has come about only under Republican leadership is a key indicator of who truly values the Constitution from beginning to end." ... |
