Most cars passing through the intersection offered support. As expected, we also received a few 'thumbs down'..."

Henry Schaffer's thorough review of Josh Sugarman's book, 'National Rifle Association: Money, Firepower, and Fear'.

Article from the The Hartford Courant regarding Mother's Day rallys put on by the Second Amendment Sisters and the MMM. Not much to note about the "Gun Rights" portion of the article... mostly the same bad information from the "Gun Control" side.

Time to change strategies by Sheriff Bill Masters Submitted by: Angel Shamaya	There are no comments on this story Post Comments \| Read Comments
"Roni Bowers and her baby Charity were killed not by drug dealing gangs or criminal thugs, but instead by government agents. They were 'collateral damage' in the war on drugs." "The increasing militarization of the drug war and our local police forces is a dangerous trend." It's nice having a sheriff who'll tell it like it is.

Dangerous Laws Submitted by: Mark Anderson	There are no comments on this story Post Comments \| Read Comments
According to George Washington, "Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." No matter how high-minded a law sounds, its only power comes from the business end of a gun. Are you willing to shoot somebody to enforce your favorite laws?

"Meet dozens of extremists fighting an undeclared war on the federal government, with one of the most deadly weapons on earth on their side."

~MSNBC has deliberately equated freedom-loving patriots with criminals in their pathetic anti-American, anti-gun hackjob of an "investigation". Their title alone proves their socialistic stance, as there is NO ".50 Caliber Militia" hiding out, dangerously awaiting their chance to overthrow the government.

The interview with Angel Shamaya, Executive Director of KeepAndBearArms.com is in "Part Two: A battle in Battle Creek" under "RALLYING BEHIND STEWART".

President Bush, stepping back into the gun-control debate, is renewing his pledge to help communities and states combat gun violence. Bush said during the presidential campaign that he supported closing gun show loopholes. Yes, and we hoped he was lying. Looks like a liberal in elephant pants to me.

Ari Armstrong put together a set of pictures from the Trillion Mom March rally. One of the male "moms" holds a sign saying, "Abolish ALL Hand Guns," and the event takes place beneath a statue of an armed patriot.

If the government abolishes all handguns, how they'll get criminals to comply is a mystery -- as is the question of how they'd get ours. These people are actually quite funny and cute, like little puppies who aren't smart enough not to chew on electrical cords.
