This may or may not be RKBA related, but it is mysterious...

On May 17, about 24 agents raided Greenville Tube Corp., a metal tube manufacturer in Clarksville, AR. Witnesses reported seeing some agents wearing FBI and others with NASA identification.

Vicki Lyons, executive director of the Clarksville-Johnson County Chamber of Commerce, said FBI agents took computers and files from the business, which employs about 225 people. She said the company provides some products to a distributor that sells to NASA.

And what says NASA?

"The inspector general's office has told us to refer all questions to the U.S. attorney. Even if we knew anything, we couldn't talk, but we don't know anything." --NASA spokesman Bob Jacobs.

"Some aspects of what passes for liberalism today could better be described as infantilism. Among the most obvious are pacifism and absolutist gun control. ... The worst effect is the regression of citizens from self-sufficient adults into dependent, overgrown children who rely on a parentified government to take care of them, make important decisions for them, and defend their families." --Dr. David Stolinsky, M.D.

"After five convenience store heists in 17 days by an unknown masked bandit, city police offered robbery prevention training Wednesday. But only one person showed up, and he was just a concerned citizen."

~~How about giving them the ability to carry concealed weapons?

KABA NOTE: The article says that "People reached at the five stores robbed declined to comment for this story or referred calls to their corporate owners, who couldn't be reached for comment." -- Were they just lazy? Or were they prevented from attending by the corporate owners?

"The speaker of the Maryland House of Delegates is calling for a black bear hunting season amid increasing human-bear encounters in the western part of the state."

"I have indicated in the past that we have lost freedoms in this country of ours. It started with the first unconstitutional attack on the second amendment in 1936 with the machine gun act. One city, one county, one state, and one nation we are losing our rights and freedoms because stupid people get elected to office and violate their oath of office. I believe that anyone who violates that oath should be tried for treason and hanged in public when found guilty." --Sheriff Mike

"The symposium is being hosted by the University of Pittsburgh's Center for Injury Research and Control (CIRCL) and will cover topics on firearm prevention, child abuse, domestic violence, workplace violence and traumatic brain injury (TBI)."

KABA NOTE: Notice how they don't make any pretenses of saying "firearm INJURY prevention".

"'The statistics on violence in the United States are staggering,' said Dr. Marion. According to a 1999 National Crime Victimization Survey conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice, 562,870 victims of serious violent crimes (rape, sexual assault, robbery and aggravated assault) stated that they faced an offender with a firearm."

KABA NOTE: Notice how they don't mention the approximate 2,500,000 potential victims that defended themselves with one, often without having to fire a shot.
