"When propagandizing media made this case out to be something other than what the evidence showed it was, a hoax had been played on the whole country. It was a particularly cruel hoax on the African-American community."
"Look at it this way. Suppose the mass media had � whether through gullibility or complicity � had told a false story of a cancer victim being horribly wronged. Any of us would have been outraged and hurt�but genuine cancer survivors would have been put through more unnecessary pain by the story than anyone else. Basically, that�s what happened here." ... |

"Our nation dodged a hail of bullets, literally and figuratively, a week ago when a young man armed with an AK-47 assault rifle surrendered to police after invading an Atlanta-area school."
"A school clerk, Antoinette Tuff, talked 19-year-old Michael Brandon Hill, who had already fired at police outside the school, into surrendering." ... -------
Submitter's Note: And if she hadn't been able to talk him down it would have been nice if she's been able to shoot him.
Oh, and FYI, according to the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports more people are killed with fists and feet than with "assault weapons". |

"A member of TTAG�s Armed Intelligentsia writes:"
"I live in South Florida, a state that can claim over a million CCW (Concealed Carry Weapons) permit holders. I work at City Hall in a city which shall remain nameless. Let�s just say it�s between Miami and Ft Lauderdale. Our City Manager is one of those people who thinks guns in the hands of civilians is a bad thing; only the military and police could ever handle the stress of carrying a weapon as deadly as a gun and 'I am not putting our citizens or employees at risk by allowing guns in City Hall.' So . . ." ... |

"After then-Congressman Joe Scarborough convinced me to endorse the neocon Bob Dole for President back in 1996, I vowed to myself that I would never vote for 'the lesser of two evils' again. I haven't; and I won't." ...
"Gun Control"
"This is a no compromise, no negotiation-issue with me. I absolutely will not vote for any candidate, regardless of political party, that supports any additional gun control. We already have too many egregiously enslavish gun control laws on the books. If anything, our lawmakers should be expunging gun control laws, not adding new ones." ... |

"To The Reader's Forum:"
"On Sunday morning, August 11, 2013, The Post-Journal printed a letter in their Reader's Forum about Senator Cathy Young. The writer, I'll call Sam, condemned Senator Young on her support to repeal the so-called 'Safe Act.' When I read this letter, I said to myself, this guy must be a Democrat. He sounds just like Obama, Biden, Bloomberg, Cuomo, Schumer, Gillibrand, Feinstein and Pelosi. Why do Democrats hate guns?" ... |

"Michelle Thompson tells a horror story in a lawsuit she has filed in Dauphin County Court more than a year after a heavily-armed state police Special Emergency Response Team raided her Hummelstown-area home."
"The police aren't the heroes of her account."
"They are the villains, destructive ones at that."
"There is no doubt that the SERT team left Thompson's Handshue Drive house in ruins after the May 2012 raid. The physical evidence was there after the team, which was searching for Thompson's estranged husband, Gerald, packed up and left empty-handed."
"At issue in Thompson's lawsuit is the matter of justification." ... |

... "Governor McCrory�s signature on HB 937 is barely dry, and already one of its most important provisions is under attack. The new statute in question (14-269.2) provides for concealed handgun permit-holders to keep handguns in closed containers, within a locked motor vehicle, o n educational grounds. On August 22, the 'The Macon County News' reported that Macon County Schools attorney, John Henning, Jr., has said of the new statute, 'It is just crazy.' He also contends that the statute may be circumvented via policies enacted by the local school board, policies that would allow for 'disciplinary action.'" ... |

"As he states, we can trust Long to come out of the woodworks any time he perceives a threat to our 'Second Amendment rights.'"
"I really don�t have time to dwell in the woodwork or write folksy articles about my past life. I am too busy setting the records straight."
"And no, I don�t have a professor�s certificate on my wall, stating that I am a legend in my own mind. But I have studied the Second Amendment issue and those who would like to infringe on it, for many long years." ... |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
