¿Por qué? [Read]

Joe Gomez, Authorized Journalist

"I think clearly over 70 percent of the guns used by Mexican Drug Cartel Members are from the U.S." [More]
Leave it to a highly trained professional to distill the "Project Gunwalker" story down to its government-supporting essence and show us mere "bloggers" how it should be done.

Aaron Peña. What a tool-user.

I see BIG 105.9 used Oleg Volk's photo without credit. Must be some sort of canons of journalism thing I just wouldn't understand...

All I can do is give these dopes the manual.  I can't make them read it.

We're the Only Ones Unfamiliar Enough

Some Atlanta police officers and ranking members of the force seem to be unfamiliar with law and constitutional protections that limit what they can do during a raid...[More]
I want to show you something. It's my shocked face.

Lessons Learned

U.S. could learn from other nation’s gun policies [More]

I agree.

Your move, Michael Kryzanek of the Center for International Engagement.

Let's "engage."

Real Hunters Get the Lead Out?

And real Fudds give aid and comfort to the enemy? [Read]

Somebody sic PETA on this collaborator.

CUM ULLA SELLA 'n all...

A Matter of Resolve

From "Resolutions Submitted to the Idaho Republican Party State Central Committee":
Resolution 2011-23
Nullification of Federal Gun Control Act 1968 Resolution

Submitted by Mark Patterson, Chairman District 15, Lucas Baumbach, Chairman District 17

Whereas, the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution is the law of the land for firearms and firearm ownership, directly contrary to “gun control” law.

Whereas, the Gun Control Act of 1968 created a burdensome regulating agency, the ATF, the mandate of which, is to control guns, especially by mandating registration of firearms by manufacturers,

Whereas, the NAZI Weapons Laws of 1938 are very similar in scope and aim to the U. S. Gun Control Act of 1968 (Aaron Zelman’s Gun Control: Gateway to Tyranny)

Therefore be it resolved, that the Idaho Republican Party supports the primary and residual effects of the Gun Control Act of 1968 be nullified by the legislature and executive of the State of Idaho.

Be it further resolved, that the Idaho Republican Party agrees the Gun Control Act of 1968 is clearly superseded by both the Idaho Constitution’s prohibition of firearm registration and the Federal Constitution’s declaration of the right to bear arms.

Be it further resolved, that the Idaho Republican Party supports Idaho condemnation of the policies that enabled the murders of millions of Jews, Gypsies, religious and political dissidents by removing their ability to defend themselves.
Here's the Resolutions Committee.

I guess now, according to the rules,  the State Chairman will read it to the body, move for its adoption and preside over debate? There's a lot of education potential here. Be nice to see this pass and other states follow suit.

We're the Only Ones Social Networking Enough

Yup, good thing they're highly trained professionals. [Read]

No telling what irresponsible amateurs like us might do in a similar situation--besides not creating one in the first place.

Hey, anybody need a special bulletin to tell them what you put out there on the Internet can come back and bite you?

Q&A

Is there a cover-up on Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry’s murder? [More]

Sure looks that way.

[Via Doug Rink]

A Serious Vulnerability

The case highlights a serious vulnerability when it comes to keeping guns out of the hands of mentally unstable people and others, not just in California but across the country. [More]
Ergo, we need registration for everyone to enable confiscation.  Except law enforcement is swamped.

Sounds to me like we need more enforcers!

Ah, California. The Golden State, where even their gold standard on "gun control" isn't enough!

It never will be.  And anyone who believes differently is seriously vulnerable.

[Via Ed M]

Shelved?

Has the ATF multi-rifle sale (aka registration) scheme been shelved? [More]
I'd be surprised to see any movement forward on this before a few related concerns get addressed...

The Sounds...

...of Silence [Read]

I have my own ideas on why that might be I'll elaborate on in the near future...

And yes, I know The Onion is a joke site.

[Via Russ S]

We're the Only Ones "Freedom First" Enough

This isn’t just a case of a cop losing his temper over a guy leaning on his car. His bad judgment carried over into an illegal arrest. He then filled out, signed, and filed a falsified a police report to cover up his other mistakes. Were it not for the video, Overcash’s report could very well have resulted in a man getting convicted and sentenced for crimes he didn’t commit. [More]

Sounds like a match made in hea...uh...

UPDATE: "A single issue organization"--now that's funny.

[Via Daniel Almond]

Californians call for tighter gun restrictions in light of Arizona shootings

Of course they do. [Read]

And yeah, I know, not all of them.

But enough to keep these domestic enemies in office.

Reason Fails

I agree. [Read]

So all that's left is to warn you off like we would any other lunatic who won't take "No" for an answer.

Por Favor?

Do what he asks? [Read]

‘Project Gunwalker’ allegations bolstered by Project Gunrunner indictments

One of the confidential sources that has given us consistently reliable information in the investigation we have come to call “Project Gunwalker” has performed an analysis of the indictments and connected some dots, all of which bolster allegations raised to date, including corroborative evidence that there was high level involvement at the Justice Department. [More]
This morning's Gun Rights Examiner column notes there are government indictments and then there are government indictments.
