On Thursday Governor Maggie Hassan’s spokesman, Aaron Jacobs, talked with WMUR about several gun control bills that failed in the senate recently. It was an enlightening conversation considering Hassan has never talked about banning firearms before although she’s always been suspected of being a gun banner due to her allegiance with gun control lobbyist Michael Bloomberg.

It is not illegal in New Hampshire to use firecrackers. But if you want them you have to buy them outside the state because it is illegal to sell firecrackers in the state of New Hampshire. You have to drive to Maine or other states to get them.

House Bill 1266 resolved that bizarre contradiction, or would have had Democrat governor Maggie Hassan not vetoed it. Max Abramson brought this to our attention last Saturday in our legislative update segment, which you can find below.

As the story goes, only one fireworks retailer spoke out against the bill. He owns fireworks stores in New Hampshire and Maine. His Maine stores sell firecrackers to New Hampshire residents who want them.

And Kelly Ayotte, former NH Attorney General and one that is supposed to know about Rights, has gone full Monty on Collin’s no-due-process-before-but-you-can-petition-a-judge-afterwards law that goes after guns instead the true enemy – Islamic Jihadis. A bureaucrat can take away your Second Amendment Right simply by deeming you “suspicious” – no charges, no evidence, no habeas corpus, no judge, no jury and no law.

Just a bureaucrat “and a pen”.  THIS should make us ALL very nervous knowing that the Feds are metricing their agents to put people on that list (reformatted, emphasis mine):

The air marshals, whose identities are being concealed, told 7NEWS that they’re required to submit at least one report a month. If they don’t, there’s no raise, no bonus, no awards and no special assignments. “Innocent passengers are being entered into an international intelligence database as suspicious persons, acting in a suspicious manner on an aircraft … and they did nothing wrong,” said one federal air marshal. These unknowing passengers who are doing nothing wrong are landing in a secret government document called a Surveillance Detection Report, or SDR. Air marshals told 7NEWS that managers in Las Vegas created and continue to maintain this potentially dangerous quota system.

Well, it looks like Republican Congressional candidate, Jim Lawrence, has decided that Annie Kuster joining the crybaby “sit in” over gun control (instead of Islamic Jihadi control) was just too good to let go.  WHY do a sit in where YOU ARE LEGALLY ALLOWED TO BE?

Kinda defeats the whole purpose, eh?

Jim Lawrence to Congresswoman Kuster:
“It’s time to put people over political posturing”

Hudson, NH, June 23, 2016 — Jim Lawrence today called out Congresswoman Kuster on her willingness to put political posturing over the people of the Second Distict. In the last 24 hours Congresswoman Kuster not only joined the Democrats for their political theater “sit-in” on the house floor, but she then also took the opportunity to collect names for fundraising.

Jim released the following statement on the matter:

“What happened in Orlando was a horrific act of terror. Unfortunately, the citizens of New Hampshire are no safer now then they were when Ann Kuster came to Washington. Instead of working for the people of the Second Congressional District, the Congresswoman prefers acts of political theater. Her willingness to trample on the rights of law abiding gun owners across the Granite State so she can pad her campaign coffers is frankly appalling.

That would be the No Fun League, not the football guys.  I keep saying that the Environmentalists and the Crowd of No – no, you can’t do this and you can’t do that or this other thing.  All in the name of using No energy and Lloyd Alter over at TreeHugger is certainly one of them; the operative word is “sniff” (as in “seriously, you like doing that”?  Well here, he decides to go on a rant, on all things, LG’s vacuum cleaner stunt.  Simply a well known climber strapped a couple to her back and climbed a glass skyscraper in Seoul. His complaint:

The Set Up:

TreeHugger used to have a Waste of Energy Department where we would show silly electric things that could be done manually with no trouble at all, from an electric martini shaker to the Garlic Express. It’s time to bring back the WED as we watch Sierra Blair-Coyle , who can climb anything in the world with her bare hands, instead use two cordless LG vacuum cleaners connected to rubber suction cups to climb up the side of a 460 foot high office building in Seoul.

And The Rant:

What a snob – typical Leftist MSMer who believes that HE has free speech but no one else does?  Once again, we see little tolerance in the news bureau (who 90-95% vote and give campaign donations strictly to Democrats) and reinforcement that the MSM is slanted in both its outlook and actions. “Mr.” Pierce of The Citizen was some unhappy when he read an email from Flanagan (similar to what Jim Lawrence put out) taking Annie Kuster to the woodshed over her “sit-in / Publicity stunt (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Please remove our newspaper from your mailing list immediately.  If this is how Mr. Flanagan is launching his campaign, I seriously recommend some self-reflection. I believe the issue deserves an up and down vote and can’t fault Rep. Kuster for standing up (or sitting down) for something she believes in. Sort of like not giving an up and down vote to the Supreme Court nominee…burying your head in the sand and hoping it will go away, right?

So, a Democrat (and rather way-Left leaning Progressive) can do and speak her mind but a Republican

Mike’s picture is certainly better (One post down if you please), but I thought I’d add the vote for those interested.

Congratulations to British voters for freeing themselves from at least one oppressive unresponsive bureaucracy.

A few days ago during an interview, New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen made some pretty egregious and outrageous statements about her own constituents.

Shaheen actually said that people who buy AR-15s are only doing so with bad intentions.

Here’s a nifty bit of science for you. A graph of temperatures going back 4000 years before SUV’s (BSUV). Alright, it’s 4000 years BP (Before Present) but it might as well be BSUV given that SUV’s (our poster child for reckless western abuse of cheap abundant energy) are only a fraction of the end of this graph wild ride.

Read this for the notes and details about the graph and other events it may not reflect. There is an 18,000 year temperature analysis and timeline here.

Did you know…

That more people were murdered by clubs, hammers etc. than with rifles?

Or that more people were murdered by hands, fists, feet or pushed than with rifles and shotguns combined?

It’s true.  510 people were murdered in the United States in 2014 by rifles and shotguns and 660 were murdered by hands, fists, feet or pushed according to the FBI.  Crazy, amiright?  I mean if you listened to the gun grabbers you’d think that guns were the only thing killing everybody, everywhere, all the time with the amount of wide-eyed, spittle riddled hysteria flying out from the anti-gun freaks.

Here’s the data table:
