420 Protesters Troll Gun Grabbers in Concord, New Hampshire

420 counter rally Move to Massachusetts

The Libertarians recently had the pleasure of sharing “protesting space” with Teacher’s Union organizers at the New Hampshire State House. The Big Money Union shindig was a shill for the Democrat-Socialist gun-grabbing narrative. The 420 folks were there to smoke weed and punk the Union hacks whose solution to just about everything is more government control over law-abiding citizens. Which is really weird in this context. Their motivation for applying more of that control is Parkland which only happened because of the epic failure of blessed government at every level.

You’d like to think that “teachers” have more capacity to learn but to the assembled, it seems that the progressive carapace prevents the penetration of any evidence that contradicts the agenda.

A New Kind Of Vicious

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”   —Sir Edmund Burke

D'Marquis Elkins - Brunswick Georgia Baby Killer
D’Marquis Elkins – Brunswick Georgia Baby Killer

This is 17-year old D’Marquis Elkins of Brunswick, Georgia. Elkins is a criminal…a young criminal…not even eighteen years old yet. In early March Elkins needed some cash so he decided to do what his skill set allows…a Robbery.

Sherry West was pushing her stroller along when she was confronted by Elkins and 15-year-old Dominique Lang. Elkins demanded money. West told him, she didn’t have any money. He fired a shot, grazing her ear. Repeating his demands, West again pleaded with him that she didn’t have any money.

Two New York State troopers stopped Gregory Dean, a 31-year-old Dutchess County resident on Route 22 in New Lebanon for a broken license plate light.

Three summonses were issued to Dean: Driving with a suspended license; an inadequate license plate; and unlawful possession of ammunition device, a Class B misdemeanor.”

Columbia County District Attorney Paul Czajka said he examined the seriousness and nature of the crime along with Dean’s criminal history (or lack thereof) and subsequently determined  it to be the best exercise in prosecutorial discretion in declining

The Shields Model for Gun Confiscation

“All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party.”   —Mao Tse Tung

Gun_GrabbersWho is Pete Shields?” Nelson T. “Pete” Shields, the Third, born in 1924, was the 1978 founder of  Handgun Control, Inc.

Why 10 rounds is not enough

I’ve been shooting for a couple of years now and while I can “game out”a situation like this, I do not know, can’t know, what my reactions really would be.  Would 10 rounds be enough?  Certainly for one intruder, I hope.  Two?  Didn’t work out for that Dad – or his family.  And if Reid … Read more

The Gun Maker’s Exodus Part II

“The number one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S.” —That “Happy Warrior”Vice-President Joseph Biden

MovingSign1That is what he said…and without much credibility because we know that vice president Biden is a stupid person. Alas, the “Happy Warrior.”  This quote is instructive, because on the one hand, vapid lip service is given to the importance of job creation, yet a legal…constitutional activity…gun manufacturing is under siege in the nation. But Joe and his cadre soldiers on…Perhaps he can join Charlie for a visit to Candy Mountain.

Several states, also home to major manufacturers of firearms, have undertaken legislative initiatives

Doug Wyllie, Editor-in-Chief at Police One.com conducted a survey of More than 15,000 verified law enforcement professionals. The scope and purpose of this survey was aimed at bringing together the thoughts and opinions of the only professional group devoted to limiting and defeating gun violence as part of their sworn responsibility.  Wyllie says, “It’s important to note that 70 percent of respondents are field–level law enforcers — those who are face-to-face in the fight against violent crime on a daily basis — not office-bound, non-sworn administrators or perpetually-campaigning elected officials.

Wylie’s comprehensive  30 question survey afforded police officers across the Nation to share their

And Now For the Ammunition Ban

“If there are twelve clowns in a ring, you can jump in the middle and start reciting Shakespeare, but to the audience, you’ll just be the thirteenth clown” —Adam Walinsky

McCarthy_LautenbergWe’ve talked a great deal these past months about a potential gun grab. What went sleepliy unnoticed was Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ), and Rep. Carolyn McCarthy’s legislation introduced in July of last year, a bill to make the sale of ammunition “safer for law-abiding Americans”  who are sick and tired of the ease with which criminals can now anonymously stockpile ammunition for [sic] mass murder.

Australia Gun Control Report Card

Insanity in individuals is something rare – but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.  —Friedrich Nietzsche

Oh No Guns....and magazines...and ammoI am a member of a group on LinkedIn called “Hunting, Fishing and Outdoor Professionals.” In a discussion thread the question was asked, “How do you feel about the banning of AR’s and 30 round clips?”

Nobody defended the current administration’s advocacy for their so-called “assault weapons” ban. In fact all posting are against further measures. It is also important to note that the members of this group do not come strictly from the U.S., as there

“Legal Gun Owners Against Stupid Gun-Grabbing Mayors”

Gun Rights win

Mike ‘Buckshot’ Bloomberg has an organization called Mayors Against Illegal Guns which just spent 12 million dollars of his money on ads in thirteen states–to pressure US Senators to pass some Bloomberg-esque law or other.  But what we really got from these ads was a lesson in how little the folks involved know about safely handling a firearm.

Katie Pavlich at Townhall.com gives us a link to Emily Miller at the Washington Times …

Mr. Bloomberg’s organization, Mayors Against Illegal Guns, produced two ads featuring a man holding a shotgun, wearing plaid flannel with a camouflage cap and sitting on the tailgate of a pickup truck. While a child swings on a tire in the background, the man says, “I support comprehensive background checks so criminals and the dangerously mentally ill can’t buy guns.”

Plaid flannel?  Camo hat?  Pick-up truck?  I don’t see his dog, did it run off with his banjo?
