NY Has Tentative Deal on Gun Control.......

Yup....kill the legal gun industry...works wonders on this terrific ...?...economy....

"Gun advocates see these incidents as almost cyclical and that in the wake of a national shooting incident, they have seen repeated calls for control," he said Monday. "They view it as a slippery slope to the banning and confiscation of weapons. Emotions run high and there will be tremendous pressure on all upstate legislators, Republicans and Democrats, to keep their base."

Also a concern is a major gun manufacturer in upstate New York.

'Demand a Plan' Gun Control Celebrities Ignore Harsh Realities....

I love Jeremy Renner, but has he EVER been in a film of merit that didn't have a weapon? The Avengers, The Town, Hansel & Gretel, The Hurt Locker, The Bourne Legacy, Ghost Protocol  - come on!......I loved all the films...but as an anti-gun advocate???....Please!

For example, after a brief search, I was able to find that two of the actors in the “demand a plan” video were also involved in the 2010 movie "The Town." Question: what was anyone from that movie doing in a public conversation on gun violence? "The Town" was so violent that a Time magazine review called one of the characters in the movie “trigger happy.” No one associated with that movie, like Jon Hamm and Jeremy Renner, should be part of any discussion concerning gun violence. Maybe these actors thought no one would research their previous movie credits, but now that the news is out it looks pretty hypocritical.

Americans never give up your guns.....

These days, there are few things to admire about the socialist, bankrupt and culturally degenerating USA, but at least so far, one thing remains: the right to bear arms and use deadly force to defend one's self and possessions.

This will probably come as a total shock to most of my Western readers, but at one point, Russia was one of the most heavily armed societies on earth. This was, of course, when we were free under the Tsar. Weapons, from swords and spears to pistols, rifles and shotguns were everywhere, common items. People carried them concealed, they carried them holstered. Fighting knives were a prominent part of many traditional attires and those little tubes criss crossing on the costumes of Cossacks and various Caucasian peoples? Well those are bullet holders for rifles.

The Left Is convinced Americans won't fight for 2nd Amendment rights....

People just do not realize how the 2nd protects all the other amendments....especially the First....

Maybe Democrats are confident that fallout from Sandy Hook will provide the floor votes necessary to disarm the American people. But if the Left is willing to risk picking this fight with millions of American gun owners, it must also believe something far more important—that Americans who have spent years arming themselves against the ultimate expression of tyranny by their own government–the overthrow of the Second Amendment– will choose to not fight when the time finally comes.

Buchanan warns of 'revolution' if government attempts to ban and confiscate firearms.....

JOHN MCLAUGHLIN: With no Second Amendment, Congress could pass a law, as limited as this: banning assault rifles or as sweeping as prohibiting all private firearm ownership and requiring the surrender of all privately held firearms.
BUCHANAN: There would be a revolution in this country!

Obama Would Call on Military to Disarm Americans During National Emergency .......

Given the imminent introduction of Senator Dianne Feinstein’s draconian gun control legislation, which would instantly criminalize millions of gun owners in the United States if passed, concerns that the Obama administration could launch a massive gun confiscation effort have never been greater.

Why the 2nd Amendment.....

Thomas Jefferson: "What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms."

We already gave up on the Constitution.....

Two and a half cheers for Louis Michael Seidman, the Georgetown law professor whose “Let’s Give Up on the Constitution” was a dead fish wrapped in the New York Times op-ed page.

Seidman calls the Constitution “archaic, idiosyncratic and downright evil.” He’s wrong, but at least he expresses his contempt for the rule of law openly and honestly, instead of insulting our intelligence with insincere twaddle about a “living document.”

Alsip, Illinois Cancels Water Tower Christmas Cross.....

If they eliminate the presence of god, religion...the tenants of our Founding...they begin to successfully remove the linch pins that hold it all together.

However, this year, facing threats of a costly legal battle, Mayor Patrick Kitching is discontinuing the festive display. Using a tactic that it frequently relies upon, the FFRF threatens lawsuits as a means of intimidating communities into removing religious displays from public property — a plan that has, in instances like this one, proven effective.

Not wanting to waste public dollars on a costly lawsuit that Alsip would potentially lose, the mayor made the tough choice to nix the tradition.

The Founders Believed in Secession......

In the aftermath of petitions from all 50 states to secede being posted on the White House website and signed by over a million Americans, the secessionist movement has been portrayed as anti-American, unpatriotic and even treasonous. In reality, as Ron Paul has emphasized, it is as American as apple pie and George Washington.

The Innocence of Obama......

REMEMBER this on Nov. 6th...is THIS the America you want?

 The woman whose policy had overthrown the Libyan government and then placed a barely defended consulate in the middle of a city of jihadists did not promise the grieving father that his son’s killers would pay. She promised him that the man who offended his son’s killers would pay. Not only would his son be the first casualty of that appeasement policy, but the Constitution that his son had sworn to support and defend would be the second casualty.

Barack Obama and the Fundamental Transformation of America.....

He will fundamentally transform America from a society where the majority of people live by the sweat of their brows to one where the majority live off the labors of a shrinking productive class.

He will fundamentally transform America from one where the American dream is a job, home, and family to one where the dream is food stamps, welfare, Obama-phones, and government dependency.

We Can't Afford Four More Years ....

During last night's debate, we saw the clear choice facing voters in this campaign. President Obama can't defend his record and has no new ideas to run on. Mitt Romney clearly demonstrated that he is a leader who will create jobs, turn around our economy, and work across the aisle. We can't afford four more years like the last four years.

ObamaCare: The Kiss of Death....

If you think Obama is so wonderful...and our "free" Obamacare is the answer...READ THIS and pass it on....
I've yet to read an article that says costs will come down.
And really....has the Government EVER saved us money - REALLY?

The facts are that Obama and his Democratic Party comrades fudged the numbers, engaged in enormously fraudulent accounting tricks, double-counted Medicare funds, dissembled about what ObamaCare would really entail ("We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it."), and completely misinformed Congress and the public about the scope and impact of these new laws and entitlement programs.

The Constitution Reader......

I have the hard cover...I'm working on the on-line courses.....please take the time......Hillsdale is wonderful!

Featuring 113 essential primary source documents, THE U.S. CONSTITUTION: A READER is taught as part of the core undergraduate course on the U.S. Constitution at Hillsdale College.

Divided into eleven sections with introductions by members of Hillsdale's Politics Department faculty, readings cover the American founding, Civil War, Progressivism, and the rise of the administrative state.

Hey kids! Let's have a Constitutional Convention!....

I've been reading about this guy and his proposal....good lord......

And do we need a new Constitution replete with all sorts of new "positive" rights, the likely loss of Second Amendment protections, and probably the vast expansion of federal power all to solve a budget crisis brought about by political gridlock? Seems to me that Levinson wants to use a nuclear bomb to kill a gnat. We don't need a new constitution to balance the budget - but a constitutional amendment would be in order.

And that's really the point. The Constitution makes it possible to fix what ails us through the amendment process. Is it hard to accomplish? Rightly so. The founders didn't want their descendants mucking up their handiwork unless it was deemed necessary by the vast majority of the people.
