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.

If the president is serious about curbing gun violence, this is what he needs to do......

Gun shows are a different matter in my book since I'm told that they don't perform background checks at gun shows. Why that loophole exists is a mystery to me, and closing it doesn't seem like too much to ask. The background checks that all of us have to endure when we purchase a rifle, shotgun, or pistol in a gun store may not be perfect, but they discourage known felons and people with a history of mental illness from attempting to buy guns.

'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.

Demand Celebrities Go F*ck Themselves....

Hollywood celebrities are so quick to jump on a cause. Take a look at the parade of movie stars that are quick to profit from movies that glorify killing and yet they call out for gun control. This clip says it all.

California gun sales jump; gun injuries, deaths fall......

Once again - THEY - OUR FEARLESS LEADERS - ARE WRONG about gun control as is not working.....

Gun deaths and injuries have dropped sharply in California, even as the number of guns sold in the state has risen, according to new state data.

Dealers sold 600,000 guns in California last year, up from 350,000 in 2002, according to records of sale tallied by the California Attorney General's office.

Anti-Gun Lunatics Take Over the Asylum

He offers "Bread and Circus..." Well said...

Determined not to let the senseless murder of at least 20 young schoolchildren and six adults by a madman last Friday in Connecticut go to waste, the nation’s Demagogue-in-Chief is taking aim at the Second Amendment by urging a reinstatement of the useless federal Assault Weapons Ban.

Invincible Ignorance - Thomas Sowell

Always a voice of reason in the swirl of insanity....

The key fallacy of so-called gun control laws is that such laws do not in fact control guns. They simply disarm law-abiding citizens, while people bent on violence find firearms readily available.

If gun control zealots had any respect for facts, they would have discovered this long ago, because there have been too many factual studies over the years to leave any serious doubt about gun control laws being not merely futile but counterproductive.

Gun sales surge after Connecticut massacre.....

As Ted Nugent says...."If guns commit murder, then my guns are defective"....it's the person pulling the trigger. You cannot legislate against EVIL.... 

Critics however say these high-power weapons, capable of firing multiple rounds quickly, are too dangerous, since their high velocity rounds can pierce most body armor and
their magazines allow for mass shootings.

Yet, statistics show, unlike handguns or shotguns, rifles account for only a fraction of homicides in the United States. Of 12,664 murder victims last year, only 323 were killed with rifles, according to the FBI.

MSNBC’s Ed Schultz Talks Gun ‘Confiscation’ .....

I'd say before they take OUR guns away - we need a little "clarity" about "Fast & Furious"...?

Liberals always say they don’t want to take away guns. But give them an awful tragedy like the Newtown, Conn. shooting and they get bolder and more honest. MSNBC host Ed Schultz showed a rare bout of such honesty during a brief Twitter exchange Saturday. Schultz asked “Why should anyone own an assault rifle ?” and followed it up by saying “it's the confiscation of these types of weapons that counts and will have an impact.”

“The Ed Show” host wasn’t done his attack on gun rights. “The NRA needs to state the case why assault weapons are needed by anyone,” he claimed. And after that, he told one poster that “a Glock pistol qualifies as an assault weapon.” That last bit is surely a surprise to both gun owners and Congress which didn’t include handguns in its previous assault weapons ban.

Ultimately, Schultz talked of changing the Constitution to one person on Twitter. “We are the Constitution and we as a people can change whatever we want. Get ready Dude !” he wrote.

The Second Amendment Is Not Negotiable.....

The right to own a firearm was considered by both the Framers of the Constitution in 1787 and by the current Supreme Court to be equal in importance to the right to speak freely, the right to peaceably assemble and the right to practice religion. These liberties are guaranteed to each of us by the first two amendments to the Constitution in the Bill of Rights.

Here it is, folks, and it is bad news: Obama’s Gun Ban List is Out... .....

Slipping below the radar (or under the short-term memory cap), the Democrats have already leaked a gun-ban list, even under the Bush administration when they knew full well it had no chance of passage (HR 1022, 110th Congress). It serves as a framework for the new list the Brady’s plan to introduce shortly.

I have an outline of the Brady’s current plans and targets of opportunity. It’s horrific. They’re going after the courts, regulatory agencies, firearms dealers and statutes in an all out effort to restrict we the people. They’ve made little mention of criminals.

President to bypass Congress on semiautomatic weapons ban?

President to bypass Congress on semiautomatic weapons ban?

Whitlock: After Belcher tragic murder-suicide, why are Chiefs playing? ......

Though I respect his emotion, he does not know a thing about the 2nd Amendment.........

I would argue that your rationalizations speak to how numb we are in this society to gun violence and murder. We’ve come to accept our insanity. We’d prefer to avoid seriously reflecting upon the absurdity of the prevailing notion that the second amendment somehow enhances our liberty rather than threatens it.

How many young people have to die senselessly? How many lives have to be ruined before we realize the right to bear arms doesn’t protect us from a government equipped with stealth bombers, predator drones, tanks and nuclear weapons?

American Patriots and Guns .....

With that as a backdrop, I was asked this week if Patriots have an obligation to arm themselves -- to be gun owners, and be proficient at the use of arms. I thought at first the question was rhetorical, but after some consideration, I realize that there are millions of grassroots Patriots who are NOT among the 60 million plus Patriots who are already law-abiding gun owners.

Apparently, the question needs to be addressed, as the answer may not be as obvious to some folks as it should be. By way of responding to this question, let me first briefly reiterate the historical and enduring case for gun ownership, which is as relevant today and tomorrow as it was at the dawn of our national founding.

Few crimes committed by concealed-carry permit holders in Kansas ....

Of the 51,078 permits that have been issued by the state since the law took effect in 2007, 44 permit holders have been charged with a crime while using a firearm through late October, according to records provided by the Kansas Attorney General’s Office.

That works out to one charge for every 1,161 permit holders, or 0.09 percent.

US guns sales soar after Barack Obama's re-election....

Owners of guns have been stocking up because they are concerned about a potential tightening of regulations on assault weapons in the president's second term.

In October the number of background checks on people applying to buy guns, an indicator of future sales, increased by 18.4 per cent.

Chicago's Cook County drops bullet tax, keeps gun levy.....

That's it....Government over-reach at it's best in Chicago. Let's see....we'll curb gun violence by punishing legal, responsible gun owners. One thing I did not see is out of these "29%" of guns legally purchased utilized in gun violence...how many were stolen..?....and how many were used in "protection"...which I'm sure these moon bats call "violence"....

And heck....isn't Obamacare going to be "Free" manna from heaven!? You won't have to pay for "anything" when it comes to gun violence victims...so why punish the ordinary??? Huuummmmmmm?

The senior executive of the county that includes Chicago dropped a proposed tax on bullets on Wednesday but kept a plan to tax firearms to help defray healthcare expenses associated with the high rate of gun.

"It is very important to us to tax guns because we know that guns are the sources of the incredible violence we have in our neighborhoods," Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle told a news conference. She said 29 percent of guns used in crimes in Chicago were purchased legally in suburban Cook County.

Obama's Gun Control Not Working Out So Well In Chicago....

Chicago is the gun control capital of the United States. It has long been characterized by politicians like Barack Obama who not only view concealed carry laws with disdain, but even oppose the individual right to keep and bear arms.

Obama even opposed the right to use guns for self-defense in the home while he was a state senator in Illinois.

Fast & Furious Ignored During Foreign Policy Debate.....

A foreign policy debate without Operation Fast & Furious is an epic failure. A government gun walking operation allowed over 2,000 guns to fall into the hands of Mexican drug cartels and are connected to the deaths of over 300 Mexican citizens and Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. Hundreds of guns are still missing. We know of at least one other operation out of Dallas, TX that is connected to the death of ICE Agent Jaime Zapata.
