Typical Liberal Swindle
They wanted to get a lot of guns into the Mexican drug wars so they could SAY that “most of their guns come from the United States” and use that to strengthen anti-gun laws. They screwed up. It didn’t work. They didn’t tell the media the guns that came from the U. S. were sold by this government itself, but they found out. After the conservative media broke it, they HAD to cover it, and it has become one of Obama's biggest scandals. I hope it sinks him. This is how the liberals in our government try to fool us into letting them do things we normally wouldn’t allow. When are we going to wake up and question their every action? And I mean even when the Republicans are in power because they do it, too. (American Thinker)

No Guns Needed
A man walked into a school in China, and killed eight (count ‘em, EIGHT) children. NOBODY in the school was armed and able to stop him because of STIFF anti-gun laws in communist China. “SHANGHAI — A former community doctor allegedly stabbed to death eight children and injured five others at a primary school in east China's Fujian province, the authorities said, as China grapples with a rise in high-profile criminal violence in its cities.” Notice, in a country with “no-nonsense” anti-gun laws for its citizens, criminals find a way to increase the violence. This proves my thesis that if there were NO GUNS in society, the “bad guys” would find a way to kill, maim, and intimidate people. The answer is to allow RESPONSIBLE people to get “carry” permits easily, or just make carrying guns “under cover” legal so those (usually) illegally armed criminals cannot ever be sure their intended victims will not be armed and able to defend themselves. There's certainly nothing out there to keep criminals from getting their illegal guns. This would cause most of them (criminals are basically cowards) to go into other lines of crime.

What You don't Know About Islam
They SAY it’s a “religion of peace.” But to them, peace is only possible when ALL countries are under Sharia Law and ALL people have converted to Islam, willingly or not. The Koran allows Muslims to LIE to “Infidels” (unbelievers) to conceal their goals. There are other things you need to know and this video tells you about many of them. Islam is NOT a “religion of peace.” Not by OUR definition of peace. It is a religious DUTY for Muslims to work to impose Islam on the entire world. They say one thing in their own meetings in their own language and quite another here in a language we understand. (Patriot Action Network)
Typical Expectations
"I'm confident of winning a second term.," Says Obama. The way Obama’s dupes talk, this sounds a bit like what they probably expect. They think he’s the reincarnation of the Messiah and can do anything. His failure to do so in so many cases doesn’t seem to disabuse them of this notion (or maybe what he HAS accomplished, that WE deplore, is counted as success to these ignorant people). I feel sorry for those people who are still driving with “Obama 2008” stickers on their cars. It will be even harder for me when I start seeing "Obama 2012" stickers begin appearing. If I had done something as abysmally stupid as voting for Brraaaccck Obama I certainly would not be advertising my stupidity this long afterward. I feel even more sorry for them because they STILL can’t see their error. (Mallard Fillmore)

Hillary Commits to UN Gun Ban
Obama has been heard to tell "gun banners" that the US is working "behind the scenes" (in secret) to support a national gun ban. The UN wants to ban guns in the hands of ALL citizens. Not the cops or “federal agents,” of course. They don’t care that we have a Constitution that guarantees our right to “keep and near arms.” They don’t think much of our Constitution and think they can get around it easily. Hillary has “committed” to support this gun ban. Maybe if she gets shot at she’ll change her mind. But I don’t think so. liberals ALL “blame the gun,” not the gunner. She thinks (like all liberals) that a LAW will keep criminals (who break the law daily) will OBEY a law that says they can’t be armed. The day possession of a gun becomes illegal, I will become a criminal. I will NOT give up my right to self defense and the right to own and use the means to that defense. Where the hell does HILLARY get off “committing” the U. S. to ANYTHING? (National Association for Gun Rights)

Is Obama Helping Drug Cartels?
Sure seems like it. He’s done all he can to GUT border control, and must have APPROVED the action to actually SELL GUNS to the drug cartels; guns that have been used to KILL many innocent people, among them several border control officers and ranchers. Does he figure his actions will help create the chaos that will help him impose a socialist government upon us? I don’t know. All I know is that these actions have had the EFFECT of doing that very thing. He has DENIED the KNOWN FACT that over-the-border violence by those cartels is rising precipitously while CUTTING the number of border control officers in the area. What is WRONG with this idiot? Is he STUPID? Or does he just not care? I can’t believe it! The Washington Post actually reported the news correctly, once, when it didn’t make Obama look good. (Washington Post)

Pharmacist Imprisoned for Killing Robber
This is the direction our Justice system has taken under the liberals. “On May 19, 2009, [Jerome –RT] Ersland went from unassuming pharmacist to killer. Just before 6 p.m., 16-year-old Antwun and a 14-year-old accomplice rolled into the Reliable Pharmacy, waving guns and demanding cash and drugs. Ersland’s co-workers escaped through a back entrance. Ersland, unable to flee due to crippling disability, fought back. Ersland shot Antwun first, and then chased Antwun’s accomplice for a short time before returning to find Antwun was still alive. A terrified Ersland retrieved a second weapon and emptied it into Antwun, killing him.” Ersland was afraid for his life when he killed Antwun, but that made no difference to the liberal judge and a largely liberal jury, who sent him to prison for life. I shudder to think of how this system will victimize us in the future as they further evolve. Personally, I believe a robber deserves what he gets when he enters a store waving a gun around.

UN Wants to Control Guns in US
They want a “global gun treaty” so Islamic terrorists won’t be able to get guns to use in killing innocent people. Yeah, that’ll work well. What the hell makes them think such a treaty (which they hope to slip by our Congress) will work any better on the terrorists than anti-gun laws already on the books IN the United States works to keep guns out of the hands of criminals, who break laws for a living? It’s already against the law in most countries to sell guns to terrorists, so how is this different, except it gives the UN control over guns in the United States? Anti-gun freaks in the US still can’t answer the question: “What makes you think that CRIMINALS, who break laws for a living, will OBEY one that says they can’t be armed?” The same question applies to terrorists.

Revoke Rate Miniscule
Florida has issued 1.9 million “concealed carry” permits and only FOUR have been revoked for cause. This puts the lie to the liberal (anti-gun freaks) admonition that Florida has created “a wild-West atmosphere” where people will wantonly kill each other. Actually, it proves that “an armed society is a polite society,” as Robert Heinlein said. As John Lott said, “More guns means less crime.” And he’s right. Florida’s violent crime rate is WAY down from what it was before that law was made. (John Lott)
Hard to Arm Themselves
Drug cartels find it easy to get American arms to use in killing anybody they wish. They get them from American dealers, at the behest of the Obama administration. This administration SAYS they allow it so they can “track” where the guns go down there. But they’re not “tracking” anything, and many of the guns sold down there have turned up in murder cases on both sides of the border. But U. S. citizens can’t seem to get a gun to use in defending themselves against those Mexican bandits who rob and kill on both sides of the border, despite the lies told by Obama. Obama says violent crime rates in border states are going down. Anybody who lives there know what a LIE that is. Just ask some of the ranchers who have been murdered when they objected to the illegal aliens crossing their land and making a mess as they do. (John Lott)

Schumer Wants ACCUSED to Lose Gun rights
Never mind that until they are CONVICTED of a crime, they are INNOCENT. Next, he’ll want to bar anybody that somebody pointed to and said “he’s guilty of a crime” from having a gun. Then it’ll be somebody ANYBODY just doesn’t like. Meanwhile, like many other politicians, he either has a carry permit or hires people who do to keep him safe. Like most politicians, he wants rules for US, but not for HIM. He thinks people “in his position” should be above laws for us “little people.” (John Lott)

Obama Approves Gun Sales for Mexico
They called it a “sting.” They said it was to “trace” the movement of guns in Mexico, but they did not “trace” anything. Now Mexico is blaming the United states for the number of guns available IN Mexico that came from the U. S. why would Obama DO that? So he could “crack down” on gun dealers in the U. S. Gun dealers who did nothing but what Obama wanted them to do. It’s the old “bait and switch.” Tell them it’s okay to sell guns to Mexican drug cartels because it’s a “sting.” Then come back and “crack down” on them for DOING it. (Prison Planet)

Laws Don't Apply to Them
California lawmakers, who have made some of the tightest “gun-control laws” in the nation, now get to carry their own guns, since so many Californians hate them for destroying the state’s economy. This is typical. Politicians just don’t want to be forced to OBEY the laws they make for the rest of us. So they don’t. They either specifically EXCLUDE themselves from the law or make another law to do it. We need to find a way to make a law forcing legislators to LIVE by the laws they make. But it’ll probably never happen, since it’s the legislators that will have to MAKE that law. (The Sacramento Bee)

Again, Blame the gun
That’ll be the response from the “anti-gun Nazis” when they hear about the gun attack in Philly that injured nine and killed one at a party. As usual, nothing is being said about the legality of the shooter carrying the gun he used. That’s because one: if he had a “carry permit” that’s an illustration that anti-gun laws don’t stop such shootings and; two: if he didn’t, how easy it is for criminals to get guns in “tight” gun law areas like Philly. But you can count on them to “blame the gun,” which is an inanimate object that cannot kill anybody unless in the hand of a human who can pull the trigger. (Fox News)

She Could Have Stopped It
Dr. Suzanna Hupp is a licensed gun carrier. She could easily have “put a couple into” a man who crashed his car into a Texas Luby’s restaurant, got out, and started shooting people at random. But Texas has a law that makes it a felony to carry a gun into a restaurant, even if you’re licensed. So she had left her gun in her car. That cost a lot of people, including her father and mother, their lives. That short-sighted law cost these people their lives when if she had had her gun with her, she could have put an end to this madman’s massacre before he killed any more people. Instead, he randomly killed a lot of people, unopposed. She made a point to tell these lawmakers a simple thing: hunting is not the reason for the constitutional guarantee of the right to carry the means to personal protection, a gun. It is so we can defend ourselves against criminals, including those sitting on that dias. A judge recently ruled that states have the right to “regulate” guns. He’s wrong. The Constitution of the United States is the BASIS for ALL laws in the country. Federal AND state. But he’s a judge; so who’s going to tell him he’s wrong except another judge? (YouTube)

Blame the Gun
A gunman opened fire at a Brazilian school recently and 13 people were killed. Nothing has been said about whether or not the gunman had the guns legally, or was breaking the law just by carrying them. This shooting just shows one thing: laws against carrying guns around would not have done ANYTHING to keep this shooting from happening. But the anti-gun Nazis won’t consider that. To them, it’s “the gun’s fault” whenever a human being takes an inanimate gun, which can do nothing without a human pointing it and pulling its trigger. I’m waiting for the next report about somebody going into a school with a kitchen knife (again—it happened in Korea) and killing people so the “anti-knife” people can have their day. (The Blaze)

U. S. Supplies Guns to Mexican Drug Cartels
NRA perennial vice president Wayne LaPierre called Glenn Beck to reveal a shocking and unbelievable story: the United states government provided illegal guns to Mexican drug cartels. But he did not make it clear, as I did last week, that it was done to discredit America by providing proof that most of the guns used there came from US sources. I don’t know if Glenn understands it yet, but this is the kind of thing Obama would do. Provide guns to murderers to prove a lying point he has been trying to prove. (Glenn Beck)

Anti-Gun Freaks
Someone asks if you would like to be in a store where everyone has a gun. My answer is “yes.” If I’m in a store where only one person has a gun, everybody could easily be killed by that one person with a gun. With ten people armed, if that one person starts shooting at people, he can be stopped before he CAN kill everybody in the store. That was amply illustrated last year when a man came into a Colorado church and started shooting people. He ran into a woman who had her own gun and she shot him. Then he committed suicide and was only able to kill two people at this church. He had already killed several people at another church where there was nobody else with a gun, earlier. But thanks to this courageous woman, he will never kill again. (Yahoo Extra Answers)

CNN Invokes Reagan
Reagan used to be a liberal—before he “saw the light” and became more of a conservative than a liberal. Back then, he “followed the liberal line” somewhat, and was somewhat in favor of gun control laws. But like all the other liberal ideas he spurned when he “woke up to reality,” he spurned the gun control laws that controlled everything BUT guns. They SAY more than 24,000 people have died of gunshot wounds, just since the Tucson shooting. So what? If there were not guns, people would find other ways to kill people. Gun control jerks just won’t realize the simple fact that CRIMINALS, who break the law for a LIVING, will NOT obey a law saying they cannot be armed. People who want to kill, will KILL, whatever they have to use to kill with. Maybe we should ban all PEOPLE. Guns cannot kill without a PERSON pulling the trigger. (News Busters)

"Guns Walking"
They called it a “sting” to find out where the guns would go. But what it amounts to is that ATF was SUPPLYING guns and ammo to Mexican drug cartels. Agents were against it, but were ORDERED to “stand by and let it happen.” I wonder how many people, both in Mexico and the United States, are dead because of this policy. At least one Border Patrol agent has been killed by a gun traceable to this "program." Yes, intelligence is needed. But we don’t have to SUPPLY guns for Mexican drug cartels in order to learn it. Now an ATF agent is risking his job and maybe his life by “opening this can of worms.” Do you expect anything substantive to be done about it? I doubt it. They will “convene” panel after panel, none of which will come up with anything, nor punish anybody. But they will be able to point to them and say, “We’re doing something.” Meanwhile this agent, if he manages to keep his job, will be shipped to Nome, Alaska or maybe further away.

"Getting Around the Constitution"
This is how liberals operate. Work within the Constitution if you can, find “ways around it” if you can’t. “WASHINGTON -- Faced with a Congress hostile to even slight restrictions of Second Amendment rights, the Obama administration is exploring potential changes to gun laws that can be secured strictly through executive action, administration officials say.” This is a direct quote from the Huffington Post, hardly a “conservative bastion.” I print it here because I went to the page where the story about this was, and there seems to be a problem loading it. Is it a “technical problem?” Or is Obama ordering them to remove it? Here’s the link; it may or may not still be there when you go there. Or Obama might want to imprison me for linking to it.

Criminals Push Gun Control
Why? Because they know gun control will mean fewer guns in the hands of honest people and will foster a “safer workplace” for them. It’s a known fact (but not to the “anti-gun freaks”) that tighter gun control laws makes for better violent crime without worry of danger for the criminals. They also know guns are EASIER for criminals to get in areas where gun control laws are the tightest. I don’t know why politicians can’t understand the simple thought that CRIMINALS, whose entire lives are dedicated to breaking the law, will NOT obey a law that says they cannot be armed. This video is an obvious parody. But it says a lot. (YouTube)

Gun-Free Zone
This is what a “gun-free zone” is. A place the criminals can be fairly sure there won’t be anybody there with their own gun to oppose them when they come in and rob and kill people with their own ILLEGAL guns. Does ANYBODY really think a CRIMINAL, whose entire life is DEDICATED to violating the law, will OBEY a law saying he can’t be armed? If you do, you have way too much faith in the effect of laws on criminals. (Just common sense)

Just As Wrong
In South Dakota they want to pass a law FORCING every citizen to buy a gun. This is just as unconstitutional as Obama’s health care swindle law that requires every American to buy health insurance. What gives these “lawmakers” the idea they have the right to DEMAND a citizen buy ANYTHING? So-called “lawmakers” at all levels are constantly coming up with laws that exceed their authority and spit on the Constitution. We ought to make a law that can punish them for even SUGGESTING a law that is patently unconstitutional. But that isn’t going to happen when the very people who think they are “all-powerful” will have to MAKE that law. (The Patriot Update)

No Exceptions!
Unless you’re Islamic, of course. In one school in Michigan, a Sikh student is allowed to carry a dull knife because is is a “religious requirement.” Never mind other students are not allowed to observe THEIR “religious requirements” because they are not Middle Eastern religions. In a nation where a MINIATURE toy gun carried by a BOY in his pocket is grounds for him to be expelled, a Sikh is allowed to carry a dull knife, which could STILL be used as a weapon. This in a nation where a “no tolerance policy” for weapons of ANY kind, even tiny ones, is normally enforced. (Detroit Free Press)

"Thou Shall NOt "Pack Heat"
That’s the “commandment” the liberals would like to impose upon us. Others realize that it’s only common sense to say they the most BASIC human right is the right to SELF DEFENSE and the right to own, carry, and USE the means to that end today, a gun. The bad guys, who have NO trouble obtaining guns to use in robbing and killing us, need to WONDER if that supposed “easy target” he/she is about to attack will be armed and willing to kill him before he/she can kill/rob his victim. This alone would serve to reduce the number of violent attacks decidedly—without anyone firing a shot or killing anybody. Thieves are basically cowards, anyway. But that argument is lost on liberals, who are “tone deaf” to any argument that destroys any of their cherished goals. (World Net Daily)

No Evidence
The liberals like to “pontificate” on things without any kind of evidence there’s anything wrong. Such is their screeching about guns; and high-capacity magazines and the “need” for tighter gun laws, none of which will do ANYTHING to limit the access to guns, high-capacity magazines, or anything else to people like the Arizona shooter. If they want it, SOMEBODY will sell it to them. Quicker in areas where gun laws are “tight” than anywhere else. Glenn Beck’s buddy Stu paints a very different picture than do the liberals who are now calling for CENSORSHIP of CONSERVATIVES, while ignoring the “hate speech” that daily comes out of the mouths of liberals who want Sarah Palin ASSASSINATED (Salon Magazine), and Justice Thomas fed a lot of bacon and sausage in hopes he will have a heart attack. I can’t believe how STUPID these people are, and how stupid they think WE are. We need to CALL them on what they say, and make them PROVE it. (Glenn Beck)

Gun Sales Up 60%
In the wake of the Arizona shooting. And this is a problem how? I’m glad to see it. Maybe there will now be fewer people like Jared Laughner out shooting into crowds now that he can’t depend on there not being anybody in the crowd with his own gun, ready and able to put a few in him before he can kill any more people in the crowd. Have you ever noticed such crazy shooters never go to a GUN SHOW to shoot it up? That’s because he doesn’t want to resemble a “Swiss cheese” right after he starts shooting. One man actually went into a GUN STORE to hold it up. When it was over, he had 13 bullet wounds from guns in the hands of the store owner and two customers in the store, who happened to be police officers. By the way: has anybody seen anything about this in America’s media? (Guardian)

Thank God for Guns!
At least, guns in the hands of honest people. Usually, television shows decry guns in EVERYBODY’S hands because most of the producers of such shows are gun-haters (except for themselves, of course). But apparently the producers of “Boston Legal” are of a different sort, as witness this delightful video, taken, apparently, from one of their episodes. I don’t usually watch that show because lawyer shows bore me. I have nothing against it, but I actually go out of my way to watch only one or two series, such as NCIS and Bones. But maybe I’ll add this one to my list. Watch the video and get a good laugh. (Boston Legal)

It's NOT Radio, OR Guns!
It's the idiots who use them. Politicians are all over the map trying to advance their own personal agendas on Gabby Giffords’ head—literally. Those who want to shut conservatives up are using her shooting by flapping their lips about talk radio “instigating” these shootings while others are blaming the gun or the high-capacity cartridge-holder instead of the completely ‘round the bend jerk who used it to kill 6 people including a federal judge, a nine-year-old girl and (almost) a congresswoman. They talk about “vitriolic rhetoric” when the most vitriolic rhetoric comes from their very own mouths. They talk about the “wild West atmosphere” prevalent in Arizona and the West, while making sure their own ability to carry their guns or hire their armed bodyguards is secure. It's absurd to blame the guns, or other inanimate things like cartridge cases when the REAL blame is on the heads of such idiot lame-brains as Jared Laughner. This guy is completely 'round the bend, and if you don't believe it, just look at his booking photo, wherein he gives us a very "spooky" grin. This guy should have been locked away from society long ago, but nobody paid any attention to his stupidities. That's where the blame lies: crazies running around spouting their craziness, while nobody does anything about it. Very few people like him have any trouble getting the guns they use, regardless of the law. In fact, the tighter the gun laws, the easier it is to get them illegally. (Los Angeles Examiner)

Anti-Gun Laws Don't Work!
The gun didn’t kill a (Republican) federal judge in Arizona. The man who pulled the trigger killed the judge and wounded many others, including a congresswoman. Making laws to limit access to guns just DOES NOT WORK. Those who want to indiscriminately kill people will do it, with or without a gun. In Korea some time ago, a man went into a school and killed several students with KNIFE. The tighter the gun laws are in a given area, the easier it is to get a gun illegally because more people are selling them. I keep saying this, and nobody says I’m wrong. But nobody recognizes that I’m right, either. I talk and talk and talk, and nobody listens. And people die. People will continue to die until somebody with some INTELLIGENCE recognizes reality and allows honest people to have and use the means to their inalienable right of self defense, a gun. If just ONE PERSON had had a gun and been willing to use it in Arizona, maybe the shooter would be dead and the death toll much lower. But NO! The anti-gun nuts prevailed and six more innocent people are dead. (Just common sense)

Making Hay While the Sun Shines
The anti-gun fanatics lost no time to advance their agenda to disarm all Americans based on the legality of the gun purchase by the Arizona shooter. According to the Wall Street Journal, he bought the gun legally several weeks ago, despite “certain people” knowing he was “disturbed.” But I’ll say this: insane or not, he would have had no trouble obtaining a gun, anywhere in the country. If he couldn’t get it legally, he’d buy it out of the trunk of some crook’s car on a back street or in an alley. And it is known that where “tight gun laws” prevail. It’s even easier to find such criminals willing to sell illegal guns. They say, ”Of course he had a gun. This is Arizona, after all.” As if it’s “Arizona, where it’s ‘the Wild West,’ after all.” Yes, no license is needed to carry a gun in Arizona. But Arizona (except for illegal aliens killing innocent ranchers) is one of the safest states there is. (NECN)

Self Defense Without A Gun
I’ve been researching the whole idea of self defense without a gun, since the “powers that be” will not, in most places. Allow you to carry a gun for self defense. Everywhere I go they talk about carrying knives (requiring training) or those ubiquitous black meal flashlights cops carry. That’s two or more D-cells of pure lead in a metal container. Have you noticed “nightsticks” have mostly disappeared in favor of these nifty flashlights? That’s because they’re NOT a weapon until USED as one—and if used in self defense, you usually won’t be charged with anything unless you hit your attacker a bunch of times, and maybe kill him. Frankly, I market a complete line of disguised self defense products, including stun guns looking like cell phones, pagers, and such. We also have pepper sprays, also disguised as innocuous items such as lipsticks, pens, even RINGS. But one of the best things I ever learned was how to make a weapon out of just about anything.
You can knock someone out with a heavy ashtray or anything else heavy, from that flashlight to a heavy cane. If you’re holding a radio (and it’s big enough), hit him with it. If it’s not very big, hit him anyway. It will divert his attention. Even something as innocuous as a pen or a pencil, or a key chain can be used to stab or slap him him enough to get his attention long enough for you to get away. At Barnes & Noble bookstores there is a “page holder” with each end weighted by something heavy and even looks like a sap. It’s legal to carry, and you should keep the box to prove it. If you’re carrying “take out,” throw it in the attacker’s face, Then get out of there, quick! Just about anything lying around can similarly be used, such as a dinner plate, even a full water bottle. All you want is something to divert the attacker’s attention long enough for you to get away. Of course, if he has a gun (as many crooks will, since they’re so easy to get illegally if you don’t care about the law), I don’t care if you have a Howitzer in your pocket. Don’t reach for it. But if he has less than a gun (many do), there are many things you can do, as listed above. (Just common sense)
