Jim Carrey’s Cold Dead Hand – A Rebuttal

Christopher Cook — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 19:45:11 +0000

In this video from Reason TV, Remy takes on the walking, talking ball of raging hypocrisy that is Jim Carrey. From his positions on guns to his crusade against life-saving vaccines, Carrey is certainly what one would call a target-rich environment.

One thing that Remy missed was Carrey’s comments bashing white people, collectively, as a group. It wasn’t in his “Cold Dead Hands” video, though that has been deemed an assault on rural and southern whites. Rather, it was in an ...

Greg Stanton’s Publicity Stunt

First of two parts.
[The Arizona Republic has decided against running this story.]

To provide balance to the constant promotional drumbeat the media has supplied for the inaccurately named Phoenix gun buyback (you can’t buy back something you never owned), this two-part series will examine what’s really occurring in the mysteriously funded city-supported gun buy ups in Phoenix.

A handful of close associates saw an early version of this piece while the Arizona Republic was deciding against publishing it; now ...

NICS Operations Stats Too Horrible to Believe

By Alan Korwin

The lamestream media told you:

Although 90% of Americans suddenly support something called “universal background checks,” which they had never heard of before, now that a madman killed little children in Connecticut, Congress has done nothing. The checks would have done nothing to save the children, a point on which everyone agrees. Dianne Feinstein’s bill to ban guns Americans already own, which she has been promoting for 20 years, did not even make ...

Gun Background Checks: The Guilty Go Free and the Innocent Are Found Guilty

Background-Checked Fugitives Set Free, Constantly

Lack of prosecutions outrages Congress.

Lack of arrests outrages everyone (except the media, who are clueless).

Congress is 20 years behind the curve on this one.

Push for more of the same in Manchin-Toomey bill now questioned.

Do we want innocents surveyed or criminals apprehended?

The lamestream media told you:

Nothing. They missed this part of the story altogether. Actually, that’s not correct. They had it and suppressed it.

The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:

Rep. Trey Gowdy (Rep., SC) asked AG Eric ...

80% of Kids Die From Undisclosed Causes

By Alan Korwin

The lamestream media told you:

Nearly one in five injury-related deaths in children and adolescents involve firearms, reports Liz Szabo, a reporter whose anti-gun stories are regular features in USA Today, a “news” paper with one of the worst anti-gun bias records in America. Thanks to First Amendment protection, they can spin stories and spew propaganda or anti-rights bigotry without any media control.

The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:

More than four out of five injury-related deaths in children and adolescents ...

The U.N. Is Preparing Global Gun Control

The lamestream media told you:

Part I: The U.N. Arms Trade Treaty has collapsed in complete failure. (That was back in June 2012; that was a complete lie, a perfectly good draft treaty had been written and was a good first step, as these things go). You can read it in plain English: http://www.gunlaws.com/Page9Folder100up/PageNine-114.htm

Part II: The final negotiating conference on the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty has failed to produce a Treaty Text that achieved consensus approval to report to ...

Associated Press CEO Gets His Own Medicine

The lamestream media told you:

By PHILIP ELLIOTT — WASHINGTON (AP)- – The Associated Press’ president and chief executive says the government’s secret seizure of two months of reporters’ phone records has already had a chilling effect on newsgathering, a week after the subpoenas were revealed publicly.

In his first television interviews since the AP reported the Justice Department seizure, Gary Pruitt on Sunday said it has made sources less willing to talk to AP journalists and, in the long ...

A Few Glad Tidings

Burt Prelutsky — Sat, 25 May 2013 21:28:23 +0000

I don’t mind admitting I’m relieved that the Boston bombers were Muslims. While I regret the murders and mutilations committed by the Chechen brothers, I admit I was worried that the mayhem had been perpetrated by native-born Americans. That’s because I am so sick and tired of the politically correct crowd countering legitimate attacks on radical Islam by playing the moral equivalence game every chance they get.

You can bet that if they had been Americans, the liberal pinheads would have ...

Bill Requiring State Agencies to Sell Forfeited Firearms Signed Into Law

Press Release — Fri, 03 May 2013 11:35:08 +0000

Representative Brenda Barton (R-Dist. 6)

STATE CAPITOL, PHOENIX (April 30, 2013) – Late last night, Governor Jan Brewer provided advocates of responsible governance and Second Amendment rights with reason to celebrate.

The bill requires state and municipal agencies to sell unclaimed or forfeited firearms. Once it takes affect, the legislation will preserve valuable property from unwarranted destruction and prohibit the acquisition of firearms for the purpose of disposal ...
