Citizen gun owners: Law enforcement is on your side . . . overwhelmingly!

Wednesday, May 1st, 2013

In March, PoliceOne conducted “the most comprehensive survey ever of American law enforcement officers’ opinions” on the subject of gun control, and the results are stunning. Simply put, law enforcement officers are overwhelmingly of the belief that more gun laws will not help reduce crime, and than guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens will.

This was no small survey, either. Over 15,000 “verified law enforcement professionals” took part, and there were 28 question...

Texas V. Tyranny: Abbott Warns Obama

Sunday, April 28th, 2013

America is in a gunfight. The bad guy government wants to disarm the good guy citizens. The battle: tyranny versus freedom. The Obama government has started the bleeding-out of Constitutional rights and protections for all citizens through its ramped-up attacks and erosions of Constitutional amendments. On patrol at the Constitution’s perimeter are leaders like Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, among others, who refuse to back down and bow to totalitarianism.

Few Americans are aware of the s...

Connecticut Drafts Gun Law In Secret


Sunday, April 14th, 2013

Bans Firearms Public Already Owns

State retains power to own all especially deadly guns
Forces federal agents to either violate state law or deny civil rights
Effectively immediately
That’s not the way networks covered it, is it, but it’s the identical story

by Alan Korwin

Can you imagine what a tough uphill struggle the anti-gun-rights people would have if the “news” media wasn’t falling all over itself to support the anti-rights side?

Connecticut just drafted 138...

Senate reaches deal on federal registry for Stiletto Heels

Thursday, April 11th, 2013

Senate Democrats & Republicans reached an agreement today on terms of a new law requiring the registration of all women’s stiletto-heel shoes.  After months of wrangling over details including the length of the heel, and its material composition, leaders of the upper chamber announced this morning they had arrived at a bill both sides felt could muster the necessary 60 votes to end debate and pass to a floor vote. A major obstacle was overcome when the Republican committee members finally...

Chuck Woolery on Assault Weapons

Thursday, April 4th, 2013

This is one of the more cogent videos on the subject of so-called “assault weapons.” It also happens to be just plain funny. The Ice-T, west coast-east coast thing; the armed lawn gnome; the Henry Waxman crack . . . good times!

Background gun check records are saved (Congress ignored again!)

Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013

By Alan Corwin

The lamestream media told you . . .

It’s only reasonable, and studies show the overwhelming majority of Americans support universal background checks. We’re not talking about registering guns.

The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that . . .

How soon we forget. When the NICS computer was built and turned on by attorney general Janet Reno, in compliance with the Brady bill in 1994, she announced that the system not only would not erase records immediately after a gun-bu...

Comedy skit: Gun Free Zones

Thursday, March 28th, 2013

The essence of a lot of humor is simply this: taking things that people know to be true and talking about them out loud. Sometimes called “observational humor,” this technique has been used by such disparate voices as Andy Rooney and Jerry Seinfeld. People keep using it because it works.

Or, as Fat Tony said, “It’s funny ’cause it’s true.”

Insanity Is a Contagious Disease

Wednesday, March 27th, 2013

You might even say that insanity is a growth industry.  For example, the liberals are tripping all over themselves to pass new gun control legislation.  To prove how sincere they are, they have put Joe Biden and Dianne Feinstein in charge.  Joe Biden is so dumb that schools have renamed dunce caps in his honor, and Feinstein is such a political hack that even after swearing to get to the bottom of the national security leaks to the NY Times, once she realized the footprints led back to the Ov...
