Diane Feinstein: Totalitarian Hypocrite
Posted by Brian in Law, News, Threat Watch on 1/Jan/2013 14:56
If she could she would ban all firearms in spite of the second amendment:
Now is trying to do that with the banning of all weapons with detachable magazines and magazines that hold more than ten rounds:
Here is the example of her hypocrisy. She wants to be able to protect herself but would deny law abiding citizens that ability.
The people that voted this woman into office should be ashamed of themselves. She doesn’t care about the Constitution and any quip about hunting is just lip service for those that support the second amendment. For those NRA members that think it is ok to ban so called “assault weapons”, I would ask you to seriously reconsider your position. Try to envision a United States where these weapons are banned and forbidden to be in anyone’s possession. No one wants to imagine a despot or dictator taking over, but that is sure to happen when the people are unable to defend themselves. It may not happen immediately, it may happen 50 years after, but sooner or later some power hungry person will take advantage of a disarmed populace. What Mrs. Feinstein is attempting to do is lay the foundation of this future United States. On Thursday Jan. 3 she will introduce her legislation.
Of all people Ice T gets it:
Magazine Sales Explode at Brownells
From Guns.com:
To shed some more light on the magazine situation at present, it really has been unprecedented in the last 5 days. During a roughly the 72 hour period from Sunday afternoon to Monday evening we sold the ‘average demand’ equivalent of about 3.5 years worth of PMAGS, and and an even greater amount of our Brownells magazines. We’re working like crazy to get these orders to you as quickly as possible.
Portland Shooter Confronted By Concealed Carry Holder
From KGW.com:
“He was working on his rifle,” said Meli. Â “He kept pulling the charging handle and hitting the side.”
The break in gunfire allowed Meli to pull out his own gun, but he never took his eyes off the shooter.
From The Truth About Guns:
What we now know was the beginning of gunman Jacob Tyler Roberts’s shooting spree came as a complete shock to everyone. Nick, holding young Noah at the time, turned to Casey and said, “Are you serious?!?â€. Casey’s simple answer? “Yesâ€. As Ashley told us, Nick tossed Noah to her and drew his concealed carry weapon in a single motion.
From The Volokh Conspiracy:
On December 11, Jacob Tyler Roberts killed two people at the mall and wounded a third. Nick Meli, who had a concealed carry license, was apparently at the mall, took out his gun, aimed at Roberts, but didn’t shoot because there was someone running across the field of fire. Meli then took cover, and Roberts shot and killed himself.
Court Strikes Down Illinois’s Concealed Carry Law
From Chicago-Sun Times:
In a huge win for gun-rights groups, a divided federal appeals court in Chicago Tuesday tossed the state’s ban on carrying concealed weapons and gave Illinois’ Legislature 180 days to craft a law legalizing concealed carry.
Taurus’s Concealed Carry Campaign
Taurus is promoting concealed carry with it’s Carry On Movement. I like the idea but find it ironic that a company based in Brazil, where it is illegal to own most guns, is actively promoting concealed carry.
Black Friday Sets Gun Sales Record
From Examiner.com:
Last Friday’s gun sales activity overwhelmed the National Instant Check System and provided retailers all over the country with a very green “Black Friday,†but did it also provide government anti-gunners a clue about how to suspend the Second Amendment?
From USAToday:
The FBI fielded 154,873 calls, a roughly 20% increase from last year’s previous one-day record of 129,166, according to bureau records.
From Market Daily News:
Fueled by fears that the Obama administration will go after gun rights during a lame duck term, the FBI reported 154,873 background check requests on Friday – a 20 per cent increase on last year’s record total of 129,166 checks.
The number of guns sold could actually be double or more that figure because only one background check is recorded per sale even if buyers purchase multiple firearms.
Hypocrite Mayors Against Guns
Posted by Brian in Law, News, Threat Watch on 28/Nov/2012 08:05
From The Washington Times:
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) on Monday detailed the crimes that have been committed by members of Mr. Bloomberg’s gang, Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG). In its research, SAF found a significantly higher rate of felonious activity among the mayors who teamed up with hizzoner than among the 8 million citizens who are licensed to carry concealed firearms.
Iowa CCW Permits Double in One Year
Iowa passed a “shall issue” law in 2010 and in 2011 the number of permits doubled.
Wyoming Gun Sales, CHLs Increase
From Billings Gazette:
In fiercely independent, outdoors-loving Wyoming, a re-election of President Barack Obama could bring a windfall to gun shop owners.
Additionally, the state’s number of concealed-firearm permits through September of this year is higher than in previous years despite a new law allowing carrying without a permit. And the number is expected to only increase.
“Violence” Tax for Firearms
From Cheaper Than Dirt Blog:
Cook County Board President, Toni Preckwinkle, recently floated the proposal for a Violence Tax. This new and unwarranted tax seeks to target the sale of guns and ammunition sold in the City of Chicago and its suburbs.
Ted Nugent on Armed American Radio
Interview here.
Emily Miller interview on Fox News
Emily Miller has written a multi part column on how difficult it is to get a gun in Washington, D.C.
“Hot” Weapons on the Range
From USA Carry:
I know that some would say (and have) that training a client to shoot and move with a loaded firearm is unsafe. Yet I would argue that not training a client to shoot and move safely with a loaded firearm does more harm than it does good, as doing so only transfers the training risk from the relative safety of the range to the much more hazardous real world environment where the safety net is not present. In the end, I would say that training and learning to safely move with a loaded firearm is safer than not training to safely move with a loaded firearm.
