This Just In...

Tommy Thompson doesn't want to get chipped after all.

Tommy Thompson

He just wants to make money off you getting the implant.

NY Cops Call For Hollow Point Ban

"Our mission is to stop violent felons," said Patrolmen's Benevolent Association President Patrick Lynch. "There is no reason for anyone else to have that ability."

Do you get the feeling this creature must have devoured some of his weaker litter mates while in utero?

How does a nation conceived in liberty produce such monstrous deformities?

Judge to Thug Deputy: Keep Your Gun

A Cocke County Sheriff's deputy pleaded guilty Monday to depriving a drug suspect of his civil rights, but will still be able to carry his service weapon, a judge ruled....Smith and other officers found an additional amount of cash in the vehicle and split it among themselves.

Makes sense. How can he commit armed robbery if he's not armed?

We all know that, with a government monopoly of power, competing criminal enterprises will not be tolerated.

It's a gang thing.

Tell me one of us relieving a man of his money under force of arms would only be charged with a misdemeanor.

Newark Under Rule of Lawless

Few props carry the impact of a semiautomatic assault rifle. So on June 9, 1999, when Mayor Sharpe James announced that Newark would sue gun manufacturers to recover the costs of gun violence, the mayor picked up an AK-47 rifle.

"It's immoral and unconscionable that you can purchase a weapon of destruction over the counter like popcorn and ice cream," James said as he gripped the rifle...

In fact, Newark has provided more than 1,500 firearms to gun dealers who in turn sell the used weapons over the counter. Like most New Jersey cities, Newark trades in used police weapons to dealers who provide a large discount when the city buys new police guns. It's as legal as selling popcorn.

Lies from the mayor and lies from the paper, implying there are no more controls or restrictions in place than are required for a popcorn purchase. James' little media stunt was conducted 9 years after New Jersey's "assault weapons" ban was enacted (gee, must've worked real well), and those don't go back into the general population--at least through the official set of books (check out the entry for "Aug. 23"). But what do we expect?

Just do a Google search on "sharpe james" and "corruption".

This third world thug is why the Framers included a government correction clause in the Bill of Rights.

Marijuana User Can Keep Gun Permit

A Washington County judge ruled that a Beaverton man can hold a concealed handgun permit despite being a medical marijuana user.

This ruling can't make NRA management very happy. After all, one of their talking points attacking George Soros is that:
Soros has given many millions of dollars to finance pro-marijuana initiative campaigns. He has been called "the Daddy Warbucks of drug legalization," by former Democratic Cabinet Member Joseph Califano.

Any government strong enough to go after drug users is strong enough to go after gun owners. I've never understood the affinity of "conservatives" to support prohibition.
